Ihe Majority for Wilson is a Splendi'

The Majority for Wilson is a Splendid
One.
HUNTERSvlLLE, October 2l.- Exclusive
The following is the vote of this county
for the State ticket, together with the State
Senate from this district and House Of Del
egates:
For Governor, Wilson 799, Maxwell $685.
for Auditor, Duffy sos, Burt 395; for
Treasurer, Thompson sO4, Sturm 399; for
Attorney General, Caldwell 8O4, Hutchin-
son 399; for Superintendent Of Schools,
Morgan SOL, Kendall 399; for Judge of Su-
preme Court, long term, Snyder 795, Flick
iO5; short term, Woods 1874, Brown 4Ol;
for State Senate, Gwinn sol, Knight 81;
for House OF Delegates, Dorr 600, Hamrick
i6l.
Run Ahead.
Flick and Brown run a few votes ahead
of their party, it being on account OF the
Flick amendment cry and the Intelhgencer
contempt case.
Mr.. Hamrick, the Independent-Republi-
can Greenback candidate ran considerably
ahead of his party. We feel assured that
Dow, Democrat, is elected. We think that
Webster county will give him majority.
The canvass was quite lively in this coun-
ty on account of candidates and the boast
of the Republicans that they would carry
the State.
The amendment to the constitution re-
ceived 647 votes to l67 against. The whole
number of votes polled was 1908, being
the largest number ever cast in the county.

A LIVERY MAN WHO IS SAD.
A Young Mans Shrewd Trick to De-
lay Pursuit While He Makes
OFF With
A SPANKING TEAM OF HORSES.

ZASEsyILLE, O., October al Exolu-
siye lon Saturday afternoon young
gentleman tolerably well dressed called at
Coyles livery stable and stated that he had
a set of buggy harness nearly new, that he
would sell for Sls. Mr.. Coyle, supposing
that everything was straight, agreed if the
harness were as represented he would take
them at that price. The young man stated
that the harness were in Adams township
and asked Coyle to let him have a rig to
60 out and bring them in to which Coyle
agreed. On Sunday morning the harness
were brought in and paid for. The young
man then ostensibly hired rig to attend
the funeral of his uncle which he said oc-
CURED that day. The SlS set Of harness
was put on the horses and the young man
departed. He is still attending the funeral
it TO be supposed. An officer has gone out
with warrant to attend the same solemn
ceremony.
Something New.
A new development was made to-day
when it was learned that a young man,
whose name was not learned, has been in
the employ of Mr.. Harrison Slater, in Ad-
ans township, for some time On Satur,
day last the term for which he hired expired
That night some one broke into Mr., Sla-
ter's buggy house and carried away two S is
Of harness, one single and the other double.
Further investigation reveals the fact that
the harness bought by Mr.. Coyle is the
harness stolen from Harrison Slater, so
both gentlemen are now interested in the
early arrival ofthe young man who wanted
to attend his uncles funeral.
