The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1900-11-09

Detroit, Nov. 7.-Returns received
up to a. m. from the state indicate a
Republican landslide for Mckinley
and Roosevelt. The count of the votes
is very slow owing probably to the in
dependent voter, who split his ticket
freely. Mckinley will probably re-
ceive 10000 plurality, Bliss 10000 The
indications are that Republicans have
elected IL congressman, although the
contest in the seventh is close. Con-
gresham Jas. w. Fordney of the
eighth district has apparently won out
from Wellington r. Burt, although re-
turns from the remote parts Of this
district are meager. Large Republican
gains were made in Saginaw county
which is claimed for Mckinley by a
plurality of 1900. Congressman H. G.
Smith has apparently defeated NJ G..
Loennecker of Jackson by an estima-
ted plurality Of LOO. Loennecker did
not make the gains he expected in his
own county.
The legislature, according to the re-
turns at hand, will be Republican by a
large majority. Senator Helme and
Senator Ward, Democratic candidates,
are probably reelected.
The constitutional amendment met
with little or no opposition, and it will
be adopted by one of the largest ma
jorities ever cast for such a measure.
Large Republican gains are reported
in Montcalm county, which will give
the Mckinley electors an estimated
plurality. of 100, against S72 four
years ago. Eaton county, which gave
Bryan plurality of 361 four years ago
Is now III the Republican column by a
plurality of probably 1000. Tuscola
gives Mckinley 1900 against 713 in
1895. Jackson county will be found
in the Republican column for McKin.
ley, but will probably give Maybury a
small plurality. Bay Is claimed for
Mckinley by 1000 plurality, against
159 for Bryan four years ago. May.
bury will probably get the county by
$780, Ionia gives Mckinley 1900
against 1876 four years ago. Four years
ago Calhoun county gave Bryan a plu.
rality of 1923. 1t is now claimed by the
Republicans by 800. Bliss will proba.
bly, carry it by 600. Mason county
gives largely increased Republican
plurality.
Wayne County.
Detroit, Mich, Nov. mckinley
has carried the entire Republican tick.
ct to victory in Wayne county. Com.
plete returns from 60 precincts and
eight townships on the o'clock count
indicate Mckinley will have over 1000
plurality in the county.
The Democrats, however, still hope
that Maybury, for governor, will get a
small majority in his home county, and
they are also hoping that State Sena-
tor Monaghan will defeat o. f. Hunt
for prosecuting attorney Besides,
they have some hopes of electing one
or two members of the lower house of
the legislature, and possibly VIM. j.
Lee in the first senatorial district.
Congressman Corliss has defeated
Mai. Jacklin, Democrat, in the first
congressional district. His majority
promises to considerably exceed 1000.

ment is carried by large majority.
Kalamazoo County.
Kalamazoo, Mich, Nov. 7-McKin-
ley carries Kalamazoo county by an
approximate majority Of 1000. 1t

Maybury would be tie. Gardner, Re-
publican, for congress, will carry the
county by safe majority. Bingham,
Republican, is probably elected state
