Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD.
CLEVELAND, Ohio, November 5.-The
election in Ohio was very quiet. In
Cleveland the day was marked with nc
adventure. The Republicans felt sure
that Foraker would be cut here and
there by cautious citizens who think two
terms in the gubernatorial chair quite
enough for any man, and by others who
do not and never will believe that he was
faithful to Sherman in the last conven
ton. The Democrats felt certain thai
Campbell would suffer at the hands o.
those members of his party who swear
by ex-P President Cleveland and tariff re-
form. All this complicated the situa-
ton, and the Republicans were prepared
to hear of Foraker's election by q plu'
rality of 10000, or his defeat by plu'
rality not quite so large, perhaps, but
equally convincing. The whiskey ques.
ton, too, cut no small figure in the
contest. The impression prevailed that
the brewers, distillers and dealers gen.
orally were Democrats this autumn, and
many members of the Democratic party
who are in favor of restricting the liquor
traffic were quite content to vote the Re.
publican ticket, and thus defeat the
purposes of those men who seek to
amend the present liquor law. Here
AGAIN was another complication, and
there was, indeed, no logic in the situa.
ton; it was plain case OF
UNFATHoMABLE UNCERTAINTY.
Early this evening, as the returns
came in from the various precincts
throughout the State, it became evident
that the Prohibitionists were gaining,
which meant loss to the Republicans.
1t was also observed that the Labor party
had lost heavily over the vote of two
years ago, an indication of a large gain
for the Democratic party.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, November 5.-The
election in Columbus was one Of the
most quiet ever experienced in the city
The polls did not close until 6 p, m.
CAMPBELL CARRIES CINCINNATI.
CINCINNATI, November 5.-One hun.
dred and one out of ITO precincts in Gin.
cinnati give Campbell plurality of
2,610. This indicates for the city and
county majority for Campbell of 1886,
which would be Democratic gain in
Hamilton county of II 600. This would
leave little over $4,000 in other por-
tions of the State to ba overcome by
Campbell.
At 12 80 fourteen precincts in the city
have not been heard from. The msjority
for Campbell, without these, was 5,149,
THE GERMAN VOTE DID IT.
CINCINNATI, Ohio, November 5.-The
loss by Foraker of Hamilton county
which gave him a plurality of nearly
1000 two years ago, has been largely
effected by the detection in the German
Republican wards. The losses in single
precincts in some of these wards amount
to more than 200 votes. This result wal
not anticipated by the Republicans
While the losses of Foraker were mo-
confined to these wards, they are much
more marked than in other portions O
the city. The returns also show tina
of the ticket was the thing most severel,
hit by Republican scratchers.
TOO MUCH SUNDAY LEGISLATION.
The Commercial Gazette, commentin,
on the result in Hamilton county, says
''It is the outgrowth of the Sunday ques
ton. Saloon legislation did not seem t.
be disturbing thing, but the rather ba(
administration of the Sunday laws wal
the cause of discomfort among the Ger
mans. The estimate at midnight is tha
Campbell will carry Hamilton county by
over 5000. Four hundred and sixty
three precincts in Ohio outside of Ham
ilton county give Foraker 66,976; Camp
bell, 3,181; Helwig, 1854. The same
in 1887 gave Foraker 5,788; Powell
1886; Sharp, 1852. This shows ar
average gain Of 7S per precinct for Camp
bell.
REPUBLICANS CLAIM THE LEGISLATURE.
CLEVELAND, November Sat IL :3(
the Republicans are positive of having
the Legislature, which, If true, means {
Republican United States Senator in
stead of Henry B. Payne. In the West
ern Reserve the Republicans have
gained almost in every county, and i
Foraker is defeated the southern end o.
the State did it.
THEY DIE HARD.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, November 5.-Chair
man Neal, of the Democratic State Ex
ecutive Committee, claims Campbell'l
election by from 5000 to $1,000 plural
| ity. As to the Legislature he is in doubt
He thinks, however, it may be Demo
cratic on joint ballot. The entire Legis
lative ticket in Hamilton county ID
claimed by the Democrats. Ex- Chair
man Cappeller, OF the Republican com.
mittee, feels confident that Foraker il
elected. He does not concede Hamilton
county to the Democrats by more than
1000 votes, and says the Democratic
gains elsewhere must average FIVE and q
half votes to elect Campbell. He is sure
the Republicans will gain in the country
districts. The Republicans claim they
have the Legislature surely.
SMALL HOPE FOR FORAKER.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, November 6.-1H3(
q. m.-Later returns seem to assure the
Republicans a majority of the Legisla.
ture on the joint ballot. The Republic
can State Committee has issued the fol
lowing:
"The Republican State Executive Com
mittee claims the election Of the Legisla
ture snd State ticket, except Governor
Foraker, who is in doubt. If the Repub'
