tinue-Satchwell, of Spirit Lake, and a crank
named Leo from Mason City,-would ''speak
their pieces at Emmetsburg, on Thursday the
9th inst. They came as advertised and footed
to less than three dozen of small fry Republicans

seven Democrats. Jackson is an imbecie, and
should be comfortably fixed in some asylum for

Press Comment.

CHICAGO, Oct. 14.-Regardng the Ohio cleo
ton the Ne1Cs will say editorialy in the morning
Ohio has gone Republican by majority ex
ceeding $4,000 We think it may be said III all
fairness that such result was not al
together unexpected. 1t was certainly
beyond all reason that the state
should go Democratic, in view of the
extraordinary efforts which were made by the
Republican managers to capture it. At this
writing, however, the victory is not so decisive
as 10 end the presidential campaign. a very
marked impetus has unquestionably been given
the Republican cause, and if the Democrats are
to win at all it will only be after
a now doubly desperate struggle Iowa
and Illinois, which yesterday hung trembling in
the balance, are no longer doubtful They will
both give positive Republican majorities. In
Wisconsin and Michigan the skies are brighten
ing over the head of the Plumed knight. Alto
gether the campaign is again as it was at the
opening, dependent upon New York and Indiana,
and Biane's stock is quoted several points
higher.
The Tribune will say:
1t is victory of gigantic proportions and brings
with 1t sweeping and resistless consequences. 1t
means the rescue of state which was completely
possessed by the Democrats. The Democrats
had concentrated all their strength and all their
resources in Ohio, conscious that they had all the
advantages on their side. They staked
their existence on single die, and they have

Ohio victory is sufficiently decisive to place the
election of Blaine and Logan beyond any per-
adventure. Henceforwasd the Democrats will
save their money, and the doubtful states and
doubtful voters will be doubtful no longer.
The Inter Ocean viii say:
The Republican majority in Ohio is apparently
$4,000 and upward. How much upward may
require several days 10 determine. This indi-
Gates that the majority will be fully $4,000 for
Blaine and Logan in November. The national
ticket is many thousands stronger than the state
II 'ket and Ohio is far more united and
impetuoHs on national than on state
issues. The full impetus of the Republican
campaign will now he transferred to New York
The result in Ohio is great and glorious. 1t
proves that the patriotism of the American
people cannot be lulled TO slumber or beguiled
into again trusting the destnes of the Republic
to those whose hands are still red with the
blood of their assaults upon the nations life. 1t
proves that the American people get behind Will
flying cartoons aud picturesque SANDERS, disc i'm
mating between accusations and evidence. 1t
proves that protection to American industries is
the settled doctrine of the country for at least
four years to come.

by 5000, which is the estimate in Wheeling.
The Democrats, in private, concede Ohio Repub-

Ohio is claimed by the national
Republican committee by from 1900 to 10000,

in result in Ohio that Chickerilg hall had been

last night at which the Ohio election returns
were received. That Of the Democrats was at
251 Nicoliet and the Republicans held forth at
Harrison hall. The Democratic gathering
was quiet and orderly. corps of volunteer
clerks sat at the table and figured out the re-
ports and made comparative statements with the
Ohio elections of previous years. They found
thing especially to rejoice in, yet were not
disposed to feel par.icua ~ discouraged or blue.
They conceded with quiet air that
the republicans had succeeded in
carrying Republican state. The returns from
West Virginia gave them food for pleasant re-
nectlon. The Republican headquarters, on the
other hand, presented a turbulent scene Some

Eustis oratory has oftentimes stirred the
patriotic feeling of his fellow citizens. He
made. himself famous for all time in burst of
prophetic eloquence in nominating the candi-

himself hoarse in telling the
people that the Republicans had gained a won

BASIS OF CALCUL4TTOS ON OHIO.

The basis of calculation adopted in our
kilograms from Ohio is the vote for governor
in 1888 when Hoadly (Dem.1 had 1889
majority. There are 1, 500 election precincts
in the state and with not quite half
the State heard from the Republican gains
exceed eleven thousand. This leaves the
rest of the State, yet to come in, the task of
wiping out the remainder Of the Democratic
majority of 1888, and giving the Repuh-
licans whatever majority the sequel may
prove they have secured. If Hamilton
county has given 1900 Republican majority
and Cuyahoga county 5000, as claimed, it
seems reasonably certain that the Republican
majority in the state will range between ten
and fifteen thousand, with the chances in IA
vor of the latter figure 1t should be borne
in mind that good many
Democratic strongholds are yet TO hear
from, but judging from the res ult
in such supposed stronghold as Hamilton
county, it does not seem probable that their
estimated majority will be much reduced.
AS the Democratic committee did not make
estimates last night the figures we give can
be truly said to be from Republican
sources'' entirely.

not the GLOBE correspondents, i had, nothing
to do with making the facts. and in order to ex-
plain. some introduction is necessary. On the
LIST of August the Republican management be-
gan a poll of the state by road districts,
that is q poll OF 81 every six > miles
of public highway in, the county and
of each separate four or six blocks in towns and
cities That poll was all completed on the goth
OF that month, at q costof $l3, 900 and was paid
for by the committee. 1t was made for the pur-
pose of ascertaining the number Of voters ip the
state rather than TO know how they would vote
As the poll at that date would disclose the actual
number Of legal voters then in the state, they
knew that public opinion had not e1ystallized
sufficiently then TO have enabled each
voter to honestly determine how heh would
cast his vote. This first poll, therefore,
gave them a total voting population nf 49s.OOO.
The constitution, as amended in 1882, requires
residence of sixty days in the county and thirty
days in precinct in which he votes, therefore
poll made after September 4 would disclose
whether any change had been made either by re-
movais for colonization entries for fraud
ulent voting, This poll has been made, and all
cases of removals 10 other counties arrivals in
precincts from other points are reported. This
poll also discoses the and residence of
every doubtful voter. The footings of this poll
show the following condition of the vote:
Democrats. 226, 1865
Republicans 224, 1903
Greenbackers (Butler). ............... 1899
Prohibitionist is ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. 40i2
Doubtful 49, 900
Total 5OO,54
Increase over first POLL. ........ ? $40
This increase of the poll is accounted for on
the g ound that between the first and second
polls 5000 persons in the state have changed
their residences from precincts in which they
were first to other precincts.
1t also shows Democratic plurality of 4,209,
after deducting Greenback, Prohibition ard
doubtful votes. IL also shows the following re-
suits as compared with the vote of 1880:
1880. 1884.
hepuoHCdu SoI ,4O0. S~4,~Oo.
democrat .224, 402. 22o,5Oo
GreenDack.. 49,. 14,SSl. 1883.
1t will be seen that the Democrats and Green
hackers have made gain over their actual votes
in 1850, but have only held their com
pared with the Republican poll of 1880, which
showed Greenba'k vote of over p 900, and the
doubtful list remains very much the same, and
by the same comparison which made Of country
precincts, fad it embraces practically the same
persons.
