LARGEST DAILY CITY CIRCULATION,
DENOGRAGFa,S LOSS.

Returns from Tuesdays elections show Republican victories in every State except Mississippi and Virginia Democrats have reduced this pluralities in many States, and Republicans have gained in others. Both Mary land and Kentuc. y, where Democrats have divided, have gone Republican and, it is thought, have elected Re publican Legislatures. New York and Ohio, too, have.elected q majority of the members of the General Assembly Republicans. This is the most discourag;ng feature of the defeats. It means that Senators Gibson, of Maryland, Blackburn, of Kentucky, Hill, Of New York and Rrice, of Ohio, all Democrats, will be displaced by Republicans. Deleware is yet to elect one Senator and Utah two. Of these the Re pnblicans are sure of two-t these from Utah while the other is in doubt.
 These gains will give the Re publicans a safe majority in the Senate of the United States after March 1, 1897, the time the new Senators from New York, Ohio and Maryland take their seats.

TIE cyclone of Republican victory that swept the country Tuesday will be valuable lesson to the Democratic party and might be the means of saving it from defeat at the Presidential election next year. Sound money was the battle cry or the Republicans and with it they won. Upon this same policy rein forced by demand for 2 tariff for revenue only, the Democratic party can route it's vaunting enemy, re- capture the lost territory, and gain lasting victory. A united party on "sound money and tariff for revenue only" platform is all that is necessary.
