sweeping Democr ,tic victories. Mr.. Cleve-
land was elec ed President, and Demo
cratic House of Representatives was chosen.
Some Of the States which heretofore have
been soidly in the Republican column gave
substantial Democratic victories. Some of
the features Of the election were the very
great majorities rolled up by New York and
Brooklyn, the cutting down of majorities in
the strong Republican counties of the in
terror, and the great change in The voting
generally throughout the Western States.
In the Sosth the Third party cut a sorry
figure, their most crushing defeat perhaps,
being in Georgia where Tom Watson was
beaten by 1000 by his Democratic oppo-
nent Not third party Congressman was
elected in Georgia. In South Carolina only
one district is in doubt and there the
chances favor the Democrats. In Florida
famous for its Ocala platform and agitation,
the Third parry was in the hopeless minor
ity. In Arkansas. the Third party fusion
with the Republican, had no effect what
ever on Democratic success. In Mississippi.
