MORNING APPEAL.
NOVEMBER 9. 1878
THE RESULT.

Two years ago the Republicans of Nevada
made known their virtue and their strength
Money had been used so freely in the two
previous campaigns that the whisper was too
widely spoken and needed that 'The people
were spoilded with lust of gold, and that
without the free use of money the election
would 90 by default. There was very low
estimate of the qualities of the people who
comprise both parties. 1t cut both ways. 1t
meant that the Republican leaders were will
ing to debauch the voters and that the rank
and file Democracy could be bought away
from their allegiance and their principles.
The result established Two facts, First, that the
State is Republican, and Second, that the
Democracy is made of better stuff than we,
their critics, had thought. And now again is
it demonstrated that the people can be counted
Oh to move with the advancing time and tide
Of conservative progress Let no word of
unkindness be said or limited toward the Gov
ernor. His is the fate of war; and the
victors would be unworthy of their prizs if
they breathed any word of aerision or mock
cry The impulse is manifest i'll all the ten
denotes of the day. Better schools, better
morals, higher aims, hopes and ambitions,
these are indicated by every movement of the
people. We are casting aside the garments
and manners of the border and taking on the
comeier habliments of an enlightment born
o. those parents of wisdom, sagacity and ex-
perience. We congratulate the people of our
State upon the victory achieved in the name
of Mr.. kinkead for it is a sign and token
not only of the continued vitality of the
Republican party, but of the growth of a
wider and more excellent public sentiment.
The election of kinkead speaks well for the
people at large; the election of Daggett and
the assured reelection of Jones speak vol
umes for the strength and courage of the
Republican party. Our State has once more
ranged itself under the banner of Freedom
and Progress; and now, under the inspira-
ton of the victories in New York and Penn
sylvania. Massachusetts, and Ohio, we are as
sured of a sweeping triumph for Grant in
1870

JOHN MACKAY.

The people of Nevada have reason to be
proud of their greatest and bravest miner,
John Mackay. He is born of the people,
sympatises with his fellows. lives and delves
and spends his money here where his fortune
was made. The miners of the Comstock know
him. They know, also, that while it is true
that the so-called bonanza mines are no longer
source of revenue, the bonanza owners,
Mackay at their head, are spending thousands
of dollars every month to produce new devel-
bpments The workingmen of Storey County
were not bribed to vote against Governor
Bradley They were prompted by sense of
gratitude toward John Mackey and moved by
feeling of sympathy for the unostentatious
walk and life of ''The King of the Comstock. "
This is the true secret of the vote of Storey
County on the Governorship.

THE COMPLEXION OF THE Next CONGRESS.
Says the telegraph:
A Jo'nmot Washington special says the
Republicans here are satisfied at the result
of the elections especially as the fight for the
most part on square, hard-money principles
1t is believed the result will cool the ardor
of the rampant class who intended to repeal
the Resumption Act. A statement is pre-
pared here to-day which places the Democratic
ma jority at 10 to 10 IN the House. This is
based on the following gains of Republicans ;
New Hampshire l, Massachusetts [, New
York ), New Jersey 3, Connecticut L, Penn
sylvania 3, Maryland 1, Illinois L, Michigan
l and Wisconsin l; making tota' of II.
The Democrats are credited with gain of 8
in South Carolina, in Louisiana, l in North
Carolina, and 10 at the October elections
leaving the Republicans net gain of 6. The
present Democratic ajority in the House is
10, and deductin. the gains made by the Re
publicans yesterday, would leave the Demo
Gratis with only a majority of Is. Prominent
Democrats concede that the majority will not
exceed 20. The election of a Senator from
Connecticut in place of Barnum, fixes the
Democratic majority in the Senate after the
4th of March next at 8.
