The Elections.

At 1 O'Clock this morning, sufficient re-
tnrns had not been received TO show how
all the elections had gone. The indica-
tions, however, were that the republicans
had more reason 10 rejoice than the demo
Gratis. 1t was conceded that New York
had gone republican, and the
returns from Massachusetts left
little room for doubt that the repub-
licans in that state were victorious. In
Ohio the republicans were claiming the
election of Mckinley by a majority of
10000
In none Of the foregoing states was the
financial issue pushed to the front 1t
cannot, therefore, be said that the repeal
of the purchasing clause of the Sherman
act had anything to do with bringing
about republican victories
The issue in New York was the fitness
of Judge Maynard for the place of asso-
ciate judge of the court of appeals. He
appears to have been a bigger load than
the democrats could successfully carry
His nomination was a mistake. It would
not have been made had not Sena-
tor Hill insisted upon it, Polit-
A'di 1CdutIS always err Wneu
they present unfit mer for candidates for
the sufrages of the people. Senator
Hill permitted his friendship for his
friend to overrule his Judgment. No
doubt many democrats remained away
from the polls rather than vote ticket
on which Judge Maynards name APP
peared.
Virginia has given the democratic
ticket q handsome majority. In
that sta ,e the silver question was freely
and fully discussed, and the people seem
to have understood it because they voted
rightly. They have sustained the ad-
ministratiOn.
The returns at this writing give little
indication as to how the other states have
gone. The republicans have made some
gains in New Jersey and in Iowa. in the
latter state, however, it is probable that
Gov. Boies is reelected, though his ma
