A FIGHT FOR PRINCIPLE.

Seldom have elections been held which
turned more distinctiyely upon great
moral principle than those Of Ohio and
Iowa, Tuesday. 1t matters little SO far
as individual qualifications for Govern
or go, whether Foraker or Hoadley sue
coed Governor Foster, and 1t Is equally
a matter of Indifference, so far as con-
Germs strictly official duties, whether
Governor Sherman be his own successor
or not; but such was the issue joined in
the campaign that public morality was
at stake to an almost unprecedented ex-
tent. Circumstances forced the parties
into as sharp antagonism upon temper
ance as ever upon slavery or the union.
In Iowa the candidates voted for were:
.,lr Republican. Democratic.
Governor. ......B X. Sh. rman Il u kfnne
Lieut.. Gov. o H Manning Justice Clark

Democratic candidate John Cook. WIS.
KenwOrth was the Greenback candidate
until few days ago, when he withdrew.
Twenty-Five out of fifty members of the
state Senate were also voted for, and a
full House of Representatives of a hun
dred and fifty members. The legisla-
ture elected will choose United States
Senator to succeed the Hon. W. B. ALI
sOr, whose term expires March 4, 1885.
The last legislature had a Republican
majority of 80 on joint ballot, and TWEEN
ty of the twenty-One Senators holding
over are Republicans, SO that the cleo
ton of Republican Senator is beyond
peradventure.
