become i significant fact in the political his
tory ,a this Republic Each of these three
grcat csiltrai StAtck lids given most decided
and emphatic expression in favor of Republi-
can principles In each of them, all of the
elements Of opposition to US united to defeat
our ticket, but the free laboring masses came
to our rescue. In Ohio, the struggle was des-
perate, but our triumph is complete. We
have elected our State ticket by at least tsrenty
thousand majority. We have again proclaim
ed to the world that we are true to the princi-
Piles of our Fathers. and that, standing on
soil dedicated to freedom, we do not cease to
proclaim our allegiance to the doctrines of the
Jefersouian Ordihsfice of 1887, and our re-
probation of the traitors that would, in this
hour of trial. desert the cause of free labor, and
its attendant fee Institutions. In Peensylva-
MIA, our victory has Been stiIl fnote decided
and important. With a majority Of 155 900
against US Id that State in 1856, we now have
the election of Mr.. Curtin, our candidate for
Governor, by at least 10000 majority. This
fact becomes still more significant when we
know that all the factions of the opposition !;
Douglas, Breckenridge, and Bell, united upon
Mr.. Foster, his opponent. We have triumph
ed over the combined foe. We have elected
taoent y-one of the twenty FIVE members Of Con-
gress. We have elected Legislative strongly
Republicdff ii, b6th biraH6hes, which secures Us
the gain of a United States Senator. in the
place of Mr.. Bigler. In Indiana our triumph
Has been equally decisive and important In
1856, the majority against Us in that State
was 1900. Now, we have s1sept it in an
open, fair issue between the Republicans, and
all their opponents united upon one State
ticket, by at least 10 900 majority. We have
elected eiSH Of the eleven members of Con-
gress: We have elected Legislature decided.
y Republican in both branches, which secures
the gain of q United States Senator in the
place of DIR. Fitch. This victory is almost
without parallel in our history. Added to
these splendid triumphs we have the recollec-
ton of the recent elections in Maine, and Yer
mont to cheer rs on to certain victory. In
Maine, the most persistent efferts were made
to break our column, but to no avail. The
Republican State ticket was elected by about
taOenty thousand majority, and euery one finer
six members Of Congfess are Republicans. In
Vermont; fhe Repabiicsn State ticket was
elected BY tscsTst y.one thousand majority, and
her members of Congress are all Republicans.
Fhe Presidential election is substantially de-
cided by these magnificent results. Each Of
these States will cast their electoral vote for
LINCOLN AND HAsfi.rE by many thousatras Of
increased majority in November. The gains
of the States Of Pennsylvania and Indiana, add
ed to the States that cast their votes for Ere
mont in 1855, will give Lincoln more than
enough votes To- elect him President. We
shall lose none' thai were with us in 1886, and
we shall also kaee With us New Jersey and
Illinois, which were tIien against us, and we
shall have Minnesota, which has since come in
to the Union. We have a rapidly growing
Republican Party in each of the border Slave
States of Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Ken
taeky, and Missouri and we shall hare oSenl,
us We hbw have secret friehtls in every South
ern State, so soon as We can dispel the illusions
of prejudice and fanaticism, and establish free
speech, and free press on the basis of Con-
stitutional rights.
In this hour of our triumph, both State and
national, while we congratulate our friends on
the prospects for the future, ws' dtaise s. re-
! 1nisd thcnr ,Eat there ale corresponding obli-

not fail to meet. Ohio liitst struggle to main

Column OF Statgs OF she will be oatstrippcd ion

they rshst be met and conquered. Our rnu5or-
