The Radersburg - correspondent to the Townsend Messenger is a genius, as will be seen from the following squib, culled front his letter of last week: thotigh, of course, it doesn't apply to any title in Wickes: \Did you ever have folks pout at you?

Wasnington and the co.untry appear to be in for an unusually big (lose of politie:s considering that this is an off-year. The one-sided way in which the important state elections west :Lee responsible for the political deluge alive:it-411g ahead of time. The repub- licans are intoxicated nith joy al their success, which they acknowledge was much greater than they expected. and the detnocratsare as badly intoxicated with disgust.. With the ineutbers itt those parties representing those two periods of a \jag” it may lie imagined that much Of the talk. is maudlin. The republicans all assume that- the presi- dential election is already settled, and therein lies their danger.. That as- sumption will make the fight I/Ver the republican nomination all the more bitter, and bitter tights, over nomina- tions have before now resulted in dis- organization and defeat for political parties. So far as the dlinmerats are con- cerned, the result of their defeat in New York, Maryland, Kentucky and Ohio seems to have resulted in it whole- sale killing of their presidential possi- bilities in the persons of Senators Hill. Gorman and Brice, Ex -Gov. Campbell and Secretary Carlisle, and of throw- ing a very wet blanket over their hopes of electing any' man president next year. Pi-esident ( I teYtelatid is said not to be doing any • worrying - over this killing, but even Mr. Cleve- land must know that his party cannot possibly win without carrying at least three out of those four states. One of the actual results of the elec- tion, in national politics, will be to give the republicans a majority of the senate after March 4, 1897. Should they elect the president and retain control of the house the country will have the unusual experience of seeing one political party lose the presidency and both branches of congress and regain them within four years, as the republicans lost all three branches of the government when the present ad- ministration came in. But this is going ahead too fast. fhe first sessiots of the 54th congeess, soon to begin, has a part to play in this game of poli- tics before the game is won. Considerable speculation is being indulged in as to whether sOttile remarks made by Comptroller Eckels, in a letter on the national banking system, concerning the treasury notes, repre- sents the administration's attitude toward those notes. Speaking of the first issue of treasury notes and the part taken therein by Secretary Chase, then at the head of the treasury, he said: ''Had he fully foreseen then what is ho clear now, the evil following front such issues, I am confident that all of his great abilities would have been so used against these issues that no treasury currency would ever have been put forth, and the country thus :spared the unnecessary loss, and ex- pense attendant therhon. He never appeared to better advantage • than when as chief justice of the supreme court he held against that wbich. its secretary of the treasury, he had pas- sively approved.\ He,added that the treasury notes ought to be abolished,. and that he believed they soon ‘eolild be. If President Cleveland '1 - com- mends the withdrawal of the treasury notes, he must atSo.„recot lllll rod a, , ine way of getting the money to redeem them, and his recommendation v.ill find sturdy eppositionln congress it it does not include sOme other form of currency to take the place of treasury notes and prevent coutruction of the volume of Money in circulation. If Hon. Marion Butler, the new pop- ttlist senator from North Carolina. talks on the floor of the senate as he does now he is likely to become pr pent before the session ends. For instance, he says concerning the reorganization of the senate, that front the best information he can ob- tain a majority of the senators have been for years professing their desire to show their constituents how much they would do for silver if they only had an opportunity. Mr. flutter thinks the opportunity at hatfd, and says that if the senators fail to organize the senate on a non-nartisan silver basis these professed friends of silver sh....r-1 be called upon by their silver cons. t tient,. for an explanation, and he I - mate,: quite broadly that he may feel Called lupoim to ask ft.i s explana- tion on the floor of the senate should the action or rion-aetton of certain senators he called no munes be of a nature to require them.
