Locil elections in off years are not always indicative of popular opinion on broader questions of public policy, but when they show a marked revul sion against the party victorious at the last preceding general election, it 1? difficult to overestimate their significance and importance. And seldom has a revulsion been more marked than this year. It be gan in the Connecticut town elec tions, was emphasized in those o! New York and New Jersey,found an echo in Iowa, and on Monday of this week had its most significant expres sion in Ohio and Michigan. The great republican cities of Cincinnati and Detroit have reversed, with tre mendous democratic majorities, their verdiot of last year. Elsewhere in the two states the reaction is equally marked and equally significant. And there is nothing of sectional politics in this revolt against the party in power. As all sections have suffered alike from the continued business depression and the delayed prosperity wave,so all sections voice the protest against these conditions. And if republican latuity persists, as it is now persisting, in foreing upon the country a new Bill of Abomina tions for the protection of Trusts and the oppression of the people, and if the democrats make no mis takes and sacrifice nothing of con viction to supposed expediency, Mr. McKinley will find, in the last two years of his term, a Congress with one hundred democratic majority on his hands.

He examined the case and decided that he did not care to have anything to do with it. This is a great disappointment to nis clients The fee they offered him was $2,000 more than he ever received for a year's salary, and involved compara tively little time and work, but from what Mr. Carlisle's friends eay $10,000 fees are a common thing with him now.
