rality of 500 last year. the plurality
for Sherman will be 100 or 1850, OF
which 700 will come from DeS Molnes.

ticket, but by much less majorlties.
The latest returns show that a heavy

following dispatches:
COLUMBUS. o., Oct. 10.-At +. NJ.
the returns indicate the election of the
democratic state ticket by four or five
thousand majority, and OF the legiSla
ture being democratic in both branch
es, with the vote on the prohibltOry
amendment close. Contrary to all eX-
pectatiOnS, the cities show republican
gains and the democrats hold their own
in the rural districts, due to the repub-
licanS in the country sacrificing their
tickets for the amendment. While the
vote will be close, the democrats have
everything, and the republicans con
cede that III submitting the prOhlbitO-
ry amendment they armed the temper
ance element whose ingratltude turned
on them.
TOLEDO, o., Oct. 10.-Owing to the
great amount of scratching returns
from the city and county up to \. NJ.
are meager, but show that the demo-
Gratis probably elect their entire county
ticket by fair majority. the demo-
Gratis here claim the state by 10000 ma |
jOIity on governor and nearly the same |
figures on the rest OF the state ticket !
The republicansvery generally cOncedc |
the loss of the state, but Clam large |
gains in certain localities. r. e vote |
for the second amendment, though |
heavy, fell short OF the anticipntiOns of |
its friends. Full returns Will not be |
in before morning.
TOLEDO, o., Oct. 10-Returns receiv- |
ed up to | O'Clock this morning are |
but show that the entire dem |
Dcratic ticket OF Lucas county is prob
ably elected by fair majority. The |
state is still in doubt, but the democrats |
are claiming it by 10000 majority on
governor, and nearly the same figures
on the remainder of the ticket. 1t |
is pretty generally conceded that
the second amendment, while getting a
big vote, is very badly showed under
and that the first amendment may pos
5ibly pass through by small majority.
The best informed republicans concede
that the state IS probably lost. although
they have made large gains in certain
localities. The l@pub,ican headquar-
Lers here are deserted, and it is almost
