The fortunate termination of the strike continues to be a leadinir theme for comment In the press, aud the lesoit drawn from recent events seems to be, in the great majority of cases, that a vat change has been wrought in public opinion in a few year in recard to the proir relations of ttocietv to the individual.

It is very fortunate for the flannelmouthed Republican campaign orutor. who have been stumpinjf the Third Congressional district of Louisiana that a negro named Jacobs wan grazed by a bullet in a pergonal quarrel at the polls in Franklin. For this is all that la left them to talk about. The district, which fhey have tried so hard to proeelyte, has gone Democratic by a food majority, thousands of negroes voting the Democratic ticket The election wae entirely peaceful, and the only marked feature of it wae the large vote polled for an off election. Ic seems probable that a greater number of white voter cast their lot with the Kopublicans than before, but this was because Minou, the Republican candidate, made a distinctively white man's campaign,, solicited white voter in hie speeches and carried out literally the llarrieonian policy of neglecting the colored electors and doing all that wae possible to divide the white vote. The Republican interest in the election wae aroused by a desire to increase the narrow majority of three, by which they hold that Fifty-first Congress. The suocom of Mr. Price, the Democratic candidate, reduces the Republican majority to two, the Laird vacancy being still unfilled. The Third district was formerly Republican, and wm one of the last 9peta in the South that the carpetbaggers surrendered. It need to repose snugly in the vest pocket of the notorious William Pitt Kellogg, and he represented it in Congreee a I'eoently a 1SKJ-5. The first Xepubliean attempt to maeh the solid South having failed, the Administration and its lackeys wilt now be free to turn their undivided attention to Virginia, whore all Republican campaign meetings open to the martial strain of "Dixie," and where the Republican candidate for Governor favors jwnsions for Confederate soldiers. But until the Republican party Smith becomes something banides a makeshift and fraud, .simply useful ae a factor in the elections in Iowa and Kansas, the solid South will remain unbroken.
