We give our readers today a few facts
illustrative of the difference between the
results of the recent national election in
Nebraska and South Carolina. The fig
ures are eloquent witnesses showing
the difference between a state where a
fair election is held and one where the
solid south plan is observed.
The New Jersey Prohibitionists, by
superhuman exertions, succeeded in put
ting t'se free-whisky Democracy into
power in the legislature of that state,
thus insuring the repeal of all the tem

publicans. A fearful and wonderful

The official returns of the state of New
York are in and they show that Harrison's
plurality is 13,399 and Hill's 18,822
votes ahead of Miller, and Hill 12,093
ahead of Cleveland, while the Prohibi
tion vote (30,692) is 5,693 larger than in
1884; it i worthy of special note that it
is smaller than in any yearsince, and 11,
158 less than last year. This is the di
rect result of the steady fight made by
Mr. Miller on an uncompromising tem
perance platform.
LOYALTY AND ED UCA TH )N.
This Nation has reason to be proud of
its late election. When more than sixty
million of people express thtir will
through the ballot box, without rioting
or bloodshed in any State, the ! spectacle
is one which may well excite admiration.
When the decision of the ooplc is
reached without even the scrioGs suspi
cion of fraud in either of the great states
upon which the result turns for no sane
citiz.en of either party really supposes that
the plurality in this State or Indiana was
attained by fraudulent returns or by
fraudulent means of any kind that also
is a fact of which the country may be
proud, And again, for the second time
in live years, a great political party in
full control of the Administration, the
House of Iteprcseutitives, the Treasury,
the Army and the Navy, promptly ac
quiesces in the declared will of the
people transferring all the power to a
different party, and prepares peacefully
to surrender its trust. No grander proof
of the self-tfovcruintr ability of the
people could be given than this instant
and peaceful obedience to the decision
of voters.
It is not forgotten that the south is
still an anachronism. Elections there do
not yet faithfully represent the will of
the whole people. A few hot-heads,
mainly from that section have been
scheming to defeat the choice of the
people in the election of congressmen
Southern Democrrcy does not as yet
come up to the standard of a genuine
Americanism. But for the south also a
better day is dawning, and it may be
hoped that an honest election and a loyal
acceptance of the resalt are not far
distant for the people of that section
The election of General Harrison there
is no reason to hope may make the end
of th3 attempt of Southern politicians to
Jule a great nation by a . sectional
solidity attained through methods at
war with the Constitution and the laws,
For thj present let the South stand aside
n t yet quite worthy of American free
dom. Think for the moment how grand
is the spectacle presented in other States
where probably not far from nine mill
ions of freed men have deposited their
ballot -t in peace and perfect freedom,
and where the declared results are in
stantly accepted by two great and nearly
equal parties.
If there have been 9,000,000 votes cast
in the states formerly free, the republican
plurality will not be far from one-twen
tieth of that number. It is as if forty
votes had been cast, 21 for one party and
19 fur the other. Strange, we may well
reflect, that the division here should be
so nearly equal; it would not be if the
work of educating the voters had been
more faithfully performed. But' the
great fact is that the voters, perhaps a
quarter of a million in number, who have
turned the scale have been convinced by
experience and argument, many of them
within a few weeks of ardent popular
discussion, and no one imagines that even
as much as a hundredth part of the entire
vote was affected by fraud or bribery,
while the niueteen prepare as promptly
and peacefully to lay down their power
as if the majority against them had been
three or four times as great " That is
loyalty, and without genuine loyalty a
true government by the people cannot
live.
Self-congratulation is not the only
lesson of the hour. 1 tie situation was

instead of a majority of 2 in 40 votes.
There was not, because the work of edu
cating voters had been long neglected
Readers will remember that it has for
years been urged in these columns that
the republican party could insure a popu
lar support of Its principles only by con
stant and thorough education of voters
upon the questions chiefly disputed be
tweeu parties. The recent result proved
two things: First, that the process of
education was not ineffective, though in
the in lin neglected until the most favor
able time had passed; and second, that
it was neglected so long that there was
serious danger of an adverse decision.
i.'ost of the actiye politicians have

are in fact mainly influenced, not by the
clap-trap of campaign platforms and
speeches, not by brass bands and torches
not even by catch-words and tricks and
political dodges, but by sincere opinions
deliberately and Kradually formed.
When candidates were nominated last
July more than nine-tenths of the voters
had formed opinions which they did not

CONCERNINO THE COLORED
J'EOPL E.
Bishop Arnett, of the African Metho
dist church in South Cir-lina, takes a
very sensible view of t'u : .1 ttion of the
recent republican victo: y to tin; interests
of the colored ponui tiii tf the country.
"I do not see," h : s lys, "tli.it it makes
much diffeienc.; to us who is president,
provided the incumbent is an honest,
God-fearing man, ami administers the
laws faithfully and impartially." That
is to say, he believes Unit the colored
people have their salvation in their own
hands, and can not expect to derive any
special benefit as a race from the restora
tion of the republican party to power,
beyond that of securing a fair chance
with all other classes of citi.cus. They
can not hope to have miracles wrought
for their particular advantage. The re
publican party is under no obligation to
make life any easier for them than it is
for the majority of white people. They
are nut entitled to any more favor than
other citizens who are obliged to push
themselves ahead in the world by their
own industry, frugality and courageous
perseverance; and the sooner they accept
this fact the better it will be for them in
every wuy.
Over twenty years have passed since
slavery was abolished, and tha freedmen
have had all that time in which to adapt
themselves to the new order of things,
and to learn the philosophy of self-support
and self-defense. If they have not
qualified themselves by this long experi
ence for the task of competing with
other laborers and gaining a fair share of
the rewards which come everywhere to
honest and determined endeavor, then
nothing that the republican party is per
mitted to do for them can enable them to
get along any better. They have out
lived the evil influences of slavery by this
time, or they are incapable of ever doing
so. The republican party sympathizes
with them and wishes them to prosper
and to live contented and happy. But
it can not undertake to legislate them
into a sort of colored paradise, any more
than it can undertake thus to create a
white paradise for the millions of north
ern people for whom it feels an equal
sympathy and would be quite as glad to
deliver from all adverse conditions. The
time has long since gone by for pleading
the wrongs and sorrows of the slave sys
tem as an excuse for laws and policies
designed to help one class over another.
It is the duty of the colored people to
rely upon themselves, and not upon any
party, or any political scheme of relief
and progress. They are entitled to the
same rights and opportunities that are
guaranteed to white men, and the next
administration will see that the laws are
enforced in an equal and fair way as to
both races If they look for any more
than that, they are certain to be disap
pointed; and their leading men should
imitate Bishop Arnett in warning v
against the folly of hop:ng for sin.

It is to be resireted that any port',
of the democratic press or party, can -be
found in the north rejoicing over a solid
soutli yet, such is bouibonism in all "its
repulsivencss. Listen to the Journal of
last evening, chuckling oyer the supposed
fact that the republicans did not carry
the two states of Virginia, and thus break
up the " solid 'south ". The republicans
did fairly carry both of these states and
no well-informed man doubts the fact.
The time has come when the demo
cratic party of the south should be taught
that the election franchise is not a thing
of fraud to be used by a class aristocracy
solely for the purpose of a minority rul
ing the majority. The Virginias present
a first-class starting point for this reform.
Men like Gen. Goff and Mahone have the
courage and followers in those states to
see that republican votes are counted and
we hope it will bs done. Just as soon
as the confederate bulldozer finds he
has to face the music with men . of
influence and courage after him, he
will begin to recognize the new order
of things decreed by the late election.
The overwhelming republican majority
in this country and the return of the re
publican party to powei in the American
congress means that a republican govern
ment in fact as well as form is to be
guaranteed the people of the whole union.
If it must come with a revolution in
the states where suffrage is made a
byeword and a mockery let the revo
lution come. We have had enough,
more than enough, of rebellions
fraud and Mexican polit'cs in the so-
called Solid Soutli. It is a fact that in
the Richmond district alone, enough re
publican voters were cooly prevented
from voting by the shameful trickery of
democratic election judges who kept
them standing in lines, until the polls
closed, under the pretext that the act
and resolution submitting a constitu
tional amendment had to be solemnly
read to each voter before he put his bal
lot in the box, while in the other voting
precincts the republican voters were
driven from the polls. These things
must cease and under the new order of
things it should bj attended q at oncfl.

THE 8 URPL US PROBL EM A OA IN
Two of the leading financial journals
of the country have just submitted plans
for the solution of the surplus problem.
The New York Financial Chronicle
proposes the repeal of the entire internal
revenue system, and the New York Com
mercial Bulletin suggests that the senate
pass its tariff bill, and that in conference
the three principal features of that meas
ure be agreed upon between senate and
house. The Chronicle's plan would, on
the basis of the receipts in the past two
fiscal years, cut down the government's
annual income to the extent of about
$120,000,000. To meet the objection
that the receipts from customs and mis
cellaneous sources would not meet the
expenses of the government, the Chroni
cle proposes the repeal of the sinking
fund act also. The Bulletin's plan would
cut off about $04,000,000 from the
federal income $30,000,000 from the
repeal of certain internal taxes, $29,000,
000 from the reduction of the duty on
sugar, and $5,000,000 from the imports
placed on the free list.
The Chronicle's scheme, although far
from being novel, possesses, in a striking
degree, the virtue of simplicity. We can
not, however, discover any other virtue
in it. A majority of the republicans as
well as a majority of the democrats
undoubtedly favor the removal of the
taxes n tobacco and on the alcohol used
in the arts, but not one out of fifty would
contenance the abolition of the tax on
whiskey in any contiiiL.""-v now insight.
The Bulletin's m t! - l h.s the merit
of being sensible and Laical. The
republicans can urge m weighty objec
tions against it b. catH'.- it makes no alter
ation in the bill framed by the republi
can senate except in dropping that por
tior changing duties on metals and
textiles.. Nor can any objection be
reasonably made to this scheme by the
democrats. As far as it goes it is in line
with the policy of both parties. Never
theless there is not the slightest probabil
ity that the surplus problem will be
solved by the Fiftieth congress, on this
or any other plan. Globe Democrat.
Here is a gain of over 70,000 in the
Republican pluralities in the twenty two
northern states, a gain obtained in spite
of the most vigorous campaign and lav
ish expenditure of money the democrat,
have made in a quarter of a ceutury.
With the national administration and all
the offices practically in their hands they
were not only not able to make any ad
vance, but lost ground: But even tin
showing does not give the full democrat
ic loss. The democrats were also unabb
to maintain their standing in the eigh

The estimated majorities may be too

tier of states that has been regarded as
soli lly democratic it is instructive to
look at the republican pluralities in the

boasted so loudly that they would make
gains. This is the showing for this year
and for four years ago:

The lesson taught by these figures is so
plain that he who runs may read. They
prove indisputably that the hold of the
republican party on the northern states
has been sensibly strengthened - and that
the grasp of the democracy on the south
ern states is sensinly weakening.

Moines river is steadily go:ng on, but
Governor Larrabee does not propose to
allow federal officers who are evicting
the unfortunate settlers on the Des Moin

governor has instructed the county at
torney to satisfy himself in every instanct
of eviction that none but legal measures
are resorted to by the United States mar
shal and his deputies Governor Larra
bee has properly shown a regard to pro

have a salutary effect in restraining the
federal officers, froni harsh and illegal
actions, and the people of Iowa will not

President IIahhison was counted
only 13,000 votes iu the state of South
Carolina which contains a voting popu
lation of at least iJOO.OOO electors. Does
any honest democrat believe a national
election was held in that state which
should be permitted to stand one mo
ment? With a population of at least 1,-
500,800 souls during one of the most ex
citing national elections known in the
history of this country, South Carolina
cast only 7!),50." votes, hardly one vote
in three of her voting population. The
average vote in her seven congressional
districts was but 11,306, in a majority ol
which, not a republican vote was count
d. The second congressional district of
Nebraska casts but 1,900 less votes than
is cast for the entire congressional dele
gation of South Carolina. In other
words, the second congressional ditrict
of this state cast, in round numbers, at
the late election, ?jf,000 and the entire
state of South Carolina with her seven
congressional district, casts 79,50 .
