about the recent election be said. AIN
well satisfied with the result i'll my own
district. | galued 2600 votes during a
campaign which lasted but three weeks.
That was even more than | had any
right to expect. 1t is consequently very
gratifying to me.
'What do you think OF the result IN
tae statef'' was asked.
1.-The Republican !ictory on the state
ticket was splendid. The unfairness OF
the eerrymauder was manifested most
clearly by the recent election. The Re
publicans carried the state by a popular
majority OF over - 900, while the Demo
crats secured two-thirds OF the represen-
tatives In congress and the Republicans
one third. This shows the effects of the
gerrgmander very clearly
''IIgs the cause of protection suffered
any by the recent Democratic victory
throughout the countCy?''
Protection is stronger to-day than it
ever was. and Il Will continue to grow in
favor. The tariff bill which was made
the issue during the campaign was but
three and ope-half weeks old when the
e election occurred, aud many of its pro-
visions have not yet gone into effect.
The bill was misunderstood ana shame
fully Incorporated. The latter was
done by the importers, many of whom
are not citizens of the United States and
ars free Traders
''What will be the future Of the bill?'
al am sure that it will win in the end.
All great measures have met with tenn
porary defeat. The emancipation of
slaves and the passage of the fourteenth
and fifteenth amendments to the consti-
tuition may be pointed to as examples.
The same Issue will come to the front in
1892, and it will then be better UNDER
stood. Our defeat this year Is not greater
than it was in 1882, two wears after Gar
field was elected. The Republicans have
not had "A majority in the house OF repre-
sentatiyes but twice since 1877. In this
congress We have tweEty-siN members
from the South. while in the next there
will be but two or three. We have little
to fear in the future II we have free
ballot and fair COUNT
