CuIberSOn.

WASHINGTON.-A wide gap was made In
the Democratic ranks in the senate when Arthur
Pue German, of Maryland, died a few days ago.
There have been few more forcefu1 characters
among the Democrats in that body He grew up
with the senate; knew all its traditions and le-
garded it the greatest legislative body In tao
world. For many years Mr.. German was the
real as well as titular leader on the Democratic
side of the senate. 1t his genius that thought
out political schemes and it was his management
that secured for the Democrats the most there
was in the situation. His place will be difficult to
FILL as there are few men of his temperament and
sagacity now on the minority side Of the senate.

THE SUICIDE OF REPRESENTATIVE ADAMS.

The recent suicide of Representative Adams
of Pennsylvania, is the first instance, so far as is
known. of a member of the house taking his own
life few years ago Representative Chickering
of New York, found lifeless ON the sidewalk
outside hotel in New York city having fallen
from his bedroom window. 1t was always a
doubt whether he fell by accident threw him
self out with suicidal intent There was no doubt
however, about BERTHE" Adams act and it stands
unique In the history of congress Away back in
war times Senator Lane, of Kansas, committed
suicide during recess of congress, but aside
from his case and that of Mr.. Adams there is no
authentic record of any other member of either
house having taken his life.

WISCONSIN.

Gov. Davidson. with the Republican
State ticket, was elected in Wisconsin.
The Governors plurality is upward of
co. 900. and the remainder Of the State
ticket but little behind, this OF one Of
the lishtest votes ever cast. From the
returns it is apparent that not much over
a two-thirds vote was cast. The apa-
thetic conditions noted before the election
were too pronounced to be overcome by
the State central committees. The returns
from the legislative districts indicate the
Republicans will have about the same
number in each house as they have had
for the past six years. which gives them
an overwhelming majority. In Milwau-
kee District Attorney McGovern w.s re-
elected by a little more than 100 plural
ity. This was the most bitterly fought
contest in the State. MeGovern was de-
feated for the Republican nomination at
the primaries and ran as an Independent
against Boden. his successful competitor.
The surprising thing in the contest was
the strength shown by the Social Demo
cratic candidate Thicl. and until the final
figures were received it looked as though
he had won. Complete returns for Mil

Criminal Court.
Probably the most notable utterance
by Judge Gary was that on the SEN
fencing Of the anarchists, some of
whom were hanged Nov. II, 1887. He
said in part:
The people of the country love thel
institutions. They love their homes. They
love their property. They will never con.
sent that by violence and murder those
institutions shall be broken down, their
homes despoiled and their property de.
stroyed. And the people are strong enough
to protect and sustain their institutions
and to punish all offenders against their
laws; and those who threaten danger ia
civil society, if the law is enforced, are
leading to destruction whoever may at.
tempt to execute such threats.
The existing order of society can be
changed only by the will of the majority.
