WOMAN suffrage has run up against a frost out in Washington state iu the defeat of the constitutional amend ment proposing to extend the fran chise to women. The experiment with women suffrage in Colorado and Wy oming has evidently not been the glit tering success that would lead the states further west to emulate their example, especially in a year that is unfavorable to all tho isms. THE Democrats are a little ahead yet in New York in the number of Governors chosen in the past third of a century, but Itoosevelt will help to make their preponderance smaller. It is bound to disappear before long. New York will continue to be reliabh Republican on all the issues now be fore the country. Like Connecticut, New Jersey and Indiann, it has taken itself out of the doubtful list and got into the Republican column. The wave of discontent, which raached it height when the crop fail ures of the last few years had landed in olca the pops state ticket with the legislature the same, has been of in estimable value to the republican party, as it has caused them to thrust oK the camp followers which is bound to infest the outskirts of any success ful political organization. The party of progress and prosperity, is now clear of all who have been allied to it for "revenue only," and its ultimata and abiding success is assured in tho near future. The Iowa state crop report giro lier ures which almost appall one with their magnitude, when a due consider ation is taken as to what they really are. They give corn 8:.bt!l),000 biish els; oats, 141.S75.000 bushels; wheat, 24,300,000 bushels; barley, H t,::0HU bushels and rya 3,57o,i.oij bushels. With prices that are good, and '-. inch makes farming pay noi withsinnd :ng the fact of Sidney J. Kent's cir.-u ar letter. The 50,000 republican in j r ity should hava been 150,U0;i, had iho Iowa farmers appriciated how nature had been to them in her bi un teous crop. LlXO Lvchiessi, the llallian anar chist,who a&sasinated Empress Eliza beth of Austria on September 10, was sentenced to life imprisonment, tho most severe penalty that could be im posed under Swiss laws In receiving his sentence, Luchessi bowerl very politely and said "long live anarchy." The luws seem not nearly a9 severe as they should be, while the conditions that exist in the continnental countriea are not as they should be. Tho campaign that these anarchists have inaugurated will in no way solve the ditlicult problem. Tho 'vn oxllunco of tucb au organization ij(;.iUl b(i sl d out i 'i.'LD not ttiotto forty-eight dele- cs which were bo unccrcmonously thrust through the transom at the pop convention at Louisville have been of good service in the demopop machine in the elect ion which has ju-t p ist.

IT is not ponioio to say with v. n th" seriiolattco of wuthth .t the co-t of commodities has been appreciably en hanced or ever, enehaneed at all by the Dingly Tariff during the ti r-t year of its operation. It has indeed helped the revival of m'uiy industries and the em ployment of multitudes who had been idle and thus has created a much broader demand for the products of all labor, while enlarging the working foreo. On the other hand, iti- equally obvious that the scarcity of inonoy has not enabled an v body to establish m nopoly prices for commodities or to maintain unnatural rales of interest for money. The instant ttie current rates here Iihvo advanced above ike low rates prevailing in other coun tries, gold has poured iuto thism.r ket The proposition of an exposition p.t Omaha next year, or in other words, a continuation of the Trans-Mississippi for next year, is now occupying the minds of prominent Omaha people, the building trades have been inter ested iu the scheme, and have taken to it very favorably. Truly the expo sition has been a great advertisement to tho state and especially has Omaha derived much benefit from it being held there. Though we were engaged in a war with a foreign country during a large part ot the time, the exposi tion proved a success bevond the most sanguine expectation. Whiie Omaha derived much benefit from having s :eh a great show, it seems hardly ;) ob.i!.e that to hold it another ses--loti ouid result in as great a success, u.lhoiiirii, much of the expense, such as miKl be required to get things in .-b.ipo, would be saved. VV HILE the southern slates showed i proper spiritduring the war and the -outljcro troops were among the first of tho army, wnen the wtr was over and the election of another congress was tho issue, the south was again solidly arrayed against the adminis tration, although, thc;y know full well that the issue of the war had to De settled, and that the president should have the hearty support of all in that settlement. Still by it votes, the outh have saia we will not support the administration, is the settlement of the war issue upon an American idea. Nevertheless, there has been tound au abundance of patriotic voteis who have thought otherwise for the cou.ing congress will be such as will fu.ly support the president, and little iq eolation or satisfaction can be got ten by Spain or her friends out of the recent elections here. Ri TUBbLICANS Irom the rural dis tricts of Nebraska have viewed with unfeigned disgust the actions of on E. Rosowater and auother J. L. Web ster during tho past campaign. Ol the two. Rosewater is the greater sin ner. Webster never bad the remotest chance of becoming senator; he had a right to aspire to that office, and his efloi ts toward electing republicans to the legislature should have been wel comed by Mr. Rosewater, who, if ru mor is correct, was not averse to re ceiving the support of the Webster black sheep for the Bee's preferred candidate for county attorney. The unseemly squabble precipitated by Rosewater has cost the republicans of Nebraska the election of their entire state ticKet, and was a sin too grievi ous to De lorgotten. Kosewater was too astute a politician to believe ftr one moment that Webster would be elected to the senate. Every consid eration of state and national honor, as well as political expediency dicte.tid that the Bee pursue a different course from that chosen by its managers. The daily cries of "stop thief" directed by Rosewater again9t Webster will de lude no thinking,unbiased republican. INFORMATION AM) OPINION.

Not for a quarter of a century has an au ministration received such an ondorr-ement in the off year elections as that given la.-t Tuesday. Th rula has been strongly the other way, tho successful party in presidential years almost invariably meeting with a reverse in the succeeding olr year elec tions. It would, therefore, have ben remarkable if the country had sup ported tho president even feebly. But when it sustains him almost as strongly as it aid two years ago the result is phenomenal. The republi can have carried practically every northern state from ocean to ocean. East cf the Mississippi there are no breaks in the republican column. In the west the gains are surprising.
