The final catastrophe of a train of democratic disasters on Tuesday was not the happening of the unexpected. For weeks ami months previous to the event developments had attested thai an Irresistible wave of public dissatisfaction with the democratic party was sweeping over the html. Only mlndH Htuepcd In the double nitfht of moral and Intellectual bluntncss could havu been insensible to the coming deluge. What the Why should the tide of public sentiment. publican party.

In 3892, turn Uick and set overwhelmingly against the democratic In 1891? Mr. Carl Schnrz In his ro- ct'tit spewh at Cooper Union, New York, submitted i characteristic acumen and candor general explanation of this phenomenal change. "No doubt," said Mr. Schurz, "the hard limes have something tu do with H. In spite of the hard limes the democracy would have a good fighting ehnnero did It stand before the country with a elm ruder commanding respect and confidence.

does It not? Because of its professed principles and HH leading measure? No, if the choice between the McKInley a i and the Vi'Uouu j-tui-Jj uu thuii' Its, submitted to a popular vote I am confident the McKInley tariff would be voted down by decisive majority. Even thousands of repifblicHtis would voto nguingt it. What, then, is the trouble? I Is corrupt and treacherous leadership. It is your Tammany, your Hills, your Germans, your Murnhys, your Rrlces, your Smiths that have disgusted decent men and made them doubtful whether the democratic party Is capable of conducting the government honestly and for the general good." But this does not pluck out the whole heart of the mystery. The infamous history of ma- rhlne democracy in New York city and New York state and the record of pcr- tldy and dishonor made by mechanically affiliated democrats with their dickers and deals over the tariff problem in congress, hod their effect doubtless.

Them can be no question that It aroused the good conscience of the country, and especially the people who are democrats from principle and patriotism, to no common sense of abhorrence for the methods of the democratic party as actually organized and represented In office and legislation. It is not difficult to distinguish amid the din of recent elections the voice of this good conscience insisting that considerations of morality must prevail over considerations of party, and proclaiming the doom of a parly organl- n.itiun that presumes to hot selfish alms nnd interests above righteousness and patriotism. But this Is not all. Thought- and conservative citizens in all parts of tho country who. two years ago, assisted the democratic party to power because of republican excesses, became alarm Ml at the radical and dangerous tendencies of formidable elements of democratic fellowship here nnd there, and especially In the south and west, with regard to a currency policy and the i a interests of law and order and of constitutional security.

Those cltizer.s felt a I he should be rebuked and disciplined for fellowshlplng with radicals such n.s typified by Tlllman. AllKOld and other so-called democratic governors. ThU was not tu be done by i i the a and similarly radical populists. It only to be done by not i all. or by voting i republicans, whoso nvord on tho whole has of stonrtfnst i in the I of sound mom-y.

of law and order nnd of security for property. Thus In i its aspects the democratic defeat of Tuesday may be rogard-ed as eminently dlROlnlinary. It need not be fatal. But whether the defeat shall prove provisional ur Uirnl uud Ir re tr lovable will un how ttn Iwwvn In construed and heeded. SHALL TttK STATS ASSUME REOULA.

TlOlf ANI PROTECTION OF THE PARTIES? El Paso Times: The Oiilveston-Dallna News oppugns the thlrUMiiilh plank, of stale dumwrtitlc platform. 1C does so on the grounds of expense to the There are nu grounds for mieh opposition. That paper hitbgliufs that the leguihclns of party primaries will mean more elections at state expense. It will mean no such thing. The advocates of that plank and measure, like the Times, only auk what Is done In other states, which Is -that all parties be protected at their primary elections from the dirty work of unscrupulous scoundrels who manipulate voters and debauch their decency, defeating the will of the members of the party without committing any rrlnit 1 against the We only want a law that makes such offenses punishable for the protection of the sood class of cltl- RenB.

we want such acts punished by law. They are crimes and tho perpetrators should he treated as criminals. No one wants tho state to bear the expense of prl- many elections. They can be conducted us now, but the person who attempts or succeeds In buying; votes at the primaries, OP In voting there without the full right to do so, uhould be treated as felon, tried and punished by the courts. Without such a law the purity of the franchise can not be restored.

Present methods at primaries In El Paso, and In many other places, are only breeding and educating more criminals, whom the law at present does not punish. Why The Galveston-Dallas News protests aRuinst such a measure Is hard to' say. The only persons who have any reason to protest are the professional ballot thieves, hoodlumit and candidate bleeders, who live off their opportunities to corrupt and pervert the franchise. The man who Is defeated by unfair means i i the fold of his own party can nevor become reconciled to defeat. His ardor ns a party man is necessarily lesaened, for it is Impossible for him to retain respect for his party organization.

It is a question of "saving the party," as Tho Galvestou-Dallas News puts it. It Is a question of punishing crime so that the welfare of the people may not be diced. For the state to take supervision and control of the preliminary election assemblies and ballotlngs of the parties is for the slate to provide by law for the judges, clerks and peace officers necessary to conduct them. The Times fails to show why no additional expense will be Incurred by the state. That there' will be in such regulation and protection a big share of campaign expenses state to pay soes without saying.

It will come to that dust as the water from the hills flows into the river. The Times wants "all parties" protected, yet the democratic party, which has had full power In this state for so many years, Is the ntiu Olie )jy which any such undeino- ciuuc lesiciatlon la demanded. If the populists, the two republican factions and the prohibitionists are strong enough to purify themselves and to protect their organizations from fraud and outrage it ccrla.ln] seems that at least as much fr.irly be cxpoetccl of the democracy. The law demanded by the thirteenth plank of the state democratic platform is relatively to the party what the force Wll against which democratic orators declaimed so boisterously was to the country. If the democratic parly can not rid itself of "unscrupulous scoundrels who manipulate voters and debauch their deeoncy" then it should 'din the death.

If "present methods at primaries in El Paso and in many other places are only breeding and educating more criminals" then why not prohibit such schools of crime outright? Why not? Tho Times declares lhal "the man who is defeated by a i means within the fold of his own party nan never reconciled to defeat;" a "his nrrinr us ened;" yet the Times proceeds to add: "It Is not a question of saving the party." The Memphis Commercial in contending for such regulation and protection declares a "tire safety of the democratic party will not be assured until party primaries shall he placed under law nnd every possible safeguard against the debauchery of the ballot box bu provided." The Times asseverates tbiVt "It is not a question of 'saving the yet no other party has demanded such' assistance. "It is not a question of saving the party," yet according to the Times It is necessary to keep up "the ardor of the party man," ncpnivlfnrr In tha Memphis Commer cial the safety of the democratic party will be assured by It. It Is not consistent or seemly for democrats to clamor for such help after having fcught so vigorously the force bill and other regulative of like Import. In case the preparatory methods and dispositions of the politicians art taken under the legal patronage of the state the Times will see that the state will pay the expenses. Mark this.

As The News has heretofore said on this subject: Suppose a the should decide to takp charge of parfy conventions and primaries and to thua provide at ffreat expense for two retailor elections where only one is now provided for. a is there to prevent party heelers and brokers from arranging for preliminary expressions before the primaries and from stocking these preliminaries In order to win the primaries and to thus carry the final regular election? Suppose that the state should take uliurKe of the primaries, and.even tlu preliminaries, in an to crowd tho party brokers to the wall. a could prevent the Institution of ante-prelimlnas rios and preparatory caucuses, at which arrangements could bo made In advance to capture the advantage In all the various elections provided for at public expense ami to finally carry the at Che polls? I he about the matter Is a the more complications and of uftU-fal machinery there are, the more facilities for tho arts anu appliances of the machine politician and campaign professional there will bp. We have too much of such things already. The party politicians spuilunibii are always enter to their Held and to increase their capital.

Several weeks ago printed a circular letter from of the New Orleans board of trade attention to the ftueciul meeting of the eouth and west trade con'ttreM, to be held at New Orleans November 21, 22 and 23. This movement, which was BO auspiciously Inaugurated at Wichita, last April, bids fair to be the beginning of a bond of commercial union between the southern and western statea, such aa will be productive of Interior development, as well as beneficial in increasing the exporting and Importing business. The basis of representation will be as follows: Each commercial organization will be entitled to five delegates, each town and city to an additional five delegates appointed by the mayor, aRd one delegate from each transportation company. Including 1 their connecting lines. Up to date The News Das had reports of several commercial organizations and cities and towns taking proper steps to have representatives at the Now Orleans meeting.

The objects aimed at In the movement are worthy of attention and cooperation on the part of the citizens of Texas, who have much to gain ami ing to lose In being properly represented at New Orleans. "Sweet Marie" is now breaking a patient public down In the loins. Is it never right under any circumstances for a citizen to consider himself better than his party? Some, men have lived In office for a lifetime whose public services were curse to the people who fed and honored them. The press slipuld do its duty to the public first and discharge its obligations to the party afterward. It is just as bad to bribe voters with promises that can not be fulfilled as it is to buy them with counterfeit money.

The election is over. Go to work. Some of the candidates have navigated Salt river to its headwaters. The greater New York begins with the overthrow of Tammany, While horsp racing may encourage the fine stock Industry nobody can deny that it is hard on jackasses. The democratic party must save' Itself from Its own corrupt primaries and tricky conventions.

The state can not stop the public business In onlrr to stive H. Elections In this country are little more than desperate sporting events. Now let every man who has been elected recite carefully the sacred promises he made before the election. The emperor of China could not whip Japan, but he could beat his wife. Investors are not going to asriume all the risk without at least a lawful right to muke some profit.

Prohibition Against American Cattle Takes Another Turn in Berlin--Pensions. Postal Matters. Washington, Nov. Associated Press announcement that the German authorities may conclude to determine all possibilities of the Introduction of Texas fever Into the empire from Investigations of American veterinarians, which are now being translated, was received with great Interest by Secretary Morton of the department of agriculture, whose of retaliation by requiring a strict inspection of German wines and liquors has been told in these dispatches. The secretary has investigated the question am? finds that authority to entirely exclude German products in retaliation discrimination against American goods is vested in the president by existing law, a has been heretofore overlooked in the discussion of the question.

Secretary Morton had a conference with the president and laid the law before him. The law la entitled: "Ari act providing for an inspection of meats for exportation and prohibiting the Importation of adulterated articles of food or urink, and authorizing the president to make a proclamation in certain cases and for other purposes." Section 4 of the to which the secretary called particular attention of both the United States authorities and those of the German empire reads: "That whenever the president Is satisfied that there is good reason to-believe that an importation is being made or Is about to be made Into the United States from any foreign country of any articles used for human food or drink that Is adulterated, he, the president, may issue his proclamation suspending the importation of such articles from such country for such period of time as he may think And section 5 says: "When the nresident shall be satisfied that any unjust discriminations are made by, or under the authority of any foreign against the importation to or sale Tu auch foreign state any product of th? t'nitM president) may direct that such products of such foreign slate so discriminating against any product of the United States us he may deem proper shall be excluded from Importation to the United States, and in such cases he (the president) shall make proclamation of his direction In the premises and therein nume the time when such direction aealnst the Importations shull take effect, and after such date the importation o'f tin- 'urllulus named such proclamation slmll be unlawful.

Austin, Nov. scheme of reducing ernmental expenses--rather than increase the taxes--proposed by Governor-elect Cul- b'erson is likely to, be attended with insuperable difficulties. As a measure it was all right. The populists snapped at the bait and howled for retrenchment. Whether advocated by Cul- or Nugent it.

suited the general Ideas of the as implying extravagance on the part of the outgoing democratic administration. But while good for political purposes the scheme stands athwart the expensive reform movement of our administration, and threatens the interests of the official family and can never therefore be realized. The News published from Austin last week a statement of the estimates of expenses fo'r the ensuing two years of such departments and Institutions as had reported to Comptroller McCall to that date. The following Is a statement of these estimates compared with appropriations for the preceding two years, viz: 2 yrs. 2 yrs.

M. college 34,000 Total Increase $113,490 So It appears that 1 estimates received from twelve government departments and Institutions demand a net increase of 180,418 over their appropriations for the previous two years' term. If the departments to hear from present Increased demands In tho name ratio It will require 1428,090 for the ensuing two years than was granted the government the previous two years, while to get at a caah basin on existing tax rates requires a net reduction of 1409,000 eat'h year, or $818 000 for the. two years. This In the estimate of the governor-elect.

Me proposes to reduce the total while those who are running the depart men tK and Institutions appear to think $128,000 more than they expended the past two years will be required. These added together, show a difference of 11,246.000 between the governor-elect and the official family as to the requirements The present administration. Including the last legislature, utterly Ignored the fact clearly shown by Comptroller McCaU that If the estimates presented by the various chiefs were substantially adopted the revenues would fall far short of meeting expenses. So It is now that a floating tiebt of some 1650.000 against revenue has been created. The entlmates wore substantially adopted and though J3BO.OOO cf the were vetoed the treasury for six months has been bankrupt.

-Unless the governor-elect vetoes over of the appropriations he must Agree to' raise the tax rate. When the hungry pfflclal family swarms around the legislative halls and invades the committees on appropriations day and nlirhl. showing tho m-n-aith of their Institutions and the "ever IncreVs" Ing services of the public offices Jn consequence of the vast Increase In population, public business and material devel- opment'resulting from the of our reform the legislature will follow of Hie I I i Twenty-third and give the boys all ihey need. Take the north Texas lunatic asylum, for Instance. estimates have Increased.

Either It lias been wasting public money or the public service It performs may be dispensed with In part, rather than Increased in consequence of growing and Importunate demands upon that service. But the asylum people will show the legislative committees the actual necessities of the Institution, Will the lejdnlature just say, has been wasteful and Its demands are extravagant," and accordingly In compliance with the -ctrEncJinjeril ouheine of the governor-elect, reduce rather than Increase Its allowance? The Issue It joined. Another instance: The department of education makes slight raise In estimated expenses. Any one who has the hardihood to challenge the demands of the children's official friend will be considered a traitor to his country. The Increased expense suggested Is nominal.

Mr, Cooper ran that department on one-half the amount now required, but doubtless the stinginess of the legislature was a moving cause for his resignation. Not even the governor-elect will begrudge the small Increase proposed. The party is committed to the support and development of the 'public school system, yet the debt hanging over It has forced a large reduction In the allowance for tuition. Although tho children's and teachers' department is slightly shrunken, a little contracted and wrinkled ns it were. In consequence of snort rations, another part of the educational system, has developed and IB highly prosperous, ornamental and efficient.

The educational department at this city has prospered. It Is with pride the party can refer to Its loyalty to the public school system' ns shown by liberal support of the educational department In the granite capltol. In nearly every Instance the governor- elect will find the departments and Ins i i prepared to a i a i their de- mantis. There may be exceptions, as where new 1 boon i by people of the governor-elect. The present officials retiring from the arduous service of the country will not exercise unnecessary endeavors to maintain the offices they have honored another term with that splendor which has -brought the treasury to bankruptcy.

In sonic such cases ths governor-elect may cut expenses, but unless the administration of which he was an influential factor has been woefully a and i tho reductions i not oqna! Increased allowances. The government la upon an economical fuoiliiK, ti'il It Is i a useless nnd prorllKftl expenditure of public- money. It will be i i to watch tho come. Will governor-elect persuade the legislature there is a wicked And useless i of pinllc or will Hit 1 official a i be vindicated nnd their met by usual liberal and economical There will be sport In the conflict ESTIMATE OF A I 1 New York, Nov. cable to.e: 3 raphlo ndvices to Rrndstreet's cbver- Uniu-d States, Canada and Indicate the following changes in Blocks ot grain last Saturday, with the supplies, huiOtelrt, United Canada, east of the mountains: Wheat, In 2.198,0(10; Un.tcfl Stnten and Canada of the Hock niountalns, corn, decrease IM.OOfi; United States and Cnn- ot iiockx cats, i WMft tfawrtt t) iiMpMtt m.mi AjoiJ for an4 In IHw.
