THE TIDAL LwAVESTILL ROLLING

The specia! election for State Senator
/ to fiji the vacancy occaSiOncd by the
death of General \. J. PANNELL, oc-
Cured yesterday that being the day ap-
| pointed for the purpose by the Governor,
As is well known, ALFRED CALDWELL,
Esd, was the nominee Of the Democratic
party of the county, which nomination
was promptly ratified by the other coun-
tie, of the district. Brooke and Hancock.
Captain ANDREW WILSON announced
himself as AN independent candidate for
the same position, and at u regular meet
ing of the Republican party received the
endorsement Of that party.
This was the condition of affairs, and,
as is equally well known, the REGISTER
supported cordially the regular nominee,
shiIe the Republican papers OF the city,
unanimously gave their support to tine
opposition candidate, claiming that the
nominee Of the party was youthful and
inexperienced, while their candidate was
an old experienced Legislator, and one
who eNcelcd in the mysteries of manipu-
lation. The result Is that the nominee of
the party has been triumphantly elected
by large majority. A. far aS We
have heard the figures reach
To- three hundred and
| hfty.six in this county; (which will no
doubt be increased when further returns
come inl Brooke county, it is estimated,
will give him at least one hundred major-
ity, and, Judging from what we have
heard from Hancock, he will also carry
that county. We can therefore safely
estimate his majority in the district at
over 500, considerably more than that by
which General PANNELL carried it
last FALL
Now we rejoice at the victory for the
following reasons:
First. Mr.. CALDWELL having ap-
peared before the people us the nominee
of the Democratic party, in him, that
party has achieved signal victory.
Second. Inasmuch MS his opponent
WAS a boiling Democrat, the fiat has gone
forth and is established, that boilers have
no hope outside their party IN the future.
Third. That this being so, the party
will be united hencetorth, and the next
time we have fight, it will be an open
and above. board one-Radlcal vs., Demo
crat.
Fourth. Because this victory will con-
vince our Democratic neighbors in Ohio
on the eve of their election, that the
tidal wave is not yet stayed.
Fifth-That an honest, outspoken de-
fcnse Of candidate will make its im-
press felt even though the fight is
against odds
And h,,t but not least by any
means, because it pats our party in
good trim for the important National,
State and county contest next year.
We then propose to close the chasm
which has heretofore divided the Democ.
racy of Ohio county. We propose that
the party shall 10 longer be manipulated
like clay in the hands Of the potter. by its
enemies, rs it has been in thepast. We
will now Join hands and march hence
| lnrth tn still more glorIous victories.
