EAST SAGINAW, Oct l6.
Blaine has received the following despatch
from the chairman of the Ohio republican
state committee:
1.-The majority for Robinson for secretary
will be between IL 900 and 2,000," but that
does not indicate the actual republican major
ity so clearly as the vote for representatives to
Congress in the several di istricts. Robinson
was cut considerably on the liquor question,
but the real line of political division between
the two parties was shown by the Congress
ional vote, on which is now estimated the re-
publican majority will be between $4,000 and
$4,000. The accurate figures will be given in
a few days
