DEMOCRACY OUT OF FAVOR.

Whatever may be the feeling of
the people regarding the President,
il seems fair to assume that they
have little sympathy with his party.
Following hard upon the heels of
the special election in the First New
Hampshire Congressional district.
where Republican supremacy was
maintained in the face of a strong
Democratic drive" the Sixth India
ma district voted. with an increased
majority. to retain Republican repre-
sentation in Washington.
In each canvass the issue present
ed was the same; in each district
the response was identical. There
is no disposition TO extend to the
Democratic party the favor and sup
port which exceptional reasons unite
to secure for a Democratic Presid-
cut. 1t is evident that the Americ-
an people have little use for the
Democratic party.
The lesson of these two special
elections should not be lost upon the
