Pennsylvania. And though, perhaps,
the hopes which we entertain of ultimate
success in 1914, may deprive us of
portion of credit for submission, yet on
the whole, We are no: willing to forego
The credit that is placed to our account.
But we are used To it--used to see tide of
politics note lis changes by wave marks.
and he must be blind, indeed, who docs
not know thar even i'll an advancing tide,
there are moments when the edge of the
current is below the water mark of the
previous wave.
| With reference to the elections of 1914
the W hlgs occupy the same relation, in
regard t. time, which they did in 1898,
with reference to the Presidential election
III $50. And with the exception of the
distracted state the the Locofoco party, in
reference to their Presidential candidate,
the circumstances, TO almost every thing
else, is nearly the same.
In 1888, the State of PENNSYLVANIA.
elected Governor Porter by majority Of
5l0j.
And yet in 1910, PENNSYLVANIA cast her
electoral vote agains the Locofoco candi-
da'e for Presidency.
In iS3S, DELAWARE elected Mr. Robin
son, Locoioco) her delegate i'll Congress,
By minority of so.
And yet in 1910, DelawoIc elected
Antl-Locoloco electors by majority OF
more than IA thousand.
GEoRGIA, in 1888, elected Mcdonald
| (LocoIoco) for Governor, by majority
Of 37j.
Butin 1910. Georgia gave good round
maj GRITTY for the Anli>Locoloco candidate
for President
OHIO, in the wear 1888, gave to Shan
! n"n QLocoioco) for Governor, majority
Of 1929.
Yet in 1910 OH, gave the An.i-Loco-
loco electoral tick neat little majority
Of TWENTY THREE THOUSAND
MARYLAND, i'll 1888, gave to Grason,
the l.ocofoco candidate for Governor, a
majority of 2.j9.
lelin 1910, this same Mary land gave
a majority for the Anli-Locoioco electoral
ticket of l77G.
In 1889, the State Of MASSACHUSETTS,
elected Marcus Merton, the Locofoco
candidate for Governor, by majority of
one.
Yet in 1910. good old Massachusetts
gave to the Anti-Locoroco electoral ticket
a majority of 20,93O.
In 1898, New JERSEY returned to
| Congress Il Locnicco delegation, claiming
Il majoli'y of G6-I'his claim was not al
lowed, but the Wing rc0l majority was
less than that
And yet in 1910, New Jersey gave
the Wing electoral ticket a majority OF
G3l7.
MAINE, in the year 1898, gave to Fair
field, the Locofoco candidate for Govcr-
nor, ma jori,y of 1898.
Bulin 1910, Maine gave majority for
the Wing electoral ticket of all.
McmGAv. in 1888, elected Stevens T..
Mason, the Locoloco candidate for Gov
ernor, and the rest Of the Locoloco State
ticket
Yet Michigan, in 1910, gave for the
Wing electoral ticket majority Of 1902,
There was no election in Tennessee, in
1883 But in 1887, the Locos carried
their ticket by 1880 and in 1899, they
carried Polk Locoloco) by a majority OF
5000.
Yet in 1910, the Wings elected their
electoral ticket by majority of r.
l02.
We take no notice of those States which
went for the Wings in 1888, and also at
the Presidential election, in 1910. such as
North Carolina, Indiana, Kentucky,
Louisiana, Rhode Island, Connccticui,and
New York, though every one of these
States gave majority for the Wing cleo
toral ticket, in 1910, vastly superior to
that which they gave foI State officers in
1888; and that increase of majority goes
TO strengthen the confidence OF the wings,
that in lSll, the same results will be
found.
1t is due to tho editor of the Pcnnsvlva-
MAN to say, that the philosophy and pa
lience with which he credits us, at the
present moment, are greatly owing tc Ills
admirable example i'll lSlO-an example
which we are sure he will again give in

Mr.. MILLER, the end OF the world pro-

thousand years. A person offered him
! $4,000 for the farm, aud not to take pcs
session TIL after 1913; the prudent pro-
