A Republican Congressional majority, so large as to be unwieldy, has been cut to a margin so small that in both Houses Republican legislation will be at the mercy of a handful of insurgents of doubtful party regularity. i While the Republicans sustained losses in the election, the Milwaukee Journal (Ind.) can not see that the Democrats made any conclusive gains. Indeed, it is forced to conclude that it if one looks for the real gains he.finds them going to the radicals. The New York Sun notes that “Voters with radical sympathies have lined up with the radical candidates almost as generally as they might have if there had existed a great radical party. It has happened in the East and in the West. The radicalism that has come int~ evidence in this slection exceeds sectional bounds. It has eaten into the very fiber of both the old parties.” ] Do not fail to read in THE LITERARY DIGEST this week the summary of opinion upon this very interesting development that has come out of the election. There are a host of other im- portant news-features in THE DIGEST. this week which will have more than an ordinary ap- peal.
