Good-bye Bessie! The din of battle is husked. At first, Republicans claimed the | rth. _____________ The occupation of political traders fs gone. __ New Yoke gave a clear and comfertable majori ty. The Democratic Taylor carried Tennessee by £5,000 majority. Texas went Democratic by 100.000 majority—aud the returns are all in. The voice qf the people, in thunder tones, should speak against boodle polities. _ New Hampshireshowed great Democratic gains, and the race fi>r Governor was a close one. The elect ion “returns1’ pulled a Republican Governor through in Minnesota. It was a close shave. Colorado and California open the golden gates, and take unto themselves a Democratic government.

Uox. Abram Hewitt, tlic candidate of the united. Democracy, was triumphantly elected mayor of New York. Boodle, scratching and disaflcctiou did it, is the general opinion. Now let ns turn our attention to other matter. General apathy gave the Republicans what littie victories they achieveu in Congressional districts iu various states. ”--- f The shock of Novem ber, 188C, in Indiana, will prove but the prelude to a sweeping Democratic victory iu November, 1888. . It is a Fi-cuch saying that it is the unexpected that happens. The truth of this was verified at the election in the county and State. Tia Democratic party has Congressmen ifcoui thirty-three of the thirty-eight State's and the Republicans from twenty-eight It is stated that there is a pronounced movement among Western Khights of Labor to prevent strikes and boycotts in the future. A number of eager and ambitious politicians dug their own graves on Tuesday, Nov. 2. The rule or ruin policy in politics is dangerous. The New York society lady evangelist, wiio has “saved several faahiou*ble souls,” promises to resume her . Bible cites as soon as enough fashionables can he got to make it worth while. _-_ The Democratic party of Councetieut arc again beaten out of the Governor they elected, (a plurality fails to elect) and the defeated Republican candidate will be counted in by the Legislature. Political traitors have no reward. Chagrin follows cheer; distrusted by those they helped; held in coutempt by those they betrayed. Sorrow indeed is their lot I They dig their own graves! Best in peace. There is a good working majority for the Democrats in the House, where Mr. Carlisle may he re-elected speaker, and there is not an absolute certainty that the Senate will not soon pass from Republican control. Our rooster is not dead, but is able to crow over the defeat of Ben Harrison who will be succeeded in the United States Senate by a Democrat, and also able to crow over victories in all parts of the United States.

l nr total elect ora. vote of the States caitiwl by the Democracy foots up a handsome majority—212. Minnesota and Connecticut ought to be added to this, making it 225. It will be observed the country is Democratic. Nov that the election is orer, the amicable relations of neighbors will bo resumed, the fuss and fumes of election are disappearing, business will increase in volume, and every citizen will pursue the even tenor ot bis way.__ Low wages are paid laborers in protected districts. Charity should begin at home, but tlie Pennsylvania protection barons go into distant Congressional districts to distribute their boodle to defeat Congressmen who do not believe that the poor should be overtaxed for the benefit of the rich. PxjrctsrtVania is the highest protected State in the Union, says an exyet labor is always groanijjdaining and suffering there. Isn’t this strange? Doesn’t it either show thsit protection does not lMmcfit tbs laborer, or the la!orer makes unjust and unfounded complaints?

U. S. SENATE A TIE. The Legislature of <L'aliforuia being Democratic, an«l probably electing Senator Ilcarst, will make the next Scuate stand: Republicans, thirty* nine; Democrats thirty-seven. This calculation includes a Democrat to succeed Ben Harrison, ft-ora Indiana, which is now assured. The Republican aggregate of thirty-nine also includes Riddleburger, the Readjnster, who often jumps from out of the party lash. Van Wyck, of Nebraska, is also iurlincd to iude]>eiadence. Both Riddleberger and Van Wvek are opposed to any factions opposition of the Administration. To all intents and purposes it may he said that the Senate is evenly divided politically. This ia glory enough for one election: The Senate a tie on a strict party vote, as follows: Democrats, 37; Republicans, 37; Readjustee l; and Independent, 1. Three United States Senators gained!

ALL OVER NOW. The eleetion had its ups and downs. If it has left sore places it will do no good to exhibit them. Silence will * heal the sores. They come at every election. First one aud then another is attacked. But they are not fatal. Like boils they are often blessings in disguise. There aie few fortunes made in office or politics and uone are now honestly made in those lines of business. Let the victors be modest in their rejoicing, and the vanquished take their defeat with good grace.

Did it ever occur to a thoughtful citizen that it is not the laboring men who go about over the country pleading for more tariff to “protect labor.” On the contrary so far as the labor organizations have given expression on this subject they have favored a radical revision of the tariff laws. In New York the labor organizations made Henry George their candidate for Mayor, a man who has expressed him self as radically opposed to the high tariff laws. These fellows who keep up their pleadings for more tariff for the better protection of labor, put themselves in altout the same ridiculous attitude as did the slaveholders of the South when they sent men out to plead the cause of slavery “for the good of the slaves themselves.” _ Regarding John G.-Carlisle's race for Congress, the Cincinnati Enquirer says: There was a very pretty point made by Mr. Carlisle in his interview with the Associated Press, to wit: that if the vote against him had been larger than on previous occasions, he might have thought there was some political meaniug in it; but that, inasmuch as the vote for Thobe was less than one-half of that cast for his Republican opponent in 1884, whcu his (Carlisle's) majority was nearlv 15,000, he had reason to believe that it was simply a case of his frieuds going to sleep.” With public plunderers bribery is a virtue. They sleep with party traitors, aud make spies of men who have weakuess easily debauched. But the dangers that hemmed the Democracy can be conquered by relentless, by unremitting, by unwavering warfare when the time comes for action. The result does not discourage true Democrats. The eternal God of years is theirs. Long live the Democratic Party! _______ A very remarkable colored family are living in Harrison county, six miles south of Corydon. Isaiah Mitchem is the father's name, and he is the father of thirteen healthy children, seven of whom are regularly licensed school teachers. The grandfather is a hale ohi gentleman, and is a practicing physician of thirty years' Jons Jaxkett, as the representative of the Tin-Plate monopoly, say the Cincinnati Enquirer, claims to have secured tho defeat of Morrison in the interest of the wage-workers. Wouldn't it be a little more consistent for these monopolists to raise the wages of employes instead of putting their ntouey into election corruption Binds?

IIow sorely the Republicans miss Zach Chandler at this period! says the Cincinati Enquirer. He would have had a magnificent opportunity for the exercise in fixing up the Legislatures of New Jersey, Indiana and California. As it is the Republicans are unable to steal what the Democrats have honestly carried. Over-cox riDKxcE and disaffection on the one side, and a sharp, incisive aggressiveness of solid ranks, on the other, in a life and death struggle to recover lost power and positions oi trust were the most prominent feature* of the county canvass, and rather large and not apprising results have followed. _ A new counterfeit five dollar gold piece is now beingciirculated. To detect it front the good ones, look closely at the “united," and if the “n” is upside down refuse it, as that is the on)}' way they ca n be detected by a person not expert in examining counterfeit money. .Farmers are begining to object to having signs painted on their fences and barns. They think the best way for merchants to advertise is through the columns of their local newspaper. •

DISFRANCHISE*™1. The New Albany Ledger says: “A mau of experience and observation and who is likewise a thinker suggests disfranchisement as the remedy for tlie corrupt use of money in elections. One thing certain, some remedy must be devised. This country cannot remain free and prosperous as it is now, with the festering sore of elections, growing more angry and inflamed every year. It has come to the point that a poor and iionest man stands liittle chance of being elected to office. Even substantial citizens are getting into the pernieions habit of selling their votes; It is generally done under the guise of payment for services rendered, but it is none the less a selling of their vote. If a candidate is known to bare money and be willing to.spend it, the saleable voter hang around ami cling to him like leeches. And this selling is not confined toihc ordinary hummer and election dead beat. Business men, farmers, professional men, all classes contain their men who are on the market in election times. It will not answer tc> make the crime of vote buying or selling a penitentiary offense, bee*use the law will not be enforced. The penaltv is considered in excess of the crime. But disfranchisement will prove just as etteetual and can be enforced because public opinion will sustain it. Let our newly elected legislature carefully consider this matter as it is important, in fact essential to the future existence ot the republic.

SHOUT 1 SHOUT! ! The glad tidings of Ben Harrison’s defeat will cause great joy. The legislature is Democratic oju joint ballot. Bennie must go. The following article from au exchange is amended so as to apply to this cans® of rejoicing: After long years of hard labor, of weary waiting and watching, of hope aud strife victory comes at last. let us therefore rejoice and make merry, for the day of our deliverance is come. Blow the drum and beat the fife; wave thejangiiug cymbals. Bring out the fatted calf, let the goose hang high; let us eat, drink and make merry, Johuny, fill up the bowl, aud we'll all drink, shout and sing as we go marching round. Sound the loud timbrel, toot the born; blow a loud blast on the bugle and awaken the screaming file. Sound the. loud bazoo, jangle the merry zingarees and trill the sweet tintinabulations of the hugag. Sound the lute aud harp, the psaltery and the flute. Slug Indiana, sing: let alt the people shout and sing. Let the bonfires glare, the trumpet blare; paint the outer wall and the highway a sar. guinary hue. Let the daughters of Indiana dance and 'Wing, for the Lord hath sjmken good concerning us. Rejoice and throw up your hats ye burghers, and you, ye voemen, yell. Sing unto the Lord a new snug, sing songs of thanksgiving, to him who hath gotten us the victory; sing, sing, sing. We're git’n out de wilderness, dec's no mb’ ribbers for to cross. Sound a loud alarum on the turn-turn, and awaken the dulcet notes of the rub a dub; play vigorously upon nn harp of a thousand string*. Oh come, let us ratify, jollify, glorify, celebrate, jubilate. Leap for joy, ye oM men, and you, ye kids, skedadle. Gloria en excel sis: Laudite Dominant: Venite exulamus. The year of Jubilee is come, return ve banished pilgrims home, a royal feast is spread. _ Minnesot.v is kuocking at the door of the Democratic household. Republicans carried it by a few hundred votes. Colorado and California show a majority of Democratic votes; New Jersey, New York and Connecticut are also Democratic, aud the gains in other Northern States (except Indiana, where disaffected Democrats aud Republican boodle caused a bare victory for the Republicans) show the streugth of the Democraticparty to he increasing in numbers. The Nation is Democratic. The Democratic party is the party of the {mopic. The party has survived defeat after defeat; dissensions may cause a temporary hiss here and there, hut its cause will never fail of support from the masses. Those who believe iu and snpimrt the true principles of Democracy, uncorrupted and uncompromised, are those w ho uufhrl the flag and carry the parfy to victory. Those who oppose it may triumph by unfair means hut Democracy is relentless aud untiring; where they are beaten, they rally, and when ealled, they answer, and are eager for the fray. Those who have left the rauks will again be enlisted, or go to the enemy, “bag and baggage.” With or without them, Democracy will contest every inch of ground. When the time eornes the ranks should be closed. Those who have “aired a personal grievance,” suffer more in the defeat of a ticket than those whom they aided to defeat. Those men who lost iu this eouuty were true Democrats ; none can quest ion their Democracy. Their defeat is no discredit to them. They upheld the banner of Democracy, while their professed friends were trying to tear it to pieees. Now that the election is over let these differences settle themslves. Let no fiirther breach be made. Time is the heating halm. Democracy, true Democracy, will triumph over all, ami a government of the people, by the people, and for the people will be inaugurated in county* State and Nation.

It is said thalT the exclamation “Rats!” originated several years ago at a theater in Chicago, where a lot of raw Italian ballet girls were danciug. They were awfully afraid ot mice and rats, and it was the favorite pastime of the Americ an members of the company to frighten the Ballerinis by yelling “Rats !* at them as they stood in the wings waiting to go on, and then enjoy their shouts of horror. By and by the word came into use as a terra of derision tor a false alarm and the street got hold of it.

EASTER. “ Though as late in earning this year as it is possible for it to come, Easter is probably only the more trelcoine for that. It routes at a season when the spring is fairly upon us ant) the promise of the summer is in full bios* sent. A “White Easter”—that omen of a fat graveyard—although possible, is uot at all probable now, and the grandest festival that the Christian rhureh recognizes comes to us this year in the resurrection time of flowers and foliage from the dark tomb of the winder's blight. To tvs Easier is the one day of all the year. Christmas (now but a few weeks distant) marks the birth of the world s Savior, but Easter stamps his work with the seal of success. The Resurrection of the Dead is the one grand fact commemorated in Easter. Upon it stands or falls the whole Christian theology. Without the crowning fact, proven on the occasion which gave rise to the feast of Easter, then is Christianity but a system of ethics, and humanity has no higher aspiration than the altruism of the agnostic and no warmer consolation than the consciousness of well-doing.

As, thereloTC, taster is the most important day in the year to religion, so Christian thcologists made it the grand central point around which all Christian theology revolves. It is the day of all days for rejoicing. So the custom adopted in all Christian countries of the women on this day putting on the new and beautiful garments of spring wear and going to church to worship in them is an approppriate as well as a beautiful one. And underlying new bonnets and iVesh flowers alike, sounding from sunny skies and beautiful raiment as well, comes in stirring, exultant, major chords the glad world's bubbling song of joy at the assurance and the proof that death is hut a temporary change, and that life indeed is triumphant over all !

BOUGHT OUT,JOT DEFEATED. The following- from the Boonville Enquirer contains truths applicable to this county, and many others, in Indiana: “Never in the history ot Warrick county has there been such an outrageous prostitution of the ballot in the election as on Tuesday With an affroutry and boldness that would have shamed and cause Dorsey to blush, the Republicans went into the streets and bought votes. With a corruption fund of thousands of dollars they bought men's sacred rights, not hesitating to pay from ten to fifteen dollars a vote. Their money was scattered thick as the fallen leaves of autumn, all over the county, and under its powerful influence, the old banner was made to trail in the dust. A victory that is purchased at the price of liberty, at the cost ol men's sacred rights, is no victory foi anybody, for its corrupt aud diming influence on society comes back tc eurse them. The future politics of Warrick county will be boodle. No man or party that cannot put up money can succeed. With tl e large and increasing corrupt vote, increasing uuder the damning influence ot money, no poor man need apply. When men who stand high in the saneturv of the ehurch, with the mantle ot religion thrown around them, will lend their money and influence to purchase the sacred franchise ot their fellow man, the outlook for American politics is indeed bad, for in a few years the rich eau buy. up all tlie votes in the country and forge the shackles that will send yon into m»narehial bandage. The time was when campaigns were run on principle, but under the corrupt teachings of the Republican party it is ruu witli “boodle,” The party that holds power in the future in Warrick must buy | it. No matter how just your claim no matter how honorable yonr candidate, no matter what saered principle may underiy it, before the boodle il must go.” * , An Independent Republican View. [Irfiiauapolis News.} Tariff reform triumphed in this district to the credit of the good people thereof, and the coek-a-doodle-d« which the protectionists are setting up over the de eat of Messrs. Morrison and Hnrd is false where it isn'i dangerous. During this campaigt nothing was oftener emphasised that that Frank Ilttrd wasn't running as: free-trade candidate anel lontl were the jeers thereat. Now that he is defeated, as he was two years asro, behold it is ehangeet into a free trade defeat! In Carlisle's district it was Democratic dissatisfaction over thai one subject that occupies a Democrat’! waking moments and his dreams—office. There was hot resentment ovei the local postoffice spoils and then was a labor candidate in the field * * « * In Morrison's dis trict the protective forces rallied ftron the country at large with bureau$,an< agents and money, Morrison’s de feat was secured just, as the protectioi interest secures legislation in congresi for the special bounties that mak< millionaire monopolists at the expensi of the people. It is a conspicuous warning. It should show the work ing iieople of this eonn’ry how tlx bountyed millionaires pool interests to save their privileges so long as money, practically limitless ii amounts, will save them.

Pulmonary Foisnqrtioi. Dear Sir:—I received the trial bottle of vonr \\ hite Wine of Tar Svnip w hit'll you sent to m.y address. Sly wife has been' troubled with a lung disease for more than eighteen years, and was pronounced to be last'January In the last stages of Pulmonary Consumption. She commenced taking vour valuable medieine and received relief at ouee. She has used three bottles smoentnd is now using the fourth, and her health is better than for many Years We cheerfully recommend it to all afflicted with any trouble of the throat or lungs. We now'gel our medicine through John Potter, our merchant at this place. Yours Respectfully. „ Rev. J.B. Flv BrooktineStation, Mo. Susau E. Ft*. Scrofula of Lungs Relieved. I am now IS years old, and have suffered for the last fifteen years with a lung trouble. Several members of the family on ray mother’s side of the bouse had died with consumption. and the doctors were all agreed in their opinion t lust I had consumption also. 1 had all the distressing symptoms of that terrible disease. 1 have spent thousands of dollars to arrest the march of this disease; 1 have employed all of the usual methods, not only in my own ease, bnt In the treatment of other members of mv family, but temporary relief was all that 1 obtained. I was unfit for any manual labor for several years. By ehanee 1 eame into possession of a pamphlet on “Blood and Skin Diseases,” from the office of Swift Specific Co., Atlanta, Ga. A friend recommended the use at Swift’s Specific, claiming that he himself bad been greatly benetltted l>y Its use in some long troubles. I resolved to try It. About four years ago 1 commenced to take S.S. S. according to directions I found It an invigorattngtontc. and have used about fifty butties. The results arc most remarkable. My cough hasleft me. my strength has returned, and I weigh sixty pounds more than I overdid in my life. It has been three years since 1 stopped the use of the medicine, but I have had no return of the disease, and there are no pains or weakness felt In my lungs. I do the hardest kind of mechanical work, and feel as well as I ever felt since I was a hoy. These, I know, are wonderful statements to make, but I am honest when I say that ] owe my existenceand health to-day that brought me any permanent relief, I do not say that Swift’s Specific will do this in every ease, hut most positively affirm that it has done this much forme, and I would he recreant to the duty I owe tosuffering humanity if I foiled to bear this cheerful testimony to the merits of this wonderful medieine. 1 am well known In the city of Montgomery, and can refer to some of the best citizens in the city.
