NO LIGHT IN THE WEST.
The Story of the Democratic Waterloo

overwhelming, ano in the southwest
Republican gains are reported of such
magnitude' as to suggest almost q row.
olution.
The only exceptions to the rule APP
pear to be in California and Nevada.
In the former, the Democratic can
didate for Governor, (Budd) is APP
parcntly in advance of Estee, Republi-
can, although the rest of the Republi-
can ticket seems to be certain of cleo
tion. In Nevada, the silver party
which exists as party in that State
only, has to all appearances beaten the
Republican, Democrats and POpulists,
electing it's State ticket and Congress-
men.
Ohio has given the largest Republi-
can majority in it's history, wiping out
not only McKinley's plurality of 85,-
900. but going above the high water
mark set by John Brough III 1868 of
10l, 900. 1t is thought that official re-
turns will show a Republican plurality
Of 140,000 to 100000.
Colorado has repudiated Populist
doctrines and swung back into the Re-
publican column, electing the full Re-
publican ticket and both Congressman.
Kansas. too, has returned to the Re-
publican faith and Jerry Simpson is
buried in the landslide along with the
other Populist candidates. Wiscon-
sir has reversed her verdict of two
years ago and has elected Republi-
can State government and nine out of
ten Congressman of the same political
faith.
In Illinois the Democrats have met q
crushing defeat. Not only has the
State shown preference for Republi-
10000 or $4,000 plurality, but the
Congressional delegation has been turn
ed over almost bodily'to the Republi-
cans, William M. Springer going down
with his party In the seventeenth dis
trict. The city of Chicago, too, has
cast $4,000 plurality against the Demo
Gratis.
The Legislature Is Republican on a
joint ballot and the result is u COM
plete reversal of the political situa-
tion.
Indiana is in the fall fashion, too.
The returns are incomplete, but there
seems little reason to doubt that the
Republican State ticket will have
from 10000 to 25,000 plurality and the
victors will gain four congressman.
1t is significap. of the general upset
that the election of Hen. VIM. Holl'
man in the fourth district is more
than doubtful and the Republicans
claim that the official count will retire
the great objector from the national
legislature.
Minnesota is Republican by 10000 tc
10000 plurality.
Michigan gives Republican plurail
ity of 10000 and unless the official
count changes the outlook greatly
the entire Congressional delegation
will be Republican. Practically the
same may be said of Iowa, although
the Democrats OF the Hawkeye State
have q prospect OF saving one Congress
man, Hayes.
The State OF Washington IS Reppbli
can by 5000 to 10000 plurality includ
ing the Congressman.
Idaho's contribution to the landslide
is 900 plurality and the Congress
