News from Kansas.

Late returns from Kansas indicate
that Ransom, the Democratic nominee,
for Congressman ranfar behind his ticket
whilst Parrot, his Republican compel
tor leads the rest of the Free State p"
ticket. This result was caused by the
general dissatisfaction felt by many Of
the Democratic party at Ransom's NOM
ination, and their want Of confidence
in his soundncss on the principle of
popular sovereignty. There was little
trouble at the election. Mr.. Sykes, the
Democratic candidate for the Legisla-
ture in Douglas county, was violently
assaulted at the polls by a crowd of
Republicans, and some drunken slod-
icrs, instigated by Black Republican
rufiians, attacked the house Of Mr.. Dol
man, Democratic Candidate in Meme
ha Co.
Daily Iowa State Democrat. [volume] (Davenport, Iowa) 1856-1859, 1857-10-23
Now, what was the vote at the late
Gubernatorial election?
Republican Majority

Republican Majority 3ls
Now, take the difference between
552, the Republican majority in 1856,
and 3ls the majority in 1857, and the
sum of 234 remains, which is the loss
the Republicans have sustained in Scott
County in the last eleven months. The
Republicans hare lost t,co hundred and
thirty four rotes IN Scott co. IN less
than one gear! That is a rictory which
makes the conqucror mourn!
We will now accommodate the Re-
publican press with giving the returns
Of the 1prl election in this county.
The Democratic party then polled
ll0S, IL votes less than at the prcsi-
dental election in November; the
Black Republicans polled ll40, sos
votes less than At the election last ma
med. Since that time the Democracy
have gained three hundred votes that
is to say, the Democratic vote in this
county is now stronger by three ham
dred than it was ever before, whilst the
Republicans have not the strength they
had last fall by two hundred and thirty
four rotes! Does not that speak vol
umcs! Where is Kansas, bleeding
Kansas
In this very city Of Davenport, the
Republicans have lost since last fall
twenty three votes whilst the Democ-
racy have gained seventy four. In
LeClaire the Republicans gained fifty
three (all Know No,hings by the way)
the Democracy, eighty; in Princeton
the Republicans lost twenty nine, the
Democracy gained thirty one; in Lib
erty the Republicans lost twenty eight,
the Democracy gained five Buffalo
and Blue Grass united, the Republicans
lost thirty one, the Democracy gained
seventy one. We forbear to adduce
further proofs Of the Democratic gain
in Scott County. Erpede Herculem.
We have REQUIRED 70 the foregoing
facts for the purpose Of placing the
Democracy Of this county in true
light before their brethren in other
sections Of the State. We also inten.
ded to show why the Republicans do
not dare mention the presidential cleo.
ton, but insists on ringing the charge.
on their vote at an unimportant cleo.
ton which did not call the people ia
the polls. We again say that the cleo.
ton last November, and the election
last week are the only opportunities We
have had test the strength Of the Dem
ocratic and Black Republican parties
We are satisfied with gain Of thres
hundred on our side, loas Of two hun
dred and thirty four on the other side
I and moral certainty Of tho success o.
the Democracy Of this county At the
nsxt election.

County.
1t is amusing the witness the manner
in which the Gazette and other Black
Republican sheets ignore the last Pres
idential vote, and keep continual
shouting over the light and iusignif
cant vote at the last April election.
There is . reason for that Vancouver
which we will expose. The Republi-
cans have lost thousands Of voters in
this State since the Buchanan and Ere
mont campaign. and they hope by
drawing of the attention Of the people
from the vote 1t that election, which is
the only real test vote, they may con-
cesl the extent of the descrtion from
their ranks. The Apr! vote was pro-
nounced by every Republican journal
in this State no test Of the comparative
strength Of two parties, aud yet it is
now paradcd "a proof OF Republican
gain. The April vote ofthc Republicans
was nearly seventhousand less than their
vote last November. We well remem-
Der the lamentations Of the Gazette
over the fact that SO many Republicans
wouM stay at home on election day,
and then it made constant reference to
the Presidential vote. We intend now
to call the Republicans back to that
vote, conceding what they declared
last Spring--that the April election
was no test at all. 1t may be well
enough to say, however, that the Dem
ocracy had gained three hundred since
April. In our investigation we pro-
pose first to inquire what was the vote
in This County ut the presidential cleo
ton. II WAS ~ follows.

The official returns may increase or
diminish the above result.
We have no reliable returns from
Lake or Gcauga. The fastest from
Lake We find in Painsville paper of
Saturday last which says: 1--WE have
delayed our paper several days to get
the official returns, but without success.
Chase's majority will however be about
l,200.' This will give Payne gain
Of $40 instead of $40 As we now have
it, making Payne's majority 434.
Geauga is reported in the Leader as
l,477. This gives Payne 642 gain in
stead of $50 as we now have it. This
will add 262 to Payne's majority, ma.
king it 696.-Wc take Fusion authori-
ty for the figures and hope they are
true. If SO, Chase is beaten anyhow it
can be fixed.
