THE ELECTIONS.

Inc democratic victory in Ohio is complete
Allen is elected governor by over 800 majority
and the democrats have majority OF 10 on
l. joint ballot in the legislature, thus insurina
the reelection of Thurman to the senate
The democrats admit that what they Lost Nv
he Allen county movement they more than
made up by aid from the an,imonopoli.t
and free trade accessions from the republicon
party.
In Iowa the official returns from cvery
additional county received cut down Carmen
ter's majority. The latest count reduces If,
below 5000, and the full count may reduce i,
to 1000. Nothing but Carpenters vigorous
campaign and stout anti-monopoly protesta
lions on the stump saved him from a Water
loo defeat. In the legislature in spite Of tbr
large majority Of republicans in the senate
holding over, the anti.monopolists, and thai,
means anti.republcans, have a small majority
on joint ballot. 1t would take more than
Durants $4,000 to buy Uarlan's election to
the senate of that legislature.
In California, at the judicial election on
the l4th, the independents" or new party, or
antimonopolists elected their candidate by
5000 majority.
In Pennsylvania though very tame fight
was made, the republicans are really beaten
outside of Philadelphia, while it is well
known on a fair poll political parties in
Philadelphia are about evenly balanced. The
villanous special election law" passed by a
corrupt Legislature for tia. city, leaves the

| Hon. c. w W. Willard, member Of congress
from Vermont is disguised with the La Sale
County Republican Convention for denounc'
ing all the salary grabbers except the Presi'
dent. Mr. Willard voted against the grab
himself and refused TO accept the back pay,
but he knows all about how that steal was en-.
ginecred through congress, and he is right
cously indignant that the La Sale county COR
Massachusetts, republicans should play the
lickspitlc in the matter. In II published let.
ter he says:
The President favored the bill before il
passed either house, and personally expressed
to members desire To have his own salary
increased; and the selfish interests of mem
bers in increasing their own pay was only
one Of the deYICeS by which the President
salary was raised in other words il pulled
that increase through, and the whole measure
had favor al the Whit" House on that nc
count.
Mr. Willard then shows that the increase
of the Presidents salary for which he so in
deccntly imporuned congress, was wholly
unnecessary, since the eXtravagant sum Of
$1,000 had been appropriated for the cXpcn.
SEES OF the Executive Mansion for the current
year, sum the larger portion Of which is Il

more than ordinary interest 1t is made up
of produce dealers, shippers and general
commercial men from all parts of the coun
try, including the British Provinces, and is
handling such problems as the transportation,
tariff and railroad monopoly questions with
vigor and far-sccing intelligence that we
should look Cor in vain in any other body of
men. The proceedings thus far have consist
ed mainly of speech making, but when the re.
suit Of the investigations and deliberations OF
the convention become embodied in rcsolu-
tons and possibly an address TO the country,
oc look for something like more than or
dinarily intelligent and practical solution of
many Of the transportation and financial
problems that are now puzzling the nation.
