THE ELECTIONS.
THEIR LESSONS AND OUR DUTY.

THEIR LESSONS AND OUR Duty.
The smoke of battle has rolled away,
and we now can count the result.
1t has been one of the hardest fought
political contests known in the his
tory of the country. Every nerve
has been strung, every effort put
forth by both parties to gain victo-
ry for their cherished principles.
Speeches, huge meetings, torch light
professions, and all the machinery
known to the political world, have
been used to arouse the people to the
importance of the contest. The
Democratic party has labored night
and day, expended untold treas
ure, and scrupled at no act
to win victory in the great central
States, which, it well knew, were to
decide the Presidential election.
But, thank God, it has failed, and,
after a hard fight, the Republican
party has carried Ohio, Pennsylya-
nia, Indiana, and Nebraska, and vir.
tually decided the battle. But this
victory has been gained by hard
work, and no overwhelming MAORI
ties are rolled up, such that we may
rest from our labors, as if our work
was done.
These elections teach US how much
can be done even for an evil cause
by dint of hard work and an unscru-
pulous use of any and all means.
They also teach us, that however
just our cause may be, its success
depends on constant and continued
effort. eternal vigilance is the
price of liberty"
The struggle is not yet over. In
TIVE short weeks comes the great
contest of all, the terrible struggle
of a great battle, of which the Octo-
Der elections were the preliminary
skirmishes. Then let not a nerve be
relaxed. Keep up the fight till the
end, and we will elect the men of our
choice by an overwhelming vote of
the people. Then and not till then,
can we set down, satisfied with our
work, and assured that the principles
for which we fought so many long
and bloody years are secured for
ever.
The Democratic party is now com
pieteiy demoralized. The rank and
hle. deceived by the promises of
their leaders, expected avictory, and
now defeat leaves them cewed and
causes them to lose ali heart in the
contest.
See to it, that they do not take
courage again, and do not count on
this demoralization as an excuse to
relax yeur own efforts. We are

PEEEsYLvANIA- ..a4ss-s--
The Republicans secure the State
ticket by about 10000 majority. The
Congressional delegation viii stand
IA Republicans to 8 Democrats, a
loss of two to the Republicans. The
Legislature is more strongly Repub-
lican than last year, thus securing
the election Of Republican U. s.
Senator in place of Buckalew, Demo
crat.
Ono.
The Republican majority on the
State ticket will reach near $4,000.
Of the Congressman, the Republi-
cans have lost four-Eggleston, Glib
son, Cooper and Ashley-and have
gained one in place of Cary, making
the delegation in the next House
stand IL to 6.
INDIANA.
The vote in this State, on the State
ticket, is close, but it is settled be-
yond doubt that the Republicans
have elected their full ticket. The
majority, probably, will not exceed
1000. The congressional delega-
ton, which in the present House is
Republicans to Democrats, will
stand in the next House Z Republi.
cans to democrats. The Legisla-
ture, which has the election of U.
S. Senator in place of Hendricks, is
Republican in both houses by good
working majorities.
NEBRASKA.
This State goes Republican by
over 1000 majority, electing a Re-
publican to Congress and securing
both branches of the Legislature.
