Notes of the Campaign in
Every Part of the Union.

Dow, 90. The election on Monday resulted in
sweeping Republican victory. Robie, the Re-
| publican nominee for Governor, will have a
majority over Plaisted of nearly, if not quite,
| 10000. The Republican Congressman are all
four elected by nearly the same plurality, q
| gain of two Congressman, or netagain of one,
| allowing for one lost by the new apportion-
ment. They were all elected on a general
ticket, instead of by district. Reed and Ding
| ley will have few more votes than RObie, and
| Boutelle and Milliken will fall off about one
| per cent. from the Governors vote. Cumber-
land county has gone Republican, probably
eecting the whole county ticket. Other
counties have reports from county seats demon
strating that the Legislature is overwhelmingly
Republican, insuring Senator Frye's election.
| The latter received cOngratulatOry kilograms
| from President Arthur, e4-Secretary Blaine
and Senator Hale.
| The Lewiston EUeuing Journals specials give
returns from 356 towns, giving Robie &c, ,424; /;
Plaisted, 56,680; scattering, 1927; Robes
plurality, 9,744

| Having pledged themselves to secrecy, nothing
could be ascertained as to the nature of their
| deliberations.
