affairs in most of the states. Eepubli-
cans carried about eyeryth ng bat New
York city and Virginia. Maryland and
Kentucky have both elected Republi-
can governors, a condition Of things
hardly remembered by the Oldest inhab-
itans. Ohio has turned up one of the
biggest Republican majorities in the
history of the state, and New York vot-
ed the same way by about 10000 plural
ity. Iowa rolled up 0,0O0 or more ma
iority for the Republicans, while
Massachusetts did about the same. In
Pennsylvania plurality reaches 5 10000.
In New Jersey Griggs, the Repub-
lican candidate for governor, has a plu-
rality of "a, 300. In Mississippi silver
ties Won a victory. In Kansas Repub-
licans had the best of it generally and
in Nebraska the spoils We're divided.

landslide in Maryland and that the Re-
publicans have elected their entire state
and city ticket and that they will have
a working majority in the next legisla-

Howard county, the home of German,
has apparently reversed its normal ma
jorlty of 500 Ind gives Lowndes (Rep.)

number of votes. Baltimore city goes
for the Republican ticket both state and
municipal, by majorities ranging from
5000 to 5000, and both branches of the
city council will probably be Republican
for the first time in many years. In
fact there is not a leg left for the Demo.
cratic party to stand on in what has
long been considered one of the safest
Democratic states in the Union.

New YORK, Nov. New York state
