WEDNESDAY, OCT. 17, eae THE SPEAKERSHIP- The respective friends of Mr. Car- isle of Kentucky Mr Randall of Pennsylvania, Mr. Cox, of New York and several other gentlemen of less notoriety in the country, are urz- ing with all their might the election ofthe man of their choice to the Speakership of the next House of Congress. The ground upon which the battle is being waged is mainly the tariff question, although it is by no means the only important prob- lem involved in the organization of the next House. Besides a revision of the tariff, which is confessedly a Democratic doctrine,there 1s a reform in the civil service department which will re- quire the application ot the most rigid measures. True it is that Mr. Randalls record there is to be tound splendid evidence of the re- form he would produce in the civil service of the government should he be chosen speaker, but as to his re- cord upon the tariff issue it has but little in common with the in- terests ot the southern and western people. With Mr. Carlisle as speaker the House would be organized not only upon a retrom of tiie civil service, but also a radical reform would be instituted upon the present unjust, descriminating high tariff. Mr. Randall might do all that is desired as to the tormer, but he would not be equal to the emergency in the latter. His committees would be arranged with high tariff proclivities thereby blocking every avenue to a reform in the monstrous working§ of that bur- densome system upon the laboring people of the country. Mr. Car- recognized in every quarter Union. seeking politician, buta disinterested sage, hving at ease in his magnificent home crowned with as much honor as his ambition craves. To take the Presidency would be a God send to the Republic. "OHIO AND 10WA_ These twostates, always important in any actionthey may take politi- cally or otherwise. held their elect:oo for state officers trom governor down last Tuesday the oth, inst. The results are most encouraging as they were surprising to the Democrats. Ohio goes Democratic by a good large majority, while Iowa remains asever Republican, though by a much smaller majority than it has been her custom heretofore to in | give. In both states the temperance, or rather the prohibition question figur- ed largely in the campaign preced- ing the election. In Ohio two amendments to the constitution were yotedon. One prohibiting the man- ufacture and sale of whisky, the oth- er regulating the sale thereof but not embracing any prohibitory clause. The Democrats espousea the latter and fought the campaign upon that basis. Although the Prohibitionist had a seperate ticket they and the Republicans went together mainly upon the prohibition question. The Democratic theory being the most just and equitable in the eyes of the people, was selected as the best to govern the state, notwith- standing its champions, and espcecial- ly the leader, Judge Hoadley, candi- date tor governor, was stricken down with misfortune and illness prevent- ing for several weeks his active aid in the managment of the campaign. The fact of the matter was the Demo- crats throughout the country were be precisely the reverse,. insuring to the people a change that would at least be the Begining ot a reform m the affairs of the government. Besides the foregoing reasoning the fact that Mr. Carlisle is from the south, from whence comes the largest Democratic support of any section of the Union, entitles him the position. The south solid tor Democracy when Tilden was nominated in 1876, and she has been so ever since, 1s so now and will be in the next Presidential elec- tion. Hence she is entitled to. some recognition at the hands of the na- tional Democracy. As to Mr. Uarlisle’s personal and Private record no complaints what- ever can be alleged. He isa pure man in every sense of the term, and would make a record as speaker ot an Amenan Congress equaled only by that of the great Henry Clay. Ohio, and they looked and calculat- ed on nothing else in Iowa. Hence timely, however, unexpected result. In Iowa there was no probibitory question voted vpon, notwithstand- ing many people have labored under a contrary opinion. The prohibito- became canvass just closed that the technical ment. The Democrats sustained the ment was unconstitutional and void. Th the only way in which the Prohibition question figured in the Iowa campaign. It simply a question to be discu and not to was 1 THE OLD TICKET. A number of the leading Repub- Sican journals of the country are worrying for fear the old ticket of 876 will be nominated by the Dem- ocrats next And they worry, tor should the next N: tional Demoeratic Convention con- tain wisdom enough to renominate | the old ticket, the doom of Republi- canigm is sealed and its well be voted upon.

We take it that Democrats can bank on the } fact that the situatio to the e i ts carried either Ohio they would have next vear. organ- ized and splendidly equipped col- smns will break assunder and scatter to the four winds of Heaven. The Republican argument upen this question is that to nominate the old ticket would be an egregeous blunder om the part of Democrats, asserting that it might have been pol- ee icy four years ago but not so now.

Chairman Oglevee being at his office in the state-house and Chair- man Barger having lett the city. There was nothing exceptionally new to be learned at headquarters, the geaeral result in the state ticket and legislature being substantially known and the campaign committee having put away their pens to await the of- ficial count. The very latest Democratic figures give the Democrats the state ticket by about 15,000 and the senate will have twenty-one members 12 for the Republicans; while the lower house will stand: Democrats, 63; Repub- licans, 42. These figures will give the Democrats 30 majority on joint ballot, but it 1s believed that when the official returns are in this majori- ty will be cut down tu 25. A caretul estimate indicates that the total vote im the state will reach over 700,000, the Prohibitiomsts having polled about 15,000. The judicial amend- ment has not been adopted. MAJORITY GROWING. Columbus, Oct.-11.—More com- plete returns from Tuesday’s elec- tion indicate an increase in the Dem- ocratic major‘ty, and it will probably be considerably over 12,000, The senate will be two to one Democrat- ic, and the house is estimated at 43 Republicans and 62 Democrats. Later returns legisla ticket indicate that the Demoer majority on joint ballot will more than 24. The second will i on the c not be amend- votes, and will probably be adopted except the it. The judicial amendment 1s car- ried beyond a doubt. The first amendment will not get over 100, oco votes. The prohibition vote estimated at irom 5,000 to 20,000 } and the Greenback vote at 2,000.

Cincinnati, Oct. 14.—The com- mercial Gazette this morning pub- lishes figures from every county ex- cept Stark county showing the pro- hibition amendment has 309,413 votes, while the total vote in the state was 709,364. by which show- ing the amendment has been defeat- ed. Careful estimates at this hour, night, make the total vote of Ohio 711,791. The prohibition amendmen vote was 320,550,in which it gives nearly 70,000 majority against prohi- bition. mid- IOWA. GREAT DEMOCRATIC GAINS. Dubuque, Io., Oct.,10.—All returns so tar from Iowa election show Democratic gains In 1880 Garfield carried the state by ago the received the 80,000 majority, znd two years Gov. Sherman was elected by 40,000 majority. Now itis believed here his majority will not run 20.000 or 25,000, and it may even be less than that. At any rate, itis greatly re- duced, and Towa may now be placed All the Demo- of in the list of double states. returns received here show cratic gains in this portion the The Democrats have clected members of the legislature in Du- buque, Jackson, Clinton, Clayton, Allamakee, Winneshiek, Chickasaw Floyd and Buchanan countics, six of which ure gains. It probable Donnan, chairman of the Republi- can state committee, is defeatad in the senatorial district composed ot Buchanan and delaware counties. The Republicans claim both — state ticket and legislature on joint bal lot. Des Moines, Io., Oct.21.—Sher- mans majority will reach 30,000. Complete returns trom 59 counties which include heavy Democratic ones, give him 13,300. Partial re- turns from the remaining counties give him 27,000. His plurality will be not less than 12,000. Tye lower house is close. The Republicans now have24; the oposition, 41. Of the remaining 5 the Republicans will get three. The senate now stands: Republicans, 37; Oposition 8; in doubt, 5, Judge Cook is elect- ed in the sixth district by a small ma- jority. Des Moines, Io., Uct. r1-—10 p. m.—Definite returns have been re- ceived by the state register on legis lature and the result is positively known so far as it can be until the official count has settled a few close contests.
