Morrison, of Tllinois, will not be present in the fifticth congress. The interests of the distriet ho now represents will be cared for by Mr. Jehu Buker, who is not without experi- ence in this line, having once hefore de- feated Morrison. The latter will be very greatly missed by the tavifl’ reform dem- oorats, but his defeat will doubtle: gratifying to the Randull wing of the party, which did all it could to destroy his influence in congress and deprecinte his efforts before the country: Morri son’s defeat is a damaging blow to his potitical hopes for the future.

The flagrant record of Howe and disgus the repub- lLiean orgunization for injecting the prohitition issue into the canvass were missionaries who converted thousands of republican voters into supporters of a democratic eandidate for congress. The talk of contesting the result is of course arrant nonsense. Church Howe was de- feated before the ballots cast in the cities were counted, Country pr ot after country precinet rebaked his impudent pretensions by snowing him under re- publicun vot It was o political revo- lution which he drew upon himself. There is no shadow of a chance that the popular verdict wiil be set aside, When the Republican padsed into the hunds of the late public printer and bis associutes we extended & warm welcome to the new propr rs. We believed that they meant what they said in announe- ing a new policy for the concern which promised the publie that the paper was entirely divoreed from the olderowd that had piloted the party through the rail road channels to wreck and disgrace, But the editor W al chair has hardly been med by the new editor when the pub- o old song. In the face of the terrible rebuke which re- publicans have admivisteredin cvery county in the district, Church Howe is extolled as u saint and a martyr, and those who have rescuca the | party from ~the disgrace of his ction sre lampoonsd and roasted by the old orgun- of jobbers and monopoly cuppers. The cordial treatmcnt oxtended by this paper is reciprocated by the pub- lication of interviews with disveputable shysters and railroad boodlers who, in THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: FRIDAY their misery, over Howe's defeat, rejorce that the editor of the Bee will not go down to Lincoin this winter. After all, itis just what we have expected. The same old gang, of which Howe was an honored leader, will inspire the political policy of tho rejuvenated readerless. The new type will print what the old crew dictates. ' The new presses will re- volve at lightaing speed, but the paper will continue to travel in the old ruts of the ox-train trail.
