The Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1868-1895, 1893-11-15

Of $4,000 and two-thirds of both branches
of the legislature, Mckinley has won the
most decisive victory recorded in Ohio
since the civil war. 1t has been won on
national issues. Although Mckinley was
running for reelection as governor, he
made state affairs secondary to protec-
ton and honest money in all his
speeches, numbering 10.
1t would not have been a surprise two
weeks ago, but after the action of con-
gress there seemed to have been such
reaction that the overwhelming vote is a
surprise. The democrats did not allow
the contest to go by default, but made
a most vigorous fight with harmonious
working forces. Ex-Governor Campbell
canvassed the state for Lawrence T.
Neal all last week and the democratic
committee was hopeful after congress
reached decisive action The repub-
Hcan managers would have expected
such results two weeks ago, but they
were astonished tonight. Governor Nc
Kinley was not surprised at the result.
He has expected it all along and felt
confident that the impressions of the
change of conditions would not be over
come by the campaign efforts for reac-
ton.
The weather was pleasant all over
the state and there was a full vote Of
over 100000. The decisive results of
former years have been because of the
small vote, those Of one party or the
other not turning out But the voters
were out today all over the state, and
Mckinley has a majority over all, with
democratic. prohibitionist and populist
tickets opposed to him. This is the first
majority over all any state candidate
has had since Fosters election just after
Garfield's death, in 1881. Blaine had a
majority in 1884, but the republican
state ticket then had only a plurality.
Last year the democrats elected the
presidential elector and republican plu-
rality was then 1912. McKinley's plu-
rality in 1891 was 21,511. In 1880 the re-
pubicans had 10000 plurality and in
1889 the democrats elected Governor
Campbell by 1882, when there was a
small vote. With the result so decis-
i've, the figuring on district and county
tickets has not been so close as in closer
years, but it is conceded that the re-
publicans have gained in districts and
counties everywhere by the local tickets
being carried through with the vote for
Mckinley.
The republicans are apprehensive of
one part Of their victory. The legisla-
ture elected today does not elect a
United States senator and il is over
two-thirds republican, the strongest
since the war. With such a large work
Ing majority they fear such legislation
by city members as may lead to de-
feat two years hence, when another SEN
ator is to be selected that choose Sena-
tor Brice's successor.
ITO General Manager Associated Press:

CHARLES DICK,

tee"
No more doubt being held even by
opponents. the headquarters are being
abandoned and meetings held nominal L
ing Mckinley for president in speeches
by Boutelle, DOlliver, Hoar, Chairman
Dick and others.
Chairman Seward has no estimates
but claims that the rural vote will re-
duce present claims. He does not claim
anything on state or legislative tickets
but says it is an 'off year." and the
party in power has been held RESPONSE
BILE for everything.
Before 9 o'clock the overflow from re-
publican headquarters rushed into the
state house and took Governor McKin-
ley by storm. Mckinley would not talk
on the results and said it would not do
TO estimate the extent Of the result till
after midnight when rural precincts
could be compared with those of the
towns and cities.
Chairman Seward Of the democratic
state committee was seen after mid
night. He had no statement to make
cratic losses continued the complete re-
for Mckinley. Chairman Seward was
at the time figuring with Col. w. A.
Taylor. democratic candidate for lieu
tenant governor, and other democratic
candidates and managers who are con-
cerned in the concession of some OF
the offices, they laughingly secOnding
Meals motion to make IL unanimous.
