OUT FOR OHIO ILREI1Y

The B. & O. Red Book for Ohio,
1883, is out, and is beyond ques-
ton the cleverest of all issues of this
popular political text book. Itwould
be difficult to imagine a more COM
plete showing of the recent elections
than is made in the Red Book. Not
only are the regular tables of compar-
isons introduced in full detail, but
special tables as well, embracing
everyfeature Of possible interest. For
instance, in one table, the vote of
each party is shown by years back to
and including the presidential cleo
ton of 1880, each result being com
pared by counties with that of 1888.
Another table Of much intrest is that
in which Hoadley's vote is compared
with the vote of the Democratic can
didates for Governor back to Bishops
time, A third special table shows
FOraker's vote by comparison with
Fosters in 1881 and 1870, and Vests
in 1877. The Prohibition vote, and
the vote for the Prohibition amend
ment, is digested to the clearest and
fullest detail, and throughout the lit
tie book it is model of compilation.
To prepare and publish so exhaust
i've a work in so short a time follow
ing the election, was an enterprise no
other company but the B. & o. would
have thought Of While political text
books issued for sale will not essay
any showing Of the Ohio election
until the first of the new year, here is
the Red Book, with a much more
elaborate and complete showing than
any of them viii attempt, out less
than a month after the memorable
contest at the polls, and to be had,
postpaid, for the mere written re-
quest to c. X. Lord, Baltimore. All
the returns are from the official re-
ports to the Secretary of State. In
addition, the new Red Book contains
the full list of members Of the u. S.
Senate and House ofRepresentatives
of the past, as well as the incoming
| congress, Governors of states, date Of
IcOnvening of legislatures, and in fact
almost no end of political informa-
ton. 1t is indeed a valuable volume
for the pocket or the desk of all inter
! ested in such matters.
