Daily national Republican. (Washington City [D.C.]) 1870-1872, 1872-11-07

In no place will the result Of Tuesdays
elections be- more manifest than In the House
Of Representatives Of the Forty-third Con-
gress. The Democratic minority will be cut
down to less than one-thlrd; the Republicans
who went into the Liberal movement will be
weeded out, while the Republican side of the
body will present solid front such as 1t has
not presented since the close of the war.
Among the Liberal leaders who will have
no place there are Blair, Of Michigan, the
chairman Of the Committee on Claims, who
acted as counsel for Mr.. Chas. A. Dana In
the Robson Investigation. Blair did not run
for Congress, preferring instead the guber-
Material nomination in Michigan, but he has
been beaten for that by an overwhelming
majority. FarnsWorth failed OF renomi-
nation In his district In Illinois, and Ia sue
ceeded by General Stephen A. HulburL
ist-class Republican and man of great
ability and the highest integrity. He was
q gallant officer during the late war, and
GcceptAbly filed the position Of Minister at
Bogota. N. G. Kerr, one Of the leaders of
the Democratic party, was defeated in the
October election In Indiana; also, Daniel W.
voorhees,. Massachusetts has given Mr..
Banks leave TO remain at home, which will
make vacancy In the craftsmanship of the
Foreign Affairs Commit &c next March, II.
indeed, we shall not h ave a vacancy there In
December. Mr.. Bingham failed of renomI-
nation by barely one majority. He will he
missed In the House, but there Ia little doubt
that the country will not lose his services
unless he desires to retire to private life.
Messrs. Peters and Ly OF Maine, who
declined to be candidates for denomination
and re- election, will also be out. Mr.. Worth
lngton Q. Smith, OF Vermont, will be great
loss TO the Republican side of the House.
He was q good worker In committee, a man
OF large experience aud the highest patriot
ism. In Mr.. Halsey, Of New Jersey, the Re.
publlcans also lose valuable and efficient
member.
Mr.. Van Trump and Mr.. Morgan will be
missed by the Democracy and Shellabarger
by the Republicans. NJ this writing we have
received no definite news from Mr.. Beck's
district in Kentucky, which Is very close.
Altogether the Democrats suffer severely,
while the Liberal Republicans have been one
and all thrown out.
In the Senate there will be several changes.
Mr.. COlfaX will. OF course, give place to Mr.,
| Wilson; Mr.. Harlan will be succeeded by Mr..
Allison; Mr.. Sargent will take the place Of
Mr.. Cole; Mr. Trumbull's term expires on the
4th Of next March, aud II Is We ry probable
that he will be defeated, unless the minority
system OF voting should save him. THERE'S
no doubt that Mr.. Morton will be reelected
In Indiana and that Senator Cameron will
be his own successor Ia Pennsylvania II he
shall desire IL. New York has 1t In her power
to send US back Mr.. COnkling and we have
no doubt that she will continue In office
= representative so able and so eloquent
as he Ia. There Is q good deal of wire
pulling aud maneuyerlng In Masac hu-
sets as 10 who shall succeed Mr.. Wilson.
DR.. LOrinE, Mr.. Boutwell, and Mr.. Dawes are
said to bs endeaVOrlng 10 obtain the place,
aud the respective friends Of the three are
earnestly at work for their fayorite. All of
them are sound Republicans and men OF the
highest ability and integrity. General Butler
Is said to favor Mr.. LOring 20 as to get him
out Of the way for the Goyemorship, and thus
pave the way for himself to the Senate.
However all these wars OF the political
ohleftAins In the various States may come
out there can be no doubt that the Republl-
can party Is to-day stronger than ever 1t was.
Il controls In the national councils and in
more than three-fourihs Of the States. 1t Is
entire master OF the situation.
