whole number Of towns and plantations

about two-thirds Of the vote Of the
state. Plaisted,s election ia not
doubted. and his majority Is variouslv
estimated MT from OOO IN Q 50o
Blaine comedies him n small majority
The vote is the largest ever cast. The
prohibitIonist,. under advice from Nve
their candidate. did not generally vote
for him, but directly for PIaisted as the
surest means of defeating Davis For
congress. FRYE is the only republican
whose election is conceded by the
fusionists. but Lindsey has a majority
beyond doubt. Reeds election Is
claimed by the republicans but his
majority is placed as low as III. and
the fusionists claim that the returns are
being doctored. Ladd and Murcb.
the fusionist setting members. have
majorities to spare. 1t looks as though
both Of the constitutional amendments
would have large maiorities and parti.
ularly that making the pluralIty elect
the governor which. IL adopted. will
be operative as To this election.
