Democratic Victories.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, October 14.-Suffi-
cient returns have been received to
show beyond doubt that the State has
gone Democratic by from 1000 to TO-
600 maj. The Democratic State Exc
cutive Committee are positive of the
election of the following Democratic
Congressman: Banning, First District;
Taylor, Second; Mcmahon, Fourth;
Rice, Fifth; Hurd, Sixth; Neal, Sew
enth Vance, Eleventh; Walling, twelfth;
Southland, Thirteenth; Cowan, Four
teenth; Payne, Twentieth. They also
claim the probable election of Wilson
in the Seventh District, Appleton in the
Ninth and Seney in tho Tenth. The
Republicans claim the election of Smith
in the Third, Lawrence in the Eight,
Foster In the Tenth, Van Voorhees, in
the Fifteenth, Danford in the Sixteenth,
Monroe in the Eighteenth and Garfield
in the Nineteenth. If the Democratic
claims are sustained by official returns
the Democrats have gained seven Con-
gresham from Ohio. The result ex-
ceeds the most sanguine Democratic ex-
pectations.

from IS precincts show that the Demo-
Gratis have gained 67S. The Republi-
can Central Committee concede the

The Construction of the New Resei
VOir.

VOkr.
The Council voted, on Thursday night, not to
have any part of the work of constructing the
new reservoir done by contract. Mr.. VIM. NJ
Candy, who had been examining into the expe-
rience Of other citi es, i'll doing similar work
stated his conclusions that while the placing OF
the excavated earth on the face of the embank-
ment should be done by the day, under the
supervision of the city authorities, there
was no reason why the removal OF the
top soil, and the general excavation
should not be done by contract, the contractors
to deliver the earth in such places and in such
quantities as the city should require. He pro-
posed an amendment to the ordinance, consis-
tent with these facts, but Mr.. Febiger, by par
liamentary manGuyre, prevented the amend
ment from being even voted upon, and the pro-
gramme OF doing the whole work by the day
was persistently adhered t..
Failing in the effort to have the ordinance
amended and in his further proposition that the
basin should be built under the superintendent
Of committee Of non-partisan citizens, chosen
by the Couucil-a very judicous and sensible
propositon-Mr. Candy, with other Republican
menibers who heye not favor the abrogation
of the contract system, voted finally for the Or
dinance. They were aware that the
construction of the reservoir will give
work to many Of our unemployed people, helping
them and helping to revive business, and after
having in vain tried to amend the manner of cor.
ducting the work, they felt that their plain duty
lay in the service of the community, doirg the
best thing possible under the circumstances. II
our judgment. they did right, and Mr.. Candy es
pecially, for the resolute and persistent effort
he has made to protect the interests Of the ia:
payers, and for his appreciation Of the fact that
the work cannot be done in the best way,
ought to go on in the best way attanable, de
serves the thanks Of the community, and tri
umphant endorsement at the hands Of the voter
of the Ward which he has 70 faithfully and hon
orably represented.

POLITICS AND MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS.

We remarked the fact the other day, that there
is an increasing public sentiment in favor OF
taking State and National politics out of munici-
pal affairs, putting each on it's proper founda-
tion, and electing local and municipal officers,
not upon the basis of their opinions concerning
San Domingo or the Indian Question, but with
reference solely to the fitness ability, and hon
esty which they will bring to the conduct of city
affairs. This feeling, we say, is increasing. 1t
is getting stronger, day by day, and we copy
from the St Louis Democrat, the leading Repub-
lican newspaper of Missouri, this concise state
ment Of the case:-
whenever the people insist upon absolute
separation of national from State issues, and
both State and Congressional from county or city
questions, and begin to administer each branch
of their government with exclusive reference 70
its efficiency and purity, great reforms Will
speedily follow"
This is the opinion OF the Republicans of st.
Louis, and it is sample of opinions held by
many good citizens of Wilmington. They have
come to their conclusions slowly, and only by
stress of circumstances, but those conclusions,
honestly arrived at, and sincerely held, must be
respected. We are certain that it would be
greatly to the advantage of our candidates for
Governor and Congressman if they were in nc
wise ass sociated in the public mind with the mum
icipal government of Wilmington, and we shall
insist that the question of their election and the
success of our excellent platform Of State prin
oiples shall not be entangled in local difference
as to the propriety of electing Jones or Brown
to the City Council. The two things do not
in the Judgment of hundreds of Republican vot'
ers, belong together. and it will bs a grave poll
tical error to insist that they shall. Whateve
the taxpayers of the city see fit to do at the ap
preaching election for municipal officers will b.
their own atfair-a purely local business matter
and whether it result in the choice of one o.
another person to be Assessor, Collector, O
Councilman, the State campaign will go on, OIL
its own basis, and affected by its own prope
considerations. Jump and Lohand stand o
their own merits and the selection of local off
GERS here is a matter from which they shoul
desire to be entirely divorced.

The Republican Nominations To-day

There is an unusual and most singular lack of
publicity given to the Republican nomination
elections for members of Council. Several Of
them take place this afternoon, including those
in the First. Fourth, Sixth, Seventh, Ninth, and
Tenth Wards but no official notice, whatever, 10
far as we can discover, has been given of any
except that in the Seventh, which Mr.. Stotsen-
burg has duly advertised in both the Republican
papers Of the city, This omission to give public
notice is inexplcable. Why is it Heretofore
ample notice of all such such nominations las
