Special Dispatch to The T1bs.ns

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 3.-Completo
returns from Indiana's 1884 precincts
as unofficially tah,lated tonight, show
chat Senator Harding carried the state
over Cox by a plurality OF 1872
1otes. The plurality OF Warren T.
McCray, Republican, for Governor
over Dr.. Carlton B. McCulloch. Demo
crat, was 1S0,S59, while James E. Wat
son, Republican, was reelected to the
United States Senate over Thomas
Taggart, Democrat, by a plurality of
166,997.
Reports from the Sd Congressiona
District tonight were to the effect
that the Republicans had overcome the
carly Democratic lead and that James
W. Dunbar had been reelected to Con
gress by plurality OF Approximately
$500.
Win All Congress Seats
The election Of Dunbar gives the
hepubIlcans thirteen seats in the House
OF Representatives. 1t is the second
tlme IN the history Of the state that
the Republicans have held all the
seats, it being duplicate of the 1918
election in this respect
The returns throughout to-day were
somewhat below the super-landslid in
dications of election night, when it
seemed probable that Senator Harding
had carried Indiana by about 1000
TO 100000 votes.
Much comment was heard to-day BY
candidates, party workers and voters
on the unusual quiet at the election in
Indianapolis. No arrests due to any
irregularities or misconduct at the
polls were made and no disturbances
Of any kind were reported. Even in
the precincts where rough work" has
accompanied the voting III tho past,
quiet and order prevailed.
Cleanest Election Ever
Much of the credit for this condition
is believed by election officials and
workera to have been due to the pres
ence of women voters. Another factor
which is believed to have contributed d
largely to the success of the clean
movement was the presence in some of
the precincts of Federal agents, who
were instructed to watch for any ir-
regularitics.
Generally speaking, it was by far the
cleanest election ever held in Indiana

Special Dispatch to The Tribune
DAYTON, Ohio, Nov. Ex-senator
Harding's plurality in Ohio will exceed
anything ever before recorded in the
Buckeye State.
Eeturns on file in the Office of the
Secretary of State, with a considerable
number of precincts yet to be heard
from, indicate that his total lead over
Governor Cox will be 37s ,6S5.e AS the
precincts not yet reported are mostly
rural precincts, in which Harding is
particularly stAong, this plurality is
expected so be increased by late re-
turns and Harding is expected to ha ye
better than 100000 plurality in his own
state.
The nearest approach to this tremen-
dous plurality ever recorded in Ohio
was in 1904, when Theodore Roosevelt
carried the state by 255,421. In Ohio
the outcome of the election is regarded
as being due largely >to unalterable op-
position to the League Of Nations, to-
gether with dissatisfaction over Gov
ernor CoX's campaign
Cox Repudiated by Neighbors
Unique in Ohio election history is
the fact that Cox failed to carry his
native town of Middletown; he was de-
1eated in his own home precinct.
Car1monte, where his neighbors
cheered him when he drove up to cast
his ballot and then went inside and
voted against him; he failed to carry
his homo city of Dayton; he was de-
teafed in his own county of Mont
gonery by 5000, and in his state by
the largest plurality in Ohio his
corded against any man.
Summed up III a sentence, Ohio was
determined to return to the fold and
Ohioans We're so fearful that this Dur
pose might be defeated that they rolled
up the greatest plurality in Ohio his
tory to make certain that the State
would be found in the Repub lean col
umn to-day.
No Chance for Democrats
No man really had chance on the
Democratic ticket in Ohio. State Of
ticers were elected yesterday who in
other years would have had great diff
'iculty in making good race. They
won because Ohioans, particularly
women, voted straight tickets.
Governor-elect Harry L. Davis, thrice
Mayor Of Cleveland, will have ma
jority of 10000; Frank B. Willis.
Serator-elect will have majority of
100000 and no Republican on the state
ticket will have less than 100000 on
the face Of the returns so FAR received.
Not Democratic Congres sman was
elected in Ohio, and as all Republican
candldates for Congress. in addition to

Printing Facts

No printed job is better than the
cuts which 20 into it. If the en-
cravings Go not come out right
the first time, it probably will be
cheaper in the end to throw them
away and to start fresh. Verv.
very seldom can plates be fixed
up so as 20 print we'll. When the
engraver has to re-Drove, he is
usually sOllcltous that his new

deceive yourself in believing that
any printer can equal the en-
graver's Art Proofs.
The best results arc generally
secured by having the printer
