How nryan was ISnifea.

How BRYAN Was Iknifed.
An associated press dispatch from Chi
cago states:
as the complete returns from various
states are received, the proof is conclu-
siye that both the populists In the west
and the Democrats in the east and south
cut the Bryan ticket to Its death.
Alschuler in Illinois ran $4,000 ahead
OF Bryan, but in proportion to the vote
cast the ifference between the state and
national ticket in Illinois did not COM
pare with that Of Washington.
Mckinley has carried Washington by a
1900 majority, but the election for gov
ernor is so close that the full returns
must come In before the election is de-
cided.
In Minnesota Lind ran $4,000 votes
ahead OF Bryan, and Stanchfleld Of New
York did the same.
In Connecticut, where the gold Demo
Gratis abound, the state ticket ran 10000
ahead Of the national ticket.
In North Dakota, where Pepulists are
to be found in comparative abundance,
there is difference Of 1000 in favor OF
the state ticket.
In Nebraska he was cut by Populists
who voted for Poynter. a
In Virginia and Massachusetts the
same comparison could be made.
Bryan was cut in Kansas and South
Dakota. The free silver voters in Utah
and Idaho divided between Bryan and
Mckinley.
The exceptions are Kentucky and Mis-.
souri, In Kentucky the conditions were
such that Beckham was expected to. run
10000 votes behind Bryan. The Repub.
lican fight was made for Yerkes, splen-
did citizen and popular man. The diff.
ference between the Beckham and Bryan
vote is small. and is scarcely taken into
account.
All ofthese things appear in the cleo
tion returns, aud convey their own argu
ment in every section of the country.

Pettigrew is q Jonah. -GRAPHIC.
When the Index advocates and pro-
notes horse in the race it is never SO
ungrateful as to refuse TO ofollow him
to the barn.-Index.
That's all right; nobody said you were.
A barn is a proper place for an ass as
well as horse. The GRAPHIC never
"promoted" nor "advocated" Pettigrew.
1t gave its best efforts, 'tis true, to the
election of a Democratic. or fusion, leg
islature- and which 1t is to be admitted
was more than likely to return Petit
grew-but such action was on them, not
us. We never liked Pettigrew as a Re-
publican and he hasn't won our admir-
|'ation since turning a Populist st-not so
much for any particular act, but as a
man we don't like his type in the United
States senate--no matter where they
come from or what party they represent
but 1t becomes necessary sometimes to
accept Of the lesser of two evils.
