165 town give Perhan Al, ,041, Kimball
3O,8z2. Republican majority 10, 1919. The
same towns last year gave Perham 33,864,
Kimball $500, being Republican major
ity of 1884. so the net Republican gain this
year is 2,935. These towns cover a little
more than half of the State, and indicate
$1,000 majority.

ment has been witnessed here sincG the
opening of the campaign as that at the va
rious political headquarters this evening.
The Fifth Avenue Hotel, the Glepham and

hear the returns from Maine.
The following was received at the Libe-
raj Republican headquarters:

StfIl Later.
PORTLAND, ME-, Sept. 10, o'cl'k a. m.
One hundred and ninety-eight towns
give Perham 46,973, Kimbal 35,73S. Last
year the same towns gave Perham IS, $50,
Kimball 30,467, Resublican gain over
1871 of 1872. The towns not heard from
gave last year Perham 1855, Klmban IT,,
| Ill, majority 2,444. If this is increased
| in proportion to the towns received, Per-
ham will have 10, $3.50 majority. The total
vote if it is increased in proportion will be
| l25,600 of which Perham should have TO-
| 566. and Kimball 55, 1856. Last years fetal
vote was 105,S97 of which Perham had
| 5S,2S5, Kimball 47,57S and scattering "a,
being majority of l0,7O7.
| In 1868 Chamberlain, Republican, had
| 75,525; Pillsbury, Democrat, 56,252; Re-
publican majority 1928, making the Re-
publican net loss nearly 1000 from that
wear, but the vote of 1858 was the largest
ever known, being 131,777, or 5000 more
than it will probably be this year; and this
reduction of the aggregate would decrease
the majority about 1000, so that the loss
will fairly be 5000 from 1868. f5
Every county will be carried by Republi-
cans, giving the Senate unanimously he
publican. We have no returns from repre-
sentatives, but the complexion of the House
may be judged by the general result.
