The comments of newspapers from

Some have interpreted the election
' as a triumph for free silver ; others a

' In the Second district a sound

large majority it is true, because bis
vote, was cut through local causes,
: His opponent was a popular man,
who had taken a prominent part in
state affairs and conducted himself
with ability. There was also a dis:
satisfaction prevalent .over the turn
ing nown of Hermann, and in many
localities this operated to reduce
Tongue's vote. .

delegation must carry- tot. Louis.
A, few monUis " ago the name of
Thomfts B. Reed was mentioned as
frequently and as earnest!- for the
presidency as was that of William
McKinley. The storm of McKin
leyism which - has Bwepfc over' the
country, carrying every candidate
ftefore it, has left Reed far to
one -side, till, the question "Will
he' accept the vice-presidency?" is
asked more frequently than "Can he
be nominated for the first place?", ;
- Conceding that the latter is im
possible, which, now seems very
likely, we do not think Mr. Reed
would view with pleasure the situa
tion of being an associate in a sec
ondary capacity, with McKinley on
the national' ticket . Reed's boom
started with too many flying colors
to come to such ' an end.. It would
be considered that the sacrifice would
not be one of dignity.
With 'the one exception of profit
ing by the untimely, cteatn 01 tne
president, the vice-presidency has

The Chicago' Democratic con'ven:

of the Charleston convention in
There probably would have been 119
very serious split at Charleston, says
the Register, had 'there nQt been so
many contesting delegations. - Douj

cause Buchanan's administration was
making . war upon him his . friends
were all the more determined ; to
stand be the "Little Giant.' The
consequence was, that there . were
enoush contestins delegates to do
a greay xlea'l of mischief, which they
did, and t hus made Mr. Lincoln's
election certain. ' ' The, combined
vote of Douglas and Breckinridge
was lnrger than the vote that gave
the presidency to the Republican
candidate. ' The administration left
no , stone Tunturned to cripple Doug
las and strengthen Breckinridge, but
although the - administration candi:

Douszlas the election of either was
made impossible. .
At the Chicago convention there
will be enough delegates for. two
