COLUMBUS, o., Nov. 9.-Unofficial,
but almost complete, returns indicate
that the Republican plurality in Ohio
will exceed that of last year, as we'll as
OF the two previous years, and that the
total vote may exceed $4,000, an en-
cess of 100000 over last year, and of
100000 over 1897.
The Republicans say the result is due
to the endorsement of President Nc
.Kinley and prosperity. None of the
Democratic leaders give any reasons
1t is thought now that Jones may carry
his home county as we'll as that of
'Cuyahoga.
1t is reported the Democrats have

Boston, Nov. 9.-The vote of Massa-
chusetts for governor complete is as
follows: Crane (Rep.) 16s, ,s76; Paine
De1n.) 1o3.S14; Republican plurality,
65,O52.
The vote of 1898 was: Wolcott (Rep. }
191, l46: Bruce Dem.) lo7,9 800. Com
1nent among Republicans is that in ef-
feet the result was an endorsement, on
the part of Massachusetts of the policy of
the national administration in the Phil
ippine islands, On the other hand the
Democrats pointing to the great loss in
the Republican vote claim that Massa-
'chusetts thereby has entered protest
against expansion. Especial emphasis
is laid upon the fact that $4,000 Repub-
icans refrained from voting. The DEM
ocrats are jubilant over the victory in
Boston, which. after giving Republi-
can plurality for governor in the past
three years gave Paine plurality of
the election of a Democratic mayor in
December. The Democrats gain seven
seats in the legislature-two in the SEN
ate and five in the house.
There were many close contests and

Republican gains throughout the state.
The votes cast were for sheriff, county
clerk, county treasurer, register of
deeds. surveyor, coroner and commits
sioner, in each of the 105 counties,
judges in eight judicial districts, judges
of two courts of common pleas and two
state senators to fillvacancies caused by
designations. Very little interest was
taken in the election, and the vote gen.
orally was light. The excitement Incl
dent to the big reception of the Twen-
tieth Kansas regiment no doubt took
the minds of the people off the cam
paign. and the election came before
they could again line up properly for
the political fray.
The Republicans have elected six of
the ten judges and the two state sena-
tors to fill vacancies. John T. Shaney
of Shawnee county, and c. c. Mccarthy
of jefferson. Neither had any opposi-
