The Result in Ohio,

THE COMPLETE RETURNS
The official vote as returned by the county clerks
to the secretary OF state OF Ohio bas been tabu-
lated. and, while there may be some slight errors
on the vote OF johnson trep.> for judge Of the
supreme court the result OF the october election is
as follows: For congressman the official republican
majority by counties is 4a7l9 for ten members the
official democratic majority by counties 23843 for
eleven members; showing a net republican major
ity OF 1880. A statement published in q sunday
paper footing up these counties and making total
OF some 10000 less for the republican majority
omitted In the calculation 12 391 republican votes
In the nineteenth district. The official republican
majority in that district for E. B. Taylor for Con-
gresS is 1897, and shows that the vote In the
Western Reserve was quite as large as claimed In
Columbus the day after the election The plurality
for Flickinger {rep.) for member OF the board OF
public works, over Benker (dem.), is 17,476. The
total OF the vote for secretary OF state is for
Robinson Cep.> and Il .S4s for Newman DENY, CIV
ing the republicans plurality OF II, 1886 johnson
(rep.), for supreme judge, has 5,l6O. The exact
figures Of the combined prohibition and labor vote
are not given, but as they stand the majority for
Robinson over all will be 1885, The official total
vote Of the state proves to be much less than was
anticipated. It IS ,757, falling over 600 short
OF an estimated 500 OO0
