6 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. WEDNESDAY. .......November 6, 1895. CROSBY S. NOYES................Editor. WHE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent Family Circulation much more than the combined cir- eulation of the other Washington dailles, As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. (7m order to avoid delays, on ac- eount of personal absence, letters to WHE STAR should not be addressed to any individual connected with the eftice, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Business Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose. = a An Interesting “Of Year. For an off year the elections of 1 proved to be exceptionally interesting. The general tendency toward republicanism that was shown throughout the country proved the fallacy of the belief that the returning Frosperity would be so favorable to the party in power as to cause a reaction from the tidal wave of a year ago that was so disastrous to the democracy. It is note- worthy that not only did the republicans hold their own with large majorities in such strongholds as Massachusetts, Penn- syivama and Iowa, but they checked the democratic tendency in Ohio and New York while accomplishing three decisive victo- ries in states that have hitherto been im- pregnably democratic, Maryland, Ken- tucky and New Jersey. In Kentucky, in view of the political history of the state, the mere fact that the election is close would mean in effect a democratic defeat, but it is now announced that Bradley has a conceded plurality of the votes and that the legislature will be republican on joint ballot, insuring the return of a republican to the United States Senate in place of Mr. Blackburn. This is a positive rebuke to the advocates of an unsound financial sys- tem whe sought in Kentucky to fool the people by running a free-silver candidate on a sound-money platform. Incidentally it is interesting to note that in Illinois ex- Congressman Lane was soundly defeated fer the House mainly because he stood on a free-silver platform. In Maryland the issue was purely local and the results are astounding even to those friends of reform who were most sanguine of success. Mr. Gorman fought as only a man who is struggling for his political life can fight, but the people of the state had learned the lesson that boss- ism is oppressive and dangerous and swept away the last remnant of machine power in both city and state. The result in New York may have an im- portant bearing upon the presidential con- ventions ard shows that the Empire State is under normal circumstances to be count- ed in the republican column. The badly made and poorly managed fusion ticket was defeated in the city and Tammany was returned to a part of its former power largely through the machinations of de- signing pcliticians and an unfortunate mis- understanding on the part of the people of the necessity for persistent work for re- form. Some prophets declare that the de- feat of the fusion ticket means the end of all such combined efforts against Tam- many, but the friends of good civic admin- istration should not be disheartened, but should endeavor to arouse every sulstan- tial interest against the corrupt machine that, it now appears, weathered ene storm of 1894, The New Jersey election gave power to the republicans largely because of the cor- rupt administration of the state’s affairs in the past, culminating In the disgraceful race-track scandals and the recently un- covered frauds on the state treasury. Ohio's election dimmed the chances of Campbell for a presidential nomination and retired Mr. Brice to private life probably in the interest of ex-Governor Foraker. Iowa continued Senator Allison in the public eye while electing a legislature that will un- doubtedly return him to Congress. —_++-+___ Powerfal Agencies for Reform. Political bosses, relying upon the un- doubted strength ef the disciplined organ- izations which render them unquestioning support, have often sneered at the power of the newspapers, but the result of the fight in Maryland, which terminated yes- terday in a knock-out blow to local boss- ism, furnishes additional evidence that the influence of the press upon public opinion is powerful, and that there is nothing the boss has so rauch to dread as its deter- mined opposition. In Baltimore, where the Gorman-Rasin machine has for years been in full sway, and where bossism has flour- ished to an almost unprecedented extent, the campaign this year found the leading dailies, one always republican and the other two always democratic, steadfastly and enthusiastically teaching the lesson of oppesition to the ring and laboring earn- estly for the republican nominees. The American, the Sun—called by some in sup- posed sarcasm but real compliment the Sunpaper—and the News have for weeks been fighting side by side to show the danger to the state in a continuation of machine rule, and the hope for reform held out by the honest efforts of the opposi- tion. It required moral courage of the highest type in democratic papers like the Sun and News to attack the party ma- chine because the interests of the state demanded that course, and to expose them- selves to the flood of partisan vilification which has been poured upon them. Tho result Is a vindication of their action, a testimonial of the continued confidence of their state and city, and a proof of the power of the press. There are more people reading the newspapers today than ever before, and more voters who are able to understand the reasons for intelligent po- litical action, and who can appreciate the issues when they are set forth by an hon- est, fearless and unpurchasable press. The part played by the great papers of Balti- more in the reform fight that has just ended successfully cannot be too highly praised by the friends of good government, wherever they may be found. ——___+ ++ ____ John Bull might read a profitabie lesson fn the recent illustration of this country’s attitude toward would-be bosses of all de- scriptions. ————__+ + > ___ There are differences of opinion as to whether it was a walkover or a runaway. ———~+ e-+__ A Heavy Responsibility. ‘The victors In Maryland will probably real- ize after the first flush of success has passed away that the Indorsement of the people of the state brings with it a grave responsibil- ity In addition to the honor of being entrust- ed with the affairs of the commonwealth. ‘To succeed a political ring that has been in power for many years without successful opposition is to take office under the most trying circumstances and there is no time fn the history of party management when ‘wisdom and caution are so essential. The People who contributed to the result of yesterday’s balloting in Maryland wearied of the burden placed upon them by the men who have bossed the state, and they sought rellef by electing to office the men who promised a better administration of the State's affairs, but the voters will be just as intolerant of a partisan republican machine as they had become of a democratic ma- chine. The republican ticket was chosen because to a majority of the people of the state democracy meant Gormanism and Gormanism meant to them an unscrupulous use of the public offices to personal, mer- cenary ends. An injudicious exercise of the ower given to a reform party succeeding a long-established organization is almost cer- tain to produce reactionary results. The legislature of the state, now republican for the first time in many years, will have, therefore, a difficult task, and one that can be safely accomplished only with the exer- cise of discretion and careful management. The republicans of Maryland will of course interpret for themselves the instructions rendered at the ballot box concerning the reforms essential to the welfare of the state. But as a next-door neighbor, desirous of as close and friendly and mutually profitable relations as may be possible, the District strongly urges (1) systematic and business- like improvement of the roads of the state, the need of which is obvious and undeniable, and (2) a better registration law, encourag- ing the settlement in Maryland of desirable citizens, who will increase the population and thus add to the state's national political strength, and swell the state's agricultural wealth and taxable resources, and thus con- tribute to its material prosperity. Men do- ing business in Washington who are attract- ed to Maryland in search of homes and whose residence within the borders of the state cannot be anything less than an advan- tage, should be warmly welcomed. Other states are wise enough to make the citizen- ship laws so easy of compliance that home seekers with means are attracted in num- bers, but Maryland, under the influence of shortsighted bossism and blind partisanship, has practically closed its doors to such de- sirable residents by refusing them the priv- ilege of voting citizenship except under humiliating and annoying conditions. A law amendatory of these injurious statutes should be one of the first acts of the new legislature. Maryland should greet the in- tending citizen, taxpayer and contributor to the development of the state’s resources with outstretched hand, instead of with a kick. OOo __— The Baltimore board of trade the other day considered the memorial recently sent out by the Cleveland chamber of commerce petitioning the two political parties to shorten the national campaign of 1896 from the customary six months to about three. The result was that a similar resolution was proposed and immediately adopted without a voice of dissent, and thus the voice of reason grows louder. It is well that this movement was inaugurated in such ample season, for by spring doubtless every one of the commercial organizations and similar bodies throughout the country Will have seconded the motion of the Cleve- land business men and possibly other in- stitutions and associations will have fallen in line to swell the protest. —_—_+ + __ Some of the old-lne jemocrats in Ken- tucky are deploring the degeneracy of the times, and averring that it was the visit of the Duke of Marlborough that rattled the blue-grass vote. + e+____ The Tammany kitten that goes to the polls too often is likely to lose all its nine lives in the course of time. —__+ «+ — It is rather pathetic to see the manner in which Father Knickerbocker’s thirst sot the better of him. ———- + oe ___ It looks as if Tammany Aad the money and the reformers were geiting the ex- perience, 0 Mr. Coxey got just enough encouragement to prevent him from going to work.

Mistaken Identity. There was a very rude man at the polls when Willie Wibbles came up to cast his vote. Willie had on a rather flowing pair of knickerbockers, his golfing hose and a jaunty cap. “Go ‘way from here,” said the rude man. “I want to vote,” sald Willie. “Well, you can't do tt. You needn't think that by putting on your bloomers and trying to talk bass you're going to fool anybody. This ain't any woman's suffrage town, and you might as well make up your mind to it.” The Passing of the “Bosses.” Here lies fame—nor pause to frame Fulsome eulogy or sonnet; Put him up a little tombstone With a dollar mark upon it. One More Trial. “Josiar,” said Mrs. Corntossel, “with all yer work an’ worry an’ stayin’ up o’ nights ye didn’t carry the country fur our part “That's what I didn't,” was the melan- choly reply. ane didn't carry the state, neither.” “Ye e didn’ t even carry the township.” “I shorely didn’t.” “Well, Josiar, a wife's confidence never fails. I still believe in yer.” “Thet's down-right kind o’ you, Mandy.” “Ye're carryin’ capacity may not be whut I thort it was, but I'll take one more chance on It. "Spose ye git out o’ the rockin’ chair fur ten minutes an’ try yer han’ at carryin’ a load 0° wood.” Am Election Night Philosopher. He had pressed the downy pillow At the prudent hour of nine; And his bark was on the billow Where the dream-day's always fines Let the rabble hoot and gabble; Youth, betimes, must have its fling. He was proof against disturbance— For the door-bell wouldn't ring. Limp the severed wire dangled; Cold and stark the knob came out When they sought to tell how mangled Bravest hopes were strewn about, He was happy with his napple, Careless if men weep or sing; Far beyond the world’s annoyance, For the door-bell wouldn't ring. ——___+ ++ ____ Good Government and Good Ex: From the Baltimore Sun. As this ts the hour of popular triumph— a@ triumph for which the good men of all parties worked patriotically shoulder to shoulder—so, too, it is the hour of republi- can responsibility. The people have spoken —not a party—and those who are newly charged with public dutles must remember and be guided by this fact if they desire to retain public confidence and suppert. They go into office emphatically and pecu- larly as the servants of the whole people. Their success has been due to the independ- ence and political self-sacrifice of demo- cratic voters. Every consideration of policy, as well as of patriotism, therefore, demands that they should rise to the hetght of the great sentiment which has put the administration of this city and state into their hands, and, setting thelr faces Ike flint against bad influences, bad men and bad methods, give to the people of Mary- land what they have fought for—good gov- ernment and good official examples. ee What the Republic: ber.
