IN giving the returns Of the

dispatches speak of Republican
gains This is misleading. Such
gains are estimated upon the basis
of the Republican and Democratic
vote of 1880, when Hancock had a
plurality Of ,l4S. This vearthe
Republican vote is combined with
the vote of the greenbackers. Han
cocks majority over Garfield and
Weaver was only 2069. In 1882
the Republicans and Greenbackers
combined upon Supreme Court
judge, and the Democratic majority
was only 3211. The Hancock ma
