THE RESULT.

Unofficial returns, nearly complete,
give, with reasonable satisfaction, the
result of the election. Hubbard's MA
iority cannot vary much from $4,000, and
the politicians are divining the cause OF
its serious reduction from two years age
when it was nearly $4,000. Several
causes evidently contributed to this re,
suit The large detection of Scandinavian
votes for Bicrmann on the ground OF
nationality; dissatisfaction on the part OF
many friends of Window a large prohi
bition vote in some localities and q
kind of general apathy. which in some
counties, reduced the vote cast nearly one
half, which was of course detrimental tc
the Republican majority, as the reserve
strength lies in the moral and conserva
tive portion of society. And yet these
tendencies, which have told so unfavora'
bly, on the usually overwhelming majori'
ty of the Republican party in Minnesota
are regarded as only temporary, and the
majority next fall on the Presidential
candidate will assume its old time pro-
portions.
In the east, the signs are. on the whole,
rcassuriuy to the Republican party
Massachusetts and Pennsylvania have
been redeemed without question, while
New York is held by the Democrats by a
mere thread, which state last year gave
them nearly 200, 600 majority, giving the
Republicans strong encouragement to en-
ter the next Presidential campaign with
confidence.
1.-THE defeat of Mahoneism in Virginia, is
fatal to the hope of securing Republican
electoral votes in the south next year, and
will result in making a solid north which
will be helpful to the dominant party. 1t
may, however, affect Arthur's chance for
denomination unfavorably, as much of
his strength in the convention will come
from the south.
One of the amusing incidents of the
election is Ben Buffers rage at his defeat
in Massachusetts, in which he stoutly
affirms his utter freedom from all Plesi-
dental aspirations, but then the events
of the last few days may have worked a
wholesome change in his views.
In the opinion of the most careful o.
servers, the Republican party will enter
next year with reasonable prospects OF
success, into one Of the most holly con-
tested Presidential elections we have ever
known
