The Illinois Election Surprise.

VIEWS OF REPRESENTATIVE TowNSHEND.
. The unexpected turn OF the tide in the Illinois
senatorial contest caused by the election of
republican member of the legislature in place
OF Shaw, deceased, was the almost universal
topic of discussion in political circles to-day.
There are quite number of Illinois democrats
here. ana they are compelled to admit that the
republicans Outgeneraed them completely.
Representative Townshend, who has just ar
rived rom Illinois. says the republicans, under
the pretenGe that they were not making cam
vass, quietly notified oil their voters to turn
out. The democrats, suppOsing they had a
waik-over. took things easily. AS 1t was the
busy plantfn. season many Of them did not go
to the polls NO, sir" added Col. TownShend,
in reply to question, "tlle result does not indi-
cate any dissatisfaction with the administra-
ton, for there is no such dissatisfaction among
tue democrats Among our people the admin
istration grows stronger every day. 1t is popu-
lar, and its course is heartily endorsed. If there
is any grumbling that there is too much delay
In filling offices 1t is not among the democrats
of Illinois"
Mr.. Van Pelt, Of Chicago, a leading democrat
OF that city. also says that the unexpected dem
ocratic defeat cannot be traced to any feeling of
GOODNESS towards the administration.
Most Of tho Illinois democrats here, among
them MIR. TownsheEd think that the senator
snip Is not yet lost 10 the democratic. They be-
lieve that there arc several republicans in the
legislature who will not consent to support
Gen. Logan. But some of the shrewdest give up
the fight.
