ed governor OF Ohio tor three years by
a plurality running above 10000. over
Governor Myron r. iIerrick. of Cleve-
land. Republican. is settled. as also is
the Democratic working majority In
both houses of the state legislature.
but there is still some uncertainty as
to the rest of the state ticket.

rick. for he held a lead over the re-
mainder OF the Republican ticket un-
til yesterday. when fuller returns from
country regions cut In to Herrick's
vote severely. and by evening Herrick
seemed to be 10000 votes behind the
rest of the Republican ticket II that

fees other than governor will depend
on the size of Pattison's plurality.
with the chances in favor of the choice
OF the entire Democratic roster.
Chairman CARRIER. Of the Democratic
committee. figured pluralities for Pat
tison that aggregate close to $4,000.
II these figures hold true. the entire
Democratic ticket is elected. The Re
publicans have given out no later es.
timates than those of Chairman Dick.
ccnceding the election OF Pattison by
25.000 plurality
Republican estimates give the Dem.
ocrats from two to five majority in
the next senate and from 10 to Is In
the house. The Democratic claim Is
a majority of five in the senate and OF
