The National tribune., 1896-11-05

does not meet the approval of the American
people. The Gold standard leaders nave
already called meeting of the Democrats OF
the County for the reorganization OF the
County Democracy.
Iowa goes Republican by $4,000 plurality for
Mckinley. The Republican Congressional
ticket throughout is reelected by vastly in-
creased majorities. The Republicans have had
a solid delegation from Iowa in Congress for
the past two years, and renominated the in
cumbents They are all elected.
KANSAS.
This State is in doubt. The Republicans
elect TO Congress. Broderick. Curtis and Harris.
and the fusion forces elect Simpson. Botkin.
Vincent. Ridgeley and Mccormick. The Legis-
lature is anti-Republican.
KENTUCKY.
Sound money has won signal victory in
Kentucky. The State has gone for Mckinley
by large and more decisive vote than that
given Gov. Bradley and the Republican ticket
year ago. 1t is believed that 10000 plurality
for Mckinley is safe estimate Hart County,
a Democratic stronghold, the home of Gen.
Simon Bolivar Buckner gave Mckinley plu
rality of 81. In this county Palmer and Buck
ner got less than 100 votes. Louisville has
given Mckinley from 10, 600 to Il, 900 majority,
aud Jefferson County, claimed confidently by
the Bryanites has given Mckinley 500 major
ity. Chairman Sommers, of the Bryan COM
mittee, coRcedes the State to Mckinley by
10000. Chairman Roberts. of the Republican
COMMITTEES, says it viii reach 25.e0 The City
of Louisville and Jefferson County, with all
but two precincts, give Mckinley plurality
of II $780, and elected a Republican Mayor and
other Republican officials by a majority a little
less than that given the Presidential electors.
The greatest surprise is the defeat of w. c. Z.
Breckenridge for Congress in the Seventh Dis
trict. He was the candidate of both the Re-
puhlicans and the Sound Money Democrats.
He ran slightly behind the Republican ticket,
indications being that Mckinley will carry the
district while Breckenridge will lose by from
500 to 1000. The Republicans have elected
Congressman in six districts, and several are
in doubt. Those elected are Hunter in the
Third, Evans in the Fifth, Dawson in the
Eighth. Pugh in the Ninth, Langley in the
Tenth, and Colson in the Eleventh.
LOUISIANA.
Bryan carried Louisiana by about 10000
and the city of New Orleans by 10000 All
the Silver Democratic Congressman are elected,
but Roman, in the First; Lengdre in the
Second and Beattle, in the Third Districts, all
National, on sugar.
The returns indicate Republican plurality
in the State of 46 600. As expected, Mex inIey
carried Bath, the home OF Mr. Arthur Sewall,
and he also carried Mr. SewalPs own ward.

MASSACHUSETTS.
Mckinley carried the State by at least 1875,
900 majority, and George Fred Williams i
showed under by about The same figures Th
total vote OF Massachusetts, will be about 400,
600 in round numbers. Contrary to the gen
eral ex pectations, both of the Presidential can
didates ran ahead of the State ticket. 1t ha.
been expected that Gen. Wolcott's popularit,
would give him decided lead over even th
National candidate, but his vote fell bebin'
that of Mckinley, az Williamss vote fell be
hind that of Bryan. The Republicans get i

while Barrows Republican, was returned froI
the Tenth District by plurality of about ,006
although that district is normally Democrat
on a straightout party vote. The Republica
vote OF the State shows net gain Of abou
80 per cent over that OF 1892, while the Dems
cratic vote shows net loss of more than 6
, per cent. Mckinley carried Boston by m,
iority of 1862 with il precincts to be hear
