from give Carpenter 9,700 majority. On tho

ceived and yet to come In, TINT the Anti-Monop-
o]ists will have Al and the Republicans So in
the Lowor House. In four or five counties tho
official count will be necessary to determine the
result: IN the Senate tho Republicans will havo

cd by 900, and the Representatives by 5oomsjor-
Wnncahiok County-Carnsnter receives a
majority. Tho Liberal Representatives are
elected. Wllett. for tho senste, Republican,
probably elected By sEaau majority.
Allamakes County-Returns incomplete: Both

IL probably returned to tho Lsglelature.
1t is conceded that tho Antl-Monopoly party

CEDAR RA.1ps, H., Oot. 7.-Aocordlng to the
Of i. 900 in sxty:aix counties, and Vale $500,
leaving Carpente1's net majority in these coun-
ties at 12,4l7. In tho same counties laat year
preaident Grant had majority Of 43.000. Tho
counties vol 70 U6 QcaTQ from WILL undoubtedly
increase Carpenters majority no less than {, ,000,
making the total majority he will receive in
tho Slate ut least i80U6. Considering that
the raturns from the heavy drauge-D Democratic
counties have already been repo:!.ed, and that
State Is leas powerful. It is % reasonable to e1- G
poet that tho jority will be awelled
to fully 10000.
