seems 70 BE- already settled that the
convention will he held In this city and
that the date will be August II, the
day preceding the state Democratic
nominating convention on August II.
Wheeling is the only place that has so
far been mentioned In connection with
the convention. and the fact that the
stat" convention will be held here the
next day is such good argument In
the Nall CIty's favor that it Is probable
no opposition TO the selection of this
city will be made at the meeting OF the
committee to-day.
1t IS said that the conventions scss-
Ions will be held in the Wheeling park

Mckinley Wins.
Organism Showed Under By
an Overwhelming Majority.

The election was Republican
landslide, and Organism IL defeat
ed by majority sufficiently large
to forever lay the ghost of repu-
diation. By electing Mckinley the
American people have declared
that the present standard of values
must be maintained; and, also, that
they are ready to restore the Re-
publican policy of protection
for American industries. The
cry raised by the Bryanites that
this country was being dominated
by European money power availed
them nothing, and the people sue
ccssfully rcfuted the assertion at
the ballot-box. Another result of
the election is a condemnation of
the methods employed by Bryan
and his followers during the cam
paign. The appeals to the pas
sions and prejudiccs of the masses,
and the attempt to arouse the spir-
it of sectionalism, met with no
response from the people.
Potosi journal. (Potosi, Mo.) 1894-1929, 1896-11-04

Thus the political and business
sky has instantly cleared. The
banded follies and villianies which
men call Organism are swept
away in the wave of popular wrath.
The boarded millions of gold which
fled at the fear Of Bryan's election
will come out of its hiding place
and re-cnter trade channels. De-
feat to the rcpudiators and distruc-
tionists has come in such crushing
shape that they dare never raise
their hand against the nations in
terests and honor again. Repub-
lican institutions have once more
vindicated themselves against the
attacks of domestic.traitors and the
snecrs and jeers of foreign foes.
To-day in every land under the
sun in which an American sojourns
his pride Of citizenship will be re-
vivcd and strengthened. To-day
in every Exchange in the world in
which those properties are bought
and sold, American stocks will rise.

HOW THE STATES WENT.

Maryland gives a Republican
Plurality of $4,000.
Kentucky is on McKinley's side
by about 2,419.
Ohio stands by her own with a
largly increased majority.
Wisconsin is all right with a big
Republican majority.
We hold Indiana by safe plu-
rality.
Massachusetts goes Republican
by over $4,000.
Connecticut comes along with
about 25, 900 plurality for the Win
ming ticket.
Maine, Of course, is with us.
Mckinley carries Sewall's home
precinct.
The Democrats haye Louisiana,
but we don't need her vote.
Utah goes for Bryan.
The Popocrats carry Arkansas
by reduced majority.
New York is in the ranks of the
victors with plurality of 100000.
Michigan is safely Republican
by a good majority.
The Republicans are claiming
Texas.
Pennsylvania majority for Nc
Kinley is over 100000.
! Illinois, the ''doubtfur' State
dispelled all doubt by giving Nc
Kinley.nearly 200, 900 majority, ant

| Alabama is a Bryan State.
California gives her vote to Nc

West Virginia is safely Republi

Bryan carries Colorado by 100,

Washington is for Bryan, Wyom
ing and Montana also.

Potosi journal. (Potosi, Mo.) 1894-1929, 1896-11-04

The expected has happend, with
the difference that it was little
nearer unanimity than was looked
for. Mckinley carried every State
east of the Mississippi River and
north Of the old slavery line, and
Delaware, Maryland, West Vir-
ginia, Kentucky and Tennessee
south of that boundary. West of
the Mississippi River he carried
Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, North
and South Dakota and some of the
Pacific Coast States. In many
States-as New York, Pennsylva-
MIA and Massachusets-the pluiali-
ties went up to figures never touch
ed before.
Strictly speaking, this is not a
Republican victory. 1t is larger,
broader and grander than this.
The Republican party's gallant
allies of the Cleveland, Carlisle and
Palmer element of the Democracy
contributed to this result, and
share in the glory of it. 1t was a
mighty uprising of the intelligence,
the virtue and the patriotism OF
the nation. In no election in the
entire history of the countrs- was
so much involved that was vital
to the honor and interests of the
people and the people rose grandly
to the occasion.
