The Coming Change. The clear outlines of 1884, as brought into view by the intense light projected by the recent elec- tion. are as disheartening as possi ble to republicans and as encourag- jng as possible to democrats. The situation could not be better. The promises it gives is next to positive assurance. The plain meaning of the Ohio and Iowa elections is that republicanism *‘must go,’’ and the powers and places of the national government be restored to the de- mocracy. The republican organs may labor as they will to elaborate excuses for their disasters: but they areirreparable. The great western state of Ohio is lost to them beyend construct recovery. state of New York passed out of their hands last November, and will not pass back into their hands next ‘vere struzgle in the shop before they were separated.

Towa, it is true, has given a republican ma- jority, but it is not 80,e00; it is only 25,000, and Iowa has been consid- ered as hopelessly republican as Missouri 1s democratic. It pro- hibition that triumphs by this small majority o Towa, and as reaction gave demo- and is against prohibition a cratic governor to Kansas a year ago, a similar cause may produce a simi- lar change in Iowa may give its vote for the democratic presidential ticket in 1884. The last two years have made wide and ragged gaps in the republican line. Of the thirty-eight states in the Union only twelve have republican governors—TIllinois, Indiana, Lowa, Maine, Minnesota, Nebraska, New Hampshire, Ohio, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont and and last Tuesday’s work will take Wisconsin; Ohio out of the little group and re- duces it to 11.

Justic Harlan dissented. said that ‘tunder ordinary stances and ordinary cases he should He circum- hesitate to set up his individual opinion in opposition to that of his eight colleagues, but in view ot what he thought that the people of this prospect, certainly; and it 1s proba- desperate than it looks; for the republicans are more likely to lose. some of the cleven states than the the bly even more are to regain any of twentv-s When we sce democratic governors presiding over Colorado, Kansas, Michigan, Nevada and Pennsylvania, it is not too much to contemplate a possible condition in the not distant future when state in the Union will be such states as Massachnsetts, every democrat- ic: The republican masses have to a certain extent grown trred ot their party and ics well-worn clap-trap Phraies no longer bring them to the folds. The republican leaders, ail rich, fat aad bleated with indul- gence, have lost their stomach for rugged work, They are lounging in comfortable, judical, senatorial and other official positions; they have beceme book-writers or cor- poration counsel; and trom these easy situations look on_ serenely, while the party stumbles into disas- ter after disaster. The tact that there 1s but one man imall the land credited with seeking the nomina- ton forthe presidency, and the pro- bability that even he will now with- draw from the dismal field, sufficient- ly illustrate the once haughty and despotic party’s pitiable condition. Mr. Arthur may make the most of the remaining days of hts accidental term, for he is the last ot republican presidents. —Mo. Republican. the A Meeting of ola friends. | John H.

It cannot be changed except by an amendment to the constitution made expressly to cover the ground, which was supposed to be covered. The supreme court holds that these two amendments were tor the sole pur- pose ot relieving the negro race trom the condition of slavery, or involun- tary servitude, and the empowering of congress to make the laws necessary effect, but do not authorize any further leg- islation. 10 carry the amendments into That refuseing a person access to a railroad car, or to a hotel, or a theater, is no man so refused evidence that in slavery, though such a refusal may infnng up- on his civit rights. lt is very certain that we have not yet seen the end of this race ques- tion, and there will be something that the colored people may demand of politicians besides appointment to office.—K.
