THERE is no other name for what
the Democratic party stood for in this
campaign than "Bryanism'. What
ever and all that that signifies has
been placed upon it's merits and the
battle has been fought out between it
and the. principles the Republican
party stood for and has stood upon
during the last four years. The result
was a decisive victory for the Republi-
can party and a vindication of its
principles and policies.

s Louisville, Nov. AT this writing
both Democratic and Republican COM

Kinley and YerkeS have gained the vic

In the same precincts the majority Of

498. The Democrats are claiming gains

Baltimore. Nov 7.-McKinley has
carried MARYLAND beyond the shadow
of a doubt, the only question to be set
teled being the size of his majority.
With practically complete returns from
the city he has majority here of
about $500, while from the state, scat
tering returns indicate an additional
surplus of $500, making his total ma
iority in the state about 10000. There
is no reason to believe that the final
figures will very greatly from those
given above. Chairman Vandiver Of
the Democratic state central commit
tee, admits Bryan's defeat in the state.
The Democrats may be considered
to have a trif1e the better Of the argu-
ment. Ex-Governor J. b. McCreery,
chairman of the Democratic state cam
paign committee said: Bryan and
Beckham have carried Kentucky by
safe majorities. The Democrat nave
elected nine out of eleven congress
men, including Gilbert, of the Eighth;
Kehoe. of the Ninth, and Rhea, Of the
Third districts"
Chairman Leslie Combs, Of the Re
publican state committee, said: "Of-

ties have been received. In these coun-
ties Beckham, for governor, has gained

Yerkes has gained 1902 over Taylor in

MK1NLEY PLURALITY IN NEW YORK.

BrYan-Bryan's Big Gsain.

State Gives Mckinley About $50, 600 Over
3ryan-Bryan' Big Gain.
New York. Nov. AT this writing
the Indications are that President Nc
Kinley has carried New York state by
a majority over Bryan of about $780,
900, compared with a Republican ma
jority in the last presidential election
Of 268, 469.
The total vote in the city Of New
York is approximately 10000 larger
than it was in 1896, and up the state
the increase is about 10000. In the
city Bryan wiped out the plurality Of
$4,000, which Mckinley had four years
ago, and took on a plurality for him
self of about $4,000, Up the state Nc
Kinley barely held the vote which he
had in 1896, the added vote going to
BRYAN. The vote Cor r. r. Odnu- T~
Republican nominee for governor Is
considerably larger than that for Nc
Kinley.
The election passed off quietly both
In the city and state. There were no
more than the usual number of arrests
of men accused Of attempting illegal
voting at city precincts and where the
accused made it clear that they were
innocent, they were permitted to re
turn to the polling places and vote
without further mOleStatiOn. Returns
from congressional districts are scat
tering and incomplete.

Washington, Nov. Representa-

at II o'clock declined to make an esti-
mate on the complexion of the next
house. He said the returns received
up to that time were too incomplete
to determine the result SO far as the
house was concerned. It is practically
conceded here, however, that the house
is Republican by a working majority.

Legislature of 1000.
From the Baltimore Sun.

Speaker Lloyd Wilkinson, of the House
of Delegates of Maryland, says;
''Without desiring to involve myself in
any newspaper controversy, l would like
to ask space in your columns to say word
in defense of the late Legislature. 1t is
an easy matter to criticise, and if one has
no regard for right and justice, and no
care as to what may be the result of their
statements, it is possible for them to do
a great deal of harm. "A great daily
paper, going as it does into every home,
and having its readers at every freside, is
in position of great responsibility. 1t
can tear down or it can build up. With
a stroke of the pen they can make or mar
the best of men, This very power pos
sessed by them makes the responsibility
the greater The Democratic party in
this State is exceedingly unfortunate, in
that there is not within our State a
single daily paper in touch either with
the party managers or the great mass of
Democratic voters. Papers that have
heretofore been Democratic have grown
SO accustomed to criticising and condemn
ing that they seem utterly unable to give
credit where it is undeniable due.
81 do not claim that the late Legisla-
ture was without fault, or that it was
guiltless of sins of both omission and COM
mission, but what l do complain Of is
general denunciation of its actions without
citing instances to justify such criticism.
From general statements made in por-
ton of the daily press, many people
throughout this State have been led to be-
lieve the Legislature was composed of an
extremely corrupt body of men. That
this does great injustice to a large number
of representative citizens of our State |
think shall be able to clearly demon
strate.
ga charge of this character is SO seri-
GUS, involving as it does the character and
reputation Of individual citizens, that no
person or publication is justified in making
it without the very strongest evidence.
l recognize the right Of the public press
to criticise public officials. To do so is
to safeguard the peoples interest. But
the criticism should be just and sustained
by the facts.

Agent Fred w, McCaull is always
smiling and pleasant, but last Saturday
afternoon the smile on Fred's face was
SO much broader than common that for
a time the boys were at sea as to the
cause of his .elation. Some of them sug-
gested that perhaps he had been made
general manager of the entire 20" sys-
tenn, while others thought Fred had
fallen heir to all of Coils p. Hunting
toms millions and had just received a
message telling him of his good fortune.
Finally, however, DR.. Barger came along
and set the fellows right. He said that
It was just as pretty and bright an 81
