SEATTLE GNss CHEER TO NATION

In the recent city election in Seattle, the Cleveland Leader sees text for a short but very enoeriol discourse on national politics, It says, pscifc coast cities were hit very hard bv the panic. They had been going ahead under high pressure and the jolt of the sudden checking down was severe. Their booms collapsed, in large measure, and some oi their cherished bopes were bsuished to the uncertain and distant future,
 Hence it might be expected that the coas, cities, all the way from Los An Seles and San Diego, to Seattle and Tacoma, would show especially strong signs oi discontent aud political unrest this year. That would have been the orvious logic oi the situation. But 1t seems the facts are quite different
 Seattle, the largest city north Of San Francisco, west oi tbe Rockies had a muuiclple election this week, There was an attempt to unite the clements o, di,cou,eut aud all the enemies Of the republican party and opponents of its principles in a"Chy party" Tho plan was looked upon ss means of turing many voters who could uot be induced to vote the democratic ticket Tue democrats practically fused with the new organization, Their own. nom- Iueo poled ooly about 800 votes.
 But the scheme did not work 10 any jmpr, ssive extent Inc republican candidate for mayor was elected by about 5,COO votes Ia city which does not c,st more that 25,Ooo lu presidential years
 This straw shows how quite gale Is blowing. U uookS the hopes which arc being built upon bard times by antI.rcpubicau lesdsrs, It shows what the Brysuitss rud tbe socialists have to expect In Ihc section where they might mos, reasonably hone for Galus,
