Senator Sherman said that the election
in Ohio meant Foraker's election to the
Senate. and McKinley's nomination for
the Presidency. He thought all the Re-
publicaus of Ohio would he enthusiastic
for both.
He made passing remarks on the result
in MARYLAND. and said that it was re-
buke to bossism. 1t showed that the peo-
pIe were determined not to tolerate boss
ism any longer. AS to Kentucky, he re-
marked that it had been drifting for
some years toward the Republicans. Brad
lev deserved his success.
As to New York, he said it was natur-
ally Republican. Tuesdays result in
dicated that it could be counted on next
year, while Tammany's influence was
merely local in the city and could not
dominate New York politics. In regard
to Congress, he said it would take action
toward increase in revenues, and that Its
course would be along lines directed by
Republican principles.
Ex-Gov. Foraker attributed the Repub-
lican victory to lack of confidence in the
ability of the Democratic party to scccess-
fully manage the affairs OF this country
Brice, German, Hill and Carlisle are all
condemned and overthrown, and these
four men represent all the features,
nhases and conditions of Democracy.
New Jersey and Massachusetts, have gone
the way of the rest of the country. This
victory settles the contest for next year,
no matter who may be nominated for
President by the Democrats, and no mat
.er on what platform, The country will
lot have anything more to do with De-
mocracy. You will not see another DEM
ocratic administration at Washington in
40 wears. l don't know who will be our
candidate for President, but Ohio will be
for Gov. Mckinley. His State has done
so grandly in this contest that we have
positive claims on the National Conven-
ton.
If Tuesdays elections mean anything,
they show that beyond peradventure,
on March a, 1897, Republican President
will send his nominations of Cabinet Of
ficers to a Republican Senate, and on the
first Monday of December, in that year,
his message will be read to a Congress,
Republican in both branches, pledged,
ready and competent to undo Democratic
evils and restore good government to the
-Pittsburg Times.
Birthday Anniversary.
Among the many pleasant events of life
