A BLOW AT ALEADER.
THIS IS HOW JOHN DALzELL ACCOUNTS
FOR THE RESULT.


Mr. Finn Says Everybody Was Not Sa'Is.ed
With Observation-Disclosures Gourley Sur
0rised. but He Refuses to Express an
Opinion on the Result.
Congressman John Dalzell was discovered
on the street receiving the congratulations
of friends When asked for his opinion he
said he wished to be deliberate and would
write what he had to say. isviews of this
election follow:
PENNSYLVANIA Is a Republican State, as we all
know. by $1,000 majority. When, therefore. it
elects 4 Democratic Governor it is verv appa-
rent that that Governor was elected by Repub-
lican votes. No man anywhere can, and no fair
minded man VIII claim Pattisons election as a
Democratic victory. This is especially true
when the further fact is remembered that ex-
elusive Of the Governor the entire Republican
ticket has been elected. For a result OF this
kind there must be Il reason. The reason is too
plain 10 talk about. Every man knows that the
issue in the campaign Just closed was not pc
tween Republicans and Democrats; it was be-
tween RepubEC2nism and QUayism. The great
Republican party OF Pennsylvania has risen in
Us might and declared against the men and
