WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE Democrats
cannot conceal their enthusiasm at the re-
suits of the Ohio election, and are already
putting candidates in the field for the
speakership. Among the names which
were canvassed at the Democratic head
quarters to-day were those of Carlisle, of
Kentucky; Converse, of Ohio; Montgomery
Blair, of Maryland; Eaton, of Connecti-
cut, and Randall, of Pennsylvania, some
of whom may not be elected.
SECRETARY HENDERSON,
of the Republican committee, commenting
on the results to-day, said that now that
the smoke had cleared away, the Republicans
could look at the matter calmly. 1--WE lost
Ohio purely from local causes. 1t was not
because the people were dissatisfied with
the Republican party, or with Republican
principles in general. Why, look at it,;
just across the Ohio river in West Virginia,
we gained more than 5000 in a single
congressional district, and throughout the
whole state of West Virginia the Republi-
can gains were large. want you to note
one thing, and that is we are going to
carry the next house of representatives.
All the Republican party want to do is
to keep the local quarrels and schisms
out of the congressional districts. We
need nothing else. This setback in Ohio
has only made US more determined, and
before this thing is over the Democrats
will be staggered By unexpected gains
from other quarters"
JUDGE LAWRENCE,
of Ohio, who has just returned from an
extended campaigning tour in that state,
gives the following as the reasons for the
Republican defeat: "There were five dis
tinct causes of the Republican defeat at
the recent election in Ohio: to. wit:
First-The issues as to the traffic in
intoxicating drinks.
Second-Dissensions and i'll feeling
growing out of the nomination of Repub-
lican candidates for congress in most of
the districts.
Thlrd-Unfounded complaints against
the recent Republican congress.
Fourth-Some complaints, equally I'M
founded, against the recent Republican
legislature.
Fifth-Absenteeism of Republicans
from the polls from the causes just stated,
and from their bad, chronic habit of voting
only every other year.
have stated these in the order of their
Importance, the largest cause frst.'
SPEAKER KIEFER
commenting upon the dispatch announc-
ing that Mckinley is saved in Ohio by
eight votes, says: "The great reduction
in his vote is due to the fact that the Ma
honing strikers who were compelled to sur
render to their employers without any ad-
vance of wages, voted solidly the Dem
ocratic ticket in order to spite their en-
ployers who desired the election of Nc
kinley. Everett was defeated in the
Cleveland district for the same cause,
added to which he had the burden
of the liquor agitation upon his shoul-
ders. Hoar predicted from the
outset that he would be defeated, and de-
sired to withdraw, but the managers did
not permit him to do so, and his fears
were realized"
AN OHIO TREASURY CLERK.
just returned from the campaign in that
state, says: "Nearly every one labored un-
der the delusion that Stephen w. Dorsey
was treasurer of the Hubbel committee,
and either directly or indirectly had the
handling of the peoples contributions, and
his reputation is not as white as that of
the wife of Caesar. The Hubbell commit
tee in the west is considered a mere
branch of the national Republican cam
paign committee of which Dorsey is treas
urer, and Marshall Jewell chairman. If
Dorsey does not resign, or the committee
does not kick him out at once, other states
will follow in the wake of Ohio"

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 15.-After the reva-
lation by Ohio it is folly to mince words
about Pennsylvania. That state is certain
to be carried by the Democrats in Novem-
Der, wit h Boss Cameron and his ticket in
tie field. No person with the slightest
knowledge of the situation can doubt that.
Beavers chances of election
were desperate before Ohio was heard
from. Now they are absolutely hopeless.
He is weighed down with a double load.
He has the intense local hostility to Don
Cameron depressing him on one side, and
the almost universal dissatisfaction with
the national administration crowding him
on the other. The latter feeling has been
greatly intensified during the past week.
