Chairman c. f. Quail who labored indie
fatigueably for the success Of the Republican
ticket in the campaign Just closed, is not
backward in offering deserved admenitiou
for the defeat Of portion Of the ticket il this
county on Tuesday. In speaking on the sub
ject he said
The Republican party in SchuylkiI
county was Tuesday taught lesson from
which it should profit. 1t has been demon
strated that when good men are placed on the
ticket they can be elected where there is
unity of purpose and prevalence of harmony
within the party ranks. 1t is in evidence
and the registration books Of the county show
it, that there is normal Republican tendency
among its voters but with each recurring
election there arises that same hydra headed
monster Of jealousy, petty prejudice and per-
sonal yilifcation and ayaTice which means
certain ignOminous defeat to the true princi-
Piles Of the Republican party, which, in this
instance, was the means Of defeating our able
candidate for Judge, Hon. d. c. Henning
There Is lacking that unauimity which
must alone serve to the end Of winning in
Schuylkill county. What some build up
Others would attempt 10 tear down, aud in
consequence there is the repeated, ineffective
display Of these conditions. Pretending
party leaders resort to personal vilifcauon,
slander, and party sacrifice owing to a satiate
desire to get even, or with an apparent eager
ness for personal or political selfaggrandize-
ment. What the Republican party needs in
Schuylkill county in the future as in the
past, is Capitalization Of purpose, a greater
prevalence of harmonious and concerted
action. 1t wants 10 rid itself of these con.
tamineting influences, and victory will
| perch on its banners with each renewed effort
| And in this connection / would not
exempt the press. We need more aggressive
( Republican organs, free and untrammeled
expOnents Of the cause which will stand
| shoulder to shoulder with the party and It's
chairman. Had the Republican press in
schuylkiIl county entered upon the ad-
vocacy Of the entire ticket earlier in this
campaign the result to-day might be more
| gratifying. On the other hand / contend
that greater consideration should be shown
the press by the party, and the newspapers
which ars loyal to the cause given the just
recognition their energetic efforts in our be-
half entities them"

Martin at the sacrifice Of Ferguson But
there is a day Of reckoning"
The Pottsvile Chronicle, the Democratic
mouth-piece, sizes up the situation in this
manner "A sure Republican or a sure
Democratic vote in schuylkill county is q
thing Of the past The strong man on the
day after the nominating convention Of
either party may be defeated on election day
while the weak man on convention day may
turn up the strong man in November. This
truth was fully exempliied yesterday but
the story which the Chronicle is compelled to
tell to-day story Of disappointment
might have been much more cheering TO
/ Democracy had the management Of the party
/ been less exclusive"
| The Chronicle is correct The result Is
/ disappointment to the Democrats in more
/ ways than one Besides losing the most inn
/ portant offices, politically, the one man the
{ rahid free silver men were anxious TO see de.
feated was elected by a large majority. That
man is George J. wsdlinger, the Judge-elect.
/ That is the most bitter pill Of all, aud shows
conclusively that the silverites in the Demo
cratic party, or rather their self styled
leaders, cut very little figure in the political
arena in this county.
While the Democrats have their troubles
the Republicans also have grievances Messrs.
4 Brumm and Whitehouse come in for the
greatest share Of censure. Ii is well known
that Brumm was interested particularly in
the election of Henning and Berger while
I Whitehouse's especially fsvorite was Doer-
a

house requested his Republican friends mot
to be too hard on Eiehter." the Democratic
candidate. So you see, dear reader, many
sores have been left as result of Tuesday s
election. which will take long while to
heal.
