The Democracy is t) tw c'DgratoliVd more than any individual, for it is a great victory for the pirty and a vindication of party harmony sad discipline The Republican leaders deserve the sin cere condolence of everybody, for they are “ia the coop.’’ They confi dently counted on seating a Republi can in the l’sited States Senate, and they would surely have done so had the Demo crats bi« u less loyal to their party and the people. Mr. P*>kk is to be congratulated on the thoroughness of his Democracy a« exhibtrd in his determination not to stand in the way cf his pirty’s itKCW. though he did violence to personal preference. Mr. DoKR his sho-n himself a true blue Democrat in sacrificing ks o-vn strong desirts to the will 01 the party. He stood ont very nearly to the last against the greatest pressure and the shai p >t criticism, bnt when the time c rue for him to chouse betweeu Bell and party hie vote was for his party.
