GOOD FOR OHIO.
Mckinley Has $4,000 Plurality and
Clear Majority.

a (ieaF majority.
COLUMBUS, Nov. With plurality of
$4,000 and two-thirds of both branches of
the Legislature Mckinley has. won the
most decisive victory recorded in Ohie
since the civil war. 1t has been won on
national issues. 1t would not have been
surprise two weeks ago, but after the
action of Congress there seems to have
been such reaction that the overwhelming
vote is a surprise. The Democrats did not
allow the contest 10 20 by default, but
made the most vigorous fight with bar
moniouS working forces. Ex-Governor
Campbell canvassed the State for Law
renee T. Neal all Of last week and the
Democratic committee was hopeful after.
Congress reached decisive action.
The weather was pleasant all over the
State and there was full vote Of over
100000. The indeclslve results of former
years have been because of the small votes,
those of one party or the other not turn
ing out, but the voters were out to-day all
over the State and Mckinley has major
ty over all with Democratic, Prohibition
and POpulist tickets opposed to him.
This is the first majority over all that any
State candidate has had since Fosters
The Republicans are apprehensive on one
part of their victory. The Legislature
elected to-day does not select the United
States Senator and it is over tw0-thirds
Republican, the strongest since the war.
With such large working majority they
fear such legislation by city members as
may lead to dafeat two years hence, when
another Legislature is TO be selected that
will choose Senator Brice's successor.
No more doubt of the result is held at
midnight. The headquarters are being
abandoned and meetings are held. nomi-

CHARLES DICK,
Chairman Republican State Committee.
Chairman Seward of 1.-THE Democratic
State Committee was seer just after mid
night. he had no statement to make con-
cerning the result. He and Colonel Tay-
lor, Democratic candidate for Lieutenant
Governor, were discussing laughingly
Meals motion to "make it unanimous"
The precincts for the cities reported at
s 80 P. M. all show Republican gains that
would indicate that McKinley's plurality
of q, 900 two years ago would be doubled,
but the rural districts will not show such
gains. If the ratio of gains in the cities is
kept up McKinley's plurality will exceed
$4,000. The Republican managers even
now concede nothing less than double his
former plurality.
COLUMBUS, Nov. 8.-After the nature of
the returns became known places for re-
ceiving the news changed into jollfcation
