form in showing an increased vote. IL
many places the increase is very marked
! Another feature shown is that the people
more than ordinarily, were arrayed in two
great parties. Both the Greenback and
Prohibition vote are comparatively insignii

candidate for Supreme Judge, There was
a general belief that he would fall far below
the rest OF the ticket, owing to
disaffection among the saloon men

liquor law. On the contrary it appears he
has been carried fully up with her remainder
ticket and here in Hamilton county his
vote is gre ater than for Robinson Clarke
