THE VICTORY IN CONNECTICUT.
Most nobly have the Wings of Connecticut ac-
quilted themselves. The heaviest vote ever cast
was that on the LIST instant, and the Wings have
come nearly up to their vote in lS40-liarrison
having received 3l,G0l, while the full vote for Bald.
win now will exceed 10000. With the exception
of the fact that majorities only are given in few
towns, the result is as follows;
Baldwin, wing, 29,556
CIoveland lnco 2S396
Scattering, mostly Sd party,) 1909
Baldwin lacks $50 of choice. Last year Ceve-
land lacked % of an election and had plurality
of 1926 over Baldwin. Baldwin's plurality is now
1l60-Whig gain 1855. The scattering (prnci-
pay third party votes last year were l03l-this
year 1909; probably the full returns will make this
years scattering votes just about equal to the last

THE HOUSE.
Wings 98--locos Il; wing majority 81. Last
year the locos had 30 majority. Thirteen mem
bers are yet to be elected this year, but cannot
change the result 1t is probable that the Wing
candidate for Lieutenant Governor has been cleo
ted by the people; but that matters little, as the
Legislature can easily settle that matter One U.
s. Senator is certainly to be elected by this Legis
laturc, and will Of course be Wing. Mr.. Niles
is as yet incompetent, and his place it may possibly
be necessary to fill
Wings of Vcrnont-here is an example foryou
With greater odds against them than you haze to
contend with--with the same great principles and
measures to cheer them on to Jealous action that
should impel you to faithfulncss, -thc Wings of
Connecticut have done their duty and achieved
their victory. Let us say to the Green Mountain
Wings that if they will stand side by side with
their gallant brethren of Connecticut they must
catch the same spirit, kinde up the same zeal,
make the same sacrifices; they must take to the
field early, and labor in it till the ides of Novem
Der shall show the rich fruits in goody harvest
of honest, patriotic Wing votes.
NEW YORK.
In the counties of Duchess, Greene, Ulster, Or.
ange, and Rensselaer,, the recent elections for SUI
perysors have showed gratifying increase Of the
Wing strength. Hudson (long the residence of
Mr. Van Buren, is Wing by 50 majorty-last year
loco by 25. Poughkeepse gave 1877 wing MAORI
ty--last Year so. Saugerties is 1856 Whg-last
fall Sc loco. These are specimens We think
there is little doubt now that the Wings have car
ried the Empire State itself in The spring elections

are as follows:

District to serve out the fag end of the Twenty
Eighth Congress- This District has generally been
considered Loco Foco by from 1900 to 1900 ma
jority. The vote is much larger than at the last
trial, and considering all circumstances, is highly
honorable to our Wing friends in that section of
the State.-kennejec Jgurnai.
