NEW YORK, Nov 9.-Now that the cleo
ton of Mckinley and Hobart is an accom-
plished fact, the members of the national
Republican committee at these headquar-
ters are resting from their arduous work
and are feeling very happy.
Expressing themselves as to the victory
and its results, the following interviews
were obtained;
What Garrett A. Hobart Says.
"This is purely victory of the honest
voters" said Mr.. Hobart. 1t is a de-
mand for the continuance of sound
money policy. The Democrats who con-
tributed to the result are entitled to sound
recognition for their services to the people.
1t would not be proper for me to discuss
what should be the policy of the admins
tration. 1t is the duty of the government
to protect and encourage in all practicable
ways the development of American indus
tries, the elevation of home labor and the
enlargement of the prosperity generally of
the people. favor tariff that will fur
nish not only adequate revenue for the ex-
penses of the government, but one that
will protect American labor"

''If it turns out that we have working
majority in the senate" said General
Powell Clayton Of the national Republican
committee, "the country may look for
prompt legislation for the procuring Of
ample revenues to meet all proper public
expenditures The decision of the people
has Of itself established the parity between
all our different kinds of moneys. For
the result too much credit cannot be given
to the hundreds of thousands of patriotic
Democrats who refused to elevate party
above country. / do not presume to ad-
wise Major Mckinley upon his policy, but
am sure he will adopt the wisest and
best course for the greatest number of our
people upon the tariff and other issues"
A Talk with Mr.. N. d. Scott.
Hon. N B. Scott, member of the Re-
publican national committee, said:
~ have never had any doubt about the
sentiment of this country on the money
question There is only one standard the
world over, and that is gold. The seeds
of truth sown during this campaign OF
education will bear fruit during the years
to come, and IL the money question should
ever again be presented to the American
people, and do not believe it ever will
be, the verdict for gold will be more unan.
imous than the present one, II that be pos
sible.
In my judgment, congress should be
convened Immediately after the 4th Of
March, and tariff bill prepared on con
sentative lines should be passed. so as tc
give the government sufficient revenue tt
meet its legislative and administration ex
: penses and adequately protect our manu-
featuring interests. If the Dingley bill
could be passed by the present senate,
think it would be very helpful and woult
temporarily relieve the manufacturing in
terests of this country and prevent thu
landing of large quantities of foreign man
! ufactured goods between now and the 4tl
of March. Every ship will come loaded
from the east with goods manufactured
abroad that should have been made here
and these will be placed In bond befor'
! any change in our tariff law can be eff
footed.
Personally am convinced that hat
there been more facts presented to tn,
voters of this country on the line of til,
tariff our victory would have been NOR
sweeping. believe the wage earners o
this country realize that their future ant
the future of their families depend upon
\ protective tariff.
I "What do l think of the breaking of tn
solid southf There is no part of this coun
try that would be more benefited than tn
south by an administration such as be
lieye Mckinley and Hobart will give, AL
the interests Of such states as Maryland
North Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia
Tennessee, Alabama and Georgia are Ger
tainly closely identified with the principle
of our party.
81 believe that Maryland, West Virgins
and Delaware have come into the Repub
lican party as permanent fixtures witt
anything like d fair election. Virginia ant
Tennessee are as surely Republican a
Pennsylvania. Business will now revive
manufacturing establishments will star
up, and an era of prosperity will open u
to this country after the 4th of March ney
such as we have not seen for the past tire
years. f"
