Bosrox, November 7, 10 P. M.-The
election in this State has passed of
very quietly. The weather during the
day was clear and pleasant, and ever5-
thing wss favorable for large vote,
but the ralliers who!are generally very
plenty, seemed to have exhausted them
selves before the election, and the vote
polled Throughout the State has been
very light and will probably be consid-
erably under that of last year. Boston
gives Wasbburne, Republican, for Gov
ernor, S24S; Adams, Democrat, 7ll2;
Chamberlain, Labor Reform, 243 and
Pittman, Prohibitory, 1862. General
King, Republican, is probably defeated

Republican, is elected District Attorney
over Oliver Stephens, by about 1909
majority. The Legislature is over
whelmingly Republican. Casual re-
turns received from 100 towns, up to-
this time, give Washburne 1876 plu-
rality. The Labor Reform and Prohib-
ltory vote has fallen off considerably
from that of last year.
