Horton, the unseated senator from the Lenawee district, and his friends, made a great effort for a rebuke to the democratie senate at the election last week. At Hudson, the republican stronghold of Lenawee county, and the precinct where Morrow charged irregularities, a flaming legend "Remember Horton" was posted up. Hudson elected a democratie supervisor for the first time in many years, and the heavy republican majority was cut down to forty on the state ticket. InFairfield township, Horton's home, it was made the issue. Horton made speeches reciting his wrongs, yet Fairfield rolled up a heavy democratie majority. Republican Lenawee rolled up 300 democratie majority on state ticket. "God Help the Surplus-" It wil! take all the gold and silver produced in the world for four years to pay the appropriations made by the Billion Dollar Cpngress. All the wages of all the workers in every protected American Industry for three years. All the wages of all the workers in 1,005 cotton milis for twenty years. All the wages pid 1,000 woolen milis for forty years. All the wages paid in all the glass factories for 110 years. Our total wheat erop for 1890 will only pay one-third of it. Our total corn erop for 1890 will only pay two-thirds of it. "God help the surplus?" It is God help the workingman. - Republican Watchman.
