It fore, that i and particularity the. and It is impos: t ea the lecai bu: mise made by the Ch ctimate whole would be shaken. Now, however, that the cloud has been dissipated by the sunli of prosperity that shines in the certainty of McKinley's election, this feeling of hesitancy and fear should no longer be entertained, and the fourth day of November, 1896, ought to mark a material change in the local tinan- cial conditions. Every branch of business has been affected and will probably now feel the reaction. It is safe to assert that employment will be found for the many hundreds who were kept in enforced idte- ness during the months of agitation and uncert: y covered by the campaign that has just closed in a manner so satisfactory to the friends of honesty and purity in government and in business. The depart- mental empleyes are not to be placed on the insecure footing of partisan service, but stand, as before, on the basis of indi- vidual merit. The great n of home- buyers ameng them will feel encouraged in their laudable efforts to provide permaneat places of abode fer themselves and their familtes and to adjust their personal affairs upon lines cf Iberality, true economy, fair- dealing and thrift. Tae outlook today Is that this election hes settled for many years the auestion of the permanence of the merit system, and there is Ittle fear that Washington will again be troubled by such an assault upon its credit and its prosperity as that which has just been so vigorously repelled. +42. The Star's Election viee. The people of the capital have no reason to complain of the manner in which they were served with the news of election. They received the indications pointing to the triumph of the republicans without a moment's delay, and they were jubilating over the result just as soon as were the sound money throngs in the other great centers. The Star contributed more than its share to this end. Its spiendid service of extra editions, bulletin screens and speaking trumpets was never equalled in the history of local journalism. From the first moment of darkness until 3 o'clock this morning the great canvas screens in front of the office were kept ablaze with information. Appreciating the fact that this election was of most vital importance to the people, The Star took every precau- tion and spared no expense to secure full, curate ard prompt information, and the results achieved amply repaid it for its ef- fort. It speaks well for the good nature of the vast throngs in the streets and for the efficiency of the local police that no acci- deat of any consequence occurred on the blockaded thoroughfares, notwithstanding the fact that from 7 o'clock until 1 fully half the population of the city was to be found on or in the vicinity of Pennsylva- nia avenue west of 7th street. Washington- ians are, as a rule, orderly and well-be- haved on all such occasions, and main- tained their reputations for good beha- vior last night, even under the strain of the intense enthusiasm that prevailed on the streets. For the benefit of those who could not venture down town, The extras, giving details of the progress the battle, were sent speeding into every section of the city, and it is safe to say that by midnight the great majority of the peo- ble of the District were ed that Maj. McKinley bad been cho.
