SIMKUAI , comes out of the contest for county attorney with n substantial majority. WITH Morrison , Carlisle ami Ilewitl out of congress , democratic brains in the next house will bo at a heavy discount. Cinnion Howu threatens to contest n 7,000 majority on the ground tliat icpub- llcanscouhl not bo kept trom scratching. IT i ? a solid democrat board of county commissioners. There will bo no excuse for a divided responsibility in the man agement of county affairs. Tin : first oH'ccls of monkeying witli prohibition are somewhat startling to republicans. If the lesson is well learned it lias been cheaply bought. Tun last legislature contained thirty democrats. The next will have not more than forty. Prohibition and Church Ilown are responsible for the gain of ten votes whioh , in a total of 133 , is by no mcuns alrming. _ _ NKiirtASKA farmers had their first fnit chance at the man who sold out the grange and they took full advantage ol it. The farmers' and workingmon's vote alone was almost suuicient in number to elect McShnno. DOUGLAS county workingmen are to be congratulated upon their honest labor al the polls for good government and the republican party. They proved that in dignnnt labor can wield an effectual weapon against its enemies and in do. fcnse of its friends. TUB Hon. William H. Morrison , oi Illinois , will not be present in the llftiotl : congress. The interests of the distiict he now represents will bo cared for by Mr , Jehu linker , who is not without expert- once in this line , having once before do foaled Morrison. The latter will be very ; greatly missud by thu larill' reform dom oorats , but his defeat will doubtless be gratifying to thu Uandall wing of the party , which did all it could to destroj his influence in congress and depreciate his ellbrts before the country. Morri son's defeat is a damaging blow to his political hopes for thu future. r.r.oitoi : L. MII.I.KU has had a good deal to say. about "tanned hides" during the past week or so. Wu shall taku pleasure at an early day in | ire. outlng him with his own as a specimen of what can be donu by an old and well tried process. The skin is a little thin , and Ims bean punctured so often that it lint lost much of its value except as a curi osity' . For all that it is an interesting relic , and will point a suggcstivo talo. Koine of these days some people will dis cover thu mistake of viciously heading on people's toes while whining out ap peals for the safety of their own corn covered feet. COKUIIKSSMAN DOIISP.Y'S rCljll't'tioil 1)J an Increased majority throughout the Third district is a striking evidence that the people appreciate honc t and faithful work on thu part of their representatives and are ready to show their appreciation in a practical manner at thu ballot-box , Mr. bnrnoy'ii uxcollcnt record during two years nt Washington inndo his campaign for him throughout the district. Speeches nnd barbecues and torchlight proee-silous wore not needed. The press had laid his claims before his constituency anil they went promptly admitted as valid. His work on behalf of the Third district and his courteous dcferonco to thu wishes and roiuiefits of his constituency bore fruit at the polls. _ Tun H , > t M. oigan nF Lincoln cnlls upon all republicans who ara friends of Church Huwo to knife Van Wyt'k. Inas much as ih'jru are only two ilowu repub licans ck > ctMi to the legislature in this district oiit.sidi ) of Lrm'nst r county' , and haneastor is known to bu hostile to Van \ \ yck , not many knives will bo raised in respond to this bloodthirsty appeal , Hut why should not Church llowo's friends knife C'obb , whoso comity gavu about twlro the majority to Tlmycr that it did to Ilnwo unit therefore must have sold Howe out. Why .shouldn't A. J. Weaver become n victim sincu Uich- nrdson county has buried Howe under COO voles while it gave n majority to the republican candidates for thu legis lature. The returns from the state J > ro still In oouiplctn with regard to the legislature but enough is known to make an estimate that will bo very near correct , Out ol the 133 members the democrats elect frorr 12 to15. . Two or Ihrco independent re publicans were elected on the Van W.vcl i sue , which will leave the straight ropub llcans nearly two-thirds of the legislature This puts all talk of n democratic sunatoi out of the question. The next snnaloi will bo either Charles 11. Van \Vyck 01 another republican. Of the clglity-livo republicans , it ts Im possible * as yet to say wliuthci the majority is opposed to or foi Van Wyck. It is n settled fact , however ( hat there are enough out and out Van Wyck men in the legislature to control the result and send General Van \Vycl back to the senate for a second torm. The complexion of the two branches of the legislature is about as follows : Sen ate , nine democrats , one Independent , David Hutlcr , and twenty republicans In the house , thirty-six democrats , twc independents nnd sixty- two republicans On the question of the submission ol the prohibition It is impossible to say deli iiitely , but wo have reason to believe thai the threo-llfths vote of both house ; requisite for its submission cannot be had. Tin ) democratic senators will ge solidly against it , bee.auso they are sc pledged , iind a sulliciunt number of re publicans will vote with them because they regard it as suicidal to the party and impracticable. Work on Tucmlny. The part played by the labor olomenl in various parts of thu country in the elections of Tuesday is not the least in teresthig feature of the political oxpnr- loue.es and teachings of that day. it oilers to the student of current politics n mailer for serious contemplation , and it particularly addresses ilsolf to the leaders of the old political parties as a develop nient which they cannot ignore or trcal with light concern. Itdomoustrulod thai this now power , so recently adopting the forms of organization and assuming party character and functions , is a growing and progressive forco. It showed that tin labor movement is an exceedingly earn est and -vigorous reality , possessing now in some localities the slrcnjrtu tc achieve victory at the ballot box , and in many others the balance of power enabl ing it to determine , in its own interest , the fate of candidates. The vote of between sixly and seventy Ihonsand for Henry George in Now York was unquestionably a surprising result , Although loss than the exaggerated esti mates of his more sanguine supporters , it was very much in excess of the best fig ures that had boon named by shrewd and experienced politicians and by the press. At thovory hight of the enthusiasm following owing his nomination the highest vote con ceded to him was fifty thousand , and a' the campaign advanced Uus was reduced until the last estimates would allow him not to exceed lorty thousand. The result is evidence that Ilio labor vole was very much boiler organized and disciplined , and far more in earnest , than the opposi tion supposed , and except for the ano malous and insincere union of the most numerous democratic factions would have been successful. The result in Chicago was no less a surprise. Very few of the most sanguine friends of the labor movement had anil- ciwatett so largo a vote as was polled in its interest in that city , resulting in the election lo Ilio legislaluro of several labor candidates , throe judges who had the labor support , and very nearly achieving the election of a congressman. In the next Illinois legislature the labor party will be represented by eight votes and may hold the balance of power. The defeat of Morrison was effected by the opposi tion of the labor vote in his dislnct , and thu same mllucncc greatly reduced the majority of Congressman Springer. In the city' and county of Milwaukee the victory of the labor party was com plete. It elected its entire legislative and county ticket and a member of congress. The next Wisconsin legislature will have six roprosentalivos of labor. The probable defeat ot Speaker Car lisle is duo lo thu opposition of workingmen - men , who put forward one of their num ber mid gave him their solid support. In Minnesota the sympathy of the labor clement was most largely with the democratic candldalo for governor , nnd the effect is shown in a greatly reduced republican majority. In Ohio the labor vote defeated the republican candidate for congress in the Twenty-first district and was a prominent factor in the voting of several other congressional districts. In ISufl'alo it mnrio largo gains. It is thus FOOD that labor made il.solf very generally felt in Tue-sday's elec tions , and It is not to be doubted that the power it developed and the results it achieved will inspire it to make moro vigorous and determined efforts iu the future. It will not be wise to regard as an idle boast the declaration of Henry George that "wo have demonstrated the political power of Jnbor , and nnvor again will politicians look upon the labor move ment with contempt. " Tliut wa.s the statement of a tact amply attested by the evidences we have cited , and It is a fact which the political leader * must rncog- nl/.o. The labor movement has become an aclivo an earnest force , representing a cause and a purpose , and witiuineii will see that the judicious couivo to bu pursued re.ipucting it is not thatof hostility and detraction - traction , but of friendly inU-rest and di rection. II is a power thai threatens no drmger to the general weltaro unless it shall become the tool of self-seeking demagogues and uiueru puloua politi cians , and this inuy bo prevented it hon est and patriotic political leaders do not lU olninib to allonlion. The Klnoliou nntt tlio Administration , Mr. Cleveland la reported to have btiid , when the returns showing republican Kuecesscs and pains worn coining in from all quarters Tuesday night , that ho did not consider the administration to bo on trial in the election. The cheerful way the president has of renouncing regpon- t-ibility is ono of the most intere-ling features of his character , Uf iiour.su no ono could be moro fully conscious than he. of the fact that ttio public attention is constMilly lixed upon the conduct and pulley of the administration , but ho ui'.bcts ' to bu qnitn unable to understand that nny of the mistakes or misfortunes of his party should be traced to that source. Nothing but the boundless con- fldoncn of llr. Cleveland in his own su perior political wisdom can account for this self-complacency , As a matter of fact , however , the administration was very c6nspicuotisly on trial In the clcc tion. It was particularly so In a scon or more congressional districts where iti most ardent supporters In the prcsen house of representatives failed of ronom iniition. It was PO in Now York , when Ilio Cleveland candidate for supremi judge is elected , if nt nil , by an extremclj slender majority , showing a democratic loss since last year of between thirty am forty thousand. It was measurably so li Pennsylvania , where Handall , backed bj the administration , dictated the demo cratlo ticket , which Is overwhelmingly defeated , although under olhci conditions democratic success wouh not have been altogether 1m ttobnblo , nnd certainly the re publican majority would have beer much less. It was so In Michigan , where Don Dickinson represents the friend ship nnd patronage of the administrator and thereby alienated a very largo mini ber of democratic voters. In short wherever there was democratic dissatis faction and dissension the admluistratloi was on Irial , and wo undertake to saj that the election results only partially in dlcato Ilio real extent of dissatisfaction Mr. Cleveland Is poor Tjoth in wisdoir nnd experience as a politician , but hr ought to have learned by this time thai as the head of Ins parly , responsible foi its policy and conduct , Its fidelity te pledges , Its care for the public wolfnre and ils general hone-sly nnd good be Imvior , ho cannot escape responsibility for its misfortunes brought about by hi failure to meet the expectations nnd re quirements of the people. However , the time is nol far away when Mr. Clovolam will have no reason lo doubt that the administration is on trial , and if hii power of inductive reasoning is good he may determine trom Tuesday's result ! what the verdict will then be. Pointing The now isstto of extension bonds bj tlio St .Too & Grand Island road was promptly taken as soon as the subscrip tion books were opened , Ono half 01 the total amount pass into the hands ol the Union Pacific , that corporation own ing a moiety of the stock. The feeders to bo built with the funds thus secured will aggregate 200 miles. This nov > mileage will all bo tributary to Kansas and Missouri matkets. The main line is already payingG per cent on a capitnli/.iv tion of $30,000 a mile. As the feeders are to bo built for half the sum larger re turns are looked for by this stockholders from the increased trailo ! and the new territory which will bo reached by the system. The Hurliugton is steadily pushing its extensions in every direction from the main line and reaching out for territory in all sections of the state. The enor mous profits which tlio IJ. & M. has an nually returned lo the Boston owners slimulales an aggressive policy. Twenty per cent dividends are tempting baits to investors nowadays , and the advantages of the long haul arc steadily borne in mind at the Chicago end of thai corpora tion. Meantime Omaha , whose commercial interests are assailoil by Chicago , Kansas City and St. Joseph , the terminal sta tions of four great systems , is sucking ils thumbs and " silting for soaiethiug to turn up. " Something of a very unpleasant nature to our people is likely to turn up if wo allow another season lo pass with out making un effort to help ourselves. We have lived for a year on the wind and promises of railroad managers , and it has proved a very unsubstantial diet. The "feeders" built have not fed Omaha. They all point in a difleront direction and nourish other communities. What Defeated Him. In listening lo Iho shrieks of the routed Howe forces , one would imagine Unit the defeat of that veteran fraud and boodlei- was entirely owing to the heavy cam paign fund of his opponent That money was lavishly spent in the election there is no doubt. A campaign covering eleven counties , eight of which were captured by Howe's * opponent , required a very largo expenditure for legitimate election expenses. Tickets wore to be pi inted. a thorough canvass ot the situation made and an army of workers at Iho polls hired. Henry George claims that ho conducted his campaign in Now York with little erne funds , but ho is Iho only candidate re ported as making n statement of the kind. Elections are always expensive luxuries. No ono knows this bettor than politicians of the Church Howe stripe , It is the height of the ridiculous for them to cry "boodle" in which has a campaign near ly wrecked financially the defeated "boodler. " The well organized canvass of McShanc assisted materially in his election , but did not secure it. Against n difleront opponent no organization would have won. Eight republican counties , composed chiefly of farmers , diet not roll up a monumental majority for n democrat because ho spent his money freolv. The flagrant record of Howe and disgust at the repub lican organization for injecting the luohibilion Issue into Iho canvass wore missionaries who converted thousands of republican voters into supporters of a democratic candidate for congress. The talk of contesting tlio result is of course arrant nonsense. Church Howe was de feated beforct the ballots cabt in the cities were counted. Country precinct after country precinct rebuked his impudent pretenstloim by snowing him under re publican votes. It was n political revo lution which ho drew upon himself. There Is no shadow of a ehnnu'that the popular verdict will bo set aside. When the IlrpnMican parsed into the hands of the Into public printer nnd his associates wo extended a warm welcome to the now proprietors.Vo believed that they meant what they said in announc ing a new policy for the concern which promised the publlo that thu paper was jnlirely divorced from the old crowd that liad piloted the party through the rail road channels to wreck nnd disgrace , Hut the editorial chair has hardly been warmed by the now editor when the pub lic arc treated to Inn sumo old song , In the face of the tenibltt rebnko which re- pitblle-aiu have administered J n every jountyintho dihtrtct , Church Howe is ivtolled as a uaint and a martyr , uid those who have rescued the [ nrty from the disgrace of his election are lampponod nnd roasted by h < ) old organof jobbers and monopoly juppoi-s , The cordial treatment extended jy this paper is reciprocated by the pub- ieution interviews with disreputable > hyscrs | and railroad boodlers who , iu llii'ir misery over Howe's defeat , rnjoici that the editor'of the HEK will notgi down to Lincoln this winlcr. After all It Is just what wo have expected. Tin same old gang , of which Howe wns ai honored lender , will inspire the politica policy of the rejuvenated readorlcss , The now typo will print what the oh crew dictates.Tlin new presses will revolve volvo at lightning speed , but the papo will continue lo travel In thu old ruts o the ox-train trail. It has been f-i through all .tho various changes whicl the NcjmblicaM Ifas scon In the lust lifteei years , ll Is tlio'same old organ , no matter tor who handloA tlio crank. IT appears that Speaker Carlisle ha had an extremely narrow escape , If in deed ho has not been defeated. The elec tion In his district is RO close that 1 probably cannot be determined until th olh'cial count Is made. This Is thu mos surprising incident of the elections so fa developed. His opponent is a wooi carver , who enjoys a local ruputntioi only as a labor advocate. Ho had th support of the worklngmen , who are op posed to the free trade tendencies of Car lisle , and also of dissalistiod democrat whoso displeasure Is duo lo Iho course * o Iho speaker respecting federal appointments monts in his district , to which ho ha given little regard. The client of the bet back will nol bu to increase the smal presidential boom in behalf of Carlisle which otherwise might have had largi possibilities. Ho may safely bo droppci from the list of "possibles. " /Notice. / The political copartnership horotofon existing between George L. Miller am James K.

THE E D OF A FAST CAREER , Suicldo of Prince Melissano. A Noted Pn risiau Gambler , L Xlia Sttporstitloits Drenil of Ills Kvlt I do not suppose , writes Iho Paris cor respondent of the Now Vork Tribune , that the suicide of Prlnco Caraccjolo Mot- Issauo will , notwithstanding the moral to deduced from it , alVect practically the lifo of a sluglo gambler In existence. That unfortunate was a grandson of the admiral of the sumo name who was hanged in 171H ) on a yard-arm of the Min erva in thn bay of Naples , under the eye of Lord Nelson , anil whose tragical death cast a stigma on the famu of the llritish > naval hero. Alberto Carncclolo. prince of Mellssano , resembled the Ill-starred admiral In si/e and iu the outline of his head , but was devoid of his dignity , his self mastery nnd firmness of char acter. Ho was smalt and wiry , ami his little person was always attired In what is here supposed lo bo n correct English .style that IH to say , llko a groom in the morning and like a "masher" in the evening. His shirt bosom and collar seemed to lie of metal with a white en amel on it , and his cravat was iu keep ing with the shirt. Ho had a bilious com plexion and there was something hi Ins m-olilo which sot one thinking of n ravi u , I'ho eye \\asnotporpetually hidden by an eye glass was hard , sunk , imiiiisi- tivo and suspicious. It appeared to have retreated as far back us it could to ho in ambush , and to hideit.s own movements. Italians thought U an evil eye , and would nol gamble with it.s owner. Indeed , his Neapolitan compatriots ot his own rank , thinking him a dettatore , would not on any account stay in a room whore ho wa.s. At the clubn to which ho belonged , both at Homo and Naples , his entrance into Iho card room trighteucil away players. 'I'llis superstitious drcatt of his ovll pyo obliged him to esoino to Paris , where 1i.s ho was provided with the best introduc tions , and had an undo who was the lover of Madame Kratiss , the opera primu donna , ho was at once well launched. Ho took n handsome suite of rooms in the Hue d'Antinget ) admitted to the most select clubs or eercles , mainly those of the Kuo lioyale and Champs KlysecH ( formerly Coiclo Imperial ) , and nciiuired a reputation : IH a collector of choice canes and art furniture. Hail a good many lady friends , who wore lee well known in Paris and in the pleasure and gamb ling resorts of Kurope. Some of them were ; on the stage. It wa.s whispered that whenever any of them introduced lo thu rich " " .shared Prince a "Hut , ho with her the money thai ho won of him. The Neapolitan nobleman was c.vtrcmclv intimate with the red-whiskerod Polisii count who some years ago bcoumo the inseparable frienel of th < > prince of Wales and re mained so nniil ho died. In a .short liuio Prince Mclissiino's set of rooms in the ttuo d'Antin became a center to which illustrious and wealthy pleasure .seekers from all points of the compass' gathered. 11 is gambling parties were .so "swagger" that rich money lenders who wanted to extend llioir social relations did not mind to what an extent they themselves or'heir sons lost money at them. Since Mile. Schneider shut un shop there was no place in Kurope where ) a vulgar mil lionaire had such irood opportunities for becoming acquainted with royal and im perial personages. The he/st , however , bad a too long and blremg spell of luck for this sort of thing to go im forever. He never al this period of his- career played but to win , and ho always played lor high slakes. Nobody thought here of his evil eye , hut it was remarked that ho had phenomenally thin and long nails , and U was suspected that by their aid ho indulged in that kind of chealing known its la pou.-elte Cold coins placed outside u eiinain line on thu curd-taiilo could be shoved lorwai I by the long nails within thn boundary , ir to bo inside was to win. This cmiiMiil lib rooms to bo maidenly desi > rtod. A * lib always lived at the lop of his spued , cred itors came down in a shoal upon him when his gains decreased. His an finni- turo was. sold by them ; but beconlrived to keen his curious canes. Ho was involved in the scandal of the Circle do la Hun Koynlo , and when it , was broken up to bu reconstituted the committee refused to admit him. Mile. Ziita IJalli , Iho opera coiuiinio .singer , with whom ho went to America , on lured him from her iirc.sciicii , and when ho would not go but kept run ning after her behind the MUNICH , horse whipped him. Ho became ono of thu most cantankerous of human linings. His nails being closely watched whenever - over ho played , his "luck" utterly forsook seek him. The coinniilltto of the Champs Klyscos club , whom ho had a bed-room , watched lor opportunities to expel bun. Ho often lost temper when he was "cleaned out" a thing one inns1 ! never do among gentlemanly gamcstcr.s in Paris. According to Iheir code of man ners , when a player IK ruined , he should grin and bear it. If they mean to commit siiicido they should dose so without , apprising anyone ) of the in tention. Prince Melissano got up scenes itboiil his gambling misfortunes. When ho saw himself posted as a defaulter Im smashed the vast mirror upon which Inn name was posted , and in airing bin grievances rained .storms ul thn club.- , . Jusl lieforo ho shot liiinsidf liu wrote a teller to the Prince of Wales , and an other to a fiidy of rank who had pnv- loudly Icnthim ft,000 to slave oil'an c\c- milion , but who refused lo lend him $ ridO lo clear oil'thu debt ot honor for which ho was proclaimed a delimiter the day before his sniiiidi ) .
