Hamilton County Makes Astonish-
ing Republican Gains.
Our Ohio Rooster Disabled by
a Coon,
But the West Virginia Bird Crows
Justify for His Stricken
Companion.

VERY full returns from Ohio are present
ed this morning, and fair estimate OF the
Republican majority can be made. Eight
hundred and twenty-eight voting precincts
of the 1876 in the State have been heard
from and show a net Republican gain Of
l2629 over 1880. In the same ratio the
State will give $4,000 majority. The Re
publican committee claim $4,000 and the
Democratic comitiee comedies 10000. 1t
is probable that the majority will not go
under $4,000 CT over 10000. The Reput-
Icans gain six Congressman and probably
seven.
The bulletins for Ohio are based upon
the vote of 1888, when the Democrats
had majority of 1889. There are | 1892
wards and precincts in the State. 1t will
require an average gain of seven votes to
the ward or precinct for the Republicans to
overcome the Democratic majority and
carry the State.
Everybody Interested at Cincinnatti.
CINCISNATI, October LIT was remark
ed by Judge Kelly, of Pennsylvania, after
canvassing the State that he had never seen
such interest manifested in politics since
1910. All reports received up TO this hour
indicate that if this intensity Of feeling con
tinues, ON enormous vote will be polled,
Each rarty striving not only to get in all its
votes but to get in early. 1t is understood
that Ohio is regarded as the battle-ground

shot a deputy sheriff in the head, causing
a severe wound, bat not fatal In the

Der OF Republican votes being polled. Git

voted is State, local and Congressional, the
issue is national for the reasons above
stated Here the vote will be large. II
