/ COLUMBUS, O., oct with beauti-
full weather the election passed off more
quietly than for years, Scarcely any
attention was paid to the registry law
but its provisions requiring the sub-di-
vision of wards was generally com
mended as tending to keep objection
able crowds away from the usually
troublesome precincts. A fair vote was
| polled, but very badly scratched on the
local ticket 1t will be late before full
returns of the city can be obtained
COLUMBUS, O., Oct. 9.-Thc day has
been pleasant throughout the state
which is usually considered favorable to
the republicans; but the fair weather is
offset by the apathy and the withdrawal
of the republican votes to the working
men and greentack tickets. The re-
turns are coming in slowly and indicate
democratic gains, In the compilation
of the votes no account is taken of the
greenbacker's or workngmcn's vote,
although the latter is said to have polled
a heavy vote in Hamilton county.

lean gains will be made with the vote
