Col. 1Iooten, on the 9TH instant, sent
the following address from the Republican
State Committees headquarters
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. e.-To the RepublI-
cans of Pennsylvania: The State Committee
tenders TO every Republican in the State and
to all others who aided in securing the victory
of Noy. 4, thanks and congratulations.
You have given the greatest majority ever
cast in Pennsylvania for Republican caudi-
date save that given TO OeN. Grant, in 1872,
and you have done this in Il campaign, the
seeming apathy Of which, at first, alarmed
the timid and the doubtful.
You have given to Pennsylvania proud
place in the phalanX OF States demanding
that our revived prosperity shall not be des-
trOyed that our currency shall not be de-
based; that the public credit shall not be tar
nlshed; and that tho rights and privileges of
the citizen shall not be crushed out. All this
You have done by your stern protest against
continuing In power the Democratic larty,
which assuils prosperity by collusion with
foreign capital to break down American labor
and home industries; that seeks to destroy
sound financial policy and substitute crazy
theory Of paper currency; that prostrates
public credit through State, corporate and
municipal reputation thereby leaiing GER
tainly to the reputation of our national debt,
and that sup! resses by violence in the South
rem States those rights Of life, liberty aud the
pursuits OF happiness without security for
which governments are contemplate and eX-
istencc a curse.

The man that hc put up il elecued-eircted
while nphndy else is Conkling only made
one speech in his behalf The administra-
ton which had removed Cornell FROM office
as an unfit man made several. The people
of New York have elected hiin aud no other
Republican. This makes the rbuke to the
admin strntion more TWinted. They cannot
rejoice iu a republican, victory but must
snilc,u simulated joy ovrr a Cornell tr.-
umph amid Republican defeat. However
miserable Conklng may be in Rhode ISLAND,
he is surely happy IN the appreciation OF New
York.

Thus the monthly statements which are

The utteranccs of Henry NJ. Phillips,
says the Philadelphia Record, are always re-
garded with weight. Talking of the late
election, he says: "The result is n surprise
on account of the immense majority for the
Republicans. This was owing to number
of causes, among which may be enumerated
the discussions in the Democratic ranks, the
apathy of the Democrats (who polled $4,000
votes less than they did at the Presidential
election three years ago. Also to the fact
tlat tho lists were not purged, this alone
cutting off ten TO fifteen thousand votes from
the Republicans each year. do not think
much can be expected by the Democrats
from Pennsylvania in the Presidential cleo
tlon.ncxt year, This last remark was made
with great emphasis, and then Mr.. Phillips
continued: "New York State is very differ
ent. With all the discussions, divisions and
gatherings down OF tke party, it is clear there
is Democratic ma ajority in the State which
can be successfully brought into play when
an acceptable candidate is presented. The
next National Convention viii, without
A94Rt, onqWipas samao oHs .agl..n;, 9ga nst whom
York to start with, the Democracy may very
well hope for few other votes sufficient to
elect their candidates. The masses of the
people are for REFORM" said Mr.. Phillips,
"and reforIu means political change. This
can and will probably be brought about by
the selection of candidate for whom all
can vote. The want of success in this off
year upon national elections is better calcu-
lated to cause the party workers to be up
and doing. 1t shows them that there is
work before them, aud that success only can
be accomplished by discretion and hard la
bor." The reporter endeavorcd to Obtain
from Mr.. Phillips his ideas as to the most
available men for the Democracy in 1880,
but he said he would rather not speak at
present on this topic.

BY dispatch from Harrisburg we learn
that the total vote Of Pennsylvania at the
late election was 532, ,379, decrease of 1897
7s5 from the vote of last year for Governor
The falling off is even greater than was in
dicated by the partial returns published last
week. Examined in detail, and taking the
vote of 1878 as q standard from which to
make the computations, it appears that the
Republican vote fell off over twelve per ct,
the Democratic vote over twenty-five per
Ct, the Grecnback vote nearly sixty-eight
per CT, and the temperance vote less than
two per ct. The smullncss Of the whole
vote makes the returns practically valueless
rs q guide to changes that may have taken
place in the political opinions of voters.
Notwithstanding the great Republican plu-
rality Of nearly sixty THOUSAND, the Repub-
lcans this year polled $4,000 fewer votes
than were cast for the Democratic candidate
for Governor in 1878. The vote Of last year
was the largest ever cast in this State, with
the exception of the vote at the Presidential
election of 1876. when the total reached
75S,s74, nearly quarter ofa million greater
than the vote this year. 1t is evident
therefore, that there are plenty of voters i'll
Pennsylvania "held in reserve" The vote
this wear was the smallest cast since 1865
except in 1873, when, on very light vote
the Republicans had $4,000 majority.
