THE WEEKLY TELEGRAPH: MONDAY. NOVEMBER 28, 1S92 5 ON THE ELECTION. Iflterfiting Democratic Politics by a Republican. The following interview coming from Jostxm E. Gewi. a Repubrcnn, I* Interesting. He *sp: He result, of tho election are a groat porjmac, I tliink, to everyone. WHc it ^rai generally conceded on the evo of election Alt tho Dmnocrats would cany JJew York state, It was thought by Re publican managers that such stales as Indiana ami Illinois would certainly de- elars for the present incumbent. Prob ably tho greatest surprise to both partita vaf tbe secession of the latter state to die Democratio column. The Increased registration In Cook county ought to bar. been an eye-opener, for th* reason that the rotes in nearly all at the large titles affiliate with the Democrats, but tbs Republican leaders apparently did not anticipate -the result that followed, otherwise greater efforts would un doubtedly have boon put forth to turn tbc tide, althougt It is posaible that the local issues In Illinois and Wisconsin, growing out of the school agitation, would have made the result the same In would bars made the result the f .me in those states. However, it is of no use now to think of what might have been done. Ha country has declared for Mr. Cleve land in mo unequivocal terms, and a* bis party has already carried the upper buue of congrees, thereby giving the Democrats full control of both branches of the government. It la likely to soon put into practice his well known views on the tariff. The country, after n long psriod of dulnrai, la at last beginning to Show signs- of activity, and it seems un fortunate that the neoplo should decide (bat the now tariff law now needs tinkering so soon after its enactment and before sufficient tims has really sis used to prove Its desirableness. He English paper, are rejoicing at the retuk of tbe election and are al ready roanting oa better times In Groat Britain, on the expectation that their eiports to tins country will soon be on a largely Increased scale under a more favorable tariff. With their hopes realized tbe workmen in this country will have an opportunity to learn what competition really means with countries where low wages prevail, as they do in England, Germany ond Prance. How ever, they have called for a dhango from existing conditions, and It is no more tban right that they should be permitted to try to solTe the problem In their own way, Inasmuch is they are in the ma jority, and if lower wages do follow they will be the chief mourners. Tbo Democrats certainly deserve credit for the able manner in which they handled their forces and money. Probably no party ever went Into a presidential elec tion better equipped and so thoroughly organised as our Democratic friends In that last campaign. Party differences ' and factional fights, which eeemed at the outset liable to split the party in twain, were subsequently entirely ellml- uated (owing to Mr. Whitney’s persua siveness) and instead of lukewarmness end apathy oa displayed in some Repub lican quarters .they worked for all they were worth, making every atroke tell, and succeeded in landing Mr. Cleveland high and dir above his competitors. Tiieir tank of course was natde much easier uwuis w toe imti wet Mr. Cm’v- land'i strong ysmoaolky makes him popular with the masses, particularly with the Gorman clemont. and it la ex tremely doubtful if any other candidate oouid have carried oa many states as Mr. Clot-eland—possibly not enough to bare elected him. Several other causes militated against the RepubLcan party. Take, for Instance, tbe Homestead troubles, and although the Republican# were in no way reepon- ribls for them, they undoubtedly had con siderable to do in aberrating (he votes <-f the party, which is clearly shown In tbe decreased majority given -a some of tbe states aa compared with 1888, where protection is without doubt beneficial, no matter what may be claimed for ft hr' other itales. The fact that such a vast army of worklnonm were signally beat en m their fight with Carnegie, a mem ber of the Republican party, «n<l who ii generally supposed to derive more bene fit from a h-gh tariff than any other mnur ufseturer in the United Btatas, was in itself euffldent to drive them into the Democrat's arms, for not being able to vent their spleen openly against Carne gie, they thought they saw a chnuce to injure him by oastipig a vote for free trade, and In this they wens assisted by a large number of (heir,fellow workmen throughout the country, for It must not be forgotten than ben; is always a bond of sympathy among the laboring classes iu mauers of this kin-1, owing to the fact trade union. Tbe Lodge bill was anoth er obstacle in tbs way of success, and was about as obnoxious to some of tbe Republic#!!* as to thdr opponents, sod the chines of carrying any of the Southern tutu with such a measure in sight was clearly out of tbs question, aud was emphasised very strongly in the increased majorities rolled up lor Mr. Cleveland douu South. It la always easy, when the smoke deara awty after a battle, to discover fts causes which led to defeat, and so It la now. Were tho baltlo to be fought over again, with tho knowledge now pinsd. it Is likely that somewhat dif- tattles would bo omployod—but J *• possible that tbo result would have **•0 the mom In any caao, for it is now •weeded by a groat many Republican leaders that tbo McKinley bill was an unpopular measure.

This might be <»a*tru«l into meaning that the McKinley measure was to be rcpoaled at once. While tbo peo ple certainly expect a revision of the tar iff, 1 do not think thy luteud that any rit-k or extreme measures should be ta ken which would bo likely to unsettle business, and they relied on Mr. Cleve land's good souse to see that the work of revuiou should bo gradual rather than precipitate. ThertiV.il naturally be some timidity on the part of capitalists about engaging in now enterprises, and Mr. Cleveland's inaugural ^address and first" message to congress will bo awaited with some anxiety. If hia line of policy la one of conoerraciam; aa most people believe, confidence, which has to some extent been shaken by the change, will then be restored. Trade oondklous are hi such satisfactory shape at the present time nut our country is bound TO prosper, unless legislation of an adverse nature is thrust upon us, and with the great benefits to be derived from the World's Fair next year, I feel confident that the future is one of hopefulnots, and if our people will only view the situation in this light, instead of indulging in wild forebodings, they will do much in keeping the country’s, affaire in a healthy state, which in the end must inure to their benefit. The gold and silver prob lem seems to be more serious than any other which this nation will have to grapple, and unless the monetary con ference, which la soon to convene nt Bruxelles, can devise some means whereby the two metals will be socept- ed os currency in all the loading coun tries on an equal footing—which can oifiy be dons by setting a fixed standard between the two metals, and each coun try agreeing to use booh impartially aa n medium of circulation, k will stand as a menace, wlileh sooner or later must be followed by disaster. In this connection it is interesting to note for the sake of comparison, the uoh?- ings of gold and solver, (roughly esLmai- ed), In the three leading government banks of Europe. Tbe Bank at England holds (121,000,000 gold, against $114,- 500,000 last year. The Bank of France S3;14,!i00.000 gold and $254,000,000 s Iver against $203,000,000 gold and $240,000,- 000 silver l ist year. The Bank of Ger many $101,000,000 gold and $04,000,000 silver against $100,000,000 gold and $50,500,000 silver Inst year. It will be seen from the forgo.ng that tbe Bank of England bos increased its gold holdings $7,000,000 daring the year and the Bank of France $b0,o5),000, the Bank of Ger many showing a loss of about $5,000,000. It it difficult to make a comparison be tween tho banks on the other side and the hanks on this for the reason tint <h* country has jo regular govern ment hanks, bnt in order to form sn idea it wi'l be proper to glance at the hold ings of gold and a'lver in the United States treasury st the preswat time, ss compared with one year ago, which are aa follows: Gold (including $100,000,000 held In re- servo for tbo n-demptiou of greenbacks) 8 124,<500,000; hurt year, $127,074,000. liver. $407,500,000; last y«*r, $408,- 400,000. While the European banka have been adding to their hoard of gold we hare allowed ours to diminish $3,- 000,000 ana nave increased our saver holdings to the extemt of $40,000,000, and it is only at the expense of ths na tional banks, which have contributed $1-1,000,000 of their gold holdings that tho United States treasury Is able to make even this showing. The gold ex port* since January 1 arx-regnte S0!).- 000,000, and ns most of this has been •applied by the national banks k does not of nourso show In the treasury bal ance. These ore facto which sooner or later must bo mdt face to face, aud yet tbe silver inou arc not •nU-ui-'l aud are cryiDg for more silver. The eituatioo Is bad enough now, but what would it be wish a free coinage bill passed which would admit the product* of the world Into our mints? We would soon be on n silver basis, while tho other nations would stick to gold, and a financial panio iu this country, sooner or liter, would be inevitable. It ie to be hoped, how ever that such n dire calamity will bo averted and (hat the Bruewla confer ence will be able to arrive at a result satisfactory to all. Uf 1‘rot.,lout Harrison's administra tion, which is now drawing to a close, nothing but words of praise can be said. Daring his term of incumbency hs has had a good many knotty ques tions to decide, and In handling them be has proven to the whole world that he is preeminently the right man in ths right place. His odmirtialration will compjre favorably with that of any of his great predecessors, aud In genera tions to come the name of Benjamin Harrison wiS still live as one of the greatest presidents this country has ever produced. It seems a pity, with such a splendid record as be has omde, that be should now be obliged to step down and out to mate room for his succes sor; four years more as chief executive of the nation could not have failed to add to tho glory already achieved, and with such an able vice president ns Mr. Reid would have made, the second term of Harrison would have shown even more brilliantly than the first, and could not have failed to meet the approval of all fair-minded citizens, whether Repub lican. Democrat, PopulDt or Prohibi tionist. James B. ’Clews. A ROMAN FEAST. Enormous Sums Spent to Provlds a single Dinner. From Chamber's Journal. As exemplifying the pitch to which Ro man oplcurianism was carried, and In dicative of'a truly barbarous nature, a ,1 a.; consisting of tho og.gucs only uf some thousands of the favorite song- stem uf Che air was requisitioned at an immense cost to satisfy the inordinate cravings of one of the emperors. One can hardly avoid (he reflection that such a be.ug must have been exowdlngly un- tuneful. Tho liver of oapon stwyied ss m.lk was thought to be a great delicacy, and of solid meat, pork appears TO bare more relished. The staunch Roman, who did not take his pleasure homeopath!ually, re clined tiuriug dinner on a luxur.otu couch he loud resting on his left elbow, sup- porn-l by cushions. .Suoronloui draws attention to n superb apartment, erected by ah* extravagant Nero, iu whioa his meals were partaken, constructed Lfce a theatre, with shifting scenes, changing with every course.

Helena. Muo. Nov. 23.—Montana 1ms at L-^t made Aomeihlag aaw uild^r too «iuj. It a woman vtijeovy gvoens n young -woman, jnd a iiretty one at that. The Fopuli»ta, who have done so many queer- things, have this peculiar political iroak .-llso to theif credit. And y<‘t there Is little doubt Miss Ella. L. Knowles, who ha* been elected to the office, will mako an excellent tornoy General. Sin* is full of brains, dauntless, self-confident and plucky. She had two contestants against_“ er ” Haskell, Republican, and D.iy, Denao- Caat. She leads them both by 300 vote*. Unofficial fiffutvs of tho legislature show: Senate. 10 Democrat*, 5 Repub lican*, 1 in doubt: house, ‘Jo Democrats, 23 Republicans, 4 People'* party, e®d .3 in doubt One of the Populist* wai indorsed by Democrat*, and is pledged to vote for a Democratic United btates »onator. Tbe vote in doubtful districts, so dose that it wJl take the official couni to decide. Giving the Republ can* all four, the Democrat* will still bnjt • majority of one on the Joint ballot, rms Insure* the selection of a Democrat to succeed Sanders, Republican, in the United States senate. _ Enough returns are in to show a He- pulblicen majority on tho preaidental ticket, congreesmen and all the tfa** Hcket, except attorney general and Rlake for chief justice of die supreme court, who was beaten by Pemberton, Democrat and Populist. Mi** Ella T. Knowles, attorney gen- eral-elert of Montana, was born 28 year* ago in Nortbwood. S. IL She is a grad uate of Bates* College in Lewiston, Me.. *ud ha* taken the degree of master of art* ftrom that Institution. Her legal studies wero prosecuted in tbe law office of Burnham & Brown, in^ Manchester, N. H.. and later hi Helena. Mon. There was considerable prejudice against al lowing her to practice. So the pluccy young woman went to work to influence the legislature—it wa» the Territorial legislature of 1888-89— to pass a bill admitting women to practice law. Western chivalry could not withstand her. and the bill was passed. In December, 1890, she was ad mitted to the bar, and now *he has a nractice of which many men would be proud, to say nothing of her prospects politically. Miss Knowles is described in being reiy womanly in appearance. She is tbe only woman lawyer in the state, bnt even in to her profession she carries the gentler virtue*. She ht* all a woman's keen sensibllitac* and trader sympathies, and all the roughness of Western life with which she has come in contact has not impaired these qualities. In appearance she is more like a demure young matron than a stern Portia. She is of medium height, neither thin nor stout, ha* a face which, while* strong and firm, is also pretty. She believes in tier right to practice law and to be paid for her legal services, and she believed in her right to be attorney general of Montana : J she could get enough votes. The Peo ple’s party liked her spirit, and when it came to make np & ticket last July it gave her the nomination. She conducted a spirited campaign and all tho credit of her victory belong* to herself. HOW TO MEET It7 v Catching* Pave* the W»if to Raise the Revenue*. Washington, Nov. 23.—Mr. Catch- Inca, a leading member of the house committee on rules, is now in Wash ington, and is quoted In an Interview us expressing bis belief that tbo pres ent congress will do nothing to lessen the burdens of the Incoming adminis tration and that the new congress will be compelled to toko necessary steps to Increase the revenues. He does not believe that a revision of tho tariff can be successfully undertaken during a special session, but ho does hold tbit In n special session the new congn--s might properly repeal the McKinley act, thus restoring tho old duties of 1SSS. That would wipe out KH bounties, effecting a saving of $13,000,- 000 annually nail at same time by re storing sugar duties add about $60,000,- 000 to tho annual revenues, making a total Increase of revenues approximate $05,000,000. This Increase, be feels, would prevent any deficiency till after tho next regular session aud powlb.y for a longer period. Cntchlngs would also pass the sep arate tariff bills that wero passed last session by tho house, lie would also add lumber aud suit to tho free list The reduced prices of tbe necctianes of life covered by tho bills would, ac cording to bis reasoning, reconcile the people to tho relmposttlon of sugar du ties. Ho favors an early special ses sion of congress. He thinks that Crisp will bo re-elected speaker without a protracted straggle utul believes that tho pension roll could bo revised with profit. Cntchlngs sein no danger of wild cat money In the passage of a bill to removo tax on state bank circulation and favors that bill If tbo states aro obliged to insure tbe soundness of their bank Issues. Ho also favors tho .admission as states of Arizona and New Mexico, nnd local government for Utah and Oklahoma. 8o far as this congress Is ooncemed, ho thought it would no more than pass tho regular uuuual appropriation bills.
