and were routed, horse. foot ard drs-
goons." The cause of 6efeat can be
traced clearly to prohibition. When
our repu blican legislature passed q law
taxing saloons which has since been de-
clsrsd unconstitutional and law closing
saloons on Sunday, the German element,
about 2O5t?) in number, obey-
ing orders from their leaders, re-
solved to punish the republicans
for their temerity by voting with
democrats. Added to this is the siam
pede eff republican workingmeu, on sc-
account of being worsted in the strikes,
particularly that of the Cleveland rolling
mills. A director of that company, Mr..
Everett. was nominated for Congress BY
the republicans. and became target for
the workingmen. hence his signal defeat
IN strong republican district. Imprac.
teal pfohibitionists drew largely and en-
tlrely from the republican ranks, and
aided greatly in helping saloonists and
Germans in Furnishing that perty. 1t
was simply an illustration Of how ex.
tremes meet. Then. the other class of
temperance men throughout the state
were In lethargie state. and made no
effort to appreciate what republicans
had done for temperance, re-.
sultiDg in an army Of stsy-at.homes
TO cap the climax democrats were aided
by q most efficient corps OF assistants,
consisting Of Is, GOO ssloonists and 5,OO3
bartenders, making force of2O,000 who
electieneered aud did all the work tn de-
tail and stood around Sl,960 pedd!ing
tickets In addition to other classes OF
workers. They assessed themselves snd
contributed with what the brewers gave
nearly SlO0, 600 to the state central com
mite to be used as corruption fund.
All these causes have resulted iG repub-
Leans iosiAg the state by from Is. ego to
10000, plurality. We have lost con-
gresham IN the Cleveland district, two
IN Cincinnati and one in Toledo district;
Judge Geddes has defeated Herr, repub-
lican, M. ?, Degraf, Mckinney s. Kei-
fer are in danger. The probability
is very .rest that 8 ajogity
II our tWeRty-one congressman
will be democrats The republicans had
similar experience in 1874. When the
ladies were engaged in the temperance
crusade movement, but they recovered
the following year when they elected
Noyes governor. It is quite clear that
Ohio with its large foreign element and
whisky drinking democrats, with its
two parties SO nearly matched, cannot
successfully follow the example of Ksn-
sas, Iowa, which have generally gone re-
publican by from $4,000 to so. GOO ma
joritv. In those states republicans out
number the democrats three to one,
hence the temperance character of their
people.
Chicaao, 11.-Tmes Dayton: Repub-
licsns in this part of the state and the
Third Congressional District, have ex-
perienced an unprecedented Waterloo.
Democrats have elected everything from
the top to the bottom of thu ticket in this
county. Montgomery, which gave the
democrats majority Of ninety in the
Foster campaign last year, runs I'D the
figures TO 1900. net gain of 100.
Miami County shows up with q small
republican gain, lot exceeding $50.
PreblCe ounty reports the same state of
affairs, r. n. Murray's majority demo
cratic candidate for congress) will be moi
less than ECO. The democratic gain in
this county over the election for secre-
tary of state in 1881, is 92S. The latest
advices from Miami County indicate 4
democratic gain Of thirty, which will
make Murrsy's majority 500. This is
from democratic sources,
