OHIO.
Columbus, 9.-The election TO-DAY
was for state officers entire with
the exception of secretary of state,
for members Of the legislature and
to vote on three constitutional
amendments, as follows: Regulation
and taxation Of the liquor traffic,
prohibition, and for an intermediate
court. Comparisons are made with
the vote for secretary of state New
man in 1882. The amendments to
carry will have to receive a major
ity of he votes cast for governor.
The weather is fine in all parts of
the state and the indicat ons point
to the largest vote ever polled
in the state. AS con-
sequence the returns will be slow.
At $50, returns have been received
from ten wards and precincts of the
State, showing a net Republican
gain Of p. The first amendment
gives 194 votes and the second 6SS
votes, out Of total of 1,473, being a
small majority. Reports of Cover
nor and the two amendments only
will be sent. Secretary Newman
had majority Of 1915 last year.
There are 1919 wardsland precincts
in the State.
The returns from tWenty-four
wards and precincts show a net
Republican gain of 291. The first
amendment gives 225, second ,916,
out OF 30,S92 votes. These are nearly
all county precincts and small
towns,
Returns from 391 wards and pre-
cincts show Republican gain Of
l ,40s. Nothing further from Gin
cinnati and Cleveland.
An enormous vote has been polled
in this county. Only five precincts
heard from at 10 pm. give net Re-
publican gain OF 202. Both parties
claim the county. The reform
Democratic vote is small, prob bly,
not to exceed 1900 The Republic,
ans claim large gains in the German
wards and say that Foraker will
overcome Newman's majority OF
last year. which was 10,6S9. The
Democrats are equally hopeful that
they have carried the entire county
and the State ticket. Information
is not yet at hand on which to base
an intelligent opinion.
Columbus, 1.-TWO hundred and
fifty seven wards and precincts re
ceiyed at 1920 p ID. give a net Re
publican gain of 11e1.
Dayton, 9.-At this hour I'll pm,
it is safe to say that the entire Dem
ocratic county ticket is elected
There is a slight Republican gain
al round. A heavy vote for the
second amendment.
12.30.-Seventeen precincts of 105
OF this county give Republican
gain of 1851. This is on governor.
No compilation is yet made of the
county ticket on the legislature.
This ratio would give the county to
Hoadley for governor by small
majority.
Clev Gland, 9.-When polls closed to.
night the republicans gave up nearly
every ward and the Democrats
claimed everything in the city and
in the township, but as the evening
progressed the Republicans grew
more hopeful and the Democrats
began to be doubtful. At one o'clock
no ward had been fully counted and
it is not likely the result in the city
can be ascertained definitely before
morning, though it is shown
that the Democrats lost and
gained where least expected. Prob
ably the Democrats elect most, per.
haps all of the county candidates,
but a part of the legislative ticket
is in doubt, and Democrats concede
a loss in the county of 1900.
A jubilee meeting was held in
the tabernacle tonight by the
Women's Christian Temperance
Union. Telegraphic returns
from the State are received
at intervals, and each en-.
couraging bulletin about the
second amendment vote re-
ceived with vOciferous applause
and waving of handkerchief. The
ladies' eyes were opened to much
of the arts and practices of ward
politicians to-day, and their recitals
Of their experience are amusing.
One good woman was in.
expressibly shocked: she said:
at is perfectly wonderful
how dreadful and untruthful gem
tlemen are" AS far as heard, no
indignities were offered the ladies
at the polls, and after the novelty
of their appearance there, little at
tention was paid to them by the
busy and frequently turbulent hust-
lers of both parties.
IOWA.
Des Moines, 9.-The election re-
turns sent to the Associated Press
to. night from here will be compared
with the vote on Secretary of State
in 1882.
Cedar Rapids, 9.-The election
passed off quietly. The weather
was fine till late in the afternoon.
The women worked vigorously at
the polls. A large vote was cast.
1t is probable the Republican major
ity in the county will be seven hum
dred. Two Republican represent
atives are elected. a Republican
senator is probably elected.
