MoKINLAY lS PRESIDENT.
President McKinley bae been sleeted
President of the United States for bbe
eecoud term. The remit of the eleotion
was not a surprise to Canadians. His
candidature wae for sound money and a
policy of progreeeiveness, and on tbeee
ieeuee he won. The result has been a
death blow to Bryaniem, wboee leader
will, doubtless, be planed on the list of
"baa beans,"
In summing tip the whole story was
easily and briefly told. The Republioau
ticket would have a larger electoral vote
than four years ago, but in the larger
states of the East and middle Weet, the
pluralities had been greatly reduced.
Maseechusebte had fallen from 174,000 to
50,000 ; New York from 268,000 to 150,•
000 ; and Illinois from 142,000 to 100,000
or lees,
The President's first congratulations
from headquarters came from J. H. Mao.
ley at New York ae follows : "Praise God
from whom all bleeeings flow. Your
trinmpbant reelection is ooneeded by
Democratic managers. I tender my
earnest congratulations. We are very
happy at headquarters."
New York, Nov. 6.—The following
telegram was sent to -night : "W. J.
Bryan, Lincoln, Neb.: AB you no doubt
already know the state has gone heavily
against us, but whereas this country in
1896 gave McKinley a majority of 28,000,
it gives you to -day 33,000, a gain of 56.
000. We are defeated but not dieoocrag.
ed. Richard Oroker,"
London, Eng., Nov. 7-6 e. m.—The
result of the presidential election was
not received here in time for definite
comment by the morning newspapers,
Some of them, however, refer to the con.
test, and the Telegraph speaks of it ae a
momentous decision upon the most re-
markable issue placed before the United
States people einoe the oivil war, The
Standard takes the view that the election
of Bryan would have meant the develop.
Bent of unfriendly feelings between
England and Ameri0a.
Both candidates are worthy, exemplary
men, personally, and Mr. Bryan hi an
unnenally graceful and magnetic speaker.
It meet be said for Preeident McKinley
and his Basooiates of the Exeontive that
they have reciprocated, in the Chinese
troubles, and otherwise, the good will
shown to the United States by Great
Britain during the Spenieh•Amerioan
war of a year or two ago. For that and
other reasons, we consider the - reenit of
