This CThurday) morning we can de-
vote but brief space to the glorious cleo
ton news. The result in Maine seems
to have thoroughly awakened the Re
publicans and brought them to a sense
of their duty.
Large Republican gains were made in
the Connecticut local elections on the
7th.
The Colorado election resulted in a
grand triumph for the Republican party,
the majOrities running up to 1880. We
gain a congressman in the Centennial
state.
The returns from Ohio, Iowa and In
diana are very meagre, but enough is
known to enable us to say that Ohio
has gone Republican by about fifteen
thousand majority.
In Ohio there are Republican gains
in most every county. Last year the
majority for Bishop was about $4,000
There must have been a terrible revolu-
ton, for an off year.
COLUMBUS, October 9.-At 40 a. m.
we have returns from 657 precincts,
from all counties in the state, except
Mercer and Monroe, which show large
Republican gains and indicate the elec.
ton of the Republican state ticket by
10, 900 majority.
COLUMBUS, October 9.-The Republi-
cans claim the following congressman
Garfield, Townsend, Monroe, Upde-
graft, Kiefer, Mel, Mckinley, Van VOr-
HES, Young and ButterwOrth, cOnceding
to the Democrats, Hurd, Hill, Mcmahon
Foley, Geddes and Anterior. The Re
publicans claim that Horton is elected
over Ewing, in this district. The ninth
is still claimed by both parties. The
National vote pOlled is about the same
as last year.
The indications are that Indiana has
elected the Democratic state ticket by
eight thousand majority, and the Repub
licans claim the legislature. If they
have it the tall Sycamore will take a rest
a contamination devoutly wished. The
Nationals made slight gains in this
state.
THE MAJORITY IN IOWA.
DEsMoINEs, Iowa, October 9.-The
estate Register" Republican, has up to
ing returns from every congressional
district. All of them but three indicate
a Republican majority. The Register
claims Republican majority IN the
state of over $4,000 over all the opposi
ton, which will be a Republican gain
of 10000 over the Republican vote fol
governor and over all the opposition OF
last year. The Register also claims
the election of the entire Republican
delegation to congress, with none of the
Republican candidates receiving less
than 500 majority. The Democrats con
cede the state by large majority, and
now have claims of congressman in the
9th and 18th districts.
WEST VIRGINIA.
WHEELING, October Selection re
turns are coming in very slowly. The
vote in this district, the first, is close
Scattering returns show Hubbard, Re
publican, gains largely on Wilson, Dem
Ocrat, but the result cannot be determin
ed tonight. In the End district, Martin
Democrat, is reelected to congress over
Burr, Republican, in the Bird district
Kerna is probably reelected over Walk
er, Greenbacker. There was no Repub
lican nomination in that district A very
bad vote was polled in this city and more
scratching of tickets done than was evel
before known. The result will not be
known until tomorrow. The Republi
cans claim small majority in this
county for Hubbard. The GreenbacB
vote is small
