| ALL THE CONGRESSIONAL DIsTRIcTs.
| CONCORD, March e.-The Republicans 10 notrc-
| joice without cause tonight They have made a
pretty clean sweep of the State far as
| the Legislature is concerned, and there is
little doubt that they have succeeded In
electing Person G.. Cheney as Governor 1t is easy
to see how great gain might be made in the Legis-
lature without a corresponding gain in the Republic
can vote for Governor for in many cases the major
| ties were expressed by single figure; and
| th'n, all efforts concentrated upon the
Legislature at the expense Of the GubeTna-
toral candidates. As far as can be
judged from the hundred towns that have
reported up TO this hour the Republicans are safe IN
claiming 1,COO majority. The vote is much heavier
than last year, and it may be heavier than was ever
cast Ill the State. In 50 town it 5000 ahead OF
last year. and the Republican vote shows net gain
of almost 1900.
MIDNIGHT.-The result as far as can be calculated
at this hour may be summed up briefly: Person
c. Cheney tRepl probably elected by
small majority. the Legislature is Repubh-
can by about 20 majority. and three he
publican Congressmen are probably chosen III Is
evident however, that 10 Mr. Cheney's elec-
tion by the people he cannot afford To run much
further behind, as he has $500 votes to gain. One
hundred and thirty towns give Cheney (RepJ 2l,J2s
votes; Roberts Dem). 1878; White Pro) and
scattering, 3e0 Mr. Cheneys net gain last year
is 2,5l7.
