Daily Republican., 1879-10-25
Presidential Cancellation.

There are thirty-Bix States in the Union
that will vote for President in le90,and
will cast in all 1863 electoral votes. One
hundred and eighty-fve of these con-
stitute majority sufficient to elect,
ths. being the vote President Hayes
recsived in 1876. From all appearances
in the campaign Of 1880 it will be a
Solid North against Solid South, the
North being Republican and the South
Democratic. This being the case the
vote will stand as follows:
Solid Nor.h.-California, 6; Colorado,
3; Connecticut, 6; Illinois, q; Indiana,
IS; Iowa, II; Kansas, S; Maine u;
Massachusetts, l3; Michigan. IL; Min
nesota, s; Nebraska, s; Nevada, .; New
Hampshire, 5; New Jersey, >; Ne"
York, 35; Ohio, %; Oregon, 3; Pennsyl-
vania, 90; Rhode Island, A; Vermont, D;
Wisconsin, 10. Total, 23l.
Solid Sonth.-Alabama, 10; Arkan-
sss, 6; Delaware, 8; Florida, A; Georgia,
II: Kentucky, Il; Louisiana, s; Mary
land, s; Mississippi, s; Missouri, 10;
North Carolina, 10; South Carolina, 7;
Tennessee, II; Texas, s; Virginia, IL;
West Virginia, S. Total, l3S.
OF the Northern States, the Demo
Gratis lay claim to New York, 30 votes;
Indiana, Is; New Jersey, 8 and Connec'
ticut votes; total IS, all Of which
were cast for Tilden in 1876. This with
the solid South, 1873, would give them
203 electoral votes, or eighteen mort
than enough to elect. Leaving New
York which the Democrats have abou
as much chance OF carrying as they
have to carry Obip, out CT the question
they would be left in q minority o
seventeen, even by giving them Con
pecticut, Indiana and New Jersey
Even Oregon aud Wisconsin might q
thrown in and still they would lacl
four Ct an e!eetiOn. Giving them New
York and Indiana they would Law
three more than enough to elect. !
will be seen from the foregoing tha
under any circumstances the Democrat
must carry New York to elect thei
Presid ant. Tidpn says he can carr.
his State, while no other Democrat cal
and this is what gives him strength
with his party, the Democrats expecting
that by the aid of fraudulent vote
in New York and Tilden's 'barls to say
the Presidency. From present iHdica
tions however any Republican candi
data will bs able 70 carry New York, by
P fair vote, aud Connecticut, Indian
and New jersey as well, and there ar
MANY enthusiastic friends Of Camera
Grant who think that if he is the can
didate, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi
and South Carolina would be added t
the Republican column. Il is rue ,ha
u there are sigma that the Republican
and independents of the South do No
intend to be- bulldozcd as they hav
been in the past, hut for ourselves "
are not infatuated with this view Of til
case and would much rather base or
!, hopes upon the prospects Of an entil
: solid North, than upon receiving an
. support from section Of the countr
where Republicans are murdered |
scores simply because they are Repu
, licsns. The skies however are hrigl
. with the onens OF grand victory f
II human liberty, for right, for freedO
