The election returns, while showing
no big victories for the Democratic
party. have enough good in them TO
make us hopeful of better results Ill
the future and are gratifying surely,
for the reason, that Mr.. Roosevelt
failed in getting the endorsement
which he expected in many sections
of the country. Tammany won III
soite of the fact that the alliance De-
tween Hearst and the republicans was
endorsed by him, the victory OF Tom
Johnson over his candidate in Cieve-
land, Ohio, is defeat and a reouKe
70 him for his officious interference IN
the affairs of that city and there Is
surely nothing of comfort to nm III
the returns from New Jersey. Inc
republican victory even in Kentucky
was due to fractional fights among It's
people and not to the influence OF tne
President in that State, and wha'
qualification he gets out OF the elec-
s.
ton must, therefore, be in the returns
from Pennsylvania and a few coun'
ties in New York, which never fall &c
cast their vote for the Republican
party. Every defeat of the President
is. of course, gratifying to the demo
