The Republicans in Better Spirits
To-day.

The feeling in republican circles Is conSidera-
bly, improved over that of yesterday. The
Maine defeat is not so bad as was anticipated.
The fact that the republicans have the legisla.
ture on joint ballot, which ensures republican
successor to Senator Hamlin, they say, leaves
the 1usiOnfsts with only the barren victory OF
Governor PlaistedS election. The congres.
sion6l delegation stands as it was.
While there Is no great substantial victory in
O1llces secured, the graver question Is how vii
Maine affect the Indiana and Ohio campaigns,
IL mas certainly inspired the democracy with
commence. and they are now eXultant where
heretofore they were only hopeful. One OF the
theories OF the republican defeat Is that it. is
not due to the management OF the democrats
but to the active canvass made by Gen. Butte.
and his personal contribution of 500, 900 to the
campaign sinews.
There is one view of the result which doe,
not seem TO be OVereStfmated and that is tha
1t Will sadly disarrange the republican plan OF
campaign. 1t had been intended to send Blaine
to California, to remain until November. The
record OF the Maine Senator on the Chinese
question being in accord with the views enter.
tanned by the Pacific slope states 1t was thought
he was the best dependence for republican sue
cess In that quarter. The democrats now say
that Blaine Will have his hands full to keep
Maine In line, and that II he does not go into the
Pacific slope states for this reason, that a biz
republican gun Will be spik ed, and in this sense
If In no other, the Maine victory is more than
substantial.
The talk among republicans to-day is that the
lesson OF the defeat will be 10 spur the leaders
to increased vigilance. and that such vigilance
Will be demonstrated when Indiana votes.
About two O'Clock this afternoon the droop-
Ing spirits OF the republicans got another lif:
the latest adyiceS indicating that Pastei S
election was still in doubt, aud that when all
the votes was counted that Davis after all may
be elected by meager majority.
