s'PROTEOTlNG THE RETURNS,

GIVE to Lambs.,,

INDIANAPOLIS, November 7.-Attorney-
General Kitchener, on behalf of the Re-
publican Committee, this afternoon tele-
graphed to New York inquiring in regard
to the correctness of the report accredited
to Senator German, alleging the discovery
OF errors in the returns from Kings
county, which when rectifed will give
New York State to the Democrats. Col.
Dudley at P. NJ. sent the following to
General Harrison direct:
There is positively nothing in it. Our
people are guarding the returns from
Kings county and other precincts and
counties. with absolute vigilance. Fraud
is barely possible, but will not be per-
mitted if the most perfect espionage by
honest, brave men can prevent it. The
State is now ours. The latest returns
are sure to give you $1,000. If there is
any change it will be more.
MORE OF THE SAME KIND.
New YORK, November THE Re-
| following statement:
REPUBLICAN NATIONAL HEADQUARTERS
| November 9TH.
| In the view of the claim promul-
gated by the Democratic National Com
|
of New York for Cleveland, and that
they are sending kilograms to their local
committees all over the State to that
effect, the Republican National Com
mittee have sent out to the
Chairman of each Republican
County Committee of the State the fol-
lowing telegram: Although full returns
from every county in the State show that
New York is safely for Harrison by up
wards of $4,000 plurality, the Democrats
are telegraphing their County Chairmen,
claiming the State and urging them to
pay attention to returns. See to it that
the returns are thoroughly guarded until
officially canvassed. Prevent frauds at
all hazards. In the case of necessity
employ counsel. Notify US of any tam
pering with returns. Communicate
with your town committees at once, if

The Comedy of a Campaig Il .

There is both tragedy and a comedy
side to a political campaign. The last
element enters into the count when the
polls are closed, the votes counted and
the appalling consciousness settles upon
the one or the other OF the sets of the
contestants that their cake is dough
The candidate is the modern Gladiator,
and pangs just as poignant as those
which surged through the breast OF
Byron's Dying Gladiator agitate the
breasts OF the defeated. In the one case
there is physical agony and death. In
the other, throes of wounded pride that
are worse than bodily scars, and that
political thanatopsis which replaces
death by political extinction.
We can we'll sympathize with the blank
misery of man who has identified him
self with a noble cause, and who finds
himself stricken down in the house of his
friends, his fine schemes OF public good
discounted and his pride humbled in the
dust. Perhaps the most conspicuous
instance of this tragedy OF politics &C.
Cured in the career OF Horace Greeley,
who retired from the Presidential contest
of 1872 to die.
But We propose to deal with the lighter
phases of politics, and to give passing
word to the comical aspects of cam
paign. There is your devoted partizan,
who knows that his man is bound to win.
He leads up to the fateful day with all
sorts of extravagant predictions of the
result. He is the Sir Oracle Of all the
circles he frequents. There is no limit to
what he knows as to the intentions OF the
individual, of townships, cities, counties,
States and even the nation. He is gifted,
in his minds eye, with a never failing
prescience. Long before the opposing
cohorts meet in battle array he knows
every disposition of the field, and has
every squadron appointed to its proper
place. The idea of defeat never once
enters his mind.
The election over. how diligently this
ingenious man is on the alert He faces
the bulletin boards OF the newspapers
with the firm faith that the kilograms

think that he is right. He is OF the
opinion that the city of Los Angeles will
number 100000 people in year from
to-day, and that in five years the figures
will have swollen to 100000. This is an
imposing total, but it is warranted by
our phenomenal growth during the pas

TABULATED returns from all the pre-
cincts of Los Angeles city, according to
the figures OF the election officers, will
be found on another page of the HERALD
this morning. These returns show Re-
publican plurality on the head of the
ticket of about one thousand three hun
dred. This will be materially reduced
when the Supervisors recount the vote
and give the Democratic candidates the
votes enormously thrown out by the cleo
ton officers. It will probably reduce the
plurality to less than one thousand.

SAN Francisco, November Tt is ex-
pected that the canvass of the vote of the
city of San Francisco will be completed
by tomorrow afternoon. The Republican
State Committee estimates that the Dem
ocratic plurality in the city will be about
five thousand, but contend that outside
counties will furnish Republican
plurality of fourteen thousand
and that the Republican National
| ticket will be elected by nine thou
sand. plurality. The Prohibition vote as
far as canvassed falls below that of 1884.
NJ. ID. De Young, Chairman of the Sub.
Committee telegraphed to Chairman
Quay tonight, that all the Pacific Coast
States bad gone for Harrison, and Cali

State Committee does not vary from the
one made earlier in the day, of a prob
able Democratic plurality of 1000 to
5000 in the State.

THERE appeared in the HERALD YES
terday very interesting article from the
Chicago Inter Ocean containing an inter-
view with an enthusiastic Californian on
this State and its prospects. So far as the
opinions and statements went in regard
to the upper portion of the State they
were in the main correct, but when we
come to those referring to this section
they were not 80 near the
line of fact. The climate of
San Francisco is not Objectionable
so far as people of robust health are
concerned, but for children, invalids,
and persons of weak constitution from
any cause it is rather robustious during
the greater part of the year. Then there
is no doubt that oranges are grown to
some slight extent in the Sac
ramento valley, but that indus
try will never be paying proposition
in the counties north of Tehachepi
psss. As to the prosperity of the two
sections of California, now that the citi-
zen of the Bay City has challenged the
comparison, there is no comparison to be
made, so overwhelmingly greater is the
growth of the Southern counties than is
the central and northern portions. The
vote cast yesterday will be the best evil
dence of this claim. When the results
come to be summoned up it will appear
that the lower counties are increasing in
population three times as rapidly SIS any
of those around San Francisco. The
Assessors valuations of property show
even larger ratio of increase in our
wealth.

COLUMBUS. November 7.-Interest in
the election news continues. Judge
Thurman had nothing to say to CORE
spondents this evening when asked for
an opinion. The State Committee are
still receiving returns from the State and
figuring up gains and losses. The Re-
publicans are claiming a plurality of
from 5000 to SO, 900 and place their esti-
mate on more or less complete returns
from about half the counties in the State.
On the other hand the Democratic Com.
mittee says complete or conservative
estimates on the returns from % out of S8
counties give evidence Of q Democratic
gain of little over 5000, and if this
erratic gain continues, which thew
scarcely dare hope, they will carry the
State. At any rate they say there is no
doubt they have cut down the Republi.
can plurality to small figures. For Con
gress the Democrats say their losses bal
ance their gains, and there is as vet no
certainty that they have not made a net
gain. On the other hand the Republ;-
cans claim net gain of one, having lost
in the tenth and gained in the seventh
