Burleigh's Portrait Greeted With Loud
Applause.
POrtland's Answer to Cleyeland's Free
Trade.

Portland Republicans were thoroughly
pleased with the news last night and well
they may have been as the increased plurali-
ties were constantly coming over the wires.
The day, which opened rather sultry, with
fog and heavy clouds, indicating rain, had
one effect, If no other, of keeping at home
any Republicans who might have felt in
clined to go on. that excursion to Centre
Harbor, and they consequently stayed at
home and helped add to the Republican plu-
ralities.
All through the day there was constant
stream In and out of the ward rooms. 1t be-
came known at an early hour that the Demo-
. Gratis were determined to strain every nerve
to carry Portland for Putnam, if possible,
and wipe out Reeds old majority. 1t is un-
derstood that large sums of money were sent
here to buy up voters, if they could be
bought, $4,000 arriving Saturday. 1t is
claimed that many men were openly solicit
ed on the street by Democrats for their
votes, for money, six to eight dollars being
offered. It is alleged that the large sum Of
$1,000 was. expended in Ward /, which ex-
plains the reason of the ward going Demo-
cratic by q small plurality. But Doodle was
Of no avail. The Republicans were up and
doing and the result was the largest vote
pclled In Portland Of which we have record
-7oo5-Burleigh receiving plurality of J25,
while Reeds plurality for Congress is placed
at $50, he running very much ahead of the
ticket. sf
There were many stickers employed, and
the, resplt was a long count for the ward
clerks. 1t will be seen BY. the returns that
these stickers played an important part lin
determining the pluralities received by diff
terent candidates. Sheriff Webb, it will be
seen. received over thousand plurality. In
comparing the Mr.. Reed had in 1886
with that Of this year, it will be seen that
the vote of this year is largely increased.
After 10 a. m. the skies cleared and the day
was one Of the most beautiful with which
September fayors us. The Prohibitionist
vote did not appreciably increase from its
usual figures although. from an early hour
the committee left envelopes containing cir
culars and ballots on doorsteps all over the
city. There was little, If any, disorder man
ifested in the election. all effort made being
good natured.
We append the city vote as follows:

At the start it promises little but it develops

of delineation. ="
