NEW HAMPSHIRE.
The State Election Yesterday.
The Republicans Triumphant.
PrOhibltiOnists Vote the Repub-
lican Ticket.
One Democratic Congressman
Probably Elected.

MANCHESTER, n. H, March 9.-The
election Throughout the State is progressing
quietly, and up to noon a larger vote had
been pOlled than ever before. Both parties
are polling their full strength. There are
but few split tickets.
Boston, MASS, March 9.-Dispatches
from New Hampshire indicate an unusual
" large vote by each party, and a possible
Republican victory through the pro-
hi0itiOn vote, which is being pretty
generally cast for the Republican
nominees. The Republicans already
claim the Governor and the second and
third Congressional Districts. The cleo
tion Of Frank Jones, Democrat, a Congress
slonal Candidate in the First District, is
conceded by the Republicans. Portsmouth,
in the First District, has gone Democratic
by an increased majority. Jones has a
majority here Of ole hundred, against a
Democratic majority Of eleven last year.
A Concord dispatch from a Republican
source says: "The news Of the Republican
victory is confirmed beyond doubt, and ju-
bilatiOns have begun everywhere" Che
Dey's majority is probably small. The
Legislature is Republican by a good work
ing majority. II is known that Jones,
Democrat, is elected in the First District,
and Blair, Republican, in the Third; Kent,
his opponent, is running behind his ticket.
The contest is close in the Second Dis
trict. The Monitor says: The returns
received this afternoon indicate be-
yOnd a peradYelture that the Republican
party has won a triumph, even if it has not
made a clean sweep, and has undoubtedly
elected Cheney on a popular vote, and car
ried the House by an overwhelming ma
jority and the Senate two to one. Returns
from 40 towns give Cheney, Republican,
1856; Roberts, Democrat, 7,7I5; White,
PrOhibitionist, 149; scattering 3. The
towns last year give. McCuthins, Rep1bli-
can, 6,5o1; Weston, Democrat, I, 7,160; Black
mer, PrOhibitiOnist and scattering 503. A
Republican gain Of 902.
The Republican State Committee are
confident that they have carried the State.
The indications are that the Republicans
have elected their Governor and carried
the Senate and House Of Representatives.
Wonderful Republican gains are reported
from almost every section Of the State.
The Democrats are reticent as to the re-
suit, but are confident that further returns
will elect their Governor, and possibly
Pike, their Congressional candidate in the
Second District.
CONCORD, y. H, March 9.-Ninety-fve
towns give Cheney, Republican, Il, 762;
Roberts, Democrat, 1887; White, Pro-
hibitiOnist, and scattering, pa. These
towns last yeast year gave AIcCutcbens, Re
publican, y, 739; Weston, Democrat L, ,0S3;
Blackmer, ProhibitiOnisb and scattering,
7S5, which is a net gain for Cheney Of
LII.
Later.
Sufficient returns have already come in
to insure, beyond doubt, sweeping VIC
tory for the Republicans. The Republicans
claim that they have elected Cheney Gov
ernor, by the people, and all three Con
gressmen; that they will have a majority Of
thirty or forty in the Legislature. As the
returns show the election Of seven Sena-
tors at present, these claims seem we'll
The gubernatOrial majority, how
ever, will probably be small.
