Overwhelming Republican victories hay'
been the result in every state except Mary
land, Virginia and Kentucky.
IN OHIO
Governor Mckinley has the largest majo-
rity or plurality ever given to any man
elected Governor of that State. The late
returns show that he has 100000 plurality
over Neal and 10000 majority over all his
three opponents. The Legislature is over
whelming Republican, and stands as fol-
lows: Senate, Republicans, 8; Democrats, 5
House, Republicans. 95; Democrats, IL.
Out of eighty-eight counties in Ohio Nc
Kinley carried sixty four, and in many OF
the others was only a few hundred behind
Neal.

IN MASSACHUSETTS
the Republicans swept the State OF Mass
achusetts as clean as they used to do twenty
years ago before anything like a formidable
opposition had arisen to dispute their poll
ticafsupremacy.
The bestestimates now place Greenhalge's
plurality between $1,000 and $4,000 The
has apparently deadened interest in the size
of the majority and but little effort is being
made to determine the exact figures. The
result was. surprise to the Republicans
and Democrats alike, from which neither
appear to have yet recovered.
The landslide is attributed by those Dem
ocrats who will talk about it to the present
industrial depression, aided by the fact that
Massachusetts is normally Republican
State.
The Prohibition vote did not differ mate
rally from last years figures, but the Pop
ulists managed to increase their vote 100
per cent. The socialist labor vote was in
significant.
IN SOUTH DAKOTA
the Republicans have made a complete
sweep of the state, electing three Superior
Court Judges, eight Circuit Court Judges
and twenty-o Commissioners.
Not even 20 per cent of the usual vote
was polled. Independents show great
losses.

have carried 65, and probably 6S of the SO
couties, insuring Republican majority of
nearly 80 on joint ballet in the Legislature.

Gavernor has plurality Of the entire state

whole people were more or less concered,
and that the result is not due merely to the
feeling III the manufacturing districts.

majority of nine. Sussex County for the
first time in its history went Republican,
and to the astonishment of the entire state,
Senator ,icheal T. Barret, elected three
years ago by 1861, was defeated. He was
one OF the anti-race track Democratic
Senators.
IN MARYLAND
the election resulted in the usual majorities
of an "off year." Compared with the ex-
traordinary Democratic majority at the
state election two years ago there is fall
ing off. But at that election there was no
serious opposition to the Democratic ticket.
On Tuesday the majority on the state ticket
was about $4,000, against some 1000 four
years ago. Seven counties gave Repubh-
can majority and fifteen gave Democratic
majority. In the Legislature OF 1892 the
Republicans were scarcely represented, haV-

four hold-over senators. On Tuesday six
Republicans Senators were elected in the
counties OF Garrett, Allegheny, Calvert,
