More OF tho Recent Elections.

literally swept this State clean of the Shan
Democracy. In the LIST, or Eastern Congress
sional District, Robinson, american epub-
lican) has S,797 votes Davis, Republican,
,422; and Arnold, Democrat, 1852. In the
I'd or Western District, Brayton, Republican,
had 1886 votes to 700 cast for Antony, the
Democratic candidate. Sham Democracy is
pretty well killed out in s'Little Rhody."-
There is no one elected in the first district, a
peculiar law existing in that State, by which
a majority Of all the votes cast for everybody
is required for choice; so there must be
another trial. The Republican State Ticket
is chosen, all but two. Thomas G. Turner
is elected Governor; John r. Baraett, Sec
rotary of State; and Jerome B. Kimbah, At
torney General. Three candidates were run
for Lieutenant Governor and General Treasu-
rer; and neither having a majority over all
others, another trial must be had. The Leg
islature is against the Democrats by an over
whelming majority. In poll of 1O, 400 votes,
the Democrats are beaten by 5000 majority
Rhode Island, we suspect, may be called a
certain State for the Republicans at the next
Presidential electionl
WISCONSIN ALL RIGuT.-The Milwaukee
Sentinel of the 9th, gives us the cheering as
surance that Byron Paine, the Republican
candidate for Supreme Judge, is certainly
elected over W. P. Lynde, Democrat, by
nearly, if not quite, 10000 majority Wis
consin is sound to the core. She has main
tanned the Jefferson principle of State indie
pendence Of partizan U. S. Supreme Court.
She persists in her reputation of the Fugitive
Slave law. In Milwaukee, Lynde's residence,
where his great wealth gave him power, the
principle involved in the contest caused him
to run 800 behind the Democratic candidate
for Mayor. In Dane County alone, in which
is Madison the Capital, the Republican gain
is 500 since last fall. As far as heard from
the vote stands, for Paine, Is, $40; for Lynde,
1904. We think, on the whole, Wisconsin is
also safe for the Republican Presidential NOM
nee in 1860.
The FREE LABOR TRIUMPH IN ST.. LOUIS
The official vote on Mayor is as follows: Fill
ley, Republican, 1927; Bogy, Democrat,
1866; Wyman, Know Nothing, 1925. Re-
publican majority, 2sl1! The Republicans
carried their Ward officers in every Ward but
one. The officers elected were chosen upon
the issue of emancipating Missouri from Slave
Labor. This result shows also strikingly the
frauds of last August to defeat Frank Blair.
HE REPUBLICAN, VICTORY IN CINcINNArI-
The Republican majority in Cincinnati is con-
siderably heavier than the telegraph dispatch
stated. The Commercial says the majority
for Mr.. Bishop, for Mayor, is about fifteen
hundred. A majority of Republican Alder
men are elected. The vote was the heaviest
ever cast at Spring election, and the Repub-
lican triumph in that old Democratic strong
hold has been splendidly achieved. The three
great cities of the West-Chicago, St. Louis,
and Cincinnati firmly fixed in the Re-
publican faith, and radiate the principles of
the party over the great West.
The ELECTION IN ToLEDo.-At the munich
pal election in Toledo, Ohio, the Administra-
ton candidate for Mayor was elected; the
Douglas Democracy elected their candidate
for City Marshal, and also one of the Trus-
tees; the Republicans carried the remaining
Offices, being fourteen in all, to three carried
by the Democratic factions. This cleo
ton was the occasion of a fierce battle
between the Douglas and Buchanan wings of
the Democracy, attended by the usual mani
festations of affection, to-wit: bowie knives
aud six-shooters. The ardor of Gen. Steed-
man, the printer to the National House of
Representatives and the Douglas file leader in
Ohio, led him to draw bowie-knife and call
for the "heart's blood' of his political adver.

TIE CONNECTICUT ELECTION. Returns from
all the towns in the State show that 1919 Re-
publicans are elected Representatives, and a
100 Democrats. The Republicans have elect
ed IL Senators, the Democrats 8. The re-
turns from all towns, elect Governor Buck
lngham, Republican, by $500 majority. The
congressman are all four Republicans as be-
fore stated. .T a-. -a.
This victorious result is the more important
that the battle was fought solely on political
grounds-opposition to the extension and per.
