publican gains oyer 1882. The total

BeresfOrd, for sheriff, ran ahead of his
ticket, as did all the county officers CON-
pared with candidates on the state
ticket.
Returns received from all parts OF the
state are uniform in showing the in
creased vote. In many places the in
crease is very marked. Another feature
shown is that people more than ordInaf-
lily are arrayed In the two great parties
Both the Greenback and Prohibition
vote is comparatively insignificant,
and the vote was as distinctly
marked as If the presidential ticket had
been before the people. A matter Of
great surprise is the large vote received
by the Republican candidate for judge
OF the supreme court. There was q gen.
eral belief that he would fall far below
the rest of the ticket owing to dis6ffec-
ton among the saloon men on
account of his opinions on the
Scott liquor law; on the contrary,
il appears that he has been carried
fully up with The remainder Of the tick
ct and here in Hamilton county his vote
is greater than that for Robinson. Clarke
county is estimated to give 300 Repub-
licsn majority; Seioto county about 700,
with Judge johnson leading the ticket.
Athens county gives GrOsYenor, Repub-
lican for congress, 900 majority. Bel.
laiTe shows a slight Democratic gain.
Gallon, Kent, Coshocton, Lancastes,
Mansfield and 6omerset also
show small Democratic gains. The Re-
publIcans here are jubilant. Crowds
are on the streets, and upon the least
proVocation are
SHOUTING AND SINGING.
A wagon appeared with hand organ
and song and was fol-
lowed by crowd shouting. The ap.
pearance of Ben ButterWorth, con-
gresham elect from the First district,
near the postoffice attracted q large
crowd. He was lifted up and carried
some distance by his enthusiastic sup
porters, and was followed by cheering
crowd until he left the street.

Iican, to congress in the Tenth district.
