TIE KEYSTONE STATE.

With the change in her elections
from October to November, Pennsyl
vania must lose her standing as the
keystone State. In Presidential cam
paigns heretofore, her October election
set the current, and whichever way
Pennsylvania went, so would 60 the in
different who care only to be with the
crowd, and the rif-raf and trimmers
who are always anxious to get on the
winning side. Therefore the carrying
Of that State in October has been re-
garded by both parties as a sine qua non
of success in the Presidential election
following. This fact has had much to
do with the growth of the protective"
system, neither party daring to speak
out openly against that well known
hobby of the Pennsylvanians. Here
after we may expect better things.
Ohio still elects in October, and viii
fall heir to the prestige of her neighbOr
to the East, but Ohio is so closely d.
vided on the tariff question that both
parties will hereafter venture as far as
revenue reform if not free trade"
and the incubus of manufacturing
monopoies will be lifted from the
shoulders of the producing classes.
