The Voting In MARYLAND.

The result OF the voting in Maryland is
still in doubt, with both parties claiming to
have secured majority of the legislature
which will elect Senator Wellington's sue
cessor. 1t is not necessary, however, to
wait for the formal declaration of the re-
suit to enable a fair-minded person to dis
Germ the utter worthlessness of the new
election agency provided under the amend
ed suffrage law passed at the behest and
in the interest of Mr.. German. From pres
ent indications fully one-fourth of the votes
cast yesterday in the state have been
thrown out by election judges for alleged
informalities. This of itself is strong in
dictment against the new election law
Again, without reference to the matter of
the fraudulent manipulation of the official
ballots to deceive the voters in certain To-
calities, 1t is evident that the present de-
vice Is inadequate as safe medium Of
popular expression of political will AL
most twenty-four hours after the vote was
cast the result, even in so compact and
easily canvassed a state as Maryland, is
uncertain because Of the absence OF the re-
turns from many of the counties. The new
ballot is difficult to tally, and this fact
while arguing IN itself against its further
use as convenient effective voting
agency. opens the way to unlimited frauds
in the holding back of returns. 1t is a
reversal to the old times, when often
days elapsed before the count was to be
had from certain sections
Whatever the result of the voting. as for.
mally and finally declared, it is seIf-eyident
that the new law has shown itself a
wretched failure as a means of recording
the VIII Of the people of the commonwealth
1t may prove temporarily the effective tool
OF ambitious, unscrupuIous partisans, but
1t cannot long remain the choice of intelI-
gent Maryland unless that state has lost
its sense of political proportion and it's
grasp of the public moralities.

CrOker's Future,

Varying reports are to be had as to the
intentions of Richard Croker One account
describes him as full of fight. Another de-
clares that he is to return at once to Eng
land and to take up his permanent resi-
dence there, having last night formally alb
dicated his power in Tammany In favor of
John F. Carroll. The latter statement Is
more in line with the general estimates ex-
pressed prior to the election on the assump-
pulse has of late years been distinctly anti
American even in the hours Of his success
During the past three years he has spent
more than half the time abroad. His in
terests in England are constantly increas-
ing. His grasp on the New York situation
has now been broken. He Is rich enough
to enjoy life at ease and amidst the horsy
atmosphere he loves. He has tendencies
which are fattered by the flavor of royalty
he occasionally sniffs at the English tracks
The people round about Vantage do not
understand his status at home He NAV
consequently become in time a very large
parsonage In their eyes.
But there is another reason why 1t is felt
to be likely that Croker will choose a for
eign residence. for a time at least, now
that he has been routed so decisiveiy in
this great fight Living in New York he

the man whom Croker tried desperately to
elect. Notwithstanding the Tammany
tricks played against him and the sris-
pected republican apathy toward him in
consequence of his retracted denunciation
of Piatt, Jerome ran ahead Of Low in New
York county by from two to three thou
sand votes. His canvass was the cause of
an awakening striking as that produced
by DIR. Parkhurst's crusade of 1884.
Jerome did better work for decent govern
ment even than Parkhurst. His raids and
Investigations brought the iniquities of the
Tammany government more squarely home
II the common people than did the costly
Lcxow inquiry which paved the way to the
defeat of Tammany in 1894. He went after
Individuals in a manner to leave no doubt
in the fair mind as to their guilt. He ex-
posed the horrors of the cadet system of
propagating vice and did not hesitate to
give the details of the awful traffic to mixed
audiences in the fashionable districts He
ridiculed the lackadaisical reform methods
of the rich theorists to their very faces and
won their applause. He aroused the moral
sense of New York in all classes, save those
hopelessly corrupted by Tammany held
under the tyranny of its threats, as per-
haps it was never aroused before.
Perhaps in this Jerome did his best work
for the positive regeneration of the city,
although he is now in line for some seri-
Gus corrective business which will be felt,
it is to be hoped, by the evil doers. Prose-
cutions may now follow with a chance of
punishment resulting. No man who has
worked the great graft during the past
few years Is today safe from dangerous
scrutiny. The fate of Tweed has suddenly
acquired a dread significance to the cor
ruptionists who have heretofore reveled in
their machine-made immunity.
With an honest mayor tied to no political
organization, a board of estimates COM
posed of men of both parties, and pledged
to further the welfare of the community,
and a prosecuting officer without fear and
with abundant energy and capacity, New
York is in a fair way to have not only
good government for the next four years,
but to learn so thoroughly the blessings of
its rescue from the clutches Of Tammany
that this corrupt organization may never
again be able to faSten itself upon the
treasury of the city and the private purses
of the people.

The National Result.

Yesterdays returns in their national as
we'll as local aspect. must be very gratify-
ing to the republicans. They nave ma
tionaI aspect, despite the fact that. with
the exception of the campaigns in Iowa and
Nebraska. the democratic campaigns every
where were fought on state issues. The
utmost effort was made to ignore Mr..
Bryan and his platform and persuade the
people that they need consider nothing but
their local affairs. But with equal vigor
the republicans pressed the national issues
upon the attention of the people and asked
for verdict which would at once indorse
all that had been done in the past four
years and encourage the doing of what re-
manned to be done in order to carry the
republican policies to a logical conclusion
We have the verdict. and if it means any,
thing it means that the policies of sound
money and protection are still approved,
and that the accomplished fact of terri
torial expansion is still without the slight
est terror for those who feel confidence in
American institutions. 1t will strengthen
th, hand of the President, and operate as
fresh instructions to the Congress about to
assemble. 1t is fresh wreath laid on the
grave at Canton.
The question of the hour is reciprocity
left as legacy by Mr.. Mckinley to his
party and to the country. 1t must be met
in a straightforward manner. and so AS to
produce results from which the whole
country will benefit. Observe how the re-
publicans of Iowa recorded themselves. In
their platform they had laid marked stress
on reciprocity, and their speakers in the
campaign had addressed themselves to the
subject with the utmost candor and par
tiCularity. At the polls yesterday the re-
publican state ticket received plurality of
nearly a hundred thousand votes-a figure
never before reached in the state in any
year for any issue. Should not this have
great weight with the republican national
leaders in the matter of legislation the
coming winter? If it fails of that effect,
will not the result be likely to tell against
the party in the congressional elections of
next year?
These continued Endorsements of the re-
publican policies but make the RESPONSE
bility of that party the greater, ard en-
phasize the necessity of continued united
action by it's leaders The country is not
standing still. Neither can the leaders of
that party afford to stand still. Let we'll
enough alone is a cry that might easily
be used to the party's as we'll as 10 the
country's detriment. The better cry Is to
push good thing forward, and to profit
to the full by a golden opportunity

The defeat administered yesterday to
Tammany Hall was complete and decisive
In practically every direction the Tigers
forces were routed. What little was saved
from the general generalization only serves
today TO emphasize the completeness of
the defeat. With a fusionist mayor and
other city officers, a fusionist district at
torney and fuSionist majority in the
BOARD of estimate and appropriation, the
outlook for decent government In the me-
fropolis for the next four years Is bright
endeed- The conquest of Tammany will not
OF course. be wholly satisfactory unless it
includes the election of a fusionist ma
1orlty IN the board of aldermen, which is at
present in some doubt, with the chances
apparently slightly fayoring the reform
srs- But even Tammany aldermanic ma
1orlty cannot check the reform impulse In
its best effects.
Lows majority is comfortable IL not In
dicative of a landslide. There is some rea.
son for encouragement in the absence ~ a
sign of a tremendous revulsion of polit;ca1
feeling. Such great changes of sentiment
are often followed by equal reactions a
normal anti-Tammany sentiment in tho
greater city Is more likely to be maintained
than spasmodic antipathy. For the great
problem in New York is not so much the
election of an anti-Tammany mayor this
year as 1t is the incubation of a perma-
nent spirit OF good government In the aver
age citizen. A long educational process is
entailed which Is best furthered by moder-
ate. successive victories over the enemy

Mr.. Chamberlain's Mistake.

/ When Mr.. Chamberlain, in his Edinburgh
| speech few days ago, replied to Russian
| and German and French criticism Of Great
| Brtain's operations in South Africa by re-
/ ferring to the performances of those coun-
| tries in Poland, in Tonquin and elsewhere.
| The Star expressed the opinion that the de-
| liverance was unwise. 1t seemed to be
| making unnecessarily an issue with those
| countries. The criticism was of individ-
| ual nature. 1t did not pretend to speak for
government at all. AS a matter of fact
| the czar, the kaiser and President Loubet
| have held aioof from the whole pro-Boer
| agitation. Great Britain has nothing what
| ever to complain of so far they are con-
cerned, and there was no good reason why
Mr. Chamberlain member of the British
government. should go out of his way to
take up a matter of individual opinion.
Why, SO long as it went no further, should
| he reply in a sort of official way to news
paper nagging in st. Petersburg, Berlin and
Paris about horrors charged against British
arms in the war with the Beers?
The expected has taken place. Where
there was one critic before, there are two
now. Mr.. Chamberlain's words are very
warmly resented in all three countries, and
by many people who had not been stirred
by the South African situation. In Ger
many particularly there is considerable
show Of feeling, Notwithstanding the excel
lent relations that exist between the kaiser
and his uncle in England. The Germans do
not relish the dragging of their country
into such a controversy in so nncalied-for
a fashion. and they are expressing them
selves on the subject with vigor. Their
heat is said 70 be causing some surprise in
England.
The less attention England pays to out
side comment on her course in South AZ
rica, provided It does not take on the as
pect of a protest of government, the better
1t will be for her. She has very difficult
and disagreeable piece Of work on hand,
and she need expect no sympathy. She will
be certain indeed not to receive any from
those countries which have in their time
had something OF similar experience with
enemies in the field and at last crushed
them by force. The powerful nations are
all living in glass houses. Not one OF them
can obey the divine injunction and cast the
first stone at another on that subject. AS
for unofficial sentiment here and there,
that cannot be controlled. 1t is sometimes
genuine and sometimes not. In the matter
of the Beers there Is reason to believe that
much of the sympathy for them simply
means hatred of England and that Ii they
would have awakened next to no interest
at all outside of the immediate locality Of
the contest

ferviews as the fusion government estab-
fishes itself. He will remain the chief to
the loyal Tammanyftes even though he for
mafiy hands over the power to Carroll. He
cannot escape being regarded as the main
spring of Tammany activity whatever his
desires. He cannot keep wholly out of
public view. He will be within reach of
the long arm of the law, available as a
witness before an investigating body or a
grand jury. even as defendant in Grim
inal proceedings. Out of the country he
will be in a large measure out of mind.
The ocean will be a barrier to easy judicial
procedure.
Richard Croker is not a fool, whatever
else he is. He is now fifty-eight years old
and in good health. He has learned that
life holds other pleasures than those of
politics He has squeezed a fortune out of
the New York taxpayers and has acquired
tastes which he can now crafty. Why,
'then should he pass his remaining years In
harness as a political leader who has suf-
fered two great defeats with a chance of
losing all future battles, and in constant
danger of prosecution for completely in
frauds closely connected with his fortune,
when he can as easily slip out of the line
of fire, remove himself to a safe distance
with his loot and live henceforth happily
and securely as a man of Importance?
Ite has shown by his years of vile work
in New York, first as heeler and then as
lieutenant and later as boss of one Of the
most corrupt political machines this coun-
try has ever known, that he is utterly in
different to public opinion. He Is not likely
now, after such career, to be thin skinned
in the matter Of the public's estimate of
him as gutter or a dodger. What will he
care If his old associates charge him with
running off to enjoy his spoils while the
courts are busy with his former underlings,
through whose subservient criminal enter
prise he has amassed his fortune?
