U.i Our Tale of Woe.
BffTuesday's election was a quiet one , and
Hk | the vote in McCook small , although
HfitV ) about normal throughout the county.
Hrfu The total vote cast jb 1894 , as against
Bwr 2 ° 32 for McKinley electors at the last
H 'A election. Of this loss fully 100 occurred
Egl | | in McCook. The Populists have elected
Be \ \ county clerk , treasurer , sheriff , and su-
ML | { | perintendent. The Republicans the
| yR > fV county judge , surveyor , coroner , and
HRffj ? commissioner , second district. What
KR | | promised to be a complete victory was ,
H | | through the knifing of McCool by the
HkH ? A. P. A. , turned into almost complete
defeat. This unfortunate and disastrous
fl and deplorable fight dragged down other
. - nominees to defeat , and has opened anew
HEl'i wounds that many have earnestly sought
Bwfir \ to heal. The result is the amplest vindi-
Hwjb cation of the position of The Tribune
W ? ? JL as to the danger and undesirability of
m
MHfcr/1// ) secret order in politics , and has
• W' i opened the eyes of all Republicans to
1 , - the facts set forlu by this PaPer * n the
K2qf Past * Toe official result , as declared by
mmfithe canvassing board yesterday , is given
S % ) \ elsewhere in full tabulated form in this
HP&L - issue.
&p'r And factionalism , when it is finished ,
HE s ' is political death.
• [ ( The bowie-knife will bow be shifted to
fi.1 & the other boot-leg.
KA
HrT Henry Crabtree will feel quite at home
KVI' ' in the office of commissioner.
H , ) Geoige S. Bishop ran like a prairie-
B fire , and he feels finer than silk over his
H | & ' 1 victory.
HHV < was a qu'et day an < * the vote cast in
Vl McCook was over a hundred less than it
BlfV was last year.
LME j Every year brings out new elements ;
H&l and the G. O. P. gets it where the chick-
H vA en S ° t the as , just the same.
BJHLFor the first time in a number of years
HfpFjH the Republicans will have a majority on
Hcthe board of county commissioners.
The National Democrats sustained a
f
Min very heavy loss full one-third of their
KpYstrength. . At the last election they cast
M three votes , and on Tuesday only two
Kffj | J votes.
HPfThe ? manner in which the A. P. A.
Hl/ / v knifed McCool was thorough and not in-
H artistic ; but'it was-sT-costly job the Re-
fttL publican party will be paying for in
Kfyears to come. Yet there are valuable
HR7 % lessons to be learned and profited by.
H Honest John Neel is the only Populist
HKji that has ever carried McCook. Which
Kw ( reminds us of an epitaph :
Hflu "Here lies Mary Ann
Effyl " Pillowed on Abraham's bosom ;
V k\ * It's mighty nice for Mary Ann ,
H K v But rather hard on Abraham. "
B K , By a little paraphrasing the misfortune
HBr ? to the Republican party may in a meas-
w. ure be appreciated. For , that beau-
KkSL ? ' tiful shade of pink and white harmony ,
Kreferred to at the beginning of the cam-
Hkpaign , has assumed a deep carmine hue.
m ? ' It's nice for John , but merry hades for
Dkj the G. O. P.

We are informed that a certain pupil
in one of the upper grades was the re

day , by his teacher , that probably had
accidentally lost temper. This does
not seem strictly in line in a school sys
tem which boasts of its self-government
and no corporeal punishment. It pays
to practice what-s preached.
