ernor, over Caine, Democrat, by 1000 to
1900 majority. Roberts, Democratic can
didate for congress, is probably elected
over Allen, Republican, by 500 majority.
The legislature will be safely Republican,
which assures two United States senators
for the party. The state constitution was
adopted by an overwhelming majority.
And Kentucky Too.
What seems like one of the impossibili-
ties of the general result is the fact that
William d. Bradley, Republican, was elect
ed governor of Kentucky by plurality of
1000 or 5000 over p. Wat Hardin, Demo-
crat. This result is due in part to the
course of Hardin in accepting his nomina-
tion on sound money platform, and then
coming out as free silver man. The
greatest surprise of the election is in the
probable control of the lower house of the
legislature by the Republicans. The re-
turns indicate the election of 80 Republican
representatives and Al Democrats, while
nine seats are in doubt. The Democrats
elect nine senators and the Republicans 10,
but the holdover senators may give the
Democrats small majority on joint bal
lot.
Tammany I'm New York City.
In New York city the issue was between
the Tammany or regular Democratic nomi-
nees and the Fusion ticket, supported by
the Republicans, the state Democracy and
the committee of fifty. The Tammany
candidates were elected by pluralties rang.
ing from 5000 to 10000. The enormous
foreign electorate of the metropolis, the
masses of whom are favorable to the sale
of liquor on Sunday, which Tammany
made the issue of its campaign, no doubt
accomplished this regrettable result. The
Tammany men elected are Justices of the
supreme court, Charles H. Truax, Freder-
ick Smyth and Charles +. Mclean; coun-
ty clerk, Henry d. Purroy; register, Will
liam Sohmer; judges of the court of gener-
al sessions, Martin 1. Mcmahon and Jo-
seph K. Newburger; justices of the city
court, Robert A. Van Wyck, John P.
Other than these the city remains in Re-
publican control.
The Good Government clubs and the in
dependent county organization, both of
whom expected to poll a large vote, cut
little figure, the former barely averaging
one vote in each election district, and the
latter having total of about 1000.
Mayor Pingree's Victory In Detroit.
Mayor Pingree of Detroit won a notable
victory over his opponents Tuesday. Two
years ago he defeated the most popular
Democrat in Detroit by almost 5000
majority but now he defeats the So
cialistic Labor candidate nominated by the
order of Don NJ. Dickinson by more than
10000 majority, and carries with him II
or Is of the aldermanic candidates of the
16 wards of the city.
In Mississippi McLaurin, Democrat, was
elected governor by about $4,000 plurality
In Brooklyn. n. Y, Wurster, Republ-
can, was elected mayor by upward of about
2500 plurality.
The Virginia election was for members
of the legislature. The vote was light and
there are about the usual Democratic ma
jorities.
In Kansas the only official voted for was
chief justice of the supreme court. David
Martin, Republican, the present candidate,
was chosen by large majority.
The Republican victory in Ohio grows
steadily as the returns come in. The plu-
rality for Bushnell has climbed to ia, 900.
The Republicans will have majority of 81
on Joint ballot in the legislature.
