dred majority. He is the first person
to be elected on a straight democratic
ticket in many years. Two OF bis as
sociates on the ticket came within
three hundred of election, and the
largest majority cast for anyone on
the republican ticket this year was
about twelve hundred. This very
considerable democratic gain. During
the past eight years the repu blican
papers have been in the habit adding
This is Mr.. Bryan's home to the
announcement OF republican success
in the city: it is to be hoped that the
