be set down as Republican. The Oneida DIS
trict also is Democratic only by accident and
both branches of the Republican party there

Adding these Districts to those named in the

But this does not exhaust the possibilities.
The Westchester and Rockland District, now

something of its Republican strength by the

THE CONTAuTYA1IoN or T4uuANr.

We observe with great satisfaction the
solicitude which seems to be felt by the
Anti -Tammany Democrats and few cynical
persons who are hunting for reasons to
"scratch Cornell" lest the Republicans of
this city and State shall be contaminated by
association with the Tammauy Democracy
We rejoice to see this demonstration on the
part of the Democrats, because it not only
reveals n tender regard for the good name of
the Republican party which does them great
credit, and of which we had not before sus-
pected them, but it also indicates that they
have come to what we may call realizing
sense of the unworthinesss of their old as
sociates. We should be still more pleased if
we could believe they would continue of the
same mind. and would not be found. soon
as this personal quarrel is out of the way
as thick as ever with the bold bad men of
Tammany as ready as ever to make common
cause with them against the public treasury
and the common veal. When they hold up
their hands in horror at the thought Of Re-
publicans associatng with Tammany Demo-
Gratis, we try to give them credit for spasm
of cleanliness. while we assure them positively
that their fears are unfOunded that there is
neither association nor alliance. We Try also
to C. edit the sincerity of the Tammany peO-
pie when they dwell upon the disreputable
character and mschievOus purposes of the
men with whom, up To a very recent period,
they were hand and glove. We say these
people ought to know each other from long
and intimate acquaintance; it is safe to be-
lievc them both, and accept the warning of
each against associatng with the other.
And of course we have great respect foI the
motives of the gifted but cTIatic young per-
sons who are so much shocked by the report
that an alliance has been formed between TIE
Republicans and Tammany Democrats that
they are said seriously 10 contemplate deposit
ing their unique aud delicate votes for Mr..
Robinson or tor some third or fourth or ifth
candidate in Mr.. RobinsOn's interest They
are high toned, but we feel compelled to say
they are illogical. Some of these gentlemen
have said. and we presume all of them
believe. that the nomination and election
of Mr. Tilden would he a public calamity,
tue mischief of which it would hardly be pos
sibe to exaggerate. But if any meaning at
all attaches TO the election of Governor in this
State it Is in its effect upon Mr.. Tilden's
chances for the Presidency. There are, to be
sure, "a few Democrats of prominence who SUD
New-York tribune., 1879-10-16

port Governor Robinson at the same tllne
that they oppose Tilden's nomination. But
they almost without exception opposed koD-
inson's nomination, and fell in to his sup
port, and will do the same In the event
of Tilden's nomination for the Presidency
Their opposition means nothing. As 10 the
real effect of the election. no intelligent person
who has any knowledge of New-York politics
can have any doubt. Robinson means Iilden !;
NO more nor less. Tiden forced his Domlna-
tion and compelled the bolt; and the Tilden
management is visible everywhere in the cam
paign. Frank Spinolas collar is not more
plain than the hand of Tilden in the Whoie
business Robinson's election gives llihen
not merely the vote of New-YOrk IN the
nominating convention, but what is vastly
more. tho prestige and momentum which
will make him the candidate; ; the defeat oi
Robinson, ii il does not actually elimlnate
Tilden from the contest. will SO dislcarten his
supporters and diminish his prestige IA to
practically disable him for the race. But
even il he should, by the free use OF his ma
teIial resources, secure the Presidential nom
ination after having lost New-York, would
he not be n much less dangerous competitor
than If he had won the present fghtf
This is not the merely local view of the
situation, magnIfed by an undue sense of the
importance OF our own Ssate it is the view
taken throughout the country. II IL under
stood everywhere that TINS election Is simply
the preliminary skirm,shing for next years
position. and that whether RObns0ns defeat
would Iut Tildcn clean out Oi the field or not,
i, il certain that his election would unquos-
tiOnably give Tidcn the Presidential NOM
nation and very dangerous advantage in
the election. There are people. Of course. who
will pay no heed to considerations Ike
these. but will vote rs they please upon what
they conceive TO be the issues involved,
whether State or National, and let the future
take care OF itself Different men will view 1t
in ditio rent LIGHTS. Bur we do not under
stand how any person Of ordinary fore
sight, who believes The nomination and
election OF Tiden next year would BE-
a public calamity, can do otherwise
than vote the straight Republican ticket,
and thus contribute in the most di-
rect and telling manner to effectively head
Ing off :hc Tilden conspiracy. II would seem
very Illogical to do anl thing else, even under
the deluson that there is an alliance between
the Republicans and the Tammany Dem0c-
racy, which needs to be frOwncd upon and re-
bulled. No one denies that Mr.. Kelly's can
didacy Is an advantage to the Republicans.
Republicans would he more or less than human
if they did not look with complacency upon
that diversion. They do look kindly upon
it, and will take what advantage they can of
it. They frankly say so. Beyond this they
have 10 relations with the movement or with
Tammany Hall. Timid and Lish-toned Re-
publicans need not be shocked at rumors of an
alliance or understanding, nor need the Anti
Tammany Democrats waste any anxiety lest
Republicans should be contaminated by asSo-
citation with Iammany.

We attempted TO say yesterday morning That the
Republican contest in Ohio recalled. IN its spiIt and
in its electric results il not also ia the size OF tho
majority. the historic Valaud CHAM campaign. By
what printers know as AN out" We We're made to
say that II recalled the size Of the antN Nallandig
ham majority also, which. considering that II II
ONLY about One-ifth as grea., seems u trlne
strained.
And yet, when you look at it closely, the cx-
aggeration does not appear very serious. Inc de-
feat of Vallandgham was the verdict against open,
defiant sympathy with treason IN time OF war. ID,
defeat of Ewing is the verdict against an ~
sidious disguised effort To bankrupt what the
rebels could not openly destroy, and 10 rule the
country they could not break up by an alliance
with Their Northern sympathizcrs. The one was
the turning point in the war for the Union. The
other Is the turning point IN the struggle prevent
surrender of the Government OF the Union To the
men who tried 20 break it mp. Every succeeding
month after Nalandigham's defeat there was less
and less danger that the loyal North could be
crippled by fire IN the rear. Every month after
Eving's defeat there will be- less and less danger
that the people who could save the Union in war
cannot hold together to keep il safe in peace.
Vallandighams defeat in 1863 was the prelude TO
Abraham Lincoln's triumph in 1861 Ewng's de-
feat in 1879 means an equally Important Republi-
can triumph in 1850.
Finally. and this for the special benefit of our
friends right hero :-Vallan lighams defeat in Ohio
was immediately followed by Republican major
ity of %, 900 in New-York. against Democratic
majority Of IL 900 the year before. We have now
no adverse majority of last year to overcome. Why
then should not Ewings defeat by twenty thousand
I'm Ohio lead the way to Robinson's defeat in New
York by sixty thousand, three weeks hence
New-York tribune., 1879-10-16

The news from the Democratic strongholds
in Ohio. few of which were heard fropl on
Tuesday night. dimnishes slightly the esti-
mates of Mr.. Fosters plurality, but leaves all
the great results unchanged. 1t Is now
thought that the plurality may fall to 17,ooo'
instead of being 1000 rs we stated yesterday.
But the difference between them is not import
ant. and in other respects the Republican
situation has even improved. The Legisla-
ture. over which the Democrats had short
spasm OF "claminc." is known to have Il hand
some Republican majority on JOINT ballot. Tins
Is estimated 90 be over twenty-five votes. 30
Mr.. Thurnans SUI has set. There were notable
Republican gains in different sections OF the
State. Cuyahoga County, in which Cleveland
is situated, has cast one of the largest votes
in its history, and has given Mr.. Foster
larger majority, by perhaps 1000 votes, than
It gave Mr. Hayes in 1875. In Toledo,
the hot-bcd of GrcenbackiSm, most OF
the Greenback vote went to General
Ewing, but the Republicans have actually
redeemed the county, and elected Their Sena-
tor bv handsome majority. In Hamilton
County. Foster has a splendid majority OF
$500, and the Republicans make clean
sweep, electing even the colOred candidate
for the Legislature. Very little has been
heard 30 far about the Greenback vote proha-
bly, because it is so small. The only estimate
that has been made puts it at probably
$4,000; last year 1t was $4,000. The end OF
the Greenback party seems to be at hand.
In Iowa the Republicans are just beginning
to discover how sreat a triumph they nave
won Their majority over the combined OPP
position Is now placed at 10000, which Is a
gain over two years ago of 33,00 votes. There
Is majority of seventy on joint ballot III the
Legislature, and the two Congressional Dis
tricts which last year elected Greenback Con-
gressmen now return to their original Repuo-
Hcanism.-All these are splendid results. Now
let New-York Outd0 them!
