coming in slowly and thus far show nothing by
which an idea of the result in Hamilton County can
DO gained Returns from other portions Of the State
are meager, but more counties show Democratic
gains than the reverse. Ashtabula Campaign, Cuya-
hoga, Erie, Harrison, Huron, Lucas Muskngum,
Madison, Marion, Ottawa, Pickaway. Stark, San
dusky, Summit, Tuscarawas, Washington, and Wood
Counties especially show strong Democratic gains
over the vote for Wickon in 1872, and leading Re
publicans admit that if the Democratic vote con-
tlnues to exhibit the gains through other por
tons Of the State Aliens election is certainty The
returns show that a comparatively light vote has
been polled throughout the State.

Democratic, and the indications are that the Demo-

light. The Democrats are claiming sufficient gains
IN the Legislature to secure Thurman's re-
election but this is not by any means GER

parties. The Republicans believe they have
IT by from 1900 ito 5000 majority. The Democrats
admit that they have lost heavily here, but still
think they have the county safe. Returns are com
ing in slowly Tickets badly split up and the
results cannot be ascertained with certainty at
present. The light vote polled favors the Demo-
cratic ticket.
