Ohio and Iowa.

The latest returns from the elections iii
Ohio and Iowa look even better for the
republicans than the first received. The
republican gains reported in the earliest
dispatches have run through the States.
1t sometimes happens that first reports
OF elections are deceptive as to the State.
the gain or loss which may appear being
peculiar to the locality from witch the re-
port emanates, while the rest of the State
makes a different showing. But this APP
pears not to be the ease in regard to the
elections Of Tuesday The gains continue
as the reports come in, and the republic
can majority swells likewise.
1t is now estimated that Fosters ma ior-
ity for Governor of Ohio may run up to
1900 or 10000 majority, while there
seems TO be little chance for doubt
that the republicans have carried
both branches of the Legislature. With
such a majority as Foster has it could
scarcely be otherwise than that the legis-
lature is republican. 1t must only be an
outrageous gerrymander that could give
democratic legislature in conjunction
with SO great republican majority for
Governor. We are strong in the faith
that the Legislature is republican. If it
be so, goodbye to Mr.. Thurman as
United States Senator after the 4th of
March next, for while at least, and
probably forever.
Iowa is coming up grandly as the re-
turns roll in. Like Ohio, the republican
victory looks better as time passes. One
fact stands out with remarkable clearness
IN the returns received, that is, the very
small greenback vote cast. The green
back party is nowhere in the returns. 1t
would puzzle Scion Chase To trace any
but the feeblest signs of its existence in
the two great States which voted Tuesday
Evidently the party has seen its best
days east and west. and will soon take its
place among political organizations which
have fiourished for day and then quietly
passed away.
more important fact than the dying
out of the greenback organization is the
wheeling into line of the north in resist
ance to the solid south, and all which
that phrase implies. There is no mistak-
ing the meaning of the republican vie
tories that have occurred this fall. They
signify the purpose of the north to "hold
the fort against the adherants of the
'lost cause revived, and to elect man in
1880, for President, who will conduct his
administration in accordance with the
principles for which the blood of our sol
diers was shed, from 1861 to 1865

their demonstrations grew out of their affec-

Scarcity Of Skilled Labor.

Only year ago, thousands of skilled iron
workers weretramping fromto to town, and
idly parading our streets begging for work OF
any kind at any price. Things have strange
ly altered in this short time, and the present
condition of the iron trade is now an old

silent for years, resound once more with the
busy hum of activity; the lurid glow of nu.
