Wuole hepuDllCan bthte TICKET are elected as
matter of course, Gov. Longs plurality being
a little upward of 43, 600 One of the most
satisfactory features Of, the election is the re-
suit in Boston, the Republicans having car
ried the city by majority of more than 20OO
in a total vote of 29,00l. The vote on the
proposed amendment to the state consttu-
ton relative TO the voting of soldiers who
might be unable to pay poll tax was very
light throughout the state, but the measure,
which requires only majority vote, is un-
doubleday adopted
New York.
On Wednesday the result in New York was
in doubt, with the chances in favor of the
Democrats having won the day Later re-
turns, however, render it nearly certain that
the Republican state ticket, with the excep-
ton of Gen. Hustled the candidate for treas.
urer, has been elected by about II, 900 ma
jority. The completeness of the Republican
victory is marred by the fact that the Demo-
crets will control the next Legislature. The
latest reports indicate that that party will
have a majority on joint ballot of 6, a ma
jority in the senate of =, and in the assembly
of 4. Later returns may increase their ma
jority on joint ballot by two votes. In the
city of Brooklyn very important and graft
| flying Republican victory was gained. Ring
rule has been broken in that city and the Re-
publicans have wiped out Democratic ma
| jority of some 1870 and elected their can
| didate by a majority of 4497. The Demo-
| cratic majority on the state ticket which
last year was 9311 and in 1879 was IL oil,
has this year been reduced to 1904 The
mayoralty victory is due to a determined war
of young Republicans on a powerful machine.
OF the four Congressman voted for in the
state, the Republicans elect two and the
| Democrats two, the latter being in New York

didates was the wealthy young w. w. Aston,
who used his money freely, but this could not
save him. His well-known affiliation with ex-
Senator Conkling did much to defeat him.
COnnectIeut.
In Connecticut half the Senatorial districts
| elected state Senators. The Republicans
have elected ten of the fourteen senators
voted for, giving them seventeen of the
twenty-four senator's Last year the senate
stood sixteen to FIVE This year there are
three now districts. The house stands, &C
cording to the Courant's returns, l49 Repub.
| licans, 90 Democrats, one Greenback. Last
year, Republicans, 1866, Democrats so, Green
back, one.
New Jersey.
The returns indicate that the state Senate
will stand Republicans 10, Democrats s the
Assembly Republicans %, Democrats 30,
with one anti-monopoly Republican from
Jersey City aud one district in doubt, but
claimed by the Republicans.
PennsyIVania.
The Pennsylvania election was for state
| treasurer and county officers. But little in
terest was manifested and q very light vote
was polled Revised estimates from all but
five counties give Bailey, Republican, for
state treasurer G2s5 plurality, over WOLFE
Independent Republican and Noble, Demo-
| NUoIfa ,,nllaI Oh
Maryland.
| In Maryland the election was for a state
comptroller, half senate and a house of del
| egates. Returns from the counties are still
incomplete but sufficient to base an estimate
of the general result have been received The
Republicans have gained unexpected victor
| les in several Democratic counties, including
| senators in Hartford, where Allen (Republi-
CAM is elected over Stump Democrat), who
was president of the last senate They also
| gain senators in Talbot, Prince Georges and
| st. Mary's counties. The next senate will
stand, according to present estimates, lG
| Democrats and 10 Republicans In the last
senate there were Republicans aud 10 Dem
ocrats. Based on the same estimates the
house will stand 80 Democrats and 32 Repub-
licans. The Republicans have also elected
| Frederick Stone, the Republican nominee for
chief judge in the seventh judicial district
composed of Charles, st. Mary's and other
counties in lower Maryland. John d. Brooke,
Republican, nominee for associate judge, for
the same district, is also elected.
Virginia.
In Virginia the Republicans and Readjust-
| ers have won decided victory and Cameron
the anti Bourbon candidate for governor is
elected by majority of not less than 10, 600
| In the legislature the anti Bourbon majority
on joint ballot will be not less than II or 49,
The blow is an overwhelming one for the
Bourbon element and at first they could
hardly bring themselves to realize what had
happened.
MissIssIppI.
kilograms from nineteen counties in Miss
| issippi show that the Democrats have carried
them all except Madison county, where the
fusion gains were about 400. Every indica-
ton points to the success of the Democratic
state ticket by $1,000 to 20, 900 majority
The Democratic state committee claim the
election of the state ticket by from 20, 900 TO
10000, and the fusionists concede an over
whelming defeat. Three-fourths of both
branches of the legislature will be Democrat
ie.
Colorado.
In Colorado the election was for judges
and county officers. The returns are very
meagre. The Republican majority for Nav
lY been chosen to be the permanent capitol
of the state.
Minnesota.
Returns from 106 cities, townships and
precincts give Hubbard (Rep.), for governor.
20, O60; johnson (Dem.), 1880. This is
about one-third Of the state, and indicates a
falling of Of 80 to 40 per cent. from the vote
of last year. If the other precincts vote in
the same proportion Hubbard's majority will
be from 10000 TO $4,000, and the rest of the
ticket about the same except for supreme
Judge. All the constitutional amendments OF
general effect are probably carried.
wisconsin.
In Wisconsin there was a small vote. The
returns indicate the election of the Republi.
can state ticket by plurality of not less than
G,000. The Republican majority year age
was over $4,000. The political complexion
of the legislature will be Republican.
Nebraska.
Samuel Maxwell, supreme court Judge, and
l.. b. Fifeld and Isaac Powers, university
regents, were elected by from $4,000 TO IS,
900 majority in the state, this being about the
usual majority of the Republican ticket
These were the only state officers voted for.
The latest Omaha despatch estimates the
Republican majority at 10000.
Kansas.
In Kansas, where the election was for
county officers, the Republicans were general
ly successful. But little interest in the cleo
ton was excited. In many counties there
was no party contest, all county and township
officers being conceded to the Republicans
with scarcely the Formally of an opposing
ticket. In places where the Democrats have
heretofore had show of success, the canvass
was quite active, but the state central com
mittee has not been advised of any Republi.
