TIE New York Journal of Commerce says
that Tuesdays election did not result in any

would be little to hope for 1t was not the Re-
publican organization which reversed or re-
duced old opposition maj critics. 10 New \ urk
there was not solitary party question before
the people. The two State platforms agreed
90 all essential points. They both contained
the latest popular issues of hard money and
administrative reform. Third term was as
pointedly condemned by one convention as by
the other. There was really nothing iu either
platform except the uame which the candidates
Of the opposing party might not have accept
ed" We trust the result in Is may prove
that there was no party triumph, but to our
way of thinking it looks as though the admin
istraton was strcng theniug its hold, while the
money power of the East is making itself felt
more and more, and, Notwithstanding the co.,
demDation of the third term" scheme by the
leading politicians and presses Of the Radical
party, all the Indications tend that way. May
the evil be averted, but that to that complexion
it will come at last seems, at present, not i'm
probable.
