TIE RESULT.

Ohio goes republican by 4
majority Of 1900 and the re-
publicans also get control Of
the legislature, which will give
them Il republican senator. The
defeat of the democrats is &C
counted for. simply by the fact
that the republicans had the
mot votes. There is no use
drawing fine spun theories as to
the causes which have lost Ohio

one of its old-time leaders.
Thomas II. Benton, Of Missou-
ri, was known as "Old Bullion"
on account of his preference
for hard money The Ohio
democracy fixed up a. monde
script platform calculated TO
hold hard and soft money dem
| ocrats and also to take on the
greenbackers-a sort of a please
! everybody arrangement, and as
usual in such cases it pleased
nobody and resulted in a disas-
trous defeat. The resumption
Of specie payments vas a re-
publican measure and in the
main has proved successful, the
country generally is prosperous
and there seems to be no cause
or occasion for a change in the
financial policy. The replbli-
can managers seem to be
shrewder politicians than the
democrats and have outwitted
and outgeneraled them. The
lesson taught by the result in
Ohio should be carefully stud
led and may prove of untold
value in the presidential cam
paign. The democrats are in a
majority in the country if they
can be united on common
ground and for Z common pur-
pose. 1t now rests with leaders
of the democracy to work for
unihcation of the party, all sec
tional differences must be har-
monized and financial policy
adopted that will meet the views
Of the country at large. If
there are any statesmen left
now is the time to bring them
to. the front, as without states
ncn and without management
all is lost and we had as well
surrender to the enemy.
