can Party Completely Wrecked
The Republican party yesterday
| met it's Waterloo. That which was
once the strongest political ma
chine ever known in this country,
is today on the junk pile, wreck.
1t went to pieces on the shoals OF
special interests" 1t mattered not
that one portion of the party split
off and ran independently; the
American people had at last come
to recognize the close communion
existing between the Republican par
ty and what is known as 1.-THE In
terests," and they reached the de-
termination many months ago to
put an end to it. The result of yes
terday's election, when the candi-
dates of the Baltimore Democratic
National Convention, Woodrow Will
son, of New Jersey, and Thomas
Marshall,of Indiana, won, could have
been foretold many months age, for
the Republican party, and the Pro-
gressive, too. for that matter, with
out the cash assistance which they
have been receiving from protected
interests, would be like huge
steamer without steam.
The crew of office-holders might
be in their places; every man might
be ready to perform the duty as
signed to him, but without the pro-
Polling force of Wall Street money
the Republican party is powerless.
The voters of the country had got
ten on to this fact and were on to
the fact that the Republican party
was giving Wall Street protection
in return for its cash, so that it
mattered not whether the Repubn-
cans split or not the people of the
country were determined to put the
party out of power, and did so.
Yesterdays election was the first
time for twenty years that the
Democratic party has elected dts
try, as the glorious news came in
that State after State, which had
been heretofore Republican, was
changing over to the Democratic
columns and electing electors pledg-
ed to Wilson and Marshall. a great
cheer went up from all over the
country, that at last the people were
coming into their own. The Demo-
Gratis captured every State in the
Union except four or five, these
being Vermont, New Hampshire,
Utah, Illinois, and possibly Penn
sylvania, which seems to be il
doubt between Wilson and Roose
veh. Maryland has given the can
didates a majority of from 10000
to $4,000, Baltimore city alone roll
ing upra majority of about q set s.
In the First Congressional DIE
trict J. Harry Covington has won
by the largest majority ever given
a candidate. It Is impossible to es-
innate what that majority will be
at this time, but the indications are
that it will run close to, If not ex-1
coed, 10000.
The vote in Dorchester county,
which was as follows, shows that
the Democrats have apparently carr
ried the county by from 1875 to $50
majority: r. 9s
