with Senator Kenna, of West Vir

burg, on behalf of Erwin Davis, Of
New York. He was asked:
"To what do you attribute the
late Democratic wave that swept
across the eountry?'
"Of course there are causes in GER
tain localities that / do not know
aught about, but to modest out
slider it looks like general collapse,
especially in Ohio"
THE ADMINISTRATION INFLUENCE.
"Do you think that the Presiden-
tial Administration had anything to
do with it?"
Undoubtedly it cut quite fig
ure. Right along people have been
busy contrasting the Harrison regime
with that of his professors, and
assure you that it has been very
favorable to Democracy. This was
especially true in the general AID
ministrative features, appointments,
and especially in the Pension Blu
reau matter. At this period of the
Cleveland Administration there had
not been ripple. Mark the differ
ence in the present one. But can't
say just how much this effected the
results, but it was powerful fac
tor"
Can it be considered a blow at
the Administrations"
81 should imagine SO. You know
Senator Sherman said in one of his
speeches in your State just before
election that the results, whatever
they were, would show how the
present Government stood with the
people"
What will be the effect of the
defeat of the Republicans"
ut will have a great deal to do
with modifying the action Of the
majority in both houses. Before
the elections the Washington Post, a
strong Republican organ, was daily
filled with interviews with leading
Republicans indicating the course
to be pursued by that party in
Congress this winter. giving all
sorts of subjects with all sorts of ex-
travagant representations. Ever
since the election that paper has
been trying to account for the cy-
clone. BY the way, must com
ment on one thing, and that is the
nature of the explanations by Re
publicans of their defeat in Ohio.
In all of the discussions it seems to
be little remarkable that they
have nothing
TO SAY ABOUT MR.. CAMPBELL.
There has been a general impress
sion that he had great deal to do
with the result of the campaign in
Ohio. The studied omission of his
name from the factors in the recent
election by the Republicans, reminds
me of what venerable retired Pres
byterian preacher said to me about
the Fitz j ohm Porter case. After
listening to all the evidence before
both Houses on the case, of which
he was studied listener, looking it
over and also the records, he was
satisfied that Stonewall jackson was
more to blame for the disaster than
anybody. So with Campbell and
the victory in Ohio"
