complete returns. This will give Shaw
majority Of nearly 10000, which is in ex-
cess of that Of two years ago. Chairman

ties and has estimated returns from the
five remaining counties. By this means he
has figured a plurality for Shaw (rep) Of
about s1,7S2 Chairman Walsh, of the
democratic state committee, has given out
no figures. He thinks that errors in the
returns may reduce the plurality for Shaw
to 10000. The legislature is safely repub-

IS are republicans and II populsts and dem

the republicans have elected 81 and the pop

ARE subject to slight variations, probably
to the advantage of the democrats, but they
are essentially safe. The republicans lost
four members in the senate and II in the
house. compared with the last legislature,
which was overwhelmingly republican.
