•'THE poor man with his little dinner pail," the farmer, the merchant and the manufacturer all talked on Tuesday, and everybody understood what they said.
TWEI.VE out of the fifteen Congressmen from Missouri will be Republicans. The pukes puked up the Democracy in goood shape. They gave 10,000 to the Republican State ticket and carried the Legislature. The solid South is broken.
AMONG the duties of the incoming Republican Legislature will be to make a fair apportionment for Congressional and Legislative "purposes and to place the benevolent and penal institutions under bi-partisan or non-parti-san control.
THE men who voted for Cleveland in 1892, relying on the Democratic promise of high wages and cheap foreign goods, have found out that the two things do not go together. They have the cheap goods but they have not the wages with which to buy them.
THE Argentine Republic is an exam pie of the ruin that comes from financial heresies like those upheld by the Populists of this country. The circu lation per capita in Argentine is somewhere between 8200 and S300, and there is still a lould clamor for more Business is stagnant, the country bankrupt and destitution prevails throughout the length and breadth of the land.
THE Chicago TrUjune says the Ameri can manufacturers, and merchants and business men generally will draw along breath of relief. 'They are safe from molestation during the next Con gress. They can go on with their business without fear of destructive tariff changes in the near future. They will feel that they do not have to wade through two more years of strikes and every other form ol industrial discon tent. And seeing that the working men are alive to their real interests this year the business men have rea son to hope that those workingme will show equal good sense two year: hence.
COMMENTING on the result the St Louis Qlobe Democrat says that this great Republican rising will be a man date from the people to the Democracy to take its hand off the tariff immed ately. The popgun bills which passed the House a few months ago will never go through the Senate, and the others which the Democrats of the Hoi'ise tlieatened to pass will never see the light of day. The war against the Nation's productive interests and activities is ended. Trade will have a chance to adjust itself to the new conditions, the financial clouds will be dispersed and the shackles with which the Democracy bound commerce will be broken. The election is a glorious victory lor the country. It means improved business, renewed progress and abundant prosperity.
INDIANA'SVOTE.
"The Republican plurality at this election in this State according to present indications," says the Indianapolis News, "will be the largest plurality of any election since Indiana was
State. At the first Presidential election for Adams, Jackson, and Clay in 1824, Jackson's plurality over Clay was 018. It is interesting to give all of the figures in this election. For Adams there were 3,095 votes for Jackson, 343 for Clay, 5,315. In 1828, Jackson's plurality over Adams was 4,585. In 1832, Jackson's plurality over Clay was 10,080. In 1833 Harrison's plurality over Van Buren was 8,801. In 1840 Harrison's plurality over Van Buren was 13,067. In 1844, Polk's plurality over Clay was 2,314. In 1848, Cass' plurality over Taylor was 4,838. In 1852, Pierce's plurality over Scott was 14,439. In 1856, Buchanan's pluarality over Fremont was 24,295. In 1800, Lincoln's plurality over Douglas was 3,524. In 1864. Lincoln's plurality over°McClellan was 20,189. In 1868, Grant's plurality over Seymour was 568. In 1872, Grant's plurality over Greeley was 22,515. In 1876, Tilden's plurality over Haves was 5,515. In 1880 Garfield's plurality over Hancock was 6,642. In 1SS4, Cleveland's plurlity over Blaine was 6,527. In 1S38, Harrison's plurality over Cleveland was 2,694. In 1892, Cleveland's plurality over Harrison was 7,195."
HENRY WATTERSON is always interesting and entertaining and his opinion of the late landslide is particularly
He philosophizes as follows: With the record of "perfidy and dishonor," as Mr. Cleveland aptly described it, to face' and defend in a hand-to-hand fight with the united Republicans, led by Harrison, McKinley and Reed, it was disheartening for Democrats to have to face also the dull self-sufficiency and stolid indifference fan administration that made no sign, uttered no word, and, at least the State of New York, seemed to desire the defeat of the regular Democratic nominees. We shall see whether there is-Democracy enough left of the true and blue stripe to make a great coat good against all weather or whether we must still wear a coat of many colors, covering not a homogeneous party inspired by faith and truth, but a mere bundle of factions thrown together by the upheaval of the times. The Republicans have made the issue that the Democrats cannot successfully govern the country. Upon the lines of our recent experience, it would seem that at least the men we have at the front cannot. At any rate that seems to be the opinion of a majority of the voters.
Before the election Mr. Watterson said something about "inarching through a slaughter house to an open grave." There is some consolation in being a good prophet.
THE Frankfort Crcxecnt, a Democratic paper, has inaugurated a war on the Australian ballot law. It says:
Within the lonely secret booth more corruption lurks than it is possible to practice in the old fashioned way by the voter handing his ballot in the presence of many witnesses to the election inspector. Even the enthusiasts of the law who are costantly holding up to view the secret ballot, are forced to admit that the law is no longer a bar to vote buying and all the venalty practiced under the old law. The many devices of the boodler and boodled, through and by which a corrupt ballot can be cast under the cloak secrecy, grows more alarming at every election." Probably all the attacks that will be made on the law will come from Democrats. THE JOURNAL is of the opinion that the law has come to stay. It should be amended in a few particulars but theosystem will stand. The law should^be simplified and made less complex to the voter. While it may not prevent boodling, yet we believe it reduces the -evil to its mini-
PLYMOTH Democrat: THE CRAWFORDSVILLE JOURNAL has issued a souvenir edition celebrating its 45th year. It is profusely illustrated, elegantly printed and contains brief sketches of the early history of Crawfordsville, its business interests and future prospects The publication is creditable to the "art preservative," and is an honor to the publishers.
A FARMER living near the city reports that on Wednesday a fiock of geese passed over his place going South and they were all honking songs of rejoicing. One of them had a small American fiag tied to its foot, the supposition being that it was carrying good news to the beautiful and sunny Southland.
THE New York 'Tribune remarks that Chairman Wilson, when he looks into a mirror after reading the returns, must blush for the man who had the nerve to go over to England only six weeks ago and tell the Britons that Protection was dead in America.
THK Greencastle Banner-Times asked Dr. Ridpatli what he thought of the election and the results. lie puzzled himself a minute and answered: "The South wind searches for the iiowers
Whose fragrance late hs bore, And sighs to find them in the woods And by the streams no more."
OH, for heaven's sake give us a rest on these Republican victories. If this thing keeps on, there won't be anything to kick or jump on in 1896. Let the under dog have a show.
THE I.ESSON OF NOVKMBER 6,180-1. The result of the late election was a suprise to most of the voters of all parties. And yet, had the 'political history of the country been well understood, almost any one might have foretold just what has happened. A new generation has grown up from childhood almost to middle age since there was any serious attempt to overthrow our long-maintained system of protection. While it is an undeniable fact that every attempt to establish free trade principles in this country has resulted in disaster, the people did not know it, and could not be made to believe it until actual experience opened their eyes to vacant factories, a waning commerce, millions of idle workmen begging for bread, and a general stagnation in all the business affairs of the country. The business conditions which followed, immediately, the inauguration of Mr. Cleveland upon a platform which denounced every form of protection, whether direct or incidental, -as unconstitutional, were the natural result of the departure from a policy by which the business affairs of the country had been regulated from the beginning of the government. Mr. Cleveland was the first President ever elected on a platform which declared protection unconstitutional. From Washington to Benjamin Harrison no President had deflied that Congress had power to regulate commerce with foreign nations so as to protect our industrial interest from the intiduous attempts of rival nations to gain advantages in our markets. Mr. Cleveland, himself, had not denied this up to the time of his second election. His acceptance of the nomination upon a platform which declared the nation powerless to protect itself against the machination of foreign countries was a new departure even for Mr. Cleveland. It is nothing, therefore, to marvel at that the very moment Mr. Cleveland was inaugurated upon this un-American platform, with a House and Senate to back him, almost every man in American who has a large amount of capital invested in any industrial enterprise, stopped at once to see whether or not his business was to be stricken down by a foreign rival «and this threw millions of workmen out of employment. And then a universal ^stagnation set in.
Laborers were out of employment and could not buy. Merchants were without customers because those who had formely patronized them had no money with which to purchase even the common necessaries of life. And thus matters continued up to the day of the election. Is it any wonder that a party policy which ihad breught all this trouble upon the country was repudiated with an emphasis that will be felt and recognized throughout the civilized world? The people have been taught a lesson they will not forget in the next twenty years. They have learned that to strike down protection, which has been the foundation of our whole industrial system from the birth of the nation, is to take away from labor its just reward, from business its prosperity, and from the nation itself the power to raise revenue without oppressing the people. It would have been amazing if, under all the circumstances, the Democratic party had not been routed and scattered on the 6th of November, as no party, either in this or any other country, was ever routed and scattered before. To predict that the party will never again declare protection unconstitutional. and seek to overthrow it, is but to predict what is now a certainty. The people have been called on for the last time to adopt a policy which brings bread and smiles to the workmen of foreign nations and fills our own humble cottages with hunger and tears. The lesson of November 6tli, 1894, will not be forgotten by politicians till there shall be no occasion to remember it.-
THE sickest duck in all this region over the result of the election is the editor of the Frankfort Crescent. In his great agony of soul he refuses to be comforted. Because the people have said by their votes that they have no confidence in the Democratic party the editor of that "carnality" sheet seems to have lost all faith in the people.
THE Frankfort Crescent still keeps up its war against the Australian ballot law. Last Saturday it fired this shot:
The "Kangaroo" ballot law is proving itself the most corrupt piece of legislation machinery ever devised. It begins to stink with rottenness.
The above is respectfully referred the Ar/jus-News which has been such an enthusiastic champion of the law.
TEX Republicans and five Democrats. This is the way the Missouri delegation will stand in the Fifty-fourth Congress. The State gave 10,000 majority on the State ticket and the Legislature is Republican by a majority of 14 on joint ballot. Well done, Missouri.
IF we mistake not, one dose of Republican legislation in Indiana will satisfy the people for a quarter of a century.—Frankfurt Crescent.
So the Crescent gives it up that the Democrats will have no show for their white alley during the next quarter of a century.

Shakespeare says: "When sorrows come, they come not single spies but in battalions." How true this is of disease. How surely will over-work lead to nervousness, headache, nervous exhaustion,prostration, paralysis and the most terrible nervous diseases.
Bad blood causes humors, stomach, liver and 'kidney complaints, rheumatism, bad complexion, tumors and all kinds of blood diseases. That tired feeling means exhaustion of the nerves and vital forces—it kills. If the liver is torpid, constipation follows. This clogs the circulation and causes congestion of all the organs.
You must stop these complaints right where they are, if you value your life. Tiie way to do it is to take Dr.Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy. It cures diseases and makes you well.
MISS ROSE MCCARTHY.
The popular Miss Rose McCarthy, of 317 east 87tli street, New York City, writes: 'For along time I was troubled with nervousness and violent headaches. 1 would lie awake nearly all night and was in constant misery. Previous to this my complexion was a very healthy color, but it now became very bad. "1 took three bottles of Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy and was entirely cured.Sjly nervousness and headaches left me, my good complexion returned and 1 slept soundly. 1 can safely say to everybody who is suffering, just give it a trial and you will be cured. I hope my statement will find relief for many people who do not know the benefit of such a wonderful medicine.''
Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy strikes disease like the lightning's Hash, which notning can resist and where it strikes it cures. Put it to the test in your own case and see how quickly health and strength will be yours.
Physicians recommend it because it is the discovery of the most successful specialist in curing nervous and chronic diseases, Dr. Greene, of 35 west 14th street, New York. You can consult him free, personally or by letter.
"Yield Sot to Misfortune."
I was afflicted with catarrh last au tumn. During the month of October I could neither taste or smell and could hear but little. Ely's Creatn Balm cured it.—Marcus Geo. Shautz, Railway, N. .1.
I suffered from catarrh of the worst kind ever since a boy, and I never hoped for cure, but Ely's Cream Balm seems to do even thai. Many acquain tances have used it with excellent results.—Ostrum, 45 Warren- Ave., Chicago, 111. Cream Balm is agreeable.
RHEUMATISM is primarily caused by acidity of the blood. Hood's Sarsaparilla purifies the blood, and thus cures the disease.
