HOW THEY VIEW IT. Ftl.'

Comment of the New York Papers

on the Election.

?H "if j,

NEW YOBJC, April 6.—The muruing papers oomment at great length on the result of the western elections. The Sun says: "Cincinnati and Chicago are among the most important cities of the upion. Naturally they are bot^ strongly Democratic, and yet in each of them the

Democratic party appears-4o be either utterly demoralized or badly overwhelmed. It may be said that the Democratic patty has been wiped out of Chicago and crushed in Cincinnati In view of sUoh facts, the administration in Washington cannot be held blameless. It there had beea an earnest uncompromising Democratic spirit in the Presidency, an earnest, uncompromising Democratic spirit would have existed and grown potent in every part of the land."

The World says:, "It is superficially correct to say that line Prohibition movement and the Lalxr disaffection have caused the demoralization of the old parties witnessed in recent election.. But what are the causes back of these? What has led the ultra-fcerpperarjce men to organize a third party? What leads laboring men to break away from their old party ties? The Labor movement in politics is the outgrowth of the feeling that our laws and conditions of life created by them are no longer equal that the government is conducted in the interest of the rioh and the privil eged and that the old parties are either unwilling or impotent to remfedj this iniquity and correct existing evils, and the prevalences and permanence of this revolt of labor will depend npOD What shall be done, and done speedily.' to remove all just cause of complaint

We loofc, for good result*

fi om these divisions. They will at leasi tend to bring the old parties to a highej standard of faithfulness to public obligations. There wili be less shirking ano pledge breaking in .congress hereaftei as the result of these'warnings. The liquor interest may learn that the surest way to invite attempts at prohibition it. is to oppose just and needed restrictions upon its traffic. Third and fourth part) movements are the mentors of our pol itics. Let the politician Taeed theii lessons.-'
