TIE NEXT ELECTORAL COLLEGE

There are a few doubling Thoma'
SEES among the democrats Of this vi
cinity, who seem to regard the loss
of Ohio by the democracy on Tues
day as fatal to the prospects of that
party in the presidential contest of
next year. Such men have evident
ly paid but little attention to the as
pect Of affairs as presented by the
latest elections held in the north and
west. A careful survey OF the field
shows that the democrats are not as
liable to defeat as would appea" at
first glance, but stand more than an
even chance of success. La the north
the democracy can safely lay claim
TO the states of Connecticut, Indiana.
New jersey aud New York. There
may be some who will dispute the
possibility of carrying New York.
The present split in the democratic
ranks may lose the state for the
democrats at the election next month.
But year hence this dissensiou will
be healed, and the democracy pre-
sent solid front. With a united
democracy the state is certain to
cast its electoral vote for the candi.
date of the party, whoever he may
be.
A look at the complexion of the
next electoral college presents the |
following as the probable and almost |
positive status of that body after the
election of November. 1880:

MocRATIC STATES. REPUBLICAN STATES
va.
DOUBTFUL STATES,

In the above computation we give
the republicans the states of Illinois
and California. which may fairly be
considered doubtful, and granting
them both Oregon aud Wisconsin, it
will be seen that they cannot. by
any method of figuring, command
more than 166 electoral votes, which
is nineteen less than a majority.
With q candidate for vice president
from Illinois-such a man as Geuer-
al j. NJ. Palmer for instance-that
state could easily be carried by the
democrats, and in that event the
party could afford the loss of New
York. But, as we have said, the ex.
listing breach in the party in that
state will no doubt be healed long
before the presidential election, and
with nnited democracy the empire
state will be democratic to the core.
We can afford to allow the repub-
lican party to take Ohio and yet win
the battle in 1880. There is margin
enough to work upou, provided no
grave blunders are committed. In
fact, the result in Ohio settles all
dissensions on the financial question,
and cleaYes the way for a rousing
democratic victory in 1880.

II Secretary Sherman has found
any leisure from stump-speaking
lately to attend to the business of
his department even casually, he
must have observed that the revival
of business activity is beginning to
make itself felt in the public reven'
ues. Estimates from Washington
state the surplus Of this month now
closing at the large sum Of six mil.
lions of dollars. and each succeed
ing month hereafter is expected to
Weld much more than the authoriz-
ed expenditure. This is very graft
flying. 1t does not particularly con-
firm the stalwart stories of an i'm"
pending civil war, but it needs to be
turned to proper account. This
growing surplus should be used, not
in reducing the public debt, but in
reducing The taxes. The purchases
already made of United States bonds
for the sinking fund are at least FIVE
years in advance of the requirements
of the Law. Let Congress, when it
meets iG December, ascertain the
precise figures from the Treasury,
and then declare the sinking fund
full to the date which those figures
shall warrant. What the country
now needs is a reduction of taxa
ton to the full extent of the esti-
mated surplus revenue. The credit
of the country, as nobody believes
at home or abroad the raw.head and
bloody bones tales of the stalwarts,
is more than good. and there will be
no difficulty in renewing at lower
rates OF interest the six and five per
cent. bouds which are redeemable

the time that fresh payments into
