The returns come in slowly, but should
the Republicans gain from the portions Of
the State ye. TO be heard from increase in
the same ratio as those already in, their
majority viii aggregate about IS 900.
Foster runs ahead of his ticket in many
places. and has polled a heavy vote in the
Western Reserve counties. The Democrats
made their fight OF tie Legislature, as it
was conceded that the Senatorship to be
vacated by Thurman was Of more import
ance than the Governorship. 1t is also
asserted that Ewing was willing to sacri-
fee the one in order to secure the other,
and his friends labored hard for the sue
cess Of the Legislative ticket, there being
4 tacit understanding that he should be
Tburman's successor. Tie fact that the
Legislature is still in doubt gives coloring
to this statement.

Newspaper Opinions.
CIscrxSATI, October Is.
The Enquirer says: The result is not
due to the currency question, but to sec
tionalism, to the skull and crossbones, to
bloody shirtism.
The Gazette says: The people were
aroused at the threats Of the Southern
leaders and resolved to rebuke them and
also says that the defeat Of the Democrats
is due, in q great measure, to the fat
money heretics, who sought to unsettle
finances and launch the country again
upon . sea Of irredeemable and fuctuating
paper money.
NEW YORK, October Is.
The World says: Ohio is still . doubt
full State |; and adds: Ewing has been
beaten, as he was elected to be, when at
the outset OF his canvass he deliberately
abandoned the strong ground Of outright
Democratic protest against the vetoes Of
Hayes, and undertook to counter with his
own financial theories the stalwart facts Of
. magnificent harvest in the West, unpar-
alleled crops At the South, and Of the in
flowing tide Of gold from Europe.
