IHE lESSOI. }
The lessson of the recent national
election may be briefly Sulllltlt‘tl up.
Four years ago there was genuinel
sympathy in the land, for tho demo—l
cratit‘ party. This sympathy gavel
them a majority in both branches of‘
Congress and very ncarly pllt‘t'tl
Tilden in the presidential chair. All
seemed smooth sailing to absolute
power for them, and the leaders in
the South became haughty and arro
gant. From whining suivcllers
about being persecuted because of‘
their “mistakes” in rebelling against
national authority, they were sud—
denly transformed into defiant advo—
cates of the principles of the war
for the rebellion which they declared
still lived and would be vindicated.
Yes, they would “wipe out every
vestige of war legislation.” They
would achieve by the ballot what‘
they failed to accomplish with the
bullet. They would “vindicate the
sacred principles of State sovereign
ty." They would stimulate their
constituents to renewed exertions
by urging them to “consider the no
ble principles that Lee and Jackson ‘
fought for," etc., etc. The loyal re- ‘
publicans of the north became
alarmed. They were not: afraid ot
the northern democrats who were as
a rule staunch Union men; but they
recognized the fact that should the
democratic party obtain control of
the government the policy of that
party would be controlled by its
southern leaders where its center 0!
power lay. During the recent pres.
idential campaign there was much
'complaint among democrats about
republicans “waving the bloody
shirt,” but this complaint was
groundless, because the rebel lead—
ers of democracy had themselves
forced the old war issues upon the
people. The gauntlet was taken up,
and right nobly was the battle won.
As Gen. Garfield has tersely said
since his election as our President,
this contest teaches, Ist, that the
people of the United States are de
termined to bury rebellion, slavery
and State sovereignty beyond resur
rection; 2d, that they are unwilling
to narrow the sphere of American
politics to the range of personal vil
ification of candidates.
As one of the evidences tbet Ales
ke is coming to the front and being
greduelly recognized in the import--
once of her greet neturel wealth, we
will quote from en exchange: “A

enomeiy but the time is coming seen

ELECTION returns are so slow com

1 report. in tnbuln form this week,
n We bud intended.
Finnxn Murphy, of the Olympia
“Standard,” after publishing and (le
funding the disgusting abortion
known as the Morey forgery, gives
up the political fight in a prolonged
and sorrowful wail. In fact he takes
it “dreadful hard." He thinks the
mistake of the democratic party was
in not re-nominating Tilden. It
really does look as though the party
should htve put Tilden in the field
again if it had really wanted to have
been thought consistent in the great
fraud cry of 1876.
Now that the election is over, the
Anuus addresses itself again to the
honorable office of disseminating
such views as the public always re—
ceives with interest. We have on
deavored to maintain a consistent,
upright and honorable course, seek
ing to perpetuate good government,
and taking such interest. in politics
as only good and nutriotic citizens
take everywhere.
THE election in California. is so
close that only an official count will
decide the result. The indications
new are that the democrats will get
the electoral vote of the state, with
the exception of Judge Terry. The
republicans, however, claim a small
majority in both branches of the leg'
islature, with a. majority on joint
ballot of 12.
W 1: notice in the passenger list of
the Dakota, to arrive here on the
14th, the names of Rev. Jno. Reid
and wife. This means that the Pres
byterian Church, of Port Townsend
is to have a pastor again. We wel
come tho new comers in advance,
and hope their stay here will be both
pleasant and prosperous.
IT is said that Hon. John Sherman
will run for U. S. Senator from Ohio,
to fill the seat to be made vacant by
the resignation of Gen. Garfield.
Sherman could undoubzedly retain
his position as secretary of the treas
ury if he desired, but he evidently
prefers the arena of debate.
BETWEEN Messrs. Honey and Mc—
Renvey the vote is very close, as in
dicated by lute 'returns. Mr. Jno.
Alexander, of Island county, is most
likely elected Joint Representative
in his district, and S. Calhoun, of
LlConner, Councilman.
THERE will be no services next
Sunday in the Episcopal church, of
this place. Rev. E. Davis will
be in Port. Ludlow to hold services
on that day.
