publican candidate an overwhelming
plurality
In Michigan the election resulted in a
reduced vote for the republican tlctet
The free-silver papers of Detroit concede
the State to Mckinley by $4,000 The
last previous vote in the State was in 1898
when Moore, the republican candidate for
justice of the Supreme Court. has plu-
ralitv of Il 49, over McGrath, his demo
cratic opponent.
The plurality for Mckinley in Maryland
is estimated at p ae:a',,
West Virginia is confidently claimed by
the republicans and the chairman of tie
democratic State central committee con-
cedes the State to Mckinley.
Tennessee presents some of the inter-
e ting features of the campaign. Patter
son, the gold democratic candidate for
Congress in the city of Memphis, is run
ming neck and neck with his opponent,
and the official count will be necessary to
decide between them. The State at large
is probably for Bryan.
North Carolina is claimed by both par
ties, but is probably for Bryan.
South Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi,
Alabama and Louisiana are all for Bryan
by about the normal democratic ma jorities
The Virginia electors will be for Bryan,
but they have been elected by largely
reduced democratic vote.
The republicans have abandoned all
hope of Texas and the State is conceded
to Bryan, the fusion between the populists
and the republicans there not having
proved a success.
Nebraska has gone for Bryan, notwith
standing the republican claims.
Wisconsin is sure for the republican co.
umn by a large plurality.
Minnesota, which was regarded as doubt
full by both parties, has surprised every
body by the size of its republican plurali-
ty, and Mckinley will have approximate
10000 or 10000 more votes in the State
than Bryan. Governor Clough, whose
election was considered doubtful is GER
tanly elected.
The latest information from the two
Dakotas show that North Dakota is sure
for Mckinley and South Dakota will,
doubtless, be found in the same column.
The republicans claim Wyoming and
Washington, but the probabilities arc
against them in both States.
Oregon has gone for Mckinley and Colo
RADIO, as was expected, has given Bryan a
heavy plurality. The interest in the cleo
ton in that State centcred in the State
ticket, of which there were several, repre-
senting great variety of interests.
Idaho, Montana, Utah and Nevada have
all gone for Bryan.
California has undoubtedly gone for
Mckinley, the city of San Francisco Civ
ing him plurality of 6,907.
Delaware, where the republican party
has been rent in twain because of the Adj
dicks Higgins fight, has kept in the repub
lican column.
