THE TRIBUNE SUMMARIZES.

New York, Nov. 5.-The Tribune this
morning summarizes the results of the cleo
tions Yesterday as follows: The Republicans
carried all the so-called doubtful States by
sure majorities. In New York they have
elected Cornell by plurality of IS, 900, and
probably the rest of the State ticket by
from s, 600 to 10000. They have also secured
large majority in both branches of the
LegislatuH.
In Massachusetts, they repeated their de-
feat of Butler, and elected Long Governor
bv plurality ranging from $4,000 to II, ,0O0
They have an overwhelming majority in
the Legislature.
In Pennsylvania the Republicans rolled
up the enormous majority of $4,000.
Wisconsin has gone Republican by 10000
majority, which may rise to 10000.
Connecticut has elected q Legislature
which shows Republican majority Of SO
on joint ballot against a Republican major
ity of 40 last year.
In New Jersey the Republican, gained
Assemblymen and Senator in the Coun-
ties heard from.
Nebraska has gone Republican by 10000.
Returns from Virginia are rather indef-
mite, but the Debtrpaying party is hopeful.
1t has carried the Legislature,
There was good deal of scratching in
Minnesota, but the Republicans carried the
State by 10000 majority.
Mississippi had quiet election and was
solid for the Democrats.
The future belongs to the Republican
party. Only by some new act folly or
faithlessness can it forfeit that public conf.
dence which the elections reveal The
election in this State disposes of Tilden's
effort to kill off John Kelly. He is bigger
power to-day in the Democratic party of
New York than on any previous day of his
political life. He can now dictate his
terms henceforth for local politics, and
within the close corporation of the Demo-
cratic machine Kelly is bigger man than
Tilden.
THUS THE TIMES TALKS.
The Times Republican, says the day was
one of great victories. Eight States were
carried by the Republicans ard only three
States carried by the Democrats. New
York gives Cornell $4,000 plurality. and
elects Democrats to the minor State offices.
The Republicans elect % Senators and 81
Assemblvmen; the Democrats Senators
and 40 Assemblymen. There is very little
doubt now that every Northern State, with
the possible exception of Indiana. may be
considered as safe for the Republicans in
the Presidential election next year. The
effects of the Kelly vote in thia State on
the political prospects of Tilden, ought to
be fatal.
Henceforth no intelligent person will
mention Tilden seriously as possible can.
