Leading democrats of the
county say that with a county
organ they could have made a
better showing in the recent elec-
tion.
Till: HK.HI LT.
The election Tuesday resulted
in a sweeping victory for the Da
tionul domocraey. Cleveland
eleeted president and has votes to
spare. Old rock-ribbed rejiub
lican Illinois will cast her elec-
toral vote for Cleveland and
Stevenioii. That state with New
York, New Jersey and the solid
south did the business tor the
democrats. California, Indiana,
Ohio, Montana and Wyoming are
claimed by the democrats, and
the result in those states is still
doubtful and it will require tlie
official count to determine the
result.
Weaver carried Colorado, Kan.
sas, Nevada, Idaho, one tlector
in Oregon, 4 in Minnesota, and
two or three more states are claim
ed lor him but it will require the
official count to determine who
has carried them.
The Peoples party elect the en
tire state tickets in Colarada,
Kansas and Nevada. They elect
flor 8 Congressmen in Kansas,
both from Culorada and one
in Nevada. There will probably
be 25 Peoples parly members of
the next congress and from 4 to
0 in the U. S. Senate.
Weaver's vote will probably
exceed 2,000,000.
Jerry Simpson will probably
be elected to the P. S. Senate by
1 lie next session of the Kansas
legislature to succeed Perkins.
Below we give the full returns
ol tlie county:

Strike Itills
Government statistics show
that in seven years, taking all to-
gether, there were, in ti e United
States, nearly 20,COO strikes ol
workingnten or employes of var-
ious sorts, and that these strikes
cost the strikers nearly }52,000000
What they cost the employers is
not known, but brobably was not
a less amount.
riie number and costliness of
strikes increase from yeartoyear
and as they become frequent and
and more expensive, they also be-
come more bitter and harder to
settle.
The last summer has the sol-
diery called out in four States at
Ihe same time, to suppress riot-
ous disturbances in some wuvl
connected with strikes. Probably I
the total "strike bill'' of <his year
will surpass in magnitude any
which has been incurred before.
It is impossible to settle the
"rights and wrongs" 0f strikes
offhand. Sometimes the employ-
es are exacting, and unreasonable
and uhfriendly to their employers.
Sometimes the employers'
goad their workman to open re-
sistance by unjustice, a grasping
policy, to overbearing insolance.
Put nothing could be clearer
than that the cost of strikes, in
in the long run, is just so much
taken away front the general
wealth of the community. Noth-
ing could be more wasteful of the
resources ot both parties to a con-
troversy. No doubt it would lie
less harmful, because less pro-
ductive ot the bitterness and
hatred that leads to future trouble,
it the millions of dollars which
strikes cost were taken out and
publicly burned rather than
spent in the way they are.
Let us hope that the practical
sense ot the American people
will, before many years, hit upon
some satisfactory means by which
this trightlul and menacing
strike welfare can be prevented.
The democrats claim that the
P. S. Senate after the 4th of
next March will stand democrats
42, republicans 43 and Peoples
party 2. But will have 4 certain
and probably ti members after
March 4th.
Dennis Flynn is elected to cou-
gress from this Territory. The
democrats claim 7 of the ]«'? mem-
bers or the Territorial council
and a majority of the house of
representatives.

Speaking of elevaiora, it is astonish-
lug what a diltorenco thoro is in tu«
speed of those commonly used novrn
d ys and those that wero put in 15 or
20 years ago whon such conveniences
were just coming into general use.
""one would bo satisfied with the
•low machines that wo o then consid-
ered of so much advantage, hleva-
tors are an absointo necessity now
with ail the tall buildings that tha
City possesses and naturally Ihoy
have kept pace with other things.
Tho fast ones nowadays aro very
fast indeed. We nro getting used to
thcin o.' coursa hut 1 can well ro-
membor how my heart used to leap
up into my throat when a fast oievo-
tor with mo In it began its down,
ward trip or whenever it stopped and
started again, i found nr. easy way
of over coming tho feeling, however.
I hat was simply to loolc down at my
feet each time a now start was made.
1 don't know tho philosophy of it, but
know that the roni- uy is e tactual ia
my own ca-a i'erhaps if those ladies
who had to got out ol n fH9t elevator
down town tho other day had known
ot my little remedy thoy would not
have been compollod to alight.
They probably had a genuine sea-
sick feeling, or something of that na-
ture 1)0 you know that the men or
boys who run elevators often have lo
go through an oipcrlonco liku that
which sailors aro compelled to under-
go at the beginning of their seafaring
life.' asks Iho New York Tribune. And
there aro somo who never can over-
come tho soasick foeltaff that riding
up an I down in rn elevator, especially
rapid one super,uduces. I don't
know whether tho snm.i proportions
hold good that 1 have been told exist
In the , ies of people who go lo sea.
You know it is said that three o?r
cent, of human beings aro never sea-
sick. that threo per cent, aro always
seasick oa the water and that the ra-
®" 'nf '1 P01' cent, aro sometimes
allhcled in this way and soinetimos
not.
Kft I can t give you any informa-
tion on that point, but one thing a! out
elevators I know and that ii that the
host style is ono that is broad without
boing very deep. Those of the oilier
kind —that is. narrow and deep aro
much lesi convenient for leaving whon
there are a largo number of persons
aboard If one happens to get Ihrust
back into a corner of such an elevator
and wuuts lo get out en route he will
often havo considerable d llioulty in
doing so.
