A Few Comparisons,

The significance of Tuesday, $ elections may best be understood by comparing them with others ol recent years. Last year was recog- nized on all hands as something ab- normal. The Republican rout was so crushing that Republicans them selves found amusement in 1t. They said that there was really less cause for Encouragement than if the vote had been closer, since the people had merely been carried away by a sudden whim, and would soon be back in their old relations. But this year it is noteworthy that every Republican comparison is made with returns of last year, as if they were strictly normal, and every Republican gain over those figures Is treated as cause for con graduation. Those who take this position appear to forget that if the States should vote Tn a Presidential election as they did last year the Republican candidate would get only seventy-nine electoral votes out of Al. They have a wide mar gin to make up before they can be in a position to make even an inter- esting campaign.
 Ohio is State which is never even counted as doubtful by politi- cians figuring on Presidential possi- blities. That Ohio will vote for a Republican President is accepted as one of the axioms on which po- litical calculations are based. Last voar-the tidal wave year the Republican majority in Ohio was 10,969. In 1888 it was 19, ,599. This year it Is supposed to be about 15,- coo. In 1889 Governor Campbell carried the State, owing to the feud between Foraker and his enemies in the Republican party, by 10,S72 of which 7,253 came from Hamilton county. This year, owing to the opposition ofthe Democratic"gang in Cincinnati, Hamilton county has gone just about as heavily the oth- CT way. Here is change of about 14,000 votes in this one county, which is enough of itself to defeat Campbell and give Mckinley a sub- stantial majority.
 In New York Flowers majority is over 10000, This is more than has ever been given before in any election in that State since the war, exceyt when Dix was elected Gov ernor in 1872, Tilden in 1874, Cleve- land in 1882 and the tidal can didates were elected to Congress in 1890. It is more than twice as much as Hill ever received, which effect ually disposes of the theory that there is only one man who can car ry New York.
 Pennsylvania has become again a certain Republican State, but Iowa has done even better for the Democrats than she did in last years landslide, when the Republi- can State ticket was elected by small pluralities, although the Dem ocrats carried the State for their Congressional ticket
 Massachusetts, too, has kept up to last years standard, ,and has done far better than she did in 1889, when Campbell was elected Governor of Ohio and Boise was first elected in Iowa.
 On the whole, balancing gains and losses, theDemocratic situation is at least as good as in 1889, not quite up to 1890, but far better than in any ante Presidential year since the war.-EXaminer.
