dications are that they will receive the
electoral votes of every one OF the
southern States. We are enabled to
add to these the electoral votes of New
York, New Jersey and Indiana, as pre-
viously claimed We, furthermore,
claim that Mr.. Cleveland has carried
Illinois and Wisconsin and that Harri-
son has lost some of the far western
States. The people OF the country are
entitled to congratulations upon their
great victory"
