was removed from his precarious po-

by the feet. One Of the large veins
in his ear was severed and an almost
continual flow Of blood for four hours
resulted. He is very weak but will

MILESTONES OF VICTORY
Election Results Foreshadow Downfall!
of Standpatters.

OF Standpatters.
How crestfallen the standpatterS
must feel under the startling series Of
defeats they have sustained since the
new tariff was passed! They have
had nothing but kicks this year so far.
The first chastisement was admins
tered by the Sixth Missouri district
which on Feb. l showed the temper
of the constituency by re-electing a
Democrat with an enormous majority.
Several weeks afterward came the
Fourteenth Massachusetts district cleo
ton, which converted IL Republican
plurality of 1900 into a Democratic
plurality of nearly G,O00 a month
afterward we had the Rochester cleo
ton. which wiped out Republican
plurality of 10000 and gave the Dem
ocrats plurality of 5000. Vermont
and Maine have since spoken. and
their verdict has sent shudder
through the broken and tottering
ranks Of the once proud and defiant
party of log rollers and privilege sell
erS.
Again, there is the splendid success
Of Senator La Toilette in the WiScon-
sin primaries and the success Of the
insurgents everywhere. Who can
doubt what it all means? 1t means
the return to power at an early date
of majority of representatives pledg-
ed to undo the dishonest work which
the stand pat element perpetrated last
session. The responsible leaders know
this and feel it keenly. They know.
despite the feeble sophistry of their
apologists in the press, that this is no
local revolt 1t is the uprising Of an
awakened people against their dis
credited rulers.
