The general election of Tuesdsy 18 nothing less than a political revolu- tion. The republican party, so long acoustomed to victory that it has oa- ressed illustons of invincible strength, has received a orushing defeat. In overy doubtful state ita opponent have swept the field. The most re. doubtable of republican strongholas have yielded to the invasion of the enemy. New York, Pennsylvania, Indiana, Connecticut, Wisconsin and Colorado have swung over to the ! | demooracy, and a democratic governor will preside over the destinies of Mas- sachusctts, Congress ia lost in the 1|lower house, and doubts are enter- tained of the safety of the next sen- ate. A defeat #o overwhelming, so universal, i+ unprecedented ir an off political year, ‘The causes of Tueeday’'s Waterloo are not difficult to discover, In 1876 the republican party came out of the election for president in an actual minority of a quarter of a million votes, and four years after only suo- ooeded through the remarkable per- sonal strength of their candidate and the most desperate campaign in the political annals of our country. For three terms of congress in the last can, the primaries are unanimous and conventions enthusiastic, but the elec- tion are more than uucortain, Tue independents and intelligent .citizons may be ‘‘feather heads,” but they weren’t feather weights, Kven Mr. Conkling will admit tha ‘Mz, Pruxins, of the Bioux Oity Journal, has ueard from the Ninth Towa district. He also knows some- thing more of Nebraska politics than he did a week ago. Tae “‘bolters brigade” in New York succeeded in rolling up 150,000 ma- fority for Governor Cleveland. They couldn’t swallow the Folger and Stove French stew without bolting. WiLs the Republican read General Connor another lecture on loyalty? Thé general carried his countyby over 500 majority, and he will ocoupy a front seat in the next Nebraska state senate. Tag paternal ancestor of Val's $6 clerk wields a good deal of influence in Dodge county, but he can't elect himself to the state senate, even when heo stakes his whole lumber yard on the outcome, emen——— Tux republicans of the niuth lowa district sre to be congratulated on the emphatic rebuke they have ad- ministered to brazen bribery and cor- potate bulldczing in the defeat of $1,000 Anderson, and the eleotion of Mr. Pusey. Tuurrow Wekp, though dying, still retains his faculties. The day bafore election he mado the following perti- neut remark: ‘‘If there had been less time devoted to presidental junket. ing jaud to the classification of the preeident's ‘private papers,’ and fewer cabinet meetings on railroads and in hotels, the present outlook of the re- pub ican party would have been much more satistadtory.” Bos InaersoLL is out for General Sherman as president in 1884, as the only man upon whom all classes of re- publicans can write, .Whether Pope Bob's judgment is at fanlt in this re- spect there can be no question that he strikes the nail on the head when he attributes the republican defeat to the persistent refusal of the party to re- duce taxes, their insane craving after office, and their reckless extravagance in appropriations. Nothing butbitter lessons of defeat could bring these wholesome truths before the party bosses, and if they are appreciatedand woted upon, the election cf a republi- can pre~'“ant two years hence is not 0 imp esibility,. The republican party, ox r +*her the party organization is now on tne mourners bench, and its ©onversion to common sense and ac- word with public sentiment ought to ‘e the one result worthy of congratu- dation as flowing from the late election. four the democrats have controlled the house and the senate has been so close that a ropublican member dare not leave the body without & pair—except at the risk of destroying the party majority, Under these circumstances, in the presence of a watchful and united opposition, the republican par- ty has turned a deaf ear to the popu- lar demands for a reduction of taxa- ation and for reform in the adminis- tration of national affairs. Sel- fish personal considerations and the arrogant rule of the bosses has deatroyed the party harmony in a half » dozen states, while to cap the cli- max the uncalled for interference of the national administration in New York, the charges of fraud in the nomination of governor and the in- troduction of the most sinister in- fluences in the campaign changed a republican majority of over 20,000 to a democratic viotory of nearly 150,- 000 majority. It would be folly to assumo that in- creasing confidence in the democratic party to meet the questions which the republicans have refused to solve is responsible for the republican defeat. The independents and intelligent vo- ters have simply punished the repub- licans for neglecting to solve them, They have discharged the servauts of the people tor refusing to obey their masters, They have passed their judgment upon the assertion that twenty or thirty political managers own the party. They have denounced the defiance of public opin- ion by Jay Hubbell's committee, the wretohed drill of the house of repre- sentatives by Robeson and Koeifer, the obstinate resistance of party man- agera to the popular demands for the reduotion of taxation and revenue re- form, and the reckless waste of the surplus in the treasury on such jobs as the river and harbor bill, As parties are hero constituted the only means of defeating the republi- oan bosses was through giving the vie- tory to the democrats. The alterna- tive wasbravely accepted by thousands of staunch adherents to republi- can prinoiples throughout the country. The lesscn of the election is, that par- ties and party managers are, and will be held responsible to their constitu- ents; that they may for a time evade the responsibility only to find it forced upon them in the form of such a crushing overthrow as that which took place at the polls on Tuesday. STATE AND COUNTY. The oyclone which has swept over the east has also taken in Nebraska, The causes of republican disaster in this state must be ascribed to the con- trol of the machinery of the dominant party of the corporations, For the first time since the admission of Ne- braska to the union the republicans will elect their state ticket by a plural- ity only. They will loso one of the principal stato ofticers, the treasur- ership, and probably a regent of the university, Loran OClark is beaten by Mr, Sturdevant, who was supported both by ghe anti-monopo- lisis and democrate, 'This is the most wholesome lesson taught by the cam- paign, It demounstrates that even in a state with 30,000 majority, the repub- lican party must hereatter take care that notorious jobbers and railroad cappers shall not be forced on the ticket, Returns from the Third district so far indicate Valontine's defeat, ahd there too the republicans who refuse tobow to the dictates of monopely have struck a blow that will be felt for many years for honest governwment, In the Second distriot Mr, Laird may pull through by the skin of his teeth, and if he does so it will be by the railroad vote. Judge Weaver's wajority in the Firet dis- trict will be comparatively light, and that maioly on scoount of the outra- geous gerrymander in putting Douglas county with the South Platte, The legislature is beyond doubt anti-monopoly by & good working ma- jority. In Douglas county the dem- ocratic anti-monopoly candidates are elected by from 1,600 to 2,000 major- ity. The contest between Canfield (dem.) and Dewey rep.) will be very close. The democrata will doubtiess elect two-thirde of the house and three or four republicans may squeeze through by very small majorities. Woman suffrage has met with a sig- nal defeat, not only in this county, but in the state, and the question ia at least settlod for many years to come, The Germans, as a body, have gone over to the democracy in Nebraska as they have in Ohio and Towa. The prohibition craze 1s mainly responsible for this, On the whole, Nebraska can be con- gratulated upon the good work. THE TARIIF COMMISSION The tariff commission has finished its labors, After lounging by the sea. shore for weeks, and then making a grand tour of seven thousand miles, visiting many pleasant cities at the public expense and interviewing a hundred or so manufacturers, to the cheerful accompaniment of the pop- ing of champagne corks, the commis- sion is prepared to report in a volume of two thousand pages ‘“tin favor of making the least possible number of changes, and none of them important, in the existing tariff.” Thus ends an expensive farce, The comminsion has justified the predic- tions of its worat enemies, and the se- rious work of revising the tariff goos back to the representatives of the peo- ple, to whom it belongs. The com- mission as charged by General Van Wyck and others is a makeshift designed only fo postpone revision in the interest of the beneficiaries of tariff abuses, It was packed in favor of monopolist manufacturers, Several of its members had a direct interest in maintaining the present enormcus imposts on dutiable articles, Its de- signers have accomplished their ob- ject, which was to postpone indefi- nitely tariff revision, No one denies that the task of revis- ing the tariff ought to have beem undertaken long ago. With an impost of §260,000,000 annually from ous- toms, of which §200,000,000 goes to the manufacturer as a bonus, and the remainder to the government, with an overflowing revenue which offers in- creasing inducements to lavish and ex- travagant appropriatfons, the tariff ought at once to receive attention through such a reduction as will ro- iieve the people who are taxed by its provisions, without crippling the gov- ernment. The people demand a prompt reduction cf the revenue. They will not be content, with Judge Kelley, to see the taxes taken from tobacco and whiskey and retained on clothes and other articles of domestic con- sumption, o) The republican majority in the three months which remain may win back a portien of the public confidence which has been taken from them, if they undertake and complete the work of T relieving the people of the burden of an unnecessary taxation. A surplus revenue of $140,000,000 is worse than useless, It is criminal, Miss Couzens lost her temper last night, and in losing it lost the xympa. thy of her audience at Boyd's opera house. That the criticism of Tur Bee upon her uncalled for and in- decent remarks at the Fourth ward poll on Tuesday was just and timely the loud hisses of the audience last night attested when she repeated the same remarks for which she was called to account in these columns, Mrs. Couzens, in common with many other ladies, who, like herself, feed on noto- riety, fails to understand that there can be any such thing as an honest difference of opinion in polities, It was her failure to appreciate this fact which led to her performances of Tuesday afternoon and last evening, It is safe to say that if the woman sufirage question ever comes before Omaha again for adjudication it will be defeated by a much more over- whelming majority than that which has now sunowed it under, and no one will have contributed more to such a result than Miss Couzins, whose im- polite and vinegar flavored utterances have alienated many who betore her advent were strong supporters of the peculiar 'ism which she advocates. When a woman 8o far lowers herself as to appeal to personal violence against those who differ from her upon purely economic questiovs she places herself out of the pale of that chivalry which even the self-defend. ent suffragists appeal for from the op- posite eex, If Miss Couzine and her friends could have heard the remarks from our best citizens which greeted her indecent tirade at the Fourth ward poll on Tuesday when My, Hitchcock was 8o grossly iusulted, she would have less to say about ‘‘big brothers,” and the guns which her great, great grandfather broke over his koee in the riots in St. Louis, They might perhaps, afford her ground for reflection over the difference be- tween a courteous debater on a de- batable question aud & common brawler, ———— Ouvrce Hows has been buried so deep that the trumpet of Gabriel will not resurrest him, He wanted to be congressman and went to grass; he ran for lieutenant governor and got left. And now the delegation for the legislature he set up in Nemaha to trade on in the senatorial campaign is defeated by sn overwhelming ma- jority, although they were fair men and round republicans—just lecause they were nominated by Church Howe's convention, " THE ELECTION.
