Results of 1885 Elections
 Offer Political Strategists
 DatafOr l036 Wm Maps'
By BYRON PRICE (ChieE Of Bureau, The Associated Press. Washington

lfturf ttA1tHtAS tOiD
 With 1886 almost here, and the local election returns of 1895 avail able for analysis, the political strate- gists are hauling out their war maps and taking up more intensively their study of political geography.
 Theoretically. candidates for na- tional office are supposed to cam paign on national issues, addressing their appeals to the country at large Actually, that seldom happens.
 A look at the election returns for past years demonstrates the point clearly. The country votes by sec tions. Instead of carrying scattered states here and there. candidate for the presidency carries blocs of states, usually on the basis of some sectional issue.
 A map on which the territory of one party is shown in black and that of the other party in white never presents the appearance of checker board. Instead, great areas are solid ly one color or the other
 So political calculations are based, in the main, not on what individual states will do, but on what the large geographical sections will do.
 Three Political Sections
 Most calculators recognize three general sections-the East, the West and the South. Some add a fourth, the Midwest, but it's limits are hard to define and usually the Midwestern states are incorporated under the general heading of the West.
 In the southern group are includ- ed customarily the 12 states of Ala bama. Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Caro- lima, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tex as, Tennessee and Virginia.
 In the eastern group are Connecti- cut, Della ware, Maine, Maryland Massac h u e t ts, New Jersey, New Hampshire, New York, Pennsylvania Rhode Island and Vermont. Roughly, this is the territory east of Ohio and north of the Potomac river.
 In the western group lie all of the others, from Ohio to the west coast, including for the purposes of this classification the border states of West Virginia, Kentucky and Mis- souri.
 These are the three grand divisions of American politics.
 G. 0. P. Problem Simplified When the arrangement is reduced to political mathematics, the result is this: in the electoral college. which chooses Presidents, there are 531 votes. Of this total, the southern group has l35, the eastern 151. and the western 245. A majority or 266, is required to elect.
 It is apparent that no one of the three sections can elect President by itself. but that any two of them, combining solidly or even with some losses, can make up the requisite 266.
 A further important element is the fact that the southern group, with few exceptions, has been solidly - -
