The Election.


how Ohio stands either as to the presl-
Dental or the State ticket. The COM
putations made by the State commit
tees and by the newspapers are TO DC
based upon unofficial, and in most
counties upon partly estimated reports,
Nothing but the entire official count
will disclose the true situation. Then
there is the singular prediction OF
voters in voting against certain electors
of their party which must be taken into
consideration. In vote SO close rs
this it is possible that q portion OF
both tickets might be elected. AS an
instance of the changes from last years
vote the 10Th district which last year
had a republican plurality of 1924, this
wear elects Pearson, democrat, by from
100 to go. The ninth which gave Nc
Kinley 769, elects Richie, democrat,
by a majority of IA, and the 18th dis
trict, which in 1891 gave Mckinley
plurality Of ,269 votes elected lkert,
democrat, this year by 4 reported ma
jority of 1000.
COLUMBUS, o., Nov. 1.-THE ques-
ton as to which party carried Ohio is
now no nearer solution than it was on
the night of the election. The repub-
cans claim the State ticket by over
LOO plurality. The democrats claim
1000 plurality for the Cleveland cleo
tors but do not offer details. 1t now
seems certain the electoral vote will be
divided, caused by errors in marking
the Australian ballot.
WACO, Texas, Nov. 1l.-Judgc Clark
comedies the election of Hogg for Gov
ernor by about $4,000 plurality.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Nov. 1.-The
latest returns seem to place the result
OF the election in this State very much
in doubt. The returns from San Fran
cisco are incomplete and conflicting, but
the latest bulletin gave Cleveland a
plurality in this city of I ,922. The re-
suit of the latest computation made
upon returns from 1,469 out of 1921
precincts outside of San Francisco is
Harrison $3.50, Cleveland 74,H3,
Weaver 1921; Harrison's plurality
7,445. Taking Cleveland's plurality in
San Francisco as Z 1922, it gives Cleve-
land net plurality of Az. There are
still eighteen counties in the State from
which less than two-thirds of the pre-
sincts have reported. These counties
complete gave Harrison in 1888 plu-
rality of $40. According to these figures
it seems the result will depend upon
Cleveland's actual plurality in San
Francisco and the final returns from
the precincts in the interior which
have not yet reported.
FARGO, n. D., Nov. 1.-THE election
of Shortridge, and probably the whole
fusion ticket, is conceded by the repub-
lican central committee. Johnson
(rep.) for Congress, is elected by 1000
plurality. The legislature is republican
on joint ballot by 10.
Sioux FALLS, S. D., Nov. 1l.-Com-
plete returns from 80 counties, and 107
scattering precincts, ave the republi-
can electors plurality of 3S15. The
entire State republican ticket is elected
by somewhat larger vote. The re-
publicans will also control the next leg
islature.
WnEEL1NG, w. Va, Nov Ire
turns from about three fourths of the
State show that the democratic plu-
rality on national and State tickets will
be between 5000 and 1000. All four
of the democratic candidates for Con-
gress are elected by pluralities ranging
from 200 to 900.
BUTTE, Mont, Nov. 11.-Later re-
turns from this State show the election
of the Harrison electors by about 500
plurality. The indications are that the
legislature. will be democratic by one
majority on joint ballot.
ST. LOUIS, Nov. 11.-All the returns
from the far-off counties in the State of
Wyoming indicate the election of Os-
borne dem for Governor by $500 ma
jority. CafIen (dem), Congressman
elect has 200 majority. The republican
committee comedies the legislature to
the democrats. This will insure dem
ocratic U. S. Senator.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Nov. II :-Unoffi-
cial returns from the entire State of
Kansas give Weaver 1927 plurality.
The State ticket is carried by slightly
smaller figure. In the legislature the
republicans have plurality of one over
the populists on joint ballot and the
two democrats in that body control the
balance ssof power. If these figures
stand the democrats hope that the pop
ualists will aid them in electil,g Judge
Martin to the U. S. Senate.
