'Olftlio'total arriving 457,257 weraim
migrants. Tha death rate among tliie
large number was remarkably small ,
only 200 having died durinc tho.voy
age. The amount of American travel
abroad was. prodigiously in excess of
foreign visitations to the new world ,
50,200 returning cHbusna of the United
Status beinp among the arrivals , and
only 50,939 foreigners who came whli

THE Herald goes inlo convulsions
_ < ! .thTBterie8 over the republican
praises of Hancock's personal charac
ter , and speaks of the personal vitu
peration which the defunct candidate
received oilbo hands of his opponents
during . .tHo.campaign. . The editor of
*
theJ5rpWknowa perfectly well that
lliero has never been a political cam
paign so free from slander on the rc-
publicad Bi36 aa this self same cam
paign of 1880. Manhal Jewell made
it hia boastvthat In the 7,000,000 cam
paign documents distributed by thu
r.uatipnal.conunittco thcro was not ono
word of abu .o against the democratic
candidate. General Hancock's per-
abnal character vras not assailed. Ho
"wSa given duo credit for his loyalty
-services.to the government. As
n soldier , General Hancock was in bia
proper place. As a president
ho ' would hare been an unfit
representative of the people.
Lot the Herald compare the republican
conduct of the campaign with that of
its own -parly. No slander was too
vile , no vituperation too filthy , no forgery -
gory too transparent , for the pnrprses
of the chairman of the democratic na-
, r-Uonal committee. The people were
* mot slow'to perceive the difference ,
- AHdlTio democratic defeat is largely
duo to the shameful abuse heaped by
the democracy on the head of J.imcs
A. Garfield.
THE extent of the terrorism among
landlords created by the Land League
may bo seen from an account , of the
measures now taken in Ireland by
land owners to protect themselves
ngaiuat t&o attack of the angry peas
antry. It is stated in an English ex
change that Irish landlords now
clothe themselves in steel , bullet-proof
j ickola , for protection against the at

miil consists of a jacket of Scotch
tweed wadded with a thin layer of
cotton. t Ineido of this is a layer of

THESPpLKERSHlP. ,
Church Hflwe is already on his trav-J
ela for the epeakershTp of tbe house ,
and boas'a that the railroads will back
him for the position. Every respect
able man in Nebraska knows by this
time that Church Howe is a very dan
gerous man Tn a legislalurel" "HiTS"
active , unscrupulous , unprincipled
and corrupt tothe _ core. To make
htm speaker 6 ? the house would bb a
surrender at the outeet to the most
dangerous elements that beset our
state legislature. Tt would be a dead
give-away to the jobbers In the lobby , !
and an abandonment of the plajk in
the republican platform that pledges
the legislature to enact laws to correct
abuses and pt event extortion by rail
way corporations. Church Howe , as
speaker of the house wou'd not only
pack the committees with the cappers
and tools of the railways , but ho
would also see to it that the public
thieves and plunderers , who always
swarm around the capital when the
legislature is in session , would have a
carnival of jobbery. The friends of
honest government must make the
issue on the epaakershlc. No man
who pretends to honesty , and no
. x lm in nledffpd to his constitu
ents to protect them from monopoly
aggression , can vote for Church
Howe. Every man - that does
vote for him will bo marked as a
traitor to the people and betrayer of
public trusts , unworthy to represent
any constituency. The lines 5n that
contest will be sharply drawn and the
reoplo all over the etate trill watch it
with intense interest. It will be im
possible for any member of the lower
house to dodge the Issue. Every
Tote given by a member goes upon the
recorJ , and if he votes for Church
Howe his constituents will know the
reason why.
DOANE AND HOWE.
As toDoane and Howe , they are of
no consequence anyhow. They can
rattle around in their stolen seats as
much"as they may , and the utmost
they can do will be to be tolerated as
we would tolerate a pur of ijauny
jackdawsor noisy cockatoos. [ Repub
lican.
lican.Tho
The abuse which the Union Pacific
monopoly or an grinders have
xhowered upon Messrs. Sowo and
Doano will only disgust all decent'and
respectable citizens of Omahai and
Dougli\a county. Both tho'gentlemen
are too widely known and respected to
suffer a particle from the mud thrown
at them by the Republican. Both are
eminent members of their profession
whoso abilities at the bar are recog
nized throughout the west as of the
first order , and both are possessors
of unimpcachiblo personal characters
which cm laugh at the assaults
of corrnptionists and monopoly tools.
SincaNebraska became a state , Dong-
las county has had no senators so fit
ted in every # ay to represent her in
terests and do credit to the intelli
gence of her people. The true ex
planation of the Republican's hostility
to Messrs Doane and Howe , lies in
the fact that it was largely dun totlijjr
effort that the Holly job , in vrWeh
the Republican had a large finger , was
defeated. The loss of a prospective
$5,000 plum , naturally made the cor
rupt sheet , which feeds on railroad
pap , dieguited and sore. They are all
the more sore because they know that
SenatorsJDoane and Howe can neither
ba bsught nor bribed and will refuse
to lend themselves to any scheme of
pjbllo plunder. Such men the Rc-
pubicnn naturally does not afiliato
with , and our-peoplo have just cause
for congratulation that they have
eloted eenatora eo fitted in every
qualification to represent the senti
ments and wishes of the largest and
wealthiest county in the state. ' -
A DEPUKCT PAiTY.
The Chicago JVetrj was. a rampant
Grant paper las't spring. After Gar-
field's nomination it flopped over to
the democracy and gave-Hancock vig-
orcuj support through the entire cam-
piign. Three days after the election
it pronounces the following funeral
oration over the democratic corps :
The man who talks about.the demo
cratic parly as an exiating-party , and
who predicts that it will carry the
next election , is a purblind fool. The
democratic party is dead , dead , DEAD !
No IT let t bo birjied.
In the campaign that has just closed
it was a mountain upon the back of
the presidential nominee. Hancock
would have made a better race had , ho
been the candidate of a Rhode Island
sewing society. No man worthy Iho
presidential office will ever again con
sent to bo the candidate of the demo
cratic parly.
The democratic party ii composed
of two classes , viz. : the old bonrbpn ,
states' rights , nover'loarn-anything
faction , and the hoaeat pocplo , who
can find no other standpoint fcr oppo
sition to the corruption of the domi
nant party. The former class pre
dominate. They , with Barnum and
English , and Bayard , and Hampton ,
and Hill a % their leaders , have borne
down Hancock and Trumbull , and all
tbe honest , loyal element , and in
duced a crashing defeat. They will
never do tt again. The democratic
patty is dead.
The flat of this country is irrevocable -
cable eithiyrthe rebel nor the copper
head shall ever control its counsels.
Disloyalty is the leprosy with which
democracy is stricken , and not even
1000 Hancocks would be sufficient to
care it.
Perhaps , after all , it is right that it
should be so. The world will honor
the spirit which so stubbornly refuses
to permit any semblance of rebel
domination. J3ut while we thus bury
forever the democratic party , let us
have some care as to the character of
the republican party , into whose
hand * wo have * o generously com
mitted the keeping of our fortunes as
a nation.
PILGRIMS are beginning to wend

The Supreme Court.
fit. Lonii Globe-Democrat ,
Among the many causes of congratu
lation over the result of the 'election ,
none lie deeper than the rejoicings
which will everywhere be felt over
the escape of the Supreme Court from
the distruction with which it wajincn-
.acedin. the event of democratic vic
tory. It would have been not only a
disturbance , but a loss to every public
interest , if our mail service and our
revenue service and other executive
departments of the government had i
bsen handed over to the hungry
hordes who stood eagerly awaiting the
partition of the spoilsjjbut this country
is so greai and so prcsperovs that it
might- have endured this infliction.
The obliteration of the Supreme Court
however , and the remodeling of that
.tribunal in the interestsrof partisan
ship , would have been the beginning
of the work of destruction , and a na
tion which had'mado itself the accom
plice in the ! work jof prostituting its
*
judical Tribunal woulS have been
powerles to arrest the farther inroads
upon our cherished institutions which
could not have failed to follow eo
shameless an usurpation.
While we acquit the democratic
leaders ofany deliberate purpose to
abolish at one fell swoop one of the
thrco great co-ordinate departments
of the government , the party was
committed to a purpose which could
bo carried out by no milder methods.
The decision of the electoral commia-
. ? nM / a l i'l * $ * * * I l f + Ko f\Q- \
mccrats a prejudice against the su
preme court which was all the stronger
because it was utterly devoid of reas
on. This prejudice was re-enforced
by the solfien and personal interests of
the controlling majority of the party ,
which had steadily dissented from the
decisions of the supreme court. Even
if there had been any disposition on
the part of the lesders to resist the
popular pressure to swamp the court ,
the leaders themselves were committed
to the opinion that the court
was a pariisan body , biased * in
its opinion and mistaken in its law.
With a democratic majority in con
trol of tha government it would
have been irapossiblu to resist the de
mand for a reorganization of taa
court , andBIr.-JIann.ng's indiscreet *
bill of last spriog of which wo may
now hope that we have finally seen
the last , represents very closely the
common democratic opinion as to
what would have" been the proper way
to ma\a the improvement. Now the
men who would have been called in
to make the majority in the now
supreme court arc precisely the men
who had committed themselves to the
opinion that the amendments were not
valid , and they would have had no
choice but to set aside the constitution
as far as it conflicted with the views of
the late rebels.
The judge who takes a seat on the
bench for the purpose of delivering
a decision agreed upon before taking
office is not in any sense of the word
a judicial officer } he is a mere tool of
the party , , his court a mart in which
the legal rights of the people are bar
tered away. It is doubtful whether
any institution of the government
could have withstood the corroding
and decaying influences which would
have followed the debasement of the
supreme court From this danger we
have beau hnoptiy delivered , but only
by the su e s of the republican par
ty , aud among that p.iriv'a c'aima to
the confidence and gratitude of the
American people not the lesst is the
claim that it has saved the supreme
court. .
The Anti-Masonic Defeat.
New York Times , Nov. fi.
Up to the present honr there is
good reason for believing- that the
anti.Miaonic candidates for the presi
dency and vice-j residency have been
defeated. It ia tfne that there are re
mote districts frit which n j returns
have yet been rtcoived , but it is hop-
ins ; ng iiin * ; hope to imagine that the
returns from thct > o districts , when
they do come ID , will make any mate
rial alteration in wbat nov appears to
bo the result of the election. Messrs.
1'helps and-Pomeroy have been beaten
and the banner or anti-Masonry-has
once more gone dcwn. Freemasonry
has again triumphed , and the country
will have to reconcile itself to this
painful fact.
- Now that the battle is over and lost ,
wo can calmly .examine the reasons for
the defeat of the anti-masonic ticket ;
and it might-bo remarked that an ex
amination of this kind is always amore
satisfactory proceeding aftar a defeat
than "befomit. * It is conceded by all
thai in many districts there have been
large anti masonic gains. In Smith-
town , Ohio , where the anti-masonic
vote in 187G was 1 , it is this year 2 , a
gain of precisely lOOjjer cent. In
Brownville , Md. , 3 men voted on
Tuesday for Phelps and Pomeroy ,
whereas last year only 2 men voted the
anti-masonic local .ticket at the annual
election for the '
superindency'of Pro w-
liug Pigs. Here Is another gain
of 50 per cent. In Rob-
insonville , Illinois , Phelps and
Pomeroy received 1 vote
, which is a
clear gain of more per cent , than can
wetl be estimated , inasmuch as the
Anti-Masonic ticket in 1870 in that
town received only the vote of a
young man , aged 18 , and this vote
was afterwards thrown out by the
reckless and perjured men who sup
erintended the counting. In Thomp
son City , Wisconsin , an old lady pub
licly announced that ihe would hate
voted fcfor Phelps and Pomeroy had.
she been a man ; and this declaration
may fairly be .counted as an Anti-
Masonic gain of EC Feral per cent , in a
town where hitherto no Anti-Mason ,
of any well-defined sexwas ever seen.
These figure ? , taken almcst at random
from the returns of four different
states , show an enormous Anti-Ma
sonic gain , and cannot but awaken tbe
utmost uneasiness for the future in
the minds of Freemasons.
How has it happened that ia spite
of such tremendous gains the anti-
Masonic candidates have been defeat
ed ? As In the case of all defeated can
didates the explanation is , of course ,
fraud and corruption , though in this
espacial instance the malign influence
of Freemasonry must also be consid
ered. It can be proved that vast sums
of money were expanded both by the
republicans and the democrats to pro
cure the defeat of Phelps and Pome
roy. In ono town in Ohio , the name
of which is for obvious reasons with
held , a prominent democratic politic
ian is known to have had upward
of twenty-seven cents in his
posiession during the week be
fore election , and to have boasted
that with this money ho could buy
the support of three small boys , sons
of a worthy widow lady , and out
spoken advocates of the gallant
Phelps and the glorious Pomeroy. In
another town in Michigan the gross
est intimidation was practiced by the
physician of a lunatic asylum , who
locked an Anti-Masonic patient in his
cell , and prevented him from going to
the polls in a state of nature am-
blematio of purity and voting the
Anti-Masonic ticket Thus , with the
aid of money ant violence , the repub
licans and democrats , in unholy alii *
ance , succeeded in nullifying the will
of the people and placing a Masonic
administration In power.
The opposition to Phelps and Pome
roy did not hesitate to descend to the
use of the basest means to influence
the jninda of tbe people against tha
Anti-JSIaaonic candidate. Not one
vrard or syllabio of abuse iraa hurled
at either of them. This studied re
fusal to extend to them tbq courtesies
to which uyery candidates is entitled
of no excuse. It cpjinot bg
pretended that.eittier--Mr.-JPhelps-or
Mr. Pomeroy deservedthis , brutalnfe-
gleet. Nothing rould . have , .been
easier than to have charged"-Mr.
Phelps with congenial lunacy , complicated -
plicated with idiocy. Tolihe shame
, of the democratio/aa'd republicanedi-- ;
tors , it "must be said that they perv
slstently refused to make any sucn
chirgeT The" past"pnblio life of Mr.
Pomeroy , who was at-one time elected - ,
ed senator - from - K < mEasf and
, at another , .timejwaa " not , af-
forded every opportunity" its oppo
nents for vigorous and effective" catnT
paign charges ; but , nevertheless-lie
was treated with a systematic and si
lent contempt whichTnustr have made
tee blood of every earnest Anti-Mason
approach the ( boiling point. T hese
men could not have been treated
differently had "they been quiet , re-
spectible citizens , who had never
been convicted of having been candi
dates for office. The utter retusal of
their oppunentn to riddle them by mak
ing charges against them was es
sentially fradulent and in direct con
flict with the spirit of cur institutions.
It remains to be seen whether the
matter cannot be brought before an
Electoral Commission , and the votes
of those states which have been un
fairly secured by Garfieid or Han
cock thrown out.
This crushing defeat should not ,
however , discourage the anti-masons.
Their cause is a noble one. Garfield ,
Arthur , Hancock , and English are all
Freemasons , and aa such will un
questionably aid ono another in the
future , as in the past , in every variety
of crime. The accursed spirit of Free
masonry must be put down , and the
anti-masons must never cease to
nominate candidates until they finally
triumph at the.polk , in spite of the
desperate and corrupt devices of their
opponents.
THE PRESIDENT-ELECT.
Jt MAX WHOM THE WHOLE AMERICAN
'PEOPLE OAK FEEL FBOUD or.
Cincinnati ComtrcrcUl.
In reviewing the presidential can
vass republicans cannot fail to regard
with the highest satisfaction the bear
ing of their candidate.lt was through
out manly and dignified. 'But once
was the limit of his patience over
strained. "When it was attempted to
fasten upon him a letter manifestly
forged a letter that no expriencad
politician of either party would have
written unless he contemplated politi
cal suicide he branded its sentiments
as stupid and brutal , and showed tbat
warmth of ind'gnation which might
be expected of a man of his high and
generous nature.
Few candl3alea"have been exposed
to su6h a storm o personal defama
tion and slander , -yet , with the ex
ception named , General Garfield , ap
pealing to his public record , his acts
and speeches , left his defense in tha
hands of his friends , confident' ' tliat
the good ssnse of the people would ,
after a full examination , vindicate his
good name at the polls. No man be
lieves in the people more trustingly
than General Garfiold. He is one of
them , Has had their experience in the
struggle for tbe betterment of condi
tion , and sympathizes with them. His
'confidence in their intelligence and
love of fair play was not misplaced.
W\th such opportunities as General
Garfield has had to address the public
day after day ? nd week after week
tilost men would have managed to
say something of dlaidvantigo to
themselves as candidates for office ; but
we do not recall a single sentence or
phrase in his many utterances to the
delegations that have visited him at
his home in Mentor which has not
strengthened his hold upon public es
teem. There was neither egotism or
nndorraliiaiinn in tlinm , lint a fitting
appreciation of his attitude and roa !
tion to his fellotr-citizans of all par
ties andrconditions. .
Nor was it difficnlt'for ' General Garfield -
field to say much upon many subjects
without sins of CDmrniSMon. Bo at
all times spoke from intelligent con
viction , from opinions matured dur
inga long'public experience , and not
manufactured for the exigencies of an
houtor an occasion.- They were from
the inside out frank and honcat , and
eloquently expressed. With all thii
there was warm appreciation of < the
friendship that had been steadfast in
the past , and especial recognition of
the somewhat stern but eminently just
judgment of the most intelligent con
stituency of any congresssional district
in the United States.
The ordeals through which he had
parsed and from which he had
emerged triumphant and with an un
dying Hold npnn ttie affections and
regard of. the. people , strengthened
him to composedly withstand the
blasts from the hell of slandering
obloquy. It was the 'repose of integ
rity consoions of righteous vindica
tion. Like Antseus , when Gatfield
touched hia old constituency he
graw strong and dilated with
fresh power. Nothitig in the
campaign was more inspiring than the
spectacle of this man , accused by his
politic * ! enemies of crimes and misde
meanors that should send one guilty
01 them to the ponitentiarysurround-
ed by the old guard of the ninteenth
district , and-looking into their eyes
for the only assurance he needed by
their faith and'devotion. What harm
ahouldjbefall any man so protected , eo
shielded , and so conoio'us of his own
manhood and integrity ? *
-Erom the day of his nomination
GeneralGarffeld has gained in the es
teem nd confidence of Ihe people.
Large-hearted , Jarge'bralned , many-
sided in hJs cultivation , interested in
all industries and arts and sciences ,
and wide awake to all suggestions or
means to advance tho'peoplo In mor
al ; , in education , in intelligence and
in material development , General
Garfield will enter upon his adminis
tration better equipped to be the
president of "a great free people , and
to represent their aspirations and.
achievements , than any man who has
been called to the great office since
the revolutionary period of the re
public.

A Buffalo lake captain , when inter
viewed regarding his experience of the
_ reat gale of two wqe-ks ago , answered
that he spent more 'than an hour in
prayer. A Chicago captain said ho
was made to feel what an awfal sinner
he was. A Clevelander replied that ho
made a solemn vow to quit swearing
in caee he was saved. An interview
was held with a Detroit captain yester
day to see how ho felt. It started off
as follows :
"You were In the great gale , were
you ? "
"I was. "
"As the gale increased , the seas
grew higher , and your foretopmast
was broken off , did you realize what a
miserable old sinner you was ? "
"No , sir. My time was occupied in
clearing away the wreck , and thinking
how the owners would blast my eyes. "
"By and by , when the sea swept
your decks and carried off your yawl
at * the davits , did you make any
vows ? "
"I did not. I told the mate that
we'd got to square off and run before j
it or we'd all be in in less than
twenty minutes. "
"You meant Texas , did you not ? "
"I did. I knew we were headed di
rectly for Texas , with the seas piling
right over us. "
"Did your mate suggest holding a
prayer meeting rr singing any Gospel
hymns ? "
"Not by a gone sight ! He suggested | '
we'd bettir be mighty lively
about paying off or the Infernal old
tub would beat the bottom of Lake
Michigan. "
"When the awful voice of the gale
roared in your caw , and the moun
tainous combers rushed down as if to
bury you from sitjht , did you bava
.tho-least thought "of making a vow to
quit swearing If you wcra spared ? "
"No-sir , i believe
, - ; on the contrary
I swore faster that usual. I was in a
hurry to get her around. "
"As tha wheel was put over aud
ihe fell into the trough of the sea for
a "moment , what were your solemn re
flections.
"Well , sir , I solemnly reflected that
If the blasted old sticks ever wanted
to play dirt on me then was the time
.to do it.
"When you got squared away before
the wind did you tell your crew that
they ought to return thanks to
Providence for having escaped certain
destruction ? "
' No , sir ; I told him to ask the
steward for three fingers of good
vhlsky apiece and then turn In all
standing/1
"Do you feel that you ha any
particular cause to ba thankful ? "
"I do. The elevator man in Buffa
lo didn't steal but forty bushels of
wheat out of this last trip , while on
the. other they took ninety-one. I am
very thankful forthat fifty-one bushels
and shall strive to be a better man
hereafter. Take suthin1 sir ? "
