Pawtucket tribune. (Pawtucket, R.I.) 1890-189?, 1891-11-04


II is Patent to everybody that the work
Of the Democracy in Boston saved Russell
and the party from what might have been
. very close call had it been reduced
materially from last year.
The vote was never so late in coming in
. as this year. The law requiring two
separate counts Of the ballots TO ensure
greater accuracy caused intcrminable de-
lays, and the votes Of many Of the large
cities did not come In until after . o'clock
In complete detail.
The vote in the state was extraordinarily
heavy. The indications are that it may
reach 3l5,000, n gain of $4,000 over last
year.
Returns for the Legislature
are necessarily as incomplete as for the
head of the ticket. Only one senatorial
district is complete, the Cape, in which
Senator Smpkins is reelected. There is
no doubt Of the reelection OF Senators
Champlin, (R.) Reade, 3D. McNary (D)
and West (R.) in Suffolk; Raymond, (R)
Gilman, R) Mcdonald, 3D. Wyer, R.)
Fernald, Or aud Drury 3D. of Mddlesex;
Brickett 3D. and Southwck (R) of Es-
SEX Nutter (R.) of Plymouth, Howard (D)
of Bristol; Cooke 3D. and Pinker,on R)
Of Worcester, Smith (R) of Worcester
Hampshire, Clark (R.) of Franklin, Brown
DD of Hampton, and Kimball D.) Of
Berkshire Hampshire. and the election of
Carberry (D) in Suffolk, Baker (R.) and
Dame (R.) and Mead (t) in Essex, Wy
man R.) in Norfolk: Arnold (R) in Ply
mouth: Mott (t.) and Butler (R.) in Bris-
tol; Merritt 3D. in Hampden; and Nc
Donald 3D. } In Berkshire. The senate will
probably stand "a TO 25 Republican TO Is or
10 Democrats.
Concerning the house, the chief feature
Is the reelection Of Speaker Barrett by a
plurality OF over 800, more than double his
plurality OF last year, after one of the
hardest fights against him. Mr.. Handley
ef Acton, the senior member Of the house,
10 defeated.
Mr. Powers Of Hyde Park, prominent
member this year, and l. w. Mccall Of
Winchester, prominent in former years,
are elected, and Mr.. Ensign of Watertown
10 chosen to stay at home. Returns for
tho house show very few complete dis
tricts, but seem to indicate n slight Re-
publican gain in membership.
The executive council will probably
stand, rs for somo years past, seven Re-
publicans TO one Democrat.
The Latest Returns

The seme towns gave Allen 80, ,3Os and

The cities outside Of Boston gave Rus

that Russell will this year have 10000
votes and Allen $500 thus making the
