The other papers have snort dispatches, on that subject. The Times says:. "The elections have again surprised American politicians. The Republicans were victorious beyond all expectations. The failure to break Tammany is discouraging. Such is the state of American politics in the absence of any great issue (except the tariffs and the currency, upon which the contending parties are unable or unwilling to range themselves fac to face) that It Is impossible - to predict the result of the presidential election. Terhaps the Democrats have the mot cause to regret the success of Tammany, for 'some of Tammany's moral discreet Is f ound to fall upon the Democratic party." Tne Daily News (Liberal) says: "Th-e ejections are going so markedly in favor of the Uefrublk-ans that the presidential seat U all but safe fcr the next-year Rcpub-lk-Mn candidate." The Chronicle (Liberal) says: "It I quite clear that there is no real Democratic .revival. We regret, but are not surprised at the victory ot Tammany in New York. It tarries an Important moral for our too-extreme temperance friends." The Post (Conservative) says: "The general result confirms the opinion that the ' reaction against the Democrats, which was j conspicuous las; .November, is rrt III in operation. The Democratic success In New "V ot k city was truly remarkable and 6fcas Ioubtlfss partly due to the Intolerance of the reforming party." T'e.Glcbe says: "We tMnk.no question is likely to arise before the presidential year which will bricg the Democrats back to power. So far as our relations with the United State. are concerned, the issue is of exceedingly little importance, involving no other change than another American embassador here. Hut real rejtret 13 felt in this country at Tammany's victory'. The leformers did not know how to use their ncwlv acquired power with discretion and to them alone must be ascribed the defeat." .

Kuntz Lumber Company, claims that an attempt was made to stop his horse while he was returning from Winchester about 9 o'clock last night. It was evidently the same men that robbed Turner. In all the robberies reported there have been two men who did the work, and in each case the description was similar.

In each case tracks of a horse and buggy have been found the next moml.n:. which Indicates the horse was a small pi-j-r and very speedy.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal. KOKOMO, Ind.. Nov. 7. The testimony for the State In the Foust murder trial Is all in and the defense will close Friday. The chief witnesses for the State were the nine and eleven-year-old sons of Mrs. Maggie Bolton, in whose house at Elwood William Foust was kfllW.

"When the shot was fired," said one of the boys on the stand, "Foust was sitting at one side of the table (where they were playing cards) and George Hires at the other. Hires arose from his chair and shot across the table. Foust fell over, but said nothing. Toler took Foust by the collar, raised him up, saying, 'Keep your hat on or I'll hit you They carried him out between them, talking to him like he was alive, put him in Eph CrulPs buggy and drove away.

The white race Is takmg charge of the black race everywhere we do not mean the Asiatic race, but the African and it will have to make up its mind very soon as to the condition of it3 guardianship, otherwise there" will be misery among tic blacks and demoralization among the whites. Except in Haytl, there Is now no black race which is not under white sovereignty, or expecting white sovereignty, or preparing itself for a last fight in protest against that encroaching dominion. In East Africa, South Africa, West Africa, the Congo, State, the West Indies ani the Southern States of America the white dominion is supreme, and the tide is still rolling on, Dahomey being submerged yesterday, as Ashantee will be submerged tomorrow. Twetity years hence no black will be able to live happily save by consent of some white people, and the responsibility assumed b' the latter will be complete, and, we are compelled to admit, most terrible. They must, therefore, tbink out what it means, and discover some method by which they can "reconcile the races" that Is, can enable them to live together to the advantage of both, or at all events without direct deterioration to either. The method has not been found yet; all experiments, so far, having proved partial or total failures. Slavery must be accounted among the latter, for it fossilized the blacks and demoralized the whites, produced no reconciliation, had little educative effect, and socially was so unsuccessful that It was by a sort of consensus of white humanity given up. Black Independence, besides being an admission of white failure, works badly, old history, as well as the records of Hayti and Liberia in modern times, both proving that while individual blacks have displayed considerable powers, the race as a whole requires white guidance and control to enable It to advance. Equality does not succeed either. It Is toting tried in the Southern States of tho Union, and It bid6 fair to produce a race war of the most terrible kind, while even now it produces cordiality in the governed, and a base and tricky hypocrisy In those who govern. We, jvho are Abolitionists of the stronger type, who would treat the slave trade as piracy and slaveholdlng as an; offense, warned the North that In giving the blacks the vote they were making, for the sake of mere logic, an experiment of extreme rashness. The vote was, however, given, and proved worthless. The . black roan was not competent to govern, and tho white man would not endure his attempts to do it. He was deprived of his vote by force applied in ways that produced excessive cruelty and injustice, and severed the two races worse than ever slavery had done; but force, as usual, settled nothing. SOUTH CAROLINA PLAN. No security Is possible where half the population is under arms to prevent the other half from exercising its legal rights and the whites of the Southern States are now seeking to disfranchise the blacks by legal means. They cannot alter the Constitution, but they can, they think, make it inoperative, and a convention Is now sitting in South Carolina to devise tho means. The favorite plan of the convention, which will, it is said, be adopted, is a very mean one. It is to disfranchise all illiterate voters, and hand over to a State otllcer the right of deciding whether any one who claims to be literate really is so. That officer. It is admitted, will have secret instructions to admit whites, but not blacks, and so the whole race will cease to claim the suffrage and will be legally disfranchised. That is trickery, not statesmanship, but we see reason to fear that it will be imitated in the colonies of South Africa, where already the question of race is a burning one, and where we may rely on it. the white race, once closely pressed In its interests or its pride, will submit to no government but its own. There Is no place on earth where fifty thousand Englishmen consent to foreign rule- and we may take It as certain that the obedience which they refuse to Dutchmen and Spaniards they will not concede to negroes or half-castes, however numerous or however "civilized." The white race as a race will obey no other, whatever happens. There will be perietual discord, rising frequently to the dignity and horror of local civil war, and the end will be either white withdrawal, or more probably an angry and sullen submission on the part of the blacks, almost as fatal to true civilization as civil war itself. We do not believe. In spite of the recoil in German and French opinion, that slavery will ever be tried again, and we hope tJiat economlo necessities, if not philanthropic feeling, will avert th expulsion en masse which was the Spanish plan, and which Do Tocquevllle feared would be the end in the North American republic. Is it impossible to discover a principle or theory of government under which the two colors can live together, and yet observe the two essential conditions without which there can be no progress that the black roan shall be free and contented; and that the white man shall have the guidance of him? Incomparably the best system, of course, is the Indian, which is the impartial rule over both colors of an enlightened but despotic committee, delegated and controlled by a wise and Christian government far away; but that method, which is in an extraordinary degree vivifying, is in most places now Inapplicable. We want a priniclple on which Republicans can work: and wo believe that the hope which would be most fruitful Is that the black people should be declared to be foreign immigrants, guests of the State, entitled to the benefit of every law and every privilege, education, for example, but debarred from political power and from sitting on Juries, which latter, indeed. In mixed cases ought to be superseded by properly qualified magistrates and Judges. This principle, honestly acted on, would leave all power for a time in the hands of the white men. without violence and without trickery, and all the rights in the possession of the black men which they are able to exercise wisely. To say they would bo oppressed by such a rule Is not true, for they would be precisely in the position of the majority of Englishmen before 1S.T2. a position found to be perfectly compatible with, much happiness, and a fairly rapid progress In civilization. OBJECTIONS DISCUSSED. It would, of course, De a condition of the system that the Legislature should not pass caste laws, should not Impose taxation on any basis except ability to pay, and should not accept any labor code not applicable to all alike. The black men, If aggrieved, could then strike, Just as the Italian workmen do in New York, and the question of industrial position- would get itself settled byfair competition. There would be plenty of trouble, no doubt, of different kinds; but the fact and the-theory would be brought into accord, and the discreditable trickery of granting political powers with one hand, to take them away with the other, would be done away with. The superior competence of the white man. which, for the pressnt. Is undeniable, would be legally acknowledged; while nothing would be demanded of the black man not accorded by the man who Is white. It will be said, of course, that the black man would resent his "legal Inferiority." but we do not find that the mass of white women in tho States or in South Africa resent theirs, and do not believe that the blacK Is, at hear;, so blind to what he feel?, as regards alh black men but himself, to be a self-evident truih. We want. In fact, first of all. to be done with lying about the matter. The black man has exactly the same rlgnt to happiness, liberty and the pursuit of knowledge as the white man, but he has not the same right to govern because he is not so capable of doing so. Whether he will become capable we do not know nor does anybody else. The experience of three thousand years is against him, but during these years he never had the guidance of another and higher race, and never acc?pted a creed which strengthened him, as Mohammedanism has strengthened the Houssas. or softened him, as, undoubtedly, Christianity has softened the emancipated blacks of Jamaica. It has been pointed out that It Is necessary in any plan of this kind to define a "black." or, as he would prefer to be called, a "man of color" a feat which Americans have never yet succeeded In accomplishing . Wc should define him as "a person of African origin, whose family had rot been crossed twice In ruccession with white blood," thus admitting all quadroons, octoroons, etc.. Into the white class. We think It most dansrerous to exclude them, and be. lleve that the inefficiency for which, and not for the color, we would disqualify pure negroes, does not exist ln the mixed race.
They oftn show, as we are now seeing In Cuba, and formerly raw In Havtt, "fcreat capacity for leadership, and their permanent ambition is to be registered among white men. They would feel exclusion excessively, and our object is not to depress this or that race, but to secure the means of happiness to the blacks without depriving the whites of that leadership which it Is better they should have, and which. In the long run, they will inevitably take, if necessary, by the sword.. We want. In fact. Christian principle and the facts of life to be thoroughly harmonized; to give up lying about a nonexistent equality, and to put down oppression but not variations of political graJe.

NEW MEN AT DEVIL'S LAKE. Strike of Grent Northern Employes at That Point Broken. ST. PAUL, 1 Minn., Nov. 7. Tho Great Northern strike does not seem to be growing very rapidly to-day. To-day new men reached Devil's Lake, the one point where there was something of a freight blockade, and on their arrival some of the men who had gone out Joined with other oil men, and. with these new men all is going on as usual at that point, though some American Railway Union men claim to be gaining ground. There may be trouble about to break out at other points but nothing Is known of. It here. A large number of men have come here from the East, in charge of detectives, to fill places of men who might go out The officials of the road continue to insist that there is no trouble, but the men who favor a strike claim to be in no wise discouraged, but are hopeful of winning in the end. A dispatch from Chicago says: AH railroads having headquarters In Chicago, have given positive assurance to President Hill, of the Great Northern railway, that, as far as lies in their power, they will co-operate with him in defeating the A. R. U. strike now threatened on his road. This information came to-day from officials of the Chicago.. Milwaukee & St. Paul, the Burlington, the Illinois Central ana the Chicago & Eastern Illinois systems. This support of the Great Northern is an outgrowth of the plan pursued by the general managers of the different roads of Chlcagc, when . they were dealing with the strike of last year. Mr. Hill has engaged a detective agency to furnish him armed guarJs, and advised the Chicago railroad managers that his road would employ any railroad men out of work who had not committed an act of violence in Chicago or elsewhere against a railroad during' the strike of 1894. There are some two thousand of these men in Chicago at the present time, whose names were on the pay rolls of the railroads up to July 1, 1834. They Include engineers, firemen, brakemen p.nd flagmen. Wrhile they have been "blacklisted" for nearly eighteen months, no charge has repted against hem but of having simply quit work when the strike began. At No. 175 Monroe street these men were being engaged to-day and furnlsaed transportation to St. Paul. Strikers Restrained. WALLA! WALLA, Wash. Nov. 7. United States District Judge Han ford has issued an order restraining strikers on the Great Northern road from interfering with, the operation of the road. The injunction was telegraphed to Spokane ani given to the deputy United States marshal for service. Till: MLB OF TUB NORTH. Professor Bell Tells Ahont the Xevr River He Has Discovered. New York Herald. Prof. R. Bell, of the Geological Survey, was Interviewed by a Herald reporter at Ottawa concerning the extensive exploration from which he has just returned, and more particularly in regard to the discovery of a great river almost due north of that city. -The government was desirous of Oiling up the great blank space on the map to the south and southeast of James bay. and directed me to proceed with the work," he said. "The space represents the only large unexplored area In, the southern or valuable part of the Dominion. . "The existence of this blank up to this year was rather a reflection on our geographical enterprise. This area Is larser than the settled portions of either Ontario or Quebec and considerably larger than the State of New York. I found that it all belongs to the drainage area of a single river, which was consequently very large in a country where the rainfall Is so copious. "Tills river turns out to be one of the leading geographical features of the Dominion, and It seems almost incredible that it should have remained unknown till now. One reason for this is the fact that It Is not used for transportation by the Hudson Bay Company. The great tract of country which it drains Is valuable for agriculture, being mostly south of England in latitude, and having a nearly level surface, with good soil and very little rock. "Speaking generally, my route was as direct as possible from Ottawa city to the southeastern extremity of James bay, and It was the firt time that such a Journey has been attempted. With two large birch bark canoes, manned by crews of strong Indians, I ascended the Gatineau river, which enters the Ottawa near this city, and some of its branches, till I reached the head waters of the Ottawa. The height of land between the basin of the St. lawrem-e and that of Hudson bay passes close to Grand lake, on the upper Ottawa. Crossing this gr?at divide by portaging from one lake to another, I struck a small stream. Just wide enough to allow my canoes to pass. But It. soon enerted a good-sized lake, and alter that tributaries fell In from east and west till It became a bis: river. "An assistant of mine in 1SS7 had surveyed a portion of this stream and had heard some vagu accounts of a great river to the north, of which this was one of the heads. I began my Instrumental survey where my assistant had left off and carried it on all the way to the mouth and thenc along the sea above, to Rupert's House, in order to tie it on to a fixed point at the other end. "Our river had now become larger than the upper Ottawa. Below this several large tributaries Join it from the wc3t. Tills part of the ttrcam has an average depth of forty feet and it Is seldom interrupted by falls or rapids, ko that long stretches of It would be navigable by steamboats. "In all this part of the Iver thre Is only one human Inhabitant a lono Indian who came pver from the Abitlbt country a few years ago and took possession of a hunting ground the size of several ordinary counties. I had fortunately fallen In with this Indian when at Grand Lake, whither he had come to trade his furs J to the agent of the Hudson Bay Company, t

"About half way between the watershed, and the mouth our . river falls into t! west end of a lake called Mattakaml. which lies at richt angles to the coarse of tho river. A large branch from the east, called the Waswanl pi.-falls Into the east end of this lake, and the united waters dischaige by a great river flowing out about tlio middle of its north side. "My Indian guide turned back from this lake, as ho had never traveled further. Ha told me he had heard from other Indians that the big river did not fall Into Rupert bay, which, however, did not prove correct. "On Mattakaml lake we found an old, one-eyed Indian who had only this summer come from tho Abitibl country, and could, could give us no Information about tho great river we were to descend to the sea. We were thenceforward obliged to depend upon ourselves, and we succeeded In reaching James bay In safety, thanks to the skill of my Indians. t "With the exception of some small tracts the whole country Is covered with th original forest. Game wis unaccountably scarce, but fish were plentiful tn all tho lakes and streams. On reaching RuDert' House we crossed the bay in a sohoontr of the Hudson Bay Company to Moose factory, and thence ascended the western branch of the Moose river to the Canadian Pacific railway." Un needed Confirmation. New York Times. Now that an Indiana Jury has decided that no wrong is done to anybody by th man who declares that ail spiritualistic "mediums'' are "liars, fools, knaves, frauds or ignoramuses," it might be well to get a similar confirmation of the widely accepted belief that twice two is four.
