Johnson (dotn.) by a majority which will exceed 87,000, the largest in the history of the party. Chairman Manley, of the republican state committee, estimate)! from tho returns received and from private advices that the entire vote will exceed 110,000, of which Gov. Cleaves (rep.) will have over 72,000.

Juftiirps rrye'n ltoclcctlon.

The republicans have carried every county in the state, and it Is estlnibted that the legislature will have

republican majority of 125. which insures the reelection of Senator Willium P. Frye. Chairman Manley telegraphed Senator Krve as follows: "To Hon. William P. Frye. Lcwtston: Kennebec gives 8,600 majority aud elects solid delegation. Cleaves will have 37.000 majority over Johnson. Wo havo carried every county. I congratulate you sincerely. You have the largeHt legislative vote ever given senator, a well earned and (loserved compliment." lleed'n Majority.

Thomas B. lteod has been reelected to congress by a plurality estimated at 10,000. Nelson Diugley, Setli H. Milligan and H. Boutelle are also reelected to congress by majorities ranging from 0,000 to 0,000. The total vote will probably exceed 110,000. largeHt Majority liver Given.

Hon. J. II. Manley, chairman of the republican state committee, at 11:30 o'clock sent a message to Henry H. Cleaves at l'ortland in which he claimed the state had gone republican by a majority exceeding :T,000 as far as the election for governor was concerned, the largest ever given. In 185(1 Hannibal Hamlin had 25,000 majority. Samuel Corry in 18B5 had 20,700, and Gen. Chamberlain hud 27,000 in 1800, tho only times in the history of the stato that the majority had exceeded 20,000 for the republican party.

The probition party cut no figure in the election. The populists fell far short of their most confident expectations, but may poll 5,000 votes in the state. Reports from all over the state indicate that the republicans ore half mad with joy over their victory. llcary Gain*.
