What isSaid by Prominent Politicians. HOW CHAIRMAN M’PHERSON ACCOUNTS FOR THE VARIOUS CHANGES OF SENTIMENT INDI- CATED IN THE NORTH AND SOUTH. A Star reporter saw Secretary McPherson, of the republican congressional committee, yes- terday. “A great satisfaction { have in the re- sult of the election,” he said, “is somewhat of selfish one. It is that everything has turned out just as I predicted. I said the democrats were in just the same position the republicans were in 1878, Then, you know, the republi- cans were dissatisfied with the first part of the Hayes adininistration and retused to go to the polis, That's the way it was this time with the democrats. They were in bad temper over the division of the offices. They hud not got all they expected out of the administration and were generally dissatisfied and ina bad humor, so they remained at home on election day. Then, too, in the south there is a_growing pro- tection sentiment which is opposed to the policy of the party in the House. The result of the election is due more to these things than anything else, So far as there is any principle tavolved, itis that of tari. Bat generully you see the democrats have suffered most within old strongholds.” “How do you account for the democratic ains in Massachusetts, Minnesota and Ne- raska?” asked T “In Massachusetts the democrats are trying to get respectable, and, strange to say, they are gatherlog around them all the old aristocracy. By posing as the respectable party they make guins there. The result in Nebraska is due to Ube attitude the democrats have taken on the railroad and land matters, more particularly the former. Senator Van Wyck wus a help to them. In Minnesota, besides the teeling on ac- count of railroad matters, there is a strong free trade sentiment, which operates to the benetit of the democrats. The tact is their interests are just the reverse to those of the east, and the democrats have tallen back on their old policy which they worked before the war. “Will tue tree traders be silenced in the next House?” asked tue reporter. “By no means! You can’t shut them up in thut way.” “The Randall wing will be in the ascend- ency?” suggested the reporter. “Notatall. He will have less power than ever beiore. “They are nut going w surrender to him in that way. He comes back this time hauuteapped by republican support, Tis will greatly weaken his influence.
