THE people of Ohio have covered them
selves with glory Tuesday will long
be memorable as the day when Charles
Fosters cant and Hubbell's blaekmail
corruption fund running the Republi-
can machine were overwhelmed by some
10000 majorityl asa
The State was redistrieted by the late
Legislature and so gerrymandered that
the Democrats were to get but four
members certain the Republicans ff-
teen and two doubtful. As things look
at this writing the tidal wave of Tues
day gives fifteen Democrats and six Re-
publieans.
This result in Ohio probably settles
the complexion of the next House of
Congress. It's influence upon the No
vember States will be great; but the un-
settled and distracted condition of the
Republican party in the great States of
New York and Pennsylvania was sufi-
cient of itself to insure Democratic
majority in those States. The i'll
tongue of Governor Foster and the
snarling ISLANDERS and thrusts Of such
papers as the Cleveland Leader availed
nothing. The people wanted a change
and hence the result.
The Democratic State ticket is elected
by very large majOrities, the candidates
being as follows:
Republican-For Secretary Of sState
Charles Townsend; Judge of the Supreme
Court, John II. Doyle; member of Boatt
of Public Works, Charles A. Flickinger
DemOcratic-For Secretary of State
James W. Newman; Judge Of the Su
preme Court, John W. Okey; member Of
Board of Public Works, Henry 8. Weible
The Greenbaekers and PrOhibitionistt
also made State nominations.
In addition, twenty-one COngressmer
were elected. In the present Congress
Ohio has twenty representatives, fifteen
Republicans and five Democrats. The
vote of the State on Governor last yeal
with which comparisons are made was
as follows:
BOOkwalter, Dem. m................2 .288, Az
Ludlow, Prohibition. ........... 16,39I
Fosters plurality. y.............. 34,30e
