perfectly well founded This is the Trib-
une's editorial:
victoryl The figures justify our belief. Blaine
and Logan are elected by the vote of New York.
Indiana and the Southern states Of which hopes
are entertained can only swell an electoral vote
already sufficient This belief is based upon the
returns collected by the associated press
from every voting precinct in the state
except IL, which we have carefully verified as
far as possible by special dispatches. The pre-
cincts not heard from gave a plurality Of 7S6
for President Garfield In these scattering
precincts there have been no Democratic
gains for some time past, and 1t is
impossible that there can be in the twelve small
precincts remaining such Democratic gains as to
overcome the present Republican plurality. As
Stunning the accuracy of the associated press dis
patches and tabuiation, the election of Blaine
and Logan can no longer be matter
Of reasonable doubt. But the dispatche g
also indicate that the Republicans have carried
all the other Northern states except Connecticut,
New Jersey and possibly Indiana and have a
probability of success in West Virginia and
Florida which would insure the election of
Blaine and Logan even without the vote OF New
York"
SAYS CHAIRMAN JONES.
1--WE have carried New York, Indiana and
every Northern state except New Jersey and
Connecticut" said Chairman B. F. Jones, of
the Republican national committee, at IL

Blaine is elected" Mr.. Jones had been in
Dearly all the evening, and had received the
reports from all but twenty-three Of the cleo
lion districts in the entire state.
III these figures are correct" said he, looking
,ver a long column Of returns, we have carried
The state by from 400 to 500 plurality, with
about twenty three election districts to hear
rom. These districts gave Gen. Garfield large
pluralities. but how they will do in this election
Is Of course, query. My impression Is, how
EVER, that they will increase Mr.. Blaines plural
tty to at least 1000. am confident that MOTH
ing but fraud can prevent our success" /
