FRIDAY, APRIL 5, 1895.

SWIFT'S plurality in Chicago is 41,110. This is both deep as a well and wide as a barn door. It is the largest plurality ever given any candidate for Mayor in the Garden City.

RHODE ISLAND held its annual election for Governor, State offices and a Legislature yesterday. The entire Republican ticket was elected by 10,500 plurality, thus distancing all previous high water marks. There are only three Democrats in each branch of the Legislature.

WHEN the Republican party regains control of the government, one of its first acts will be to restore relations of reciprocity with other powers. It is one of the ironies of the existing situation that an administration pledged to "freer trade" should have embroiled us in needless thrill' wars.

THE Lafayette Courier doesn't take much stock in "Coin's Financial School." It thinks '-the book is the financial fad of the time. It «has gotten under good headway, and will have to run its course, just like 'Trilby1 the blue grass craze and the roller rink of blessed memory. It offers no substantial remedy for existing ills, and even those who consent to be temporarily swayed by the arguments presented will recant in the course of time."j

TIME makes all things even. A year and a half ago George B. Swift was elected Mayor of Chicago but was counted out by John P. Hopkins and his gang. Tuesday tiie people arose in righteous wrath and gave Swift such a majority that the gang dare not tackle. The result in Chicago should be a lesson for the Democratic gangsters of Tennessee where an attempt is being made, and will probably succeed, to count out 'Governor-elect Evans. Tennessee will give such a Republican majority in 1890 that will make your head swim.

A RECENT number of the Canadian Trade Review commenting on the increased exportation of eggs from the Dominion to the United States, says:

We seem to be getting back our egg market across the border. Last week ten carloads were shipped from Montreal to New York, realizing a net profit to the shipper of three cents a dozen above what he could get at home. This reminds us of old times. Before the passage of the McKinley -act our exports to the United States amounted in 1889 to 14,011,017 dozen, of the value of §2,15(5,725. The five cents duty of the McKinley. tariff act cut down these exports to the value of §324,555.

There is no good reason why the United States should not produce as many eggs as its people can use, and the increased importation of this one article alone takes 8100,000,000 out of the pockets of the American housewives and puts it in the pockets of the Canadian egg raisers. But it's the Democratic policy to legislate in the interest of every country on the globe except the United States. It legislates not only in the interest of the Canadian egg raiser, but the Canadian producer of hay, wool, fruit, rye, beans, peas, potatoes, turnips, sheep and horses. The Democratic party is built that way.

THE sentiment in favor of bimetallism is rapidly growing not only in Germany, but in England. The speech of Rt. Hon. A. J. Balfour, Conservative leader in the English House of Commons, made yesterday, before the annual meeting of the Bimetallic League, shows that the people over there are seriously considering the question. The burning question of the day is how to get back to full bimetallism. THE JOURNAL believes that the way is through an international agreement. We believe it is bound to come and there is no power on earth that can prevent it. Both the gold monometallists and the silver monometallists are in the minority and neither can force their theories on an unwilling people. There can be no doubt that the great majority of the people of the civilized countries of the world are in favor of bimetallism, and this sentiment will finally triumph as sure as the rise of to-morrow's sun. So far as this country is concerned it has no use for the Gold Bug of the East nor the Silver Bug of the West. What they want is genuine bimetallism the world over.

ONE significant result of the Chicago election was the splendid majority given in favor of the law recently enacted by the Illinois Legislature applying civil service rules to the government of cities. The Law becomes oper­

ative when ratified by the voters of any city in the State. The endorsement of this law by a majority of 45,000 in Chicago shows that the people of that city ar? anxious for a change from the spoils to the merit system. There can b3 no question that this sentiment is growing throughout the country. It is a little hard on the boys who "fight in the trenches," but the principles of good government are of far more importance than a contest which simply involves a division of the spoils. Those who sneer at civil service reform may as well make up their minds that it has come, and has come to stay. Both parties are committed to the principle, and they have incorporated the doctrine in their platforms so long and so repeatedly that they have educated the people, especially those who are not placeseekers, to believe in it. Although they may not be conscious of it, yet the politicians who first advocated it in political platforms merely to catch votes, are responsible for existing sentiment in favor of the reform. The long and the short of the whole matter is that they builded better than they knew.

(iHAVKL ltOAI) EXPENSES. THE JOURNAL of to-day contains a report of the money expended for the current year. The whole amount expended is $1.8,00(3.14, on 300 miles of road. This is about SG0 per mile. While this sum is perhaps not larger than the cost per mile in many other counties, it will strike most people as being unnecessarily large. We believe the roads could be kept in repair, under s- different system, for a sum much less than §18,000 per year. This sum would hire 24 teams, with men to drive them, for 300 days in the year. Twenty-four teams on 300 miles of road would be one team to each 12J£ mileD of road, and would amount to 24 days hauling on each mile of road. Few will believe that there has been the one-half of this amount of hauling done on any of our roads. But is it, not so much the amount paid for keeping up the roads as the badness of the roads that people complain of. If we spend §18,000 ou our roads we ought to have good roads all the year round: and we have no doubt that under a properly guarded contract system, we could have constant repairs kept up for much less than the sum paid out the last year. At any rate, we would have good roads whether we saved any money or not.

Neighbors Indignant..

MARION, TIUL, April 4.—The 2-year-old son of Elwood F. Ilollowcll died, despite the prayers of the father, a Christian scientist.

Chicago Republicans Elect George B, Swift as Mayor by a Plurality of A"bout 40,000.

The City Council Contains a Majority of Republicans—St. Louis Democrats Suffer Defeat.

Returns from Nebraska, Colorado and Minnesota—Winslow Elected -sin Wisconsin.

CHICAGO, April 3.—The entire republican ticket, with the exception of a few isolated aldermen, was elected here Tuesday, George B. Swift's plurality for mayor approximating 40,000. This is taken from incomplete police returns. At 10 o'clock Tuesday night 810 precincts out of 929, returned Swift (rep.) 129,704 votes Wenter (dem.) 90,591 and Holmes (pop.) 9,S96. The council will stand overwhelmingly republican. "Hinkey Dink" McKenna (dem.) was defeated for alderman in the First ward—a democratic stronghold—by 400 votes. In the Nineteenth ward ex-Congressman Lawler, independent democratic candidate for alderman and ex-candidate for postmaster appears to have the whip hand. Alderman McGillen, Mayor Hopkins' right bower, is behind in the Thirty-first ward, and the only survivors of the aldermanic cyclone from the present outlook are Stuckart of the Sixth and Bennett of the Eighth.

The republicans gave themselves up to the delirium of victory and crowds of 1,000 in a body marched through the city hall during the evening with horns and drums. The city voted by a

GKOIiGE li. SWIFT.

majority estimated at 40,000 to place itself under the operations of the civil service law, which will apply to every department of the city government.

Koy O. West, republican candidate for city attorney, ran several thousand votes behind his ticket, but was elected by a handsome majority. James R. B. Van Cleave for city clerk. Adam Wolf for city treasurer and Charles G. Neeley for circuit judge on the republican ticket, were elected by majorities equal to Swift's.

LATKR—At midnight 900 out of 920 precincts had been heard from, the vote on the leading candidates for mayor standing: Swift (rep.), 138,211 Wenter (dem.), 99,162.

From returns received it is figured out that the city council will stand politically as follows: Republicans, 50 Democrats, 18.

Dispatches announce republican victories at the following points in Illinois:

Astoria, Atlanta, Bemont, Batavla, Bridgeport, Bloomington, Carmi, Champaign, Clinton. Charleston. Carlyie, Clay City, Dixon, Danville.Decatur,Elgin,Greenville. Havana. Joliet, Kankakee, Kewanee, Monmouth, Mount Vernon, Monticello, McLeansboro, Newman, Naperville, Olney, Peoria, Piano, Paxton. Paris. Robinson. Hock Island, Rushvillu. Salem, Sheldon.

J.'inocrats were successful in the i\. nowing towns: Assumption, Areola, Benton, Bourbon, Howdon. Camargo, Fulton, Galer.a, Jcrseyville, Martinsville. Ottawa. Pekin, Quincy. SpringHeld, Shelbyville, Taylorville and Waukegan.

Populists or non-partisan tickets won in the following: Aurora. Galesburg, Geneseo. Mascoutah, Moline, Mendota, Rumsey and Whitehall.

Result in Springfield.

SPRINGFIELD, 111., April 3.—As a result of the most bitter political fight held here in years the democrats succeeded in electing Marion U. Woodruff for mayor over P. W. Harts (rep. and A. P. A.). John O. Rames is also elected for collector, but it is believed the republicans have elected the other officers. They get a majority of the council. Two negroes ran on the republican ticket—one for justice of the peace and one for alderman—both being elected.

Peoples' Party Wins.

EAST ST. LOUIS, 111., April 3.—The peoples' party city ticket, representing the law and order sentiment as opposed to Monte Carlo gambling and race tracks, headed by H. P. Bader for mayor, was elected Tuesday by a large majority over the citizens' ticket, upon which Mayor M. M. Stephens was a candidate for a fifth term as mayor. Party politics were ignored.

Republican Eleoted to Congress, GALESBURG, 111., April 3.—The congressional election to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Gen. P. S. Post passed off quietly, the city and township elections being the absorbing topic. George W. Prince, the republican candidate, was elected by about 12,000 plurality in the district.

Republican Victory In 8t. LouU. ST. LOUIS, April 3.—Tuesday's municipal election turned all the city offices but two over to the republicans. Democrats are stupefied with the result

and republicans are jubilant. Of the twenty-eight members of the house of delegates chosen Cronin (dem.), of the First ward, and Burke (dem.), of the Eighth, are elected, the remainder being republicans. Six republicans at large were elected to the city council, which will now be unanimously republican, as seven republicans are the hold-over members. The average republican majority in a total vote of 53,000 is 12,000. Democratic indifference contributed to this result. Rows were numerous and many arrests were made. At 0 p. m. George Ifallgraft, a democratic ward worker, was shot in the breast by Henry Henderson, a colored republican challenger, at an Eighth ward polling booth. Frank Campbell, a democratic judge of election in ward Nineteen, was arrested for intimidating voters. In his pockets a bundle of 150 false ballots were found. The republican victory is so sweeping that no contests are likely.

Wisconsin.

MILWAUKEE, April 3.—The election in Milwaukee and the state was very quiet and a small vote was polled. The result in the city of Milwaukee for supreme court justice is as follows: Winslow (non-partisan), 7,431 Clementson (ind.), 6,251. Winslow carries Milwaukee county. Racine gives him 2,500 majority. At this hour it is deemed probable that Winslow is elected.

In this city the vote for other officers is as follows: For judge of the municipal court, Wallber (rep.), 11,009 Nye (ind.), 4,Ga6 for police justice, Neeleu (rep.). 9,524 Bruess (ind.), 7,069. Frank Waller (rep.) for clerk of municipal court, had no opposition.

The republicans have held their own. generally speaking, in the city and township elections.

In 33 itKH'.Mt! -t Towns.

ST. PAUL, Mi::: .. April 3.—Elections were held Tuesday in most Minnesota cities outside of St. Paul, Minneapolis and Dulutli. So far as politics is concerned the result was pretty close to a draw. At Albert Lea the election amounted to a municipal revolution. The independents carried everything, electing V. Gillsup mayor and voting in favor of license. At Fcrcus Falls the democrats elected Thomas N. McLean mayor. At Hastings the people took the bit in their teeth, turned down both the democrats and the republicans and e'ected George Parker, independent, mayor. At Mankato Edgar Weaver, the candidate of the republicans and democrats, was elected mayor. Three of the aldermen are democrats and three republicans. At Faribault the republicans elected B. B. Sheffield mayor, but the democrats got two of the four aldermen. There was a complete overthrow at Tracy, the prohibitionists losing. License carried by 138 and all of what was known as the whisky ticket wras elected. At East Grand Forks A. C. Rinehart (pop.) defeated Hugh IJunlery (dem.) for mayor, by 66 majority.

Nebraska.

OMAHA, Neb., April 3.—Party lines were not drawn in municipal elections in Nebraska in many cases, but when they were the republicans gained, except at Hastings and Plattsmouth, where the democrats carried the day. The question of granting saloon licenses was the leading issue and was favored in four-fifths of the towns. Frank Graham (rep.) was elected mayoi of Lincoln by a large majority. Thq vote was heavy with no striking feattres. The populists showed no strength where they had tickets up.

In Colorado.

DENVER, Col., April 3.—The municipal election passed off quietly, with but a few minor disturbances. It is conceded the republican ticket is elected by 5,000 majority. Thomas 8. McMurray heads the winning ticket for mayoi-. The count will not be completed till late. Returns from the smaller towns of the state nearly all show republican victories.

Iowa Merchant Falls.

CEDAR RAPIDS, la., April 3.—George A. Frink, general merchant at Wesley, has failed, with liabilities of 912,000 and assets of 88,000.
