Post the Books.

The Republicans are inclined to Ie
joice over the results of the election.
They have justification for their jublla
tion only as the condemned man Joys
in a reprieye. Their day of doom has
been only postponed they have not
even received absoution or a pardon.
The Democrats have not lost or failed
to carry single state which has ever
been accounted as belonging to them or
as necessary to their success in the i'm
pending presidential contest. The net
results of this years elections are right
fairly stated by the Philadelphia Times
when 1t says the general verdict of the
November states leaves the parties about
easy in honors for the start In the presi
dental race, the only material odds OF
the year being in the Democratic gain
OF Ohio"
New York and New Jersey are seer
to be steadfastly Democratic. The hope
of the Republicans to elect their candi
date next year, is staked upon two con
siderations, either to carry one or thC
other of these two states, as well as Ohio
or TO make such break In the SOull
as would likely have followed Malone
success this year. When the books ar,
posted, however in 1888, it is seen tina
Malone is utterly routed, his politica
power broken, his own reelection rem
dered impossible and Virginia safely
anchored on the Democratic side. 1t Is
true that the head Of the Democratic
ticket in New York Is defeated, but the
rest OF II Is elected by good ma
jority, and the result gives the certainty
that this controlling state will be Dem
ocratic in 1884, With Ohio In doubt,
the Republicans have simlly saved

The returns Of the elections as they
become more complete show that the
Democratic victory of last Tuesday is even
more decisive than was at first anticipated.
The Republican majority in this state will
settle at about 1900. The Democratic
state ticket in New York is elected by an
average majority of $1,000 except in the
case Of the secretary of state, who was de
feated by factional feeling aud opposition
of the liquor interests. The result, how.
