TIE OHIO ELECTION
Hayes Majority Still Com
ing Down.
1t Will be Less than 1000.
Decided Difference between
that and 5000.

COLUMBUS, October l4.-There is still
intense excitement here over the election
news. The Democrats do not expect to
dissipate Hayes majority entirely, but
claim that it will be very small. The
Republicans figure very close but still re-
ly on several thousand majority.
More Doubt tnnn Hope for the RadI-
Gals.
CINCINNATI, October 1.-THE follow
ing Is bulletin at the Gazette office:
Returns from 10 counties give net Re-
publican gain of 1000. The thirteen
counties vet to hear from are such as to
inspire more doubt than hope,
COLUMBUS, October l4.-Attor very
carefully figuring, A. T. Wickoh, chair
man of the Republican State Convcn-
ton, states hat the sixty counties now
reported give lO,6OT majority for Hayes.
The twenty counties not heard from gave
"A Democratic majority of j,27l in 1873.
The Democrats here claim n gain Of ,4e2
in sixteen of these counties, and the Re-
publcans gain of 1000 in four of them;
this would leave net majority of 1884
for Hayes. The Democrats conccie the
State to the Republican by 1000.
CoLUMBUs, October IA Returns are
considered reliable from s. counties Sc
cured by the Republican State Commit
tee show a majority cf 3,463 for Hayes.
The counties OF Carroll, Wood and Della
ware, vet to be heard from, are
ordinarily considered Republican coun-
ties, but Wood has gone Democratic this
year. and it is thought the Democratic
gain there will ncutrslize the Republican
gains in Delaware and Carroll counties
SO as to make the majority for Hayes sub
stantially as above. The Democrats con-
cede the House OF Representatives to the
Republicans by a good majority, but claim
the election of one Senator in Toledo dis.
trict, which gives them the Senst" by one
majority.
DAYTON, October 14.-Thc official
count of Montgomery county gives Al
len S,0Oj, Aliens majority sl3; Cary
7,Sl7, Young 1858, Cary's majority $50;
Shultz, Republican for Representative,
80 majority; Democratic Senator for
Montgomery and Prcble are elected;
two Democratic Representatives are
elected in Montgomery; Aliens gam
AS. The official returns are not kelly to
vary it much.
CoLUMBUs, October l3-Midnight--
The Republican headquarters closed up
without the full returns, but careful cal
culation on all counties except Wood
and Carroll gives Hayes 1854 majority.
The Democratic Committee say Hayes
majvrity will be $500, The Republicans
have II majority in the House. The
Senate is yet in doubt, but the Democrats
concede it to the Republicans by one ma
jority. We have no figures on the State
officers other than Governor, and the
otiial returns must determine who Is

THE OHIO ELECTION.

The reports which were received We'd
nesday night to the effect that HAYES
majority in Ohio had been SO suddenly
cut down from $4,000 to less tEan 5000.
added to those which came yesterday
afternoon, reducing his majority still
further, tended to inspire Democrats
with renewed hope 1t was reasoned,
and very plausibly too, that at the same
rates of reduction, the counties still to
be heard from would show
victory on the other side,
and re-elect Governor ALLEN. These
hopes were doomed to disappointment
\ dispatch received from JOHN
q. THOMPSON, Esq, chairman of the
State Democratic committee, TO the effect
that HAYES majority would be from two
to five thousand, completely e1tingulshea
them, and the only consolation lett was
that the Republicans would haye to come
down from tho high horse they had
been riding, and instead Of twenty-five
fifteen. or even ten thousand, would have
TO be satisfied with the, comparatively
speaking, insignificant majority OF hye
thousand at the utmost. The latest re-
turns, however, do not even give them
this consolation. The Republican State
Committee at the time they closed their
doors last night claimed, after making
careful calculations OF returns from al
the counties of the State, except two
" ood and Carroll, that HAYES could
only obtain majority of 1854.
The Democrats, on the other hand, con
cede his election By 900, which will
probably be still further cut down, since
the Democrats have been very liberal in
their concessions throughout.
And now we claim that the compare
lively insignificant majority is sub
s.antial victory for the Democracy
Setting aside the facts Cf the
vast sums Of money expended,
and the great assistance rendered
the Republicans by the administration
and It's office holders, when it is con-
sidered that, in this election, there were
10000 more votes cast than in 1873; that
then over 10000 were cast for prohibition
and independent candidates; and that
this tremendous vote was polled in State
that usually gives $4,000 Republican ma
iori.v in vote of 100000, neither Gov
ernor ALLEN not the Democracs have
anv reason to be ashamed of the fight
they haye made. To the contrary, when
it Is further considered that had inde-
pendent and prohibition candidates
drawn of 10000 votes now, Governor
ALLEN would have been elected by over
$4,000 majority, they have good cause 10
be proud of their contest.
Next year tho fight will be against
Radicalism, and this election proves con
clusively that on that fight wc are Ger
tain Of victory. We will have all who
voted with US this time, and u great man 5
more than $500 besides.
