Yesterdays Elections-To-day's Returns
OHIO.
Columbus, o., October 15-Interest in
the election has not abated and crowds
fill the streets. Nothing has been re.
ceived to change the estimate sent last
night. Complete returns are in from
twenty counties. There was never such
promptness before. This indicates few
scatched tickets. There is good deal
of mystery about the prohibition vote
and upon this and the withholding OF
reports from few counties the demo.
Gratis base hope of cutting down the re.
publican majority below $4,000.
The contest for congress in the third
district is very close, but as Morey, re-
publican, ran ahead of his ticket 1872
votes in Clermont county, which makes
change of over 500 in favor of repubIi-
cans, his friends claim his election. The
Indications are that Johnson, republican,
for supreme Judge has 5000 majority
and has run ahead OF the other candi-
dates, notwithstanding the opposition OF
the liquor interest. If this is confirmed
it will show that the temperance demo-
Gratis scratched their own candidates.
Prominent democratic politicians rea-
son as follows about the election: The
heavy republican gains have been in the
city where as the democratic gains have
been in the country. Thus, in Columbus
the republicans gained, but in the back
townships we gained enough to keep
the democratic majority where it was.
This is the case in townships. Other
strong democratic counties are not yet
heard from and the republican majority
will be reduced below 10000. The re-
publican leaders will not concede this,
but they expect reduction below the
high figures claimed last night.
