A Republican Majority in the Sen
ate and House.
CINCINNATI, Oct. IS, 1875.

1876
has been fought on purely artificial grounds the ina
tionsts having secured the Convention and shaped
the policy Of the party. The hard money demo-
Gratis yielded to expediency and voted the ticket
in order TO secure party victory On the other hand
the republicans while taking advantage OF the oppor-
tunity offered by their opponents the financial
question, endeavored to create the school
question by shaking the Gegan bill in the faces of the
people as menace. Some votes were gained on this
account but far this county is concerned the
suit has not been commensurate.
The people OF this county have for many years been
an uncertain quantity in politics, and good and
wise measures have been necessary to their sup
pendence has gradually been extending itself
throughout the State until the people OF all the
ties have to assert themselves rather owning
the party that shall administer their State affairs than
being owned and directed election day by any body
of politicians that may meet to fix ticket for them
BETTER CLASS OF DEMOCRATS
although chagrined at the result feel that needed
buke has been administered to their less judcious
brethren and that the party will be strengthened for
the great national struggle in 1875 Thoughtful republ
cans feel that IL is
NOT PARTY VICTORY,
and II their counsel prevails and party will not jump in
and either claim attempt TO lay hands the spos
The party will rather address itself to retaining the
ground gained by keeping in the ranks the aeces
sons.
All this, however looks like the counting of chickens
before they hatched for up to this hour of half
past eleven not without anxiety lest tho antci
pated result may be materially changed.
THE Stair CLAIMED FOR ALLEN.
The Enquirer office claimed the State for Allen to-
night and procession with music ana transparencies
paraded the streets in honor OF the event. Cynics OF
republican persuasion regarded 1t simply as gam
bling dodge.
