Of Democratic gains since a.t year, with how lntlr
foundation, slight analysis Of the vote will
STOW. II is trus that the Democratic vote H.
larg than ,st year, and the Republican vote
less. But the vote a aln-t Eastman, Democrat
this year i. Jut about the same a, that ag1in.l
Stark, DsmocrIt, last, tie difference only being
that Hartman, the war D mocrl', received more
votes hi, year than Wheeler, The war Democrat
last year. The Democratic gain, then, consts 10
getting Democrats to the polls, who did not vote
last year, aud not 10 any change in politics. Be-
sides,-siuce last year, at least GO0O voters have
left the State for the var, and it is no unft esIi-
mate % say that Of these, al least 5000 would, il
allowed to, have voted against Eastman, leaving
him in minority full as large as last year.
But in figuring out Democratic victory the
votes for Col Hartman war Democrat are count
ed as Democratic, with how little propriety, the
vote for Congressman, where only Two candidates
were in the field, will show Taking the Con.
gressonaI vote as the basis-where there was no
third party to distract the attention Of VOTERS
and the Republicans have majority Of 700 in
the State, which, although less than last year. i,
by no means 80 much less az the absence Of Re
publican voters who had gone to fight for the
Union with the bayonet, bad led Us to appre-
bend. The election Of Representatives and Sena-
tors where there were also but two candidates,
proves that the votes for Hartman are to BE-
treated, not as anti war votes, but as gwen by
those who are heartily supporting the Adnini'tra-
ton in its Efforts to crush treason.
The result Of this election, although the vote
is so close, Is favorable TO the Government, and
against treason. Gilmore will be elected Gov
ernor by the Legislature, and the State orgnin-
ton cannot be used to break down or cripple the
