COLUMBUS, o., Oct. 12-ElectIon day
dawned chilly, cloudy and threatening
rain, but before 0 O'Clock the clouds
were dissiPated by the sun, which is
now, at midday, shining bright and
warm, with a cloudless sky and the Ger
taInty OF a pleasant afternoon. a cir
cult Of ali the polling places in the city
shows that voting commenced very early
and has been going actively forward
ever since. The result is that very
large proportion of the votes are already
in the boxes. In one precinct where the
vote last fall was 4S5, there have already
been deposited AIT ballots, or very near
ly the entire vote. In the other pre-
cincts over half the votes are in, and in
most of them two thirds or three-fourth
claim that this fact, together with the
fine weather, works to their advantage,
and they assert that they have made
handsome gains. This claim the Demo
Gratis do not concede. Both parties are
doing their utmost to poll their full
strength, and it is likely that the city
vote will be larger than ever before.
There has been no trouble at any polling
place, and the business men, who have
as rule closed their places, stand about
the polls TO prevent any disturbance that
may be attempted. Both parties are
united to secure fair and full expression
of opinion, and the best of feeling seems
to prevail.
CINCINNATI, Oct. I2.-The weather
cloudy in the morning, but clear and
pleasant in the afternoon. A heavy vote
is being cast very carly, and at one d. m.
the number of votes in the boxes in
many precincts exceeded the total vote
of last year. Business is practically
suspended, and the largest vote ever cast
will be polled to-day. There has been
owing to the precautionary measures
adopted. The mayor has called on the
militia to be readiness, and several com.
panies are at the armory, ready to re-
spond if called upon. Half a dozen ar.
rests have been made for disorderly con.
duct, and for attempted illegal voting
The polls are closely watched every.
where. Very little scratching has been
done. The Republicans regard the
heavy vote as in their favor.
COLUMBUS, Oct. 12.-Reports from all

The county as whole. will, however
