Vote Overcast in This State

cast All Republican, 377 Democratic
and 226 Progressive votes.
With few contests in the Senate and
House. not reported, the Democrats
had only three members Of the upper
branch and 46 in the lower branch of
the Legislature. On joint ballots the
Republicans will have at least 1875
votes and the Democrats 40.
Somerset county elected a Republi-
can sheriff and county attorney.
The thoroughness Of the Republican
victory at the polls Monday was en-
phasized as the returns from isolated
towns and plantations struggled in
Tuesday.
The pluralities for the Republicans.
who will send a solid delegation to
Congress. were practically unchanged
from the figures Of Monday night as
were the pluralities won by Frederick
Hale and Ex-Governor Bert M. Fer
maid, who were elected to the United
States Senate.
The Republicans, who have held a
majority in the State Senate. will now
control both houses by good working
majority. A study Of the returns for
the Legislature show that Franklin
county completely reversed its repre-
sentation in both houses, returning all
Republicans to replace the solid Demo-
cratic delegation. Oxford. which was
represented by one Democratic senator
and four Democratic representatives.
elected all Republican candidates.
County Officers
Four Democratic sheriffs and five
Democratic county attorneys failed Oh
reelection. Somerset co1nty had not
reported early Tuesday and Penobscot
county. which elected a Republican
county attorney, was in doubt in the
matter Of the sheriff chosen.
In the other IA counties the Demo.
Gratis saved but two candidates, Knox
county electing both Democratic sheriff
and county attorney.

from the border and a few isolated
towns increased the plurality of Carl
E. Milliken for Goxernor over Gov.

Gated figures Of $4,000 Monday night
to 1890. Indicated pluraHties for the

that the members of the Second bat
alton of the Second Maine Infantry
made two-days overland march of
30 miles from Zapata county to exer-
Else the franchise. The vote of the
soldiers followed about the percentage
of the vote cast at home.
The country vote as usual controlled
plurality of 81 for Gov. Curtis, as
against a total of 5000 received by
him two years ago.
The two referendum questions on
which the voters expressed their
choice were carried overwhelmingly.
These were the approval of the law
limiting the employment of women
and children to "a hours week and
the bill providing for State and coun-
ty aid in the construction Of highway
bridges.
The ratio apparently was about four
to one for the former and 10 to 1 for
the latter.
Gained PIuraiities in Towns
An interesting feature of the cleo
ton was the vote Of the 20 cities,
which two years ago were Democratic
by 5000 votes. Monday they gave Gov.
Curtis a plurality Of 81, Sen. Johnson
a plurality Of 1885 and Dean Stills a
margin Of only IS. The Republican
pluralities. therefore. were accumu-
lated in the 500 towns. The total vote
