governor is buried under a plurality for
Wolcott of 155, 1873. Only two towns in
the entire state were carried by Williams
Blackstone and Alford-the former by
10 plurality and the latter by plurality of
one. Every town in the state went Repub-
lican on the presidential vote except AL
ford where the vote was tie. All of the
13 congressman but one are Republicans.
The legislature is overwhelmingly Repub-
lican. McKinley's plurality in Boston was
1896 and Wolcott's 17,777.
New Hampshire.
The Granite state more than doubled the
figures of $1,000 Republican plurality set
for her. With 13 towns to hear from Nc
Kinley has 54,733, Bryan 20,239, Palmer
3243, Bryan and Watson 351, Levering
521, Bentley "a, Matchett 81; McKinley's
plurality $4,000. For governor the plural
ity of Ramsdell, Republican, is 1884.
Sulloway's plurality for Congress in the 1st
district is 10, 442 and Clark's in the Cd 12,-
255. The Republicans elected 280 MEM
bers of the house of representatives, and
the Democrats 76. The pluralties are the
largest ever secured by the Republicans in
New Hampshire.
Connecticut's vote was an avalanche.
McKinley's plurality is 81, 142, almost as
great as Bryan's entire vote which was &c.
1S4. In 1892 Cleveland's plurality was
1858, so that this years vote indicates a
Republican gain of 59,508, not exceeded in
proportion by any other state in the Union.
Bryan carried but three towns in the state.
Names majority for Mckinley will be
just about the same as for the Republican
ticket at the state election-a little rising
of 10000.
The Victory I'm other States.
The two great states of New York and
Pennsylvania are vieing with each other
for the largest Mckinley plurality, and the
race is almost neck and neck. Present in
dications are that New York will stop at
the mark of 270,000, while Pennsylvania
may go to 2S0,000. Every county in New
York gives a Republican plurality.
In Illinois, which the Bryanites have in
sisted on calling debatable ground, the VIC
tory is as great in propoTti0" and McKin-
ley's plurality will be nea, quite 175,-
600.
McKinley's own state of Ohio stands by
him handsomely with plurality which
! will be at least 50,0 The largest Repub-
| lican plurality ever given a president in
Ohio was $4,000 for Garfield in 1880. Re-
publicans still claim this will be doubled.
In spite of all claims to the contrary In
diana has gone Republican by at least 20,-
600. The Republican gains average nine
to the voting precinct. The Republicans
lost in the southern part of the state, but
gained heavily in the northern part.
Iowa's Republican plurality will not vary
much from $1,000
I Michigan is one of the states confidently
claimed by the Bryanites as doubtful, but
her Mckinley plurality is upward of 25,-
600. In 1892 the electoral vote was divided
between Harrison and Cleveland.
Minnesota, another of Mr.. Bryan's
doubtful states, gives Mckinley $4,000
to 10000 majority, and the Republican
state ticket is also elected.
The vote of Maryland is one of the in
teresting features of the general result,
Cleveland carried the state by plurality
of 2l, 1870, while this year Mckinley has
plurality of slightly over 21 900 in the city
of Baltimore alone, and the total in the
state will be $4,000 or more. The state
elects a solid Republican delegation to Con-
gress.
Delaware is safely Republican by small
majority. ~
