90 aIiects Of the october strug

THE oljects Of the October struggle
were four in number:
1. Tn lection Of Secretary Of State
iu ea.n.
:. The sieyjiJa Of Governor in Indi-
Gua.
3. The election OF Congressional Rep
re@en nt5tiygS IN Ohio.
/. The election Of Congressional Rep
re-entatives in Indiana.
The Republicans started out in the
fight with plurality Of 5,54i in Ohio,
The Democrats started out in the fight
with II plurality of 1882 in Indiana
and with I3 to : Congressman in Ohio;
and with s to > Congressmen in Indi'
ana.
Now let US see exactly what has been
done:
1. The Secretary Estate in Ohio was
elected by the Republicans by increas-
ed majority.
;. The Governor of Indiana was
elected by the DEMOCRATS by q very
much reduced majority.
3. The Congressional representation
.Of Ohio now stands Z Republicans to Is
Democrats. In the next Congress il
will stand l. Republicans to S Demo
crat@-R Republican gain 81 ).
t. The Congressional representation
of Indiana now stands Republicans to
s Democrats. In the next Congress il
viii stand 9 Republicans to 4 Demo
era is-Repubiican gain Of 4.
Three out Of the four objects The two
parties set out TO win, the Republicans
won. And it cameso near winning the
fourth that another effort will, in al
probability, be successful.
The Republican majority in Ohio la:
been decreased. The Democratic ma
jorltv in Indiana has been decreased
In both States there have been VERY
large Republican gains in Congress
men.
The result is in a very high degre,
cheering to the Republicans. The soil
tary crumb of comfort the Democrat
can extract from the fight Is the electiol
Of Blue Jeans by very meagre major
ity. Graveyard wbistling will not con
ceal their diSlnay.-Cfacinnati Iimes.
