INDIANAA AID VICTORY.

The New York Tribune Of Oct. 10th,
says-writing before the October cleo
tons. we said: IF our friends carry
either one of the three States we shall
have the better chance of success In
November. The other side must carry
all three to give them the better pros
pect.
We haze carried one of them, and
the one most desperately contested. We
have overthrown the ablest OF the cabai
that led the President to his ruln-we
would also say the most INSCRIPTIONS,
if, in this hour of Pennsylvania shame,
we could forget Simon Cameron. Ihom-
90 A. Hendricks is elected Governor OF
Indiana.
We have no desire to underrate the
gravity of the situation. We have been
counted out in Pennsylvania, which we
should have carried We could easily
have dispensed with its votes in the
Electoral College; but the moral effect
of the loss is depressing, to a greater
extent than the number of electoral
votes would indicate. Thework lsmade
harder for US in New York, harder for
our brethren in all the States We mean
to carry. by the triumph Of Camerons
money, in the success OF the Penltentla-
ry candidate. From this day till the
first Tuesday of November, we shall
have upon us steady, continuousstrsln.
But we shall win Our Liberal Re
publicans did well in Pennsylvania In
parts of Ohio they won signal victory,
while the Grant majority in the State Is
handsomely reduced. In Indiana the
Liberal and Democratic victory has
been won in the face Of such lavish ct
forts to kill the free suff,rages OF State
by importation and midnight cypherlng
as even Morton never before attempted,
nor neither he nor anybody can again
achieve.
And now we are in the open field !
1t is no longer possible to concentrates
Cabinet, a Treasury, all the patronage
and all the money of the National Ad-
ministration on two OF the States. Thlr-
ty-seyen States cannot be gagged in a
night like North Carolina and Pennsyl-
vania, or oYerpowered by sheer weight
like Maine. On the broader field the
contest assumes fairer aspect; apd
Indiana gives us the omen OF victory.
Under her inspiration the splendid Lib
eral Republican and Democratic organi-
cation in Illinois declare they can win;
and, knowing their work and their
power, we believe them. Consider once
more the list of States as it may fairly
be placed TO-DAY, in the light of the
elections within week in Georgia, Con-
necticut and Indiana
