just as clearly and pronouncedly as McKin-
ley S election augurs that he will be in the
Republican column in 1892. the election of
Russell augurs that Massachusetts will be In
the Democratic column in 1892.
Cleveland Plaindealer-There is nothing in
the result to discourage the Democracy or
change their purpose to wage unceasing war
upon tariff extortion and oppression of the
toiling masses until those wrongs are righted-
Mckinley is elected, but Mckinley is doomed
to defeat.
For freedoms battle once begun

purely national issues: that Mckinley's fore

interest in protection and honest money.

their families demanded them to work for
his election. g.
St. Louis st-Dispatch-T he result indi-
Gates that in present issues, with Mckinley
ism at the front, the administration party
cannot hope to recover next year more than
one-third of the Republican states.
st. Louis ReDublic-In its bearings on ma
tionai issues the result of yesterdays cleo
tons Is significant and well defined. 1t
means that next years presidential contest
Will be fought Squarely on the issue of pro-
lection on the one side and tariff reform on
the other And this is a consummation to be
wished devoutly by Democrats.
St. Louis Globe Democrat-Local issues did
the business for the Republicans in the
Northern states IN which they were beaten.
In 1892 the contest will turn on national
issues.
New York Herald-The election Of Mr.
Flower will prove sort of boomerang to
the Democratic party in the presidential
campaign next year. This will be because q
large number of Democrats who believe in
the policies OF their party and under ordinary
circumstances throw their whole weight for
its support will be either lukewarm or go
over to the Republicans with the hope of de-
feating Tammany.
New Orleans Picayune-The people of
Ohio, supposed to be chiefly concerned in
agricultural pursuits. stood up and voted for
the champion of trusts and monopolies and
the father of a tariff which leaves heavy
tax on all that they consume. but gives no
protection to all they have to sell. Obviously
something else than the tariff talked" in the
Ohio campaign.
Cincinnati Enquirer (Dem)-The papers
are too fast in exploiting the election of Mai.
Mckinley as triumph of the principles OF
protection. since the majors campaign was
not perspicuous IN prom citing high tariff,
and since Senator Sherman made the silver
question very prominent and dec Jared the
issue honest money as hot as in the DAYS as
when the Democratic party was much given
to the greenback theory.
Memphis ppeal-Avalanche-The lesson
of the election is that the cause of tariff re-
form is prospecting gloriously. How other
wise may We interpret the result in MaSSa-
chusetts, to say nothing OF Iowa and New
York!

ing on 1892 than all the other results com
bined. They mean that with popular candi
dldates and an aggressive Republican plat
form the Republicans in 1892 can carry every
Northern state beyond doubt except New
York and Indiana.
indianapolis Sentinel-So long as the con
ditions remain as at present, Ohio and Penn
Sylvania may be safely left out of the Demo
cratic calculations. Happily they are moi

London Daily News-It is not easily to
draw moral where most important contests
yield Numerically opposite results. Mckin-
ley victory is a most striking event for
Europe, but may easily be exaggerated or
misunderstood. He was probably elected,
not as Il prOtectionist but as a moderate
opponent OF free silver.
London Charlottesville election of Flower
cannot be considered a counterblast TO the
result in Ohio. because 1t was secured by as
corrupt means as even American political
records can show. All honest people desir-
Gus of decent government wanted the cleo
ton of FasSett, but Tammany hall was too
much for the refOrmers.
London Standard-The result will cause a
waiting policy on the part of the Repub-
lcans, who may hope by october to take adj
vantage OF some Democratic mistake, or
some sudden accession of popularity OH the
part of the government, to reverse the decis-
ion now recorded.
Des Moines State Regisier-The Register
believes in a government by the people, and
therefore accepts the verdict OF the voters of
Iowa without complaint, so far as that
vote was fair aud free expression
of the peoples will. Gov. Boies
was reelected by lavish expenditure

railway employees in regard to the railroad
legislation OF recent years, the betrayal OF
the honest Republicans who voted the Peo-
pies party ticket in good faith, and those In

Boies to attain voice in opposition to prohi
bition.
Kansas City Times dem. Enough of the
smoke of battle has cleared away from the
elections yesterday to demonstrate that tar
if reform will be one of the chief issues
next year. New YOrk's counties and tie
towns of Massachusetts show the growth of
the reform sentiment.
Kansas City Star. Iudependent-The ro-
suits of the election show that the tariff will
be the one supreme issue in the presidential
contest next year, and that the logic of the
situation leaves Grover Cleveland as the
only candidate for the Democracy and tariff
reform. The complete victory of Mckinley
commits the Republican party 10 the most
pronounced McKinleyism.
Denver Rocky Mountain News: The cleo
tons of yesterday make it clear that the
Democratic party will elect the next presi-
dent of the United States.
Cincinnati Commercial Gazette-The vic
tory in Ohio is a victory for the principles
OF protection and reciprocity, and intimates
that it may be taken as an indication of the
hope Ohio entertains that the victory OF
Tuesday for protection and reciprocity may
be duplicated in 1892 for Americas repre-
sentative Republican. champion of protec.
ton and reciprocity, James G. Blaine, of
Maine.
Denver Republican-If any Republican
carry New York next year, President Harri-
son is the man. and we believe that the battle
royal in 1892 will be between Harrison and
Hill. Timer Mckinley won a splendid vic
tory, but he VIII not become a presidential
possibility for 1892 under any circumstances
The great struggle next year will be carried
on in New York and Indiana.
