REASONS WHY.
Senators German and DoIph on the
Result, OF the Election.


WASHINGTON, Nov. 6. Senator Cor
man, in an interview here to-day, said
the victory of democracy was the ex-
preston of the people against radical
measures such as had been brought
forth during this congress. The sena.
tor was asked if he thought the victory
would be lasting, If it would give the
democrats the next president. at de.
pends upon their course. If they are
courteous and conservative they may
expect long lease of power"
Senator Dolph, in explana ton of the
result of the election, said to-day: sit
was an Off year and tue friends of the
tariff were inactive. while those on the
other side were working with all their
might. The manufacturers, he said
got what they wanted when the Me
kinlcy bill passed, and they did not care
any more about 1t. The result would
have been different ii the passage oi the
bill had not been delayed until Just be-
fore election. The artificial increase IN
the prices made in some commodities,
without the slightest reason, also had its
effect"

SPIRIT OF THE HOME PRESS.


Deep Creek Herald: Here we are two
days after election 'in the soup" so to
speak. A number OF the county
offices will be filed 10y good democrats,
and our representative proper is de
fcated in the race. No republican need
ask how this came about for they all
know. Twenty, at least, staunch
co republi cans failed to even snow their
faces on election day, much less cast n
vote. some, Of course, are excusable,
because of emergencies arising but the
majority could have been here and voted
and not lost time valued at more than
$1,000. We don't like this type of re-
publicans.

BEGIN TO REALIZE IT
Illinois Republicans Know
How They Are Hit.
DEMOCRATIC STATE TICKET WINS
Her Congressional Delegation Con-
tains Fourteen Democrats to
Six Republicans.

CHICAGO, Nov. AT last returns from
the state of Illinois become sufficiently
complete TO announce decisively the re-
suit on the state ticket. The democrats
have won, and Edwin S. Wilson. of Ol-
ney, is elected state treasurer by H. 43o
and Henry Rssb. of Belleville, superin-
tendent of public instructions by 80 Ia
No compilations have been made YET on
the trusteeship of the University oil llil'
nois, but the indications are that the
three democratic nominees are also
eiected by a slight majority.
Not until to-day have the republicans
Of Illinois realized the full extent oil ,he
avalanche which has obliterated the old
time majority in the state. Fuller re-
turns to-day showed that in addition to
the democratic gains heretofore All
nounced In tho congressional districts
Congressmen Payson and Hill have also
been defeated, and Snow and stewart,
democrats, elected. Both congressman
Hill and Payson have telegrnphed the
Associated Press coDceding their defeat
the former by $50 and the latter by ooo
TO 700. This makes the congressional
delegation from Illinois stand fourteen
democrats and six republicans. The
congressman eected are as follows:
First-TAYJoR, rep.
Second--McCAss, dem.
Third-DURBURow, dem.
Fourth--NEwBERRY,d dem.
Fifth HOPKINS, rep.
Sixth-HIrr, rep.
Seventh-H ESDERsoS, rep.

Fifteenth-BUsgy, dem.
Sixteenth FIrHiAS, dem.
Seventeenth-LANE, dem.
Eighteenth-FoRaAS, dem.
Observation-Disclosures. dem.
Twentieth-SMiTH, rep.
The great delay in arriving at an au-
thentic conclusion in this state has been
due to the lateness OF the returns, owing
TO the tremendous amount OF scratch
ing. All estimates ON which previous
reports were based were valueless in
view of the political tidal wave which
swept over the state and which Is un-
precedented in the history of Illinois.
