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 Ohio since the civil war. 1t
has been won on national issues. 1t
would not have been a surprise two
weeks ago, but after the action of con-
gress there seemed to have been such
reaction that the overwhelming vote is
surprise. The Democrats did not sl-
low the contest to 60 by default, but
made most vigorous fight, with har-
monious working forces. Ex-Governor
Campbell canvassed the state for
Lawrence T. Neal oil last week, and the
Democratic committee was hopeful after
congress reached decisive action.
FULL VOTE PoLLED.
The weather was pleasant all over the
state, and there was full vote of over
100000. The decisive results Of former
years have been because OF small votes,
those of one party or the other not turn
ing out, but the voters we're out today
all over the state, and Mckinley has q
majority over all, with Democratic, Pro-
hibtion and Populist tickets opposed to
him. This is the first majority over all
any state candidate has had since Fos-
ter's election just after Garfeld'a death
in 1881.
AN ELEMENT OF DANGER.
The Republicans are apprehensive on
one part their victory. Ihe legislature
selected today does not SELECT United
States senator, and it IL over two-thirds
Republican, the strongest since the war.
With euch large working majority
they fear such legislation by the city
members as may lead to defeat two
years hence, when another Legislature ia
to be selected that will choose Senator
Brice's successor.
M'KfNLEy FOR PREsIpENr.
No more doubt beiug held at mid !.
night, headquarters are be ns aban-
doned and meetings held nominating
Mckinley for president, in speeches by
Boutelle, Dolliver, Horr, Chairman Dick
and others.
After the returns became known the
places for receiving news changed into
jollification meetings and speeches were
made by Chairman Dick, Congressman
Dolliver of Iowa. and others eulogizing
of Mckinley as the man of destiny, and
nominating him for president.
MAKE IT UNANIMOUS.
Chairman Seward of the Democratic
state committee was seen just after mid
night. He had no statement to make
on the result. Hc and Colonel Taylor,
Democratic candidate for lieutenant
governor, were discussing laughiDRly
Meals motion to make it unanimous."
