Next Senator From Illinois to Be a Democrat
In Cinoaco on Nov 29, the tally shows General John likely retired from politics. The Grand Jury found Brandh a Democrat received 498 votes in Second Precinct Eighteenth Ward, 24 more than credited. Leman a Republican had 196, 24 fewer. An error substituted Brandh’s name for Leman on Republican ballots. Thus the Legislature will be Democratic on joint ballot, making the next U S Senator from Illinois a Democrat.

Logan Losing Luck in Senate Fight
Washington November 28 General Logan may be hurt by Republican ticket failure and his slim chance to win another Senate term. A local official notes he is poor despite rumors of wealth. About a decade ago he held Chicago area investments worth 150000 but these were wiped out in the 1873 panic. He now relies on a Senate salary of 5000 per year that will soon end, and he has not practiced law or built a strong legal reputation.
