THE ELECTIONS.

lnE ELEVIIUNS.
Nine states held elections last Tuesday, with
the usual result
Ohio remains in the Hanna column Myron
T. Herrick was elected governor by an incieas-
ed vote over 1901. His majority over Tom l..
Johnson was fully 100000. Cuyahoga county
alone gave Republican majority of 5000.
Two years ago, this same county gave Dem
oc-at majority of 100 over Governor Nash
Mark Hanna got the Legislature by big ma
jority. 1t was Marks fight, and he won with
out scratch. Tom L. johnson "also ran, !"
but the Cleveland Democrats knitted him. They
didn't want any Johnsonism or Organism in
theirs, and they proposed to teach the "Popo-
crats' lesson that they will not soon forget
Next year will show that the lesson was not
forgotten. A Cleveland delegation will go
from Ohio to the Democratic national conven-
tion-if not for Cleveland, then candidate of
Cleveland's choosing.
But Kentucky went Democratic by major
ity of 10000 gain of 1850. Governor
Beckham was reelected. His majority at the
previous election was $500.
The Tanmany tiger is on top. Seth Low, the
fusion candidate for mayor, was defeated by
Geo. B. Mcclellan. Low was regarded as in
vincible in Brooklyn, but he lost the borough
by {, oco votes. We are safe i'll saying that
New York, too, will send a Cleveland sort OF
delegation to the national convention.
Albany elected Republican mayor-which
was expected.
Schmitz, Union Labor candidate for mayor
of San Francisco, was elected
Sacramento elected Democratic mayor.
Salt Lake City elected Democratic mayor
and thirteen Democratic alderrnen-eight OF
them Mornons The Republicans elected two
aldermen.
If anyone supposed the Democrats would not
carry Maryland, he guessed wrong. 1t was a
German victory.
Iowa went Republican, but the majority was
only 1000 this time.
Pennsylvania went Gay, as usual, the major
ity being 2I7,785.
New jersey, the trust hatchery, went Repub'
lican by increased majorities.
NuOuc 1Slduu WSut DSiA'Si"'iS' N-J'
Colorado went Republican.
1t is probable, that the Republicans carried
Nebraska by 10000.
Virginia shows a clean sweep for the Demo
Gratis. except IN Botetourt and Fredericksburg,
which elected two Republic ans t. the legisla'
ture.
Republicans carried Massachusetts with
slight loss.
The result in Mississippi insures the return
of Money and McIaurin to the United States
senate without the shadow OF doubt.
Taken altogether, there is little change-no
surprises-ust the same old thing. Reformers
appear to have little to encourage them in the
result of this election yet, none are downcass.
Nor should they be. They must march around
the walls again-and maybe yet again-and
blow their t,umpets long and loud. The walls
must fal-the walls will fall. Right will pre-
vail in the end. But the people must suffer
more seriously than ever before their eyes Will
be opened. So long as we appear to be enjoy
ing prosperity, we are careless and willing to
.slet we'll enough alone" When adversely
comes, then we will THINK!
