Nebraaka RepublIeans.

Lincoln. Neb., Nov. 4.-The entire
Republican state ticket is elected by
10000 plurality. The vote for the 115
precincts in the state gave Barnes,
Rep. 9G42; Sullivan, Fusion, S102. The
same precincts two years ago gave the
Republican candidate 9675; Fusion,
S1O7. a change so slight that it will
require a Fusion landslide from an
unexpected quarter 10 overcome the
Republican plurality Of 10000 of two
years ago. First reports were all fe.
vorable to the Fusionists, but the later
returns almost wiped out the early
gains.
