The Result ot the Election.
I he American people have said
by their ballots that the Republican
party must step down and out and
tliat the Democratic party will take
charge of the ship of slate.
' l'he Democrats have elected not
only a majority of the lower bouse
of congress but have gained control
ot the \\ est V lrginia Legislature
and will name a successor to Sena
tor N. R. Scott.
What was the cause? Many
things no doubt contributed to
Republican defeat. It is the opin
ion of the writer that the high cusi
of living had more than anything
else to do with Republican defeat
throughout the nation. Whether
or not the the tariff has anything to
do with high prices we are uot pre
pared to sa\; but many people have
become discontented on account ot
having to pay so much for every
thing they eat and wear, and dis
content is Mire to vent itself against
the party iu power. Many thous
ands of Republicans throughout
the country voted the Democratic
ticket this year that have never be
fore voted that ticket and we dare
say will never again vote it. Thev
just imagined a change might se
cure for them cheaper grub and
wearing apparel.
Another thing which helped do
feat the Republican party in this
state was tho arbitrary way in
which the stale committee has been
doing business, the officeholders on
the committee desiring to hold on
with a death-like grip to their posi
tions and thereby perpetuate them
selves in office.
But this lease of power for the
democracy is not likely to last long.
We believe the Republican party
will clean its house with a leorgam
zation that will not be partial to a
few’ politicians, and strengthened
by this defeat will assume entire
control of governmental affairs in
1912.
Hurrah tor St. Louis.
The Republicans of St. Louis
wou a great victory. Barring only
a couple of constables and two jus.
tices of the peace, the Republican
victory was complete. Not even a
member of the General Assembly,
of whom eighteen were elected in
St. Louis, was allowed the Demo
crats, and the pluralities of the
candidates on city tickets range
from 20,019 to 27,984.
I he Advance congratulates the
Republicans of this county on their
good work at the polls. While the
organization of the grand old par
ty went to pieces all over the state
the vote in this county shows the
Republicans of old Wavne |wt*re
uoilcd ami loyal to the party, llad
the Republicans in all the other
counties of the state voted ami
worked as did those in this county
every Republican candidate for
congress in West Virginia would
have been elected.
--—- —
A democratic exchange thinks
neither McGraw nor Chilton should
be considered wflen it comes to
making a choice for U. 8. senator.
Kditor John J. Cornwell would
make a creditable senator. He is
conservative and sensible.
Tijk Democratic landslide was
caused by Republican votes. These
votes were only loaned, temporarily,
to the Democracy, in 1912 they
are likely to be cast for the Re- j
publican ticket.
Who would have thought it!
ike i ri-State Enterprise flopped to
democracy only three or four weeks
ago and almost the entire country
has been changed politically. What
jgreat influence!
*-- ---
i ks it was a landslide sure
enough. Had it not been the
Republican candidates in old Wayne
connty would have certainly been
elected.

JUST A MINUTE—
NOVKMHBR.
Mr. Tuft, who rule-s the nation
Offers this, his proclamation :
Whereas, Providence continues
Blessing us from clay to day,
And the boon of indeptmd nee
lias, we take it, come to stay ;
And whereas, Indulgent Nature
Lavishes upon as still
Bounty in excess of wlmt the
Weather and the bugs can kill;
And « herein?, The old republic
Couldn’t be* unproved upon,
Not A-ithstandiug everybody
Cots to run it off and on ;
Therefore, I, as delegated
Now and for a short tune hence
President, decree that turkey
Shall go up to SO cents.
That's about all there i» to it. Once
the country raised its own, and the
White House proclamation whs not
greeted with a groan. Father simply
grubbed the hatchet, mother got the
water hot, father read the proclumut'on
to the turkeys in the lot, all the young
and female turkeys promptly fainted
from the shock, and after due farewells
the gobbler laid his head upon the
block .
No one telephoned the bnteher, ask
ing what a turkey cost. No one in his
deep resentment wished the Pilgrims
hud been lost. No one, while the feast
proceeded, knew the torment of the
rack figuring upon his napkin what the
clay had set him back.
Everybody was provided, as the
founde rs pre-supposed. No one can be
very thuukful, if the truth should be
disclosed, paying what we pay for tur
key, nud, for all of Heaven’s gifts, feel
ing that the day was founded for the
Armours and the Swifts.
November gets its name from the
Latin uovem (nine) and was originally
the ninth month of the year. This
brought Thanksgiving around two
months earlier than we have it now, and
it became very unpopular. The in
surgents, who constituted a majority in
the agricultural districts, were bitterly
opposed to \f. They mude two conten
tious: First, that young turkeys were
not old enough to market; second, that
crops had not progressed to the point
where it was possible to make out
whether there was anything to be thank
ful for or not. In 713 B. G. the storm
broke. The insurgents carried Gaul,
j Britannia and 17 other doubtful states,
| and the Forum immediately assembled
and made November the eleventh mouth
of the year.
The festive colt will snuff the air and
don his heavy underhnir, and the
frenzied candidate will jump and hop
| around the stump. He’ll point with
pride ^nd view with fear, and suck and
blow the atmosphere, and then, together
with his cult, await with prayer the re
sult.
Does reason haply hold its sway, or
is it madness for a day will tell the peo
ple what to think and put the country
on the blink ? One cannot tell, but must
abide the count that sees him justified
in courage, confidence or doubt, accord
ing ns it may turn out.
One thing alone is sure, it seems, and
that is this: No one esteems a patriot
in politics. We only trust him while
lie sticks to war, with ull its thrill and
throb. The moment that he wants a
job somewhat conspicuous for pay , by
Jove ! we don’t know what to say.
But whether we do i'lor well, election
day alone can tell, or whether love for
us and fear did any good, will then ap
(>ear. We have to judge men as wo
may, and where the candidates all say
about the same thing m the end, one
scarcely knows who is a friend.
At any rate, the show will fly, and
the wild duck spin across the sky with
ts»th eyes focused on the ground, and
his tail-pie ce going round and round.
The eager hunter will deploy and
supplement the live decoy, and the
pneumococcus, while ho toots, will per- !
forate hi* rubber boots.
A little shooting now and then in
relished by a lot of men. They likff* to
gallivnnt about and let the farmers
run them out. It does them good to!
feel, by jing, that Morgan don't own
everything, and if he came in conse
quence, and also tried to climb the
fence, togethe r with his dog and gun
he, tc»o, would also get the run.
November will be nnusnal this year, j
for the: reason that there will be no full j
moon. This is because there will Ik? a i
total eclipse? of tho moon on the night
of the 10th, when it wonld otherwise be
fall. This eclipse will Ik? visible in !
the United States and in Wall street, i
and it will send bacon down a conple of j
points.
The breath of Winter will distil upon
the outer windowsill, and; the chilling
•
calf will hmnp bis back aud burrow
deeper in the stack. The hired innn,
with wintry spurts, will put on both his
undershirts, and the plutocrat who sells
us coals will pry our bodies from our
souls.
Then let us all embrace the chance
aud tie as merry as we mav, for whether
we desist or dunce, the fiddler is for all
to pay. The gentle autumntime will
pass, the countryman will kill his hogs,
the cotton-tail will weave the grass
around the obtuscuted dog-, the honk
ing goose will rule the heights with that
weird hollering of his, and the wolf will
sit around o’uights uud tell the moon
how thm he is.
O woe is us that could enjoy the au
tumntiine for aye and uye, and what
with growing soul, employ its witchery
from day to day The phosphorescence
in thesky, the quail soft-piping on the
hill, the olackbirds ever bobbing by,
and the wind soft sighing where it will.
But happiness can never last, as An
tony could apprehend, and holding Cleo
to him fust, destroyed himself before
the end. The summer cometh after
spring, and winter, merciless withal, as
truly must succeed, the sweet aud gentle
bauitishineuts ot tail.
At any rate, upon a day
Deciphered in tin* almanacs,
December, desolate aud gray,
Will come to whistle through the
cracks. '

It’s nine to be the Only One,
Your mother loves you so
When neople want to lioriow yon
She hates to huve yon go;
But when she goes away herself
Or ladies come to call,
It ’s lonesome in the garden
And it’s lonesome in the lmll,
And then yon want Another Ono
To langh at yon and say,
* ‘LittleOnly, little Lonely,
Never mind ! Let’s play !”
It’s nice to lie the Only One
When father’s home at night,
But it’s lonesome in the nursery
When he takes away the light.
You think how cozy Two would be—
Another little bed
And another little pillow
And another little head ;
You shut your eyes and think and
think
Until it’s nlmo-t true:
*1 Little Only, little Lonely ,
Here’s a Twin for you !*’
