TUESDAYS ELECTION.
lONNDES The NEXT GOVERNOR
A Land Slide i'm the State-HarfOrd
Still True as Steel-The Next
Legislature Will be
Republican.

Last Tuesdays election was a sur
prise and disappointment to the Dem
ocrats. The cry of ''Gormanism" had
its effect, and many of the best think
ing people of the State were disap
pointed at the result.
More scratching of tickets was in
dulged in at this election than has
been known for many years, and the
returns were consequently slow com
ing in. 1t was known by midnight Oh
Tuesday in the city that Lowndes
was elected, and later that the entire
Republican State ticket was elected
by from 10000 to 5000 majority.
The Republicans will elect a United
States Senator to succeed Charles H
Gibson.
The Republican candidate fol
Mayor and the whole city ticket was
elected in Baltimore.
The entire Democratic county ticket
was elected in Hartford county by d
small majority. This is one of the
few counties in the State that made
this record.
Lowndes has carried Allegany coun.
ty by at least the majority that Wei
lington had last year, when he got
about 1000 majority.
Baltimore county has also fallen
under heavy Republican majority
Conservative estimates placed by both
Republicans and Democratic leaders
place the formers majority between
600 and 1000. There was also great
deal of splitting in the Democratic
ranks on the county ticket, and the
Republicans claim that they have
carried this also.
Caroline has probably given the Re,
publican State ticket a majority. The
Democrats carried the county ticket.
Talbot county is conceded to be Re
publican by $50 majority. Easton
district so far is so Republican.
The heaviest vote every known was
polled in Garrett county. Oakland
district, as well as Deer Park, so fa1
as counted, show a big heavy Repub.
lican increase. The majority for
Lowndes may reach 700.
In Dorchester it was a Republican
landslide. Seven districts show large
Republican gains, and the local Dem,
ocratic ticket is showed under. The
Republican State ticket will have a
majority of at least 200, probably 300.
Returns from Montgomery county
show that Lowndes and Henderson
ran ahead of their respective tickets.
The entire Democratic local ticket is
probably elected.
j. ID. Uric, who was on both Repub,
lican and Prohibition tickets in Kent
county, is elected States Attorney
over Stay, Democrat, by about 100
The Republicans carry Kent by about
%. Charles L. Westcott, Republican,
has probably defeated James Alfred
Pearce for the State Senate.
The Republicans carried Somerset
for the State ticket by about 200, and
for the county by about 100.
Anne Arundel has been carried by
Lowndes by 90 votes. J. Writ Ran
dali, Republican, has been elected
Senator by over 100 votes. DR.. George
Wells, Democrat, defeats DIR. w. G.
Tuck, Republican, 70 votes for the
Clerk of the Court James R. Bra,
shears, Democrat, is elected States
Attorney by 40 votes. The Demo
cratic Legislative ticket is in doubt,
as we'll as Sheriff and the rest of the
county candidates, and it will take
the official vote to decide who are
elected in this county outside of the
Clerk of the Court. the States Attor-
ney and Senator.
The margins in Hartford county are
very close, and it was only the excel
lence of the men ON the ticket that de-
cided the contest for the Democrats.
The Republicans had nominated a
strong ticket, and any defects or dis
satisfaction with the Democratic can
didates would have turned the scale.
