OHIO.
Nash mepubIican) Elected Governor
H. a Considerable Plurality.


COLUMBUS. o.. November AT 10 p.
NJ the chairmen of both the Republican
and Democratic State committees were
claiming the election of their respective
State tickets and also the Legislature.
Jones is certainly the closest third that
ever entered the Ohio gubernatorial race.
The indications are that he has drawn
more heavily from the Republicans in
the cities than from the Democrats, with
the exception of Columbus and some
smaller cities. and that the Jones vote
will not be so large in the rural districts.
There is not the usual percentage of
either Republican or Democratic gains or
losses. as the gains run for the Repub-
leans in some places and for the Demo
Gratis in other sections.
THE JONES VOTE.
Even after the returns are complete
from Cincinnati. Cleveland, and Toledo,
it may be difficult TO reach the result
positively tonight, owing TO the tide in
the Jones vote, which runs in streaks,
and causes Republican losses in some
places and Democratic losses in other
places.
AT 10 p. NJ Judge Nash claimed his
election as Governor and Chairman Dick
said he was assured the Republicans had
carried everything. but he had no figures
yet to announce.
The Associated Press sent 10 Mr.. Nc
Lean. at his residence, asking II he
claimed his election, and received the
reply that he had no answer yet to make.
Chairman Seward. of the Democratic
Committee, said he was not prepared to
answer the question yet.
