The Rinnjrs1 Altinnco Anti Monopoly ticket wai not Kcnorally an important factor in yeslonlay'H election , except in Adama county , where all the can didate * on thai ticket , except county clerk , were elected. Much had boun expected by certain political iihysturs from thia ticket but this new attempt lo break the great strength of the re publican party of Nebraska will proba bly provo ftu abortive as did the Granger division n. few years ago. Thrco counties elected doniooralic olllcors. Douglaa county elected full republican ticknt for the firnt time in about 10 years. The majori ties jr K from 220 to 1,500. Ua county elected a straight republican ticket for the first time in several years , Hall county did the same for ; ho first time in its history , and they md a grand celebration over the event .his afternoon. The Omaha correspondent of the Now York Times is Mr. I. W. Miner , of the Om , hi Republican , a paper notoriously owned in parl by omcors f tha Union Pacifi > railroad company md wholly controlled by that corpora- ion. This explains the motive for ho transmission of such a bare-faced isine of falsehoods and shows to what disreputable means the monopoly cap- > era will reiort in their efforts to crcato false impressions abroad con cerning the political issue * inNobranka. It la true that there was an election 10din ! Nebraska on the eighth of fovouibor , that only three persons wore voted for on the state ticket , hot a light vote wai polled and that lie republicans have elected their udto ; and university regontnbyalarge lajority. It is also true Unit through- ut the atato much interest was shown oncoming county officer * , but when lie Omaha correspondent of the Now fork Times represents that the farm- rn nlliunco was not an important actor in the Nebraska election , ho leliboratoly falsifies the election ro- urnsand when ho represents the anti- nonopoly loaders in Nebraska an pol- tieal shysters , ho insults some of the nest respectable men in the state. The farmer's alliance in Nebraska , irganizod only fourteen months ago consists already of over three hun- Ired local alliances , and is rapidly ex- .ending to ovary voting precinct. It ias boon the aim of its founders to achieve the 6bjcets of this organiza tion within existing party lines. Ingorsoll and Burrcwi , the president and secretary of the state alliance , lioth republicans , issued an address to the members of that organisation last iiiminor advising against any separate political party movement. TUB BSE as the loading anti-monopoiy paper in e state seconded their efforts , urg ing upon republican farmers to attend . .iriniartosand conventions and en deavor to carry out their principles through the republican organization , unless the corporations should compel them to resort to independent action by packing primaries nnd conventions with their cappers" and henchmen. The president of the farmers' alliance was a member of the republican state convention held at Lincoln on the 1st of October. Other members of the alliance participated in that conven tion , but to their mortification the convention refused to voice pub- lie sentiment ubout corporate abuses. The ohnirnian of the convention , Mr Thnmmell , n Union Pacific attorney , packed the committee on rcaolntions with known and notorious monopoly stool-pigeons. The editor of the Omaha Republican na chairman of this commiUeo withheld the resolutions under false pretexts until the conven tion had concluded nil its business ; the committee refused to entertain resolutions offered by Messrs , Kller , of Pillmoro , and Ransom , of Otoe , denouncing existing abuauH and extor tions by the railroads and demanding redress through state and national legislation. The convention finally adjourned without saying ono word 01 the most vital ituuo of the day. It was because this republican convention vontion , manipulated by corpjration attorneys , hud sought to repress pub. lie sentiment on the railway iniostioi that the farmers in many counties or ganixod nn independent nnti-monop ely movement for the election of loca officers. So spontaneous was this movement and so intense the feolinj , that in npito of nn opposing press am without campaign orators they elector fully ns many county officers as the republicans. They carried not only Adams county , but elected ovorycoun ty ofllcor in/1'hayor and Hamiltoi counties , all but ono ofiicor in Fill morn , A majority of the tiokoi in Franklin , Butler , Polk nnd Buffalo They olcctud the county treasurer it York uiul several officers in eacl Seward , Furnas , Johnson Red Wil low and a number of other counties If anlr three counties had electee , democratic tickets , as the voracious 7 m correspondent represents , ant the remaining counties that did no elect straight republican officers wuru credited to the formers' nlllance Ihero would bo Boven more counties for the anti-monopolists. As n timttor of fact the democrats carried ten counties and for the most part thcro wore carried locamoof corporation interference in the republican local nominationo. Even the boant about Douglas county going ntr.iight republican the first time in ten ycnr.i in incorrect. Doug- county wont solid republican in 187J1 wlion TIIK BIK : made the historic iglit against corporation bnlldoy.iii ) .

So much for the reliable correspon- lent of the Now York Titrus.

It was noi to bo expected that n n yen * in which no national lesuos wore Involved a full vote could bo called out o the majorities of a presi dential election maintained by the party in power. There is always in every eUto and in every community a argo class of voters who take no in- ercsfc in an election unless there is undue exeitomont in the campaign over some Important issue. This ac counts in part for the falling off in he vote , especially In the larger cities , where business men failed to appear at thn polls. Another element wh-ch n state and municipal elections al ways afToets the vote to the disadvnn- ago of the republican party is the rowing fooling of independence from tarty lines whore purely local IHSUCH ore involved. The scralching of bal- otfi is often the protest of the in- lividual voter against improper party nethoda in the nomination of candi dates. All these elements conspired in the nto elections to decrease the total voto. In Now York the entire stnto ickot was carried for the republican : andidatos by 12,000 majority , with , ho exception of Ilustod , whoso pre- rious record insured his defeat. The rading off of Msomblymen and spna- ors in Now York City for local cand- didatcs andobjoctionablo nominations n several of the legislative districts n the state has resulted in the cnp- , ura of the legislature by the democ racy , but M no senator is to bo elected this year this is a matter of minor importance and is more than offcott by the defeat of the demo cratic ring and in the election of a republican mayor in Brooklyn. Masaftchusetts rolled up an incrcnncd republican majority of 43,000 votes , showing largo gains in every portion of the stato. Pennsylvania elected a republican state treasurer , although the independent revolt led by Wolfe indicated a wide spread dissatisfaction with HOBS Cameron's rule. In Con necticut , Ohio , Minnesota , Colorado , Kansas and New Jersey the republican can party hold their own nnd in Vir- ginii * the roadjustora , aided by repub lican votoa , wrested the state from the bourbons. In Wisconsin a heavy fall ing off in the republican vote in noted , for which the prohibition element was principally responsible , but the atato gave mnjoiity of 5,000 to the straight ticket and the party held ita own gen erally in the town and county con- teats , The only gluten in which the democracy swept the field wcro in Maryland and Mississippi uiul any ether result would have been surpris ing. Taken ns a whole , the rcpuhli c.ui' ) hnvo reason for gratification nt the outcome of Iho elec tions in the eleven states in which they have measured arms with the democracy to which Bliouli bo added Iowa and Ohio , whoso ticket were elected in October by heavy ma jorities. , , lint while the result of the late elections has proved that the majority of ropublionn voters nro still true to their party allegiance there were strong indication ! * , ia many quarters of a growing feeling of revolt on the part of the bettor element against machine rule and nominations , which wore the result of packed caucuses nnd bossism , 1'onnsyl vania's independents made themselves strongly felt in thu canvass for Mr. Wolfe nnd in many counties in New York the machine nominations wore slaughtered by tha bunincss men and the younger votorv In Nebraska the dissatisfaction with many of the local party nominations resulted in the elootionof Democratic nml Alliance tick ets through the votes of men who had previously accorded n hearty nupport to republican nominees. The s&me feature of the elections is noticeable in Connecticut and Wisconsin , while in Massachusetts , where the primary elections and caucuses are conducted with fairness , nn overwhelming repub lican majority was the result , If te publicans at larva will grapple with the living Issues nnd place in nomina tion candidates of ability and In. togrity , they will hnvo a good working majority in boIV houses of congress two yo\rs honcp. THE ASSASSIN'S TRIAIi. The trial of Guitcaii , the nwas in of President Oarficld , begins nt 10 o'clock this morniiiff , in the court of thu dis trict of Columbia , before Judge Coi. Kvery indication points to a tndioun trial , extending over weokn nnd per haps months before n fin-U verdict Is rendered. The government has sum moned over ono bundled witnesavn Tor the piobccutton , and on bolnlf of the dcfonao Bovcntj-fivo nubpwim Imvo been issued. On the ques tion of nolectintj n jury con.iidcT.iblo difficulty may bo ex pected , nlthou-h Sir. Scoville , Gui- lean's counsel , promincs not to ooarch for men who have not formed or ox- irecRcd nn opinion on the case. Such . soirch would probably provo moro difficult th. n the expeditions in search of the north pole. Mr. Scovillo'o promises in connection with the trial > t his brolhor-in-law niunt , however , w taken with some nllowanco , and ninny punola nro likely to be exhausted joforu twelve men are found who will bo acceptable. The counsel for Guilenu announce thnt they will rely upon the insanity plea for their dofonoo but they will wave none of their legal rights on the questions of jurisdiction. They i- ; > ect to bring upon the stand a miua of expert testimony to tha unsound- loss of the assassin's mind , and evi dence that insanity has for years boon a taint in his father's family. This ino of testimony will protract the trial indefinitely , and current opinion n Washington does not place tha close of the case before the end of the yoar. yoar.The The prosecution will bo represented > y District Attorney Corkhill , assisted > y Judge Porter and Mr. Davidge. They have thoroughly prepared their CASO and express themselves aa confi dent of prompt conviction. They irat propose to establish the death , its cause and the responsibility of the agent , and to leave the details of in sanity for rebuttal. They anticipate much delay in the progress of the case resulting from legal arguments over ; he admission of testimony for the dofonf o. What the public is most in terested in is that the form of the ; rial bo quickly concluded , for the , rinl of such a cold-blooded assassin can bo nothing more than a form due ; o the sentiment of obedience to law and fair play. Of the guilt of the prisoner there can bo no doubt. The efforts of his counsel will only delay justice by prolonging the life of a miserable wretch whoso continued ex istence bears testimony to the longsuffering - suffering patience of the American people. TUK BBE the other day laid alleged republican defeat at tbo door of "tho stalwarts , " and founded its charge on a lying reference to dispatches which neither that nor any other journal over received. It turns out now that the republican state ticket is elected with the exception of Huated ; and the chief reason why Hustcd ran more than 10,000 behind his ticket was that ho was a Yanderbilt monopolist of the moat oftensivo and dangerous sort , and liis defeat came from the country districts of the interior nnd western Now York. Even the Now York Times , in its comments on the election , expresses gratification over this result ; nnd , speak ing of the general outcome , it congratulates thu party that although "nuiny of the loaders who had opposed Mr. Uonkling feared that the state ticket would bo sacrificed by the stal warts , " such would bo the result. On the ether hand , the defeat of Mr. As tor in Morton's republican district was duo to the outspoken opposition of the Times , IW , Jlnriier's 11'cMy and other nnti-Conklini ; journals. The , only reason for this opposition , put forth by thcao papers , wns that Mr. Astor stood by Mr. Conkling in the contest over Iho senatorship. Ihpitb- 'ican. A few of the lies in thia ntatoment of tho'/fc ; > uMiccii require answer. In the tirat place Tin : Jinn stated a fact which it ia useless for the llepnblicuH or any other journal to deny , namely , that the Albany stalwarts scratched the fitato ticket largely. This fact ( the editor of The Republican may find in Tun Bii : and every other newspaper that printed full election returns on last Wednesday evening. TJIK UKE did not lay the alleged re publican defeat at the hands of the stalwarts. It simply stated n fact. It might with equal propriety and with equal truth have stated thnt many anti- Conkling men exercised their royal 1 right to vote as they pleased by refusing to support candidates which they thought objectionable. THE BKK on Thursday laid Huttod's defeat - feat to hi.i objectionable monop ly record. It b singular that a brass collared organ like the JicpnlMcan , feels sompelled to support our view o ; the cnso , by stating that ho was "n monopolist of the moat offensive and dancerous sort , " although such a statement is gospel truth. There were candidates of very ofl'onbivo and dangerous sort nearer homo which the pcoplo of Nebraska protested against nt their last election. These , however , the llrpublican did not dnro to denounce as "monopolists" for n reason well known the ita editors and Union Pa cific railroad. The defeat of Mr. Aator was not duo to hia apuport of Mr , Conkling. It was the result of a bad monopoly record in the last New York legislature ; to his opposition to the street cleaning billand his flftht against the Harlem flnh improvement , joined to a general Incapacity to think and net for himself. This was the ground of the opposition to his can didacy by the T\mt , J'otl and ITar- r's ir.lj / and not his fidelity to Mr. Conkling in thu ( senatorial fight. IOWA BOILED DOWN.
