If the friends of Mr.. Conkling had succeeded IN

Stalwart victory

The Bourbon cause in Virginia seems to have had

Mr.. Tilden is welcome to all the victory he has
won. It is not likely to whirl him so rapidly To-

Bossism in Pennsylvana has escaped ny u shave,
but it has had lively shaking up.
Look out for strident fraud yell from T he World
to-day. 1t prepared the way for one yesterday
when it claimed the State for the Democrats py
So $40 majority. This is the usual course OF this
pyrotechnic newspaper. Every time there. is an
election il claims the State, and when the returns
refuse to sustain its claims it shouts fraud ana de

Senator Conkling spent election day in New-York
When he was a candidate for delegate to the state
Convention he spent election day IN Utica.
His youth will probably never again be urged
against Mayor Low n crime. Its effect as cam

There was much interest expressed in Brooklyn
Yesterday by jubilant Republicans to learn what
dav had been fixed upon by Boss " Mclaughlin
and Mayor Howell for the Democrats to do their
voting.
The oft-repeated resignation of Boss" Me-
Laughin from active politics was evidently ac-
cepted by his followers rs though he really meant
il. His retirement Is likely 60 be permanent.
mike" Norton looms as the ideal Reformed
Democrat. Let all the people gaze upon hlm!
John Kelly is very chirpy, and with excellent
reason One swing of his shillalah is worth 10000
men any day in the week His chances for a
Presidential nomination in 1884 are as good as DIT.
Iilden's
New-York State is Republican in spite of the
lethargy of an OFF year and the openly avowed
treachery Of the Stalwars who boast that they cut
the ticket In fact. the only part of the party
seriously damaged by the election Is the machine,
which has met disaster in all its stronghOlds.
IL still remains true that this is bad year for
the Democratic party.
All honor to the Republicans of Brooklyn. BY
their plucky fight they not only rescued their city
from Boss rule. but they also saved the Republican
State ticket from defeat
