saws: "The State Of Kentucky does not

to buying one. The question of hosting
the Stars and Stripes, which was debated
in the Senate yesterday turned principally
on the point OF economy. We are sure
that if the matter were properly brought

Dodge County.

Our latest advices from Dodge
county is to the effect that the Peo-
pies County Ticket, including Nc
Fetridge for Senator, is elected.
This is the result of a gallant fight
that has been made by the honest
taxpayers of the county against one
of the worst rings that ever existed
in this state, and the glory is shared
In by honest Democrats and Repub-
Hcans alike. The 9Th and 9th
wards of this city fall in for share
of this gratifying achievement
which is sure to bear good fruit to
the people of Dodge County re-
CARELESS of party or faction. The
four assemblymen elected in Dodge
county are democratic. The maj
ority for VIM. Fleming, regular
democratic nominee for assembly,
man in the 1st (EmmeN District, is
KS. Bragg's majority for Con-
gress in the county is 1900 against
3o73 two years ago.

Results Abroad.

The election in other states than
Wisconsin developed the same fact
Us in our own state-namely, that
where the issue was made squarely
IN favor of honesty in finance as
we'll as in government, there have
been large Republican gains. Mas
sachusetts has buried Butler and
his infamous teac Kings under a ma
Iority of probably 10000 votes. In
New York Tammany is over
whelmingly defeated. Pennsylva-
MIA is Republican by a good fig.
ure. Minnesota holds the record
her admirable platform warranted.
Connecticut and New Hampshire
give excellent showing for the Re
pubIicans. The Republicans have
made considerable congressional
gains, notably in the States of New
York, Massachusetts,, Connecticut
New Hampshire, Alabama, Hi
nois, New Jersey and Maryland.
The heaviest showing ofthe Nation
al vote was in Michigan. but it was
sufficient there to detract from a
complete Republican victory. 1t
would appear at this honr, 2 A. M,
Sif the Republicans would in
crease their membership in tn G
House by probably twenty, and
make some gains, also, in the Sen.
rfe.-Sentinel.

Yesterday in Wisconsin.

The result of yesterdays election
is especially gratifying to the Re
publicans Of Milwaukee, who have
done better work chan they ever
did beforehand their work before
has saved the State. The entire
county ticket of the Republicans
has been elected-a thing unpre-
cedented in the history of the city
At this late hour, The Sentinel
can only state the fact, leaving the
comments upon it for another time.
The figures are given in full else
where AS to the result on Con
gresham, but little can be said, the
facts are given elsewhere. There
IS still hope of Judge Frisby's
election. The Germans of Mil
waukee County were not infuenc-
ed by Deuster's Know-Nothing
appeal and The Sentinel desires to
award them the high credit they
deserve. The county gives Frisby
:emajority of 1873. The defeat of
Mfr. McLaren is to be lamented-
he will be the next mayor of Mil

THE Jefferson Banner and the
Watertown Democrat have all along
been claiming that vote in favor
of Phillips, Ostrander and Bullock
was vote in favor of E. w. Keyes
for Z. S. Senator. Nobody has
denied it. AS the people have
voted so largely in favor of these
gentlemen, the only inference to be
drawn is that they are favorable to
Keyes and that, taking the Banner
and the Democrat at their word, our
senator and members elect are fairly
interested to vote for Reyes. Do
the Banner and the Democrat SO
understand it?
