THE DOUBTFUL STATES.

In several states the vote was SO close
that the result long remained in doubt ),
and even now the official count may make
some changes.
The "doubtfui" states about which the
greatest interest has centered have been
Kentucky, Wyoming, South Dakota.
Latest returns give Kentucky to Me-
kinney by omething less than 500 plu
rality, though it is believed the electoral
vote will be divided, Mckinley receiving
twelve and Bryan one. This division if
made will be due to the mistake made by
many voters in making the cross opposite
the name OF the first elector on the ticket
instead of over the column. Under the
law he ticket so marked counts for the
elector against whose name the cross is
marked, and for no other. Thus it is that
the first elector on the democratic ticket
has run ahead OF his ticket, and will have
more votes than the lowest of he republi-
can electors.
Wyoming it is believed has been carried
by Mckinley, by a very small ajority.
The closest of all states seems to be
South Dakota, which latest figures give
Ellsworth American. [volume] (Ellsworth, Me.) 1855-current, 1896-11-12

1t IS to be regretted that no record can
be found of Hancock county vote for
Lincoln and Hamlin in 1860, which it is
thought more nearly approached the
Mckinley figures than any of those given.
An interesting fact this year is that IN
spite Of the falling off from The September
election of over 200 in the vote III ELS
worth, the total vote in the county last
week exceeds that of the September cleo
tion by seventy-four votes, and Mckin-
ley's plurality for President is larger than
that of Powers for governor by tWenty-six
votes.
We print this week a table showing the
vote of Hancock county in detail.

CONGRESS ALL RIGHT.
Since concediug the election OF McKin-
ley, the free silver forces have eudeavored
to demonstrate hat they will be able to
control legislation in the next Congress-
Latest figures show that the Senate will
be about equally divided between the
sound money and silver forces. A late
stimate gives the silver forces II votes
and the sound money forces 43, thus leav-
ing the latter in a minority OF three, or
two less than enough to tie the Senate
III Is assumed, however, that among the
members who have, previous to he recent
campaign, allied themselves with the
sound money forces, a sufficient number
Will be secured to give the sound-money
men working majority.
