The voice Of the Democracy ef Ohio
comes to us with pleasing sound. Re
ports from fifty.two counties out Of the
eighty eight in Ohio show Democratic
gain OF 1000 votes This ratio will
elect Mr.. Allen easily, The Legislature
will have Democratic majority OF nino-
teen on joint ballot, with working ma
jority in both branches The slsction oi
William Allen by small majority is con
Columbus. It will hardly bo possible for
the Republicans devoted to addition and
silence in footing up election returns to
permanently count Mr.. Allen out Of the
Govern orship. Tor tho Legislative jury
which will assemble next winter will he
disposed to scrutinze their system OF
vote keeping somewhat closely. We
therefore pass the word along the line
this morning that there has beeh a glori.
ous Democratic victory in Ohio. 1t 10

Our battle in Ohio has been the only
election this fall which has commanded
tho attention Of tho whole country. II
has been made by our opponents Of the
two classes named above fight for the
lifo and the pornanence Of the Demo
cratic party. Immediately upon the
nomination of our State ticket, which
was the last in the field, aud straight
ticket, tho leaders OF the Republican
press and party said that if VIC succeeded
in its election nothing but superhumsn
effort on the part Of the Republican par
ty could prevent our success in the next
Presidential election. We do not diss.
gree with that statement Of tho case and
to the end OF establishing its truth by the
fact, let us. on tho sunny side Of y victo-
ry for which many Of VS. dared not hope,
simply pause, like Paul attho Three Tav.

have been killing larger game than Noyes
in this election. We have been building,
or repairing, for the future A party
whose beginning was foolishness and
whose end is nothinsncss has been taught
a useful lesson. The questions Of the
future. economic questions, the relations
between monopolies and people. nrc
questions on which the Democratic party
alone can and will promote the cause OF
the people There are questions which
the last two weeks have lifted into prom

will remain in many thousand homes,
which will presently absorb the notice OF
the whole country. We hare con,i.ced
