LANCASTER DAILY INTELLIGENCER TlH'llDAY. NOVEMBIOK . IMS!!. Lancaster Intelligencer. THUKBDAY KVENINO, NOV, 0, 1U03, Tlie Hcsiilt In Pennsylvania. It Is easy te be wise after tlie evcnt nnd ft great ninny opinions of varying merit nre volunteered a3 te tlie causes of Republican success in Pennsylvania this year. Ordinarily such result would need no explanation, as It lias been the fashion In this state for the lie publicans te liave about the majority with tvhlch they have elected their ticket this year. But inasmuch as the Republicans were defeated last year by divisions In thelr own ranks and the Democratic candidates polled nearly as many votes as the combined vote of the two Republican tactiens, and as the causes operating slnce then te inspire or dopreaa political partle3 seamed te be te tbB advantage of the Democrats, they were confident that the vete this year would be very close, if net in their favor, and tlie ltepubllcans toward the clo3e of the campaign were very apprehensive of aach a re3iilt. Indeed, en the morning of the election Mr. Quay, who is a cnel headed calculator, could forecast no certainty of success, ami an hour after the close of the polls Chairman Cooper, who is never liopeleu, would have been clad te take 1,000 majority and c ill It quits. Te be sure the matter of even 17,000 majority in a poll of Gon.eoo votes is ene of leas than three per cent., and affects only an average of five votes in every election district in the state.but, ai papular eJtlmates of the impirtatn-e of political majorities go, it 13 enough te require explanation. It is in no quarter suggested as yet that this explanation is teba found en a lack of ellbiency or filelity in the put of tlie state organisatien. Tlie camli date3, the party leaders and all who were cegniz iut of the operations of the stite committee none mere keenly than the opposition admit that its work was well done. It was generously supported by the party, in the unin, and the local oignnizitleus responded eill ciently te Use ills upon them. It is at tempted in some quarters te threw the blame upon the Democratic erganiri tien in Philadelphia. That is net fair. The city committee there struggled against extraordinary embarrassments and disadvantages, and if these who are and have been leatlieatte blame it had been as ieady te help, its opera tlens would have been easier if net mere productive. Despite them however, it succeeded iu getting out 55,000 votes for the state ticket, against 12,000 for state treasurer in ISM, as many lis could have been reasonably expected, and the bl? niajerity there is net se much due te a surprisingly small Democratic vote us te the unexpected!) large poll of thi llepublicans. Ner is there any tiling apparent en the face of the returns te justisy the charge that in any locality, or by nny element of the Philadelphia Democracy were the Dem e:ratlc cause and its candidates be trajed. It is te be noted that the Ilepubllcau majority in the at.itc will hardly exceed the figures bv which Al. legheny and Philadelphia go ahead of all the calculations made fei them. Most of the Democratic counties of the tate ha",e held fairly up te the estimates made for them, Luzerne conspicuously distinguishing itself by a remarkable majority, thanks te Senater Coxe, who organized and led his pnrty there. In accounting for the gieater apathy ou the part of the Democrats, or the greater interest of the llepublicans in the elections this ear, consideration must be had for the fact that the Repub licans instead of being depressed by tl Ohie result, weie quickened by it te grave npprehenaiens for their tenure i f power in the country, and it served, like the Maine election iu btptembpr,lbSO, te solidify them and make them light m ie desperately. The continuance of the e.x tra legislative tesslen at Harriiburg overshadowed the rial apportionment issue ; upon the policy of the Legislature temalulng in session the Democrats were at least divided, the llepublicans united , upon the merits of the lnuin upperti in ment Issue the Democrats were limtul and the Republicans diudid. Unfeitu nately tlie issue of lessei impertance was, by the ciicutnstnnei'3 of tlie case, made the popular question te the advantage of the llepublicans. There aie, heweui, in 1 'cutis) l an ia, about .'00,000 etera who did net go te the polls en Tuesday. The party w hich can get the larger piopeition et the.se te support it (luriug the next twelve months will carry rennsjlvanln iu lhl l'OBt the Beeks The Republicans are inclined te ie Jolce ever the results of the election. They have justification for their Jubila Hen only as the condemned man jejn inn reprieve. Their day of deem has been only postponed; the) hae net even received absolution or a pardon. Tlie Democrats have net lest or tailed teenrry n single Htn'e which has ever been accounted as belonging te them or as necessary te their succesj In the im pending presidential contest. Tlie net results of tills ) ear's elections aie light fairly stated by tlie Philadelphia 7'imrs when it says "tlie gener il verdict of the Xovember states leaves the parties about easy In honors for the start in the presl dentlal race, the only in.iteil.il odds or tlie year being in the Damecratlc gain of Ohie." New Yerk and New Jetaey are seen te be steadfastly Democratic. The hepe of tlie Republicans te elect their camli date next year, Is fltaked upon two con Bldenulens, either te car.y ene or the ether of these two states, as well as Ohie, or te make such u bre.ik Iu the Seuth us would likely have followed Mahone'd success this year. When the books are posted, however In 18S3, it is seen that Mnuone Is utterly routed, ills political power broken, his own ro-electlon ren ilered Impossible and Virginia safely anchored en the Democratic elile. It is true that tlie bend of the Democratic ticket in New Yerk Is defeated, but the rest of it is eleeted by a geed ma jority, and tlie result gives the certainty that this controlling stata will be Dem ocratic In 1S8I. With Ohie in doubt, 1'ie ILyiiblle.ms have slnqU sived enough of their army te make a stand ence morennd upon another Held, but mi Impartial general survey of the situa tion most clearly demonstrates Hint they tight en tlie border of the lest ditch.

IN VI mi IMA Mutiuee Completely 1lpru Out. The result of the election in Virginia is an overwhelming and irretrievable defeat for Mahone. The Democrats have both biauches of the Legislature by very large inajirities. This is ascertained bo)end controversy and is conceded by the Ma Ma heneitcs. It will exceed that possessed by the Mahene party in the last Legislature, when they had the Heuso by twenty and the enate by letir. Mahoue's greatest Ii sse ) far, nre in the large whitocouu whitecouu whitoceuu ties of the southwest and valley, which haie heretofore never filled te give a large maj nt for that side en mere state issues Mahoue's vete fell oil seme in the black belt, but net much F.very means was used by him te bnug out the colored vote aud intlanu that race agaiust the Deme crats. The resuP of the election is received by some few of Mabene's subalterns with pretended geld grace. With the leaders, however, it is gall and wormwood. The uegrei's are, as a bid, d.sappeiutcd at the overthton of M.'um Many, how ever, are glad of it and say they are tired of the exitiuuil political strife. The white Republic ms wh lollew Mttioea de net seem te hesitate te show their disap pointment and express a determination Ie. the future te steer clear of coalitions Mahene cannot make another fight in that state Hi i olllcuhelders will all desert him The Deniuciatic Legislature will remove all el the capitol efllcials in sympathy with him. It is net improbable that one or two, if net mero, of the members of the Legislature idoctel frim large white ejun ties will net perlectly ludopetideut of all party caucus dictations It is sta'cd new in Mahene circles thit Superintendent e( Schools Farr, At torney Goneral Blur and ether coalition leaders haie gene te Petersburg te confer with Mahene abmt their defeat. It is also said that the question of a lutuie line of jKi'icy will be disemsid at this conferenoo. Much interest is felt as te whnt ceurse Riddleburgei will pursue in the Bcuate and which party he will nut with when he gets there. The pjeple by whom he is surrounded are thoroughly Democratic in fecliiig aud only faltered en the debt issue. During the canvass just closed Riddleberger made two or three speeches, and thoee wero dohvered in his own and ndj lining e -unties e irly in the fight. The result of Tutsday's election is conclusive proof te the minds of all that the state cannot be moved from its Democracy. The result of the oieot'on will make it impossible ler Mnuone te be re electcd te the United States Senate two years honce. One half of the state Senate electcd Tucs da) will held ever for two year and vete for Mnhone's buccsnsei The large major ity the Douiecrats have in that body will preclude the possibility of his overeottintr eneugh of theso te held ever te soeuro his election.
