Sam Small, having finished bin speaking in Massachusetts, baa “thank ed God be i* not a Democrat” and atart- ed for these parts, as be eays, "to reform the South ” Max O'Kell, the Frenchman, has a keen eye to the main chance. In his new book he makes a prominent bid for feminine applause. He says: "The more I see of the American women the more conllrmed I become in my impress ion that they are typical—more so than the men They are like no other women 1 know. The brilliancy of their conver sation, the animation of their features, the absence of affectation in tlioir man ners, make them unique." The Savannah Evening Times, it is stated, is to be resurrected. Mr. 1’leas- unt Stovall is to be its editor and Mr. David Robinson is to manage its busi ness affairs. Mr. Stovall is at present the managiug editor of the Augusta Chronicle. lie is a courteous gentleman, one of the best editorial writers in the State and an excellent all around news paper man. Mr. Itoblneon is a well- known, dopular and successful business man. The new venture ought to be, .and doubtless will be, a successful one. To-day will witness much joy and dis tress in this glorious country of ours. The men who are on the victorious side in the four States of New York, Ohio, Iowa and Massachusetts will jubilste quite freely. They will carry home with them jags of various dimensions, some >small and others exceedingly large and wxhllarating, while the disappointed partisans will gulp down their disgust and gloomily declare that the elections did not Interest them in the slightest degree. They will lie, os a matter of course, and will know that the other fellows know that they are lying. Me. John H. Ii.m.in, President of the W«t Point Terminal Company, has been the target for a good deal of spec ulative rumor, but tho latest reports placo him In control of the Immense In terests that have been committed to his care. Ho has succeeded in raising the funds necessary to moot the demands now made upon the Georgia Central, and the war on him will probably cease. Mr, Inman Is a sagacious business man and has been s tower of strength to the South. He has been foremost In placing the great resources of this section be fore the capitalists of the world.—Mont gomery Advertiser. Tub Chattanooga Times says: "The row over the Johnson School History In a Georgia town has bethought ua to aug- gest that, in our school histories the an nals of the civil war should be oonflued to the coldest kind of official statement Still better than that would be the omis sion of that era from the books entirely. We are yet too near the events of tbst passion-stirring aud prejudice-violating aeaaon for tho most judicial to do the subject evon-banded justice. Whatever it written, or has been written, of Its history since 1863, is either worthless or fit only for data to be used by the histo rians of fifty or a hundred years hence.’ No quostlon has excited the religious communities of Louisiana since its for mation as a State morotlian the lottery -question Is doing now. With one excep tion almost every denomination has taken action on the subject. Some churches hare gone so far aa to make it a teat of membership. Every Methodist conference has decided against tlje lot tery, while the Baptist convention, after declaring that no good Baptist could by any possibility favor the lottery com pany, recommend the churches to expel such members as might express them selves in favor of extending Its charter. The Congregatlnnalists have been alike vigorous in condemning the lottery, and the stand of the Presbyterians may be judged by that of Dr. Palmer, who has been a leader in tho tight against the lottery, and that denomination has ap pointed a day of prayer to be observed next month in all Its churches In Louis iana to pray for the annihilation of the lottery. The Episcopal Church, at its Diocesan Council, adopted resolution! against the lottery. The Roman Catho lic Church has taken no action In the matter; a number of its priests, however, p*' ularly in the French poitlon of the irri ut supporters of the lot- uiiment, and have been conspi- • .; the meetings In favor of It.— . ;-.u Traveler. Travelers may learn a lesson from Mr. C. D. Cone, $ prominent attorney of Par ker, Dakota, wlio aaya: "I never leave home without taking a bottle of Cham berlain's Colic, Cholera and Dlurrhceu Remedy with mb; and on many occasions have ran with it to the relief of come sufferer and have never known it to fail. For solo by W. C. Rustell, Americas, C*. THE RESULTS Returns from the states in which elec, tions wore held yesterday show Demo cratic victories In almost every quarter. New York, Massachusetts, Pennsylva nia and Iowa have certainly gone Demo cratic by increased majorities. In New York Flower has carried the city by about 00,000. It is the Demo cratic majority in the city wbiob the Re- publicans have to overcome by the ma jority in the state at large; and it is on this that they always base their hopes. Yesterdsy’s election, while giving the Democrats a large increase in the city, shows heavy Republican losses in the country. The Republicans, after losing in Ne York city, have ‘sadly failed in 'their hopes of making up by the vote which meets the ususl Democratic majority from the counties beyond the Harlem river; and Flower has scored an over whelming victory by probably 30,000. The causes of this Waterloo have national significance. The Republican nominee, Fassett, is the man whom Har rison put upon the convention nnd who was distinctively the candidate ol Boss Platt. The failure of the Republicans to stand by the deal, and their desertion to the Democratic ranks, shows that Har rison has lost his grip, and that tile elec toral vote of New York state is doubt less lost to him in the next presidential Republican convention This will force that party to look elsewhere for a can didate; and bridge Blaioe, wiiliug or un tiling, to the front as the man who can arouse most enthusiasm in his party, and best hold together the republican vote; and whatever deal lie may have had with Harrison will be broken by the outside pressure which the New York election siiows will be brought to bear. In Massachusetts Governor Russell has won by from 3,000 to 5,000 majority. The same state of affairs exists there as in New York,Boston and large cities giv ing in most elections heavy democratic majorities, which the country districts meet by corresponding republican ma- jorltes. Boston has given Russell an increased majority; and the country, In stead of standing to tho republicans as usual, has entirely failed to come up to their expectations. One of the most significant features of the campaign In Massachusetts Is that Nahant, the birthplace of Cabot L-idge of force bill fame, has gone democratic by a good majority for tho first time in Itshistoiy; it haring heretofore been a republican stronghold. The returns from Ohio are slow, the Australian ballot system being In full force all aver the state, and making it impossible to get anything like accurate reports last night. The lt-ipublieans aro confidently bet ting on McKinley; and the Democrats still claiming the state for Campbell Tho disaffection of the working men at the McKinley tariff has been largely counted on by the Democrats; but how far this disaffection has gone, it Is im possible to say until the fall vote has been rounded up, and the result made known. Returns show gains on both tides, but at a late hour last night the vote was coming in very slowly even from the city, and the result will proba bly not be known fully before this mom log. The Democrats have probably carried Pennsylvania. For tho aeoond time the state has gone Democratic, and the Republican majority of nearly one hundred thous and hat been overcome, though Phila delphia maintained a Republican majori ty of 15,000, while the Democrats gained steadily all over the state, and have won by several thousand. The Republican campaign leaders had hoped that the memory of the Qnay-Delemater scan dals would die out after a time; but the renewed defeat has shown thorn that fraud Is not so easily forgotten. This Is an off year in Pennsylvania; but the election ia an indication for 1802, and it was on this account tint so much inter est was taken In the vote. In Iowa Boles, the democratic nomi nee, has made an increased gain, and fairly brought the state into the demo cratic ranks. Tne Iowa election was complicated by the introduction of the prohibition question, the democrats sid ing as a class with the Georgia idea of local option. The full democratic ticket has been elected, and the democrats arc confirmed In their last victory by an In creased mijority. In New York Tammany it making pre parations tor an enthusiastic celebration of a victory which belong peculiarly to that organization. From the flret the fight boa been made on it aa the leading feature of the cam paign; and the endorsement of the state has confirmed Its reputation as the home of true Democratic principle,. TOE BULLETINS. As will be seen from the telegraphic reports, the Tixbs-Recohdeb Is fully abreast of the demands of its readers for the news, and gives the complete returns as supplied by the associated press up to two o'clock this morning. As the bulletins were received, they were read to the anxious crowd from the business office of the Timbs-Recob- dbb, up to midnight, and the sub stance of them all can be teen this morning by those whose enthusiasm was not sufficient to keep them up last night. The complete service of news can be seen by the readers of Tub Tmaa-Ra- cobdbb this morning; and while no pre liminary blowing of trumpets was in dulged In, the pnbUo can see by com parison to-day that Americas’ news- gatherer got there by as large a majority aa did the Flower that blooms In New York. WASHINGTON LETTER. NEWSY ITEMS FROM OUR NATION'S CAPITAL CITY. Fragmentary Iteina From tb. Central City of Interest to the Beading Public—Gen eral rmomentary In Brief on Public Mat ters Prom tho Centerof Action. Washington. Nov. 2.—“If Steve El kins enters the cabinet,” said a republi can who knows his man well, "It will be to help Blaine and not to help Harrison os some people suppose. Elkins has more financial irons In the Are than any man I know, and you may be certain that he would not not be willing to neg lect them even temporarily if there were not some big political scheme to be worked up. Thou who talk about his selling out Blaine for a cabinet appoint ment simply expou their ignorance of the real relation between the two men— Elkins belongs as completely to Blaine as it is possible for one man to belong to anpther in this country, and, remember what I say, I do not believe that Elkins will go into tlie cabinet, but if lie does, It will be to help Blaine lay out brother Ben.” There seems to be a hitch somewhere in the selection of Secretary Procter's successor, as it is now announced that be may not leave the cabinet until just before congress meets. Some people are unkind enough to say that it is meroly tbe natural thrift of the man, which causes him to wish to rotain an 88,000 salary as long as possible before giving it up for one of only $5,000. A scapegoat has been found for tbe loss of tho United States steamer Dis patch, while on her way from New York to Washington, by the naval court of in quiry now sitting In Washington. It is tbe glass lens of the lantern of a light house, which according to the testimony of Lieut Noel, executive officer, made a light which should have shown white appear red, which caused him to change the sailing course wbiob had been laid by the commander before he went to bed. It has not yet boen decided wbat, If any, punishment shall be meted out to the derelict lens. Another southern olty will bo honored if some of tbe narrow-minded bictsd do not cause Secretary Tracy to change bis mind about naming cruiser ship No. 0, the sister ship to No. 10, launched at Baltimore day before yesterday, which has been named Detroit Mr. Tiacy lias almost promised that No. 0 shall be called Mobile. A number of national banks in differ ent sections of the country are doing business in violation of the law, by fail ing to substitute interest-bearing gov ernment bonds with tbe treasurer of the United States as security for tbotr circu lation, in placo of the 4J per cent, bonds so held, which bare ceased to bear in terest. Tho secretary of the treasury has been easy with the offenders because he hopes to be able to persuade them to continue their expired 4J per cents at 2 percent, which would make them avail able as security for circulation. This Is a little thing comparatively, but it gives an idea of the scheming done by Secre tary Foster to get money to meet the ob ligations of tho treasury as they mature. So far he has succeeded, but it is no se- oret here that he very much dreads the future when he shall have completely drained even all of tbe small sources of supply. Having mada public Its demands n.ion the Chilian government on account of the mobbing ol American sailors at Val paraiso and been answered by Chili’s note of defiance, the administration is now trying to discover tho proper way out. Sonor Montt, who represented tho Chilian junta hero for some months past, has been notified by cablo of bit appolptment as minister to this inter view witli Secretary Blaine, who declin ed to recognize him as the representa tive of Chili until ho presented his ere dentials. Boss Clarkson is again in Washington and ho struts around as though he had in bit inside pocket a reception bill of tale on the entire administration. Rus sell Harrison, who is also bore, Is quite chummy with Clarkson, and it would be difficult to say whloh of them is the greatest man in his own estimation. Secretary Blaine has now been in Washington almost a week, but the sun rises and sets just the same aa before his return. He may control tbe Republican party but that It about as far as be can go, and even that Is going to be disputed with him, unless all signs fall. Mrs. Thompson, of South Carolina, wife of the democratic member of tbe Civil Servlco Commission, has been elected president of a ladies organiza tion formed for the purpose of raising money by entertainments and otherwise to aid needy and disabled ex-confeder ate soldiers. Owing to this being the closing week of tbe state campaigns prominent demo crats are mighty scarce in Washington. Advice is valuable chiefly when it makes a man mad enough to follow his own ideas.
