The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1899-11-09

showed that the Democrats had been
successful in all three.
In the House of Delegates the Dem
ocrats will probably have 68 members
and the Republicans 21, with the two
from ST. Mary's county still in doubt.
The results so far indicate the cleo
tion of Delegates as follows:
Democrats-Anne Arundel, 1; Bal
timore city, IS; Baltimore county, 6;
Carroll, 4; Cecil, 3; Caroline, 2; Dor
/ chester, 3; Frederick, 5; Hartford, 4;
Howard, 2; Montgomery, 3; Prince
| Georges, 3; Queen Anne's, 3; Talbot,
3; Washington, 2; Wicomico, 3; Wor-
cester, 3-making the total IS.
Republicans-Anne Arundel, 3; AL
legany, 5; Calvert, 2; Charles, 2; Gar
rett, 2; Kent, 2; Washington, 2; Som
erset, 3-making the total 81.
Doubtful-St. Mary's 2.
WASHINGTON COUNTY.
HAGERsTowN, Nov. 9.-The result
of the election in this county was a
great surprise to the Republicans and
especially Senator McComas. The
late returns gave Smith a majority of
43. b. Abner Belts, Dem, defeated
Charles ID. Wagaman, Rep, for the
State Senate by 272 majority. Each
party elected two to the Legislature
Albert L. Long and d. H. Stanley,
Democrats, and Joseph W. Wolfinger
and Chas. 6. Biggs, Republicans, be-
ing successful, the latter by small
majority.
The Democrats elect two County
Commissioners, Joseph Ernest and
George NJ. Bushey, and the Republi-
cans elect one Commissioner, Isaac
Ankeney, jr Bushey only defeats
Abram Albert (Rep.) by four votes,
and it may require the official count
to decide it. W. l.. Hammond and
Aaron D. Sager, Democrats, were
elected Judges of the Orphans Court
with the election of John Clark, the
other Democrat, in doubt. Elias
Cost, his opponent, it is claimed, has
a "mall majority.
Thomas A. Poffenberger, Demo
cratic candidate for Congress in the
Sixth District last fall, defeated Alex.
r. Hagner for States Attorney by 50
majority. Bruce Zeller, Republican,
was elected Sheriff over B. Frank
Winder by 1874 majority. Elmer Pi-
per, the Republican Surveyor, was
reelected.
FREDERICK COUNTY.
FREDERICK, Nov. S.-For the first
time since 1891 Frederick county has
given a small Democratic majority.
Complete returns from every district
in the county give John Walter Smith
majority of 107. Worthington,
Dem, has majority of $50 over Harp,
Rep, for States Attorney, and Rohr-
back, Dem, is elected Senator over
Col. d. G. Winebrenner by 100 major
ity. The remainder of the county
ticket is very close majorities, rang
ing from 40 to so in favor of the Dem
ocratic candidates.
Anders, Rep, for County Commits
sioner, and Willard, Rep, for House
of Delegates, have run ahead of their
ticket, and it will require an official
count in these cases to determine the
result.
MONTGOMERY COUNTY.
ROCKVILLE, Nov. S.-Returns are
not in from all the districts, but esti-
mating on those already received,
Colonel Smith will have 400 plurality
in Montgomery county. The entire
Democratic county ticket is elected.
In Allegany county the entire Re-
publican ticket with the exception of
the candidate for Register of Wills
was elected. The county igave Gov.
Lowndes a majority of but $50.
The Garrett county returns will be
found elsewhere in this paper.
OHIO is FOR NASH.
