Valentine Democrat. (Valentine, Neb.) 1900-1930, 1905-11-09

The contest is over and those
who care for pOst-mortems have
no difficulty in finding a subject.
When the campaign opened there
were those who thought the demo-
Gratis were leading a forlorn hope,
nor were they confined to either
party. Many democrats believing
the claims of the opposition, that
Cherry county was overwhelming
ly republican, lost hope. Many
republicans, misled by their own
captains, believed the democratic
organization dead and that the
democrats were forming funeral
march. They were alike surprised
at the result last Tuesday. They
have found that in the democratic
lexicon there is no such word as
fail' and that what they mistook
for a funeral march was triumph
ial procession.
What has brought about the
change? There are a number of
reasons.
In the first place, the republican
majority has never been so large
as the managers of the party have
claimed. Every man who has
watched conditions. know that the
democrats were not satisfied with
the work of the last democratic
national convention. When the
Wall street crowd got control Of
the national convention and nomi-
mated candidate of their own
choice. they did just what the re-
publican bosses in Cherry county
did this year-they alienated many
of the most progressive and in
fuential of their members. Many
democrats went to the polls and
voted the republican ticket; many
others stayed to home. The result
was republican majority far in
excess of the real party strength.

ranted them in making a canvass
there is every reason to believe
they would have been elected.
Judge Towne's election was
conceded from the first. The only
danger to him lay in the POSSIBLE
ity that his friends might be over
confident, and, becoming interest
ed in the sharper contests, fail to
get him his vote. But it seems
that his friends never forget him
and he come through with big
ger majority than before.
The real fight was on sheriff
and treasurer. For sheriff each
party put up competent, vigor-
Gus and aggressive candidate and
for this Office the fiercest fight was
fought. Mr.. Savage had the ad-
vantage in party strength, but Mr..
Simons had the advantage of a
united party, a long residence in
the county and wide circle of
friends. In addition to this he
has a genial personality and the
happy faculty of making friends,
accounts for his substantial ma
jority.
The returns on treasurer show
the election of Quible by one ma
jority. When the campaign open
ed few people in the eastern half
of the county had heard of Mr..
Quible, but he was we'll known in
the western part and it was here
that he rolled up majorities never
dreamed of before. Think of a
democrat getting thirty-eight ma
jority in Merriman precinct! We
have been saying from week to
week that where he was known
party ties would be broken and his
friends would attest his worth-
The returns fulfill our prophesy.
Study them for yourself.
Beyond settling the individual
struggle for public favor the cleo
ton is of the greatest Importance.
1t puts an end to blind subservient
partisanship. The vote given
Quible by the republicans of Mer-
riman and the precincts adjacent,
and the vote given Kelley by the
democrats at large shows that
party lines are broken; that here
after the people will have their
way. Never again will a party
organ publish the party majority
of the year before as its leading
editorial. Think of it! What an
argument it was. I'VE have the
votes. Look at our majority"
We met this bluff and buster with
the statement that we had the men
fitted for the places to be filled.
That we had the men the people
wanted. And the figures show
that we were right.
