ESPECIAL TO THE HERALD
The Republican Victory I'm Ore
gOn.
SAN Francisco, June Ga Portland
dispatch says: The count up to noon
shows that last nights estimates were
correct. The Republican State ticket is
certainly elected. Georges friends
claim his reelection by 1000. The re-
turns are insufficient to make an esti-
mate on the Legislature. There is no
perceptible falling off in the Republican
vote, and as the last Legislature was
Republican, the probabilities are strongly
in faver of this Legislature being Re-
publican. The Democrats claim that
the Legislature is in doubt, but concede
Georges election and most of the Re-
publican State ticket.
