Four years ago Charles Davis defeated .John P. Bible for sheritT by 5 majority, and at the same election Frank Wren for Recorder was defeated by Munhall by 7 majority. In the election this week David Canine defeated Harper by IS majority. It will be seen from the above that a few votes as a majority are not to lie despised. ,.

The elections of Tuesday last was a a gieat triumph for the corporations, syndicates and the majority of the republican party. McKiuley and llobart carried about !0 of the 4-1 States of the Union and their votes in the electoral college is near 'JOO. By the unbounded recourses in money and which the leaders used with a lavish lia^d they were able to secure about three-tifths of the States for the ticket. It is indeed a triumph for their party, aud they are disposed to make tho most of it. The democracy while having an able leader, we)' eijuipp.-d for an aggr?ssive earn pai^n had the corporate wealth of the couotrj. the ^reat newspapers and "tho Palmer S: Buckuer Mclvinley aid society" all against it, and which with its vast sums if money "on call" ''ou'd not be overcome. We can only say get ready for them again in li'OO, and with better organization, less divisions in our ranks ami with the knowlege that our cause is just and the eternal principles democracy must prevail, we can more readily encounter the wealth and route tile cohorts of high prie money, syndicates, and the money power ia general, which this year I as triumphed over us.

Cotioini-*, O., Nov. On the com parison of the vote with that of the last presidential election Ohio made unprecedented. gains today for McKinley. In 1S9'2 Harrison carried Ohio by an average plurality for republican electors of 1,07'-. In that year one of tho Cleveland and Stevensou electors was elected. In 1893 McKinley had a plurality of over SO,000 for governor. Tho republicans carried Ohio in 1S04 by 1157,000, and last year Bushnell, republican, was elected governor by over 02,000. The republicans have had phenomenally largo pluralities in Ohio the past three years, commencing with McKinl^y's re-election as governor in 1S93, while in 1892 tho re suit was very close. The state in 1S92, for the first time, did not give its entire electoral vote to the republican presi dential candidate. The largest plurality ever given a republican presidentia ticket in Ohio was 114,000 for Garfield in 1880. While the democratic state com mittee makes no claim to the state tonight, the republican stato committee expects the complete returns to break all former records. Kinne. for secre tary of state, has about the same vote as McKinley and Hobart.

CHICAOO, NOV. o.—Thd returns re ceived by the Associated Press indicate the election of McKinley and Hobart The beet estimates obtainable indicate that Maine and Vermont have given majorities somewhat reduced from the September elections that New Hampshire gives about 20,000, Massachusetts about 120,000 and Rhode Island and Connecticut proportionate majorities,all for jtlcKinley New York estimated at about 200,000 and Pennsylvania is likely to reach the same tigure, if not a greater. Maryland has been carried for the re publican candidate for president by a majority exceeding 20,000, and Delaware is confidently claimed, but apparently in dispute, although the plurality is not likely to exceed 1,000. Returns from West Virginia are not sufficient to justify the claim of either party. Ohio has given a very large republican plurality and Kentucky is apparently assured to the McKinley column, although later returns may not justify this claim.

A-

1 ennessee seems to have been carricd for Bryan, notwithstanding the confident assertions to the contrary of the republican managers, and the same is probably true of North Carolina. i'uiiana and Michigan, as well as idinncsota. indicate heavy republican gains and a strong probability that they h.ve gone for McKirloy. Illinois will give McKinley over 100,000 plurality. Nebraska and North and South laki til are very close and still in doubt. Wyoming seems to have gone for McKinlev. The returns from the Pacitio const States are too meager to justify any claim respecting them. Tho States of ••ginia. South Carolina. Florida, (ieorgia, Alabama, Louisiana, Arkansas. Missouri, Colorado, Nevada, Montana and Idaho may safely be placed in the

Bryan column. The returns from Kansas and Jexas are scattering anil indi-

cate nothing, although heavv repnblican gains are reported .froin I^allas and. Galveston.

LINCOLN, N d., Nov. T—A 10 o'clock Chairman Post of Uu republican Slate committee claimed the State of Nebraska for MeKinloy by a majority of fi un 7.000 to S.000. have,'1 he said, received very scattering returns from only eighty-live precincts in the btate. ami we have neither footed up totals nor made comparisons on tlieiu. The returns, however, indicate gains sullicieiit to warrant the ciaiai I have made."

Siritt»K? Valor*. It is somewhat remarkable nt the strange mode and manner by which tho election laws aro twisted or violated in this Stato for the purpose of getting in votes. There were at least a score or more of voters here on Tuesday whose ballots certainly should not have been received by the election ollicer?, and yet where any dispute arose over it, friends stood by rea:.y to swear them in. One man wo heard of. who has not resided here for several jours, but in Cincinnati, yet hi.-- vote was taken. Another lives in Chicago, works there and haB for many months, with his family, ae.d yet comes down here to vote. Another with a wife and living in a southern State for three years pa-t voted hero Tuesday, claiming this as his home. These aro only a few instances wheri tho right of some persons to vote should certainly havo been investigated, anil it would look like out of self respect, regardless of any party feeling, iey would hesitate a great while befor« undertaking to do an act that on its face assuredly looks like a violation of law.

The election being over now, however it is probable that such matters dropped as they always are.

I, lOO stutt nil OvciTout. The above line indicates, it is said, just about tho amount that R. (.'. Walkup, the republican candidate for Clerk together with the defeat, is out. lie for ten months past has had his mind on that oflice, worked hard for the nomination, and harder still for tho election. After getting it, tho dead beats swarmod about him, asking for this or that favor for their "influence,and generally he dealt them 'out a generous hand. lie was much the hardest worker and best politician on his party's ticket, and there were few localities in the county that ho failed to visit, but in spito of this, defeat was his portion. Sparks happened to have the most friends and defeated him by about 50 votes. Tuesday night while waiting in the Court House for the election re turns surrounded by a howling and enthusiastic republican multitude, Walkup laid down his overcoat on a table and went acruse the the room to speak to somebody. When he returned the coat had disappeared. Somebody anticipating a cold winter, as prophecied by

Hicks, had "lifted" it, and as quietly departed.

The Nrx» I'oatmuster. Now that (the republicans havo carried the day the usual scramble for next post master of Crawfordaville, will of eourso soon set in. Mr. Voris' time, however, does not oxpire for ovar a year, but this will not prevent the figuring for the place from beginning soon. Theroare a, number of fellows of the party who will claim they did heroic work to save it. It is probable that both McCain and Bonnell, both ex-P. M.'s could have the position forced upon them. Then there is Frank Maxwell, a deputy-auditor, who considers probably that tho place would just (it him. J. A. Cook, for a long time an employee at the Post Office, wonders no doubt, why he would Dot do for post master. "And there are others."

It COMtH, The cost of holding the election in this county was quite expensive. There are 42 precincts in the county, and 7 men aro necessary ti carry on the balloting at each precinct. Their dinners and other meals are paid L~y the county, besides there aro other expenses in tho way of ballots, etc. The total coat will probably be near $2,000.

THE COUNTY TICKET.

Three Democrats Elected, the Re

publicans Taking the Remainder.

I he election at the different precincts on Tuesday very generally passed off quietly. A full vote was polled, and tho \iirious candidates worked verv energetically them. At the timo of going to Press we wore unable to to get the full official vote, but publish in place thereof the most important facts: 1'or judge, Jere West, democrat, defeats Brunei-, republican, by about 225 votes. 1 ho votes against Brunor that Moored him wero mostly from the republicans living in the city hero.

I'or sheriff. Dave Cat.me, democrat, defeated Harper, republican nominee by by something over thirty votes. Canine carried Brown, a republican township, a thins rarely accomplished by any democrat, and indicates his standing among his neighbors. If he lives ho will iisEuinu official duties next August. ., \Vadnco Sparks is re-elected by a majority of about seventy votes. He had many friends in both parties who worked energetically for him and who drew in many votes that otherwiso might havo been lost to him. At tho same time he had much tho hardest antagonist to dowr, an individual who understands the insane! outs of political working, and was a formidable opponent.

For Prosecuting-Attorney, Kennedy's majority was over '5"0. Johnson for Treasurer, anil Webster for Recorder, wins by majorities of between .T and 150. Byers, domocrat, is dofeateo for Commissioner, and after the expiration of his present term, tho board, will bo solidly republican, Barcus is re-elected Coroner, as is also Wynecoop for Surveyor, and tho remaining ofiiccs are all tilled by republicans.

."Utirtlcr Nenr CimuU'ii. Camden is a small station on tho andaliu, a few miles north of Frannfort, in Carrol county, Tuesday evening, two miles east of there, a cowardly, cold blooded murder was committed, Mrs. Louisa Nipple, a widow and the mother of six children, being tho victim. Mrs. Nipple was in a corn-tiold across the road from her house getting a lew ears ot corn for her chickens. Suddenly two men arose in front ot her and one of them tired and Mre. Nipple fell with a murderous charge of shot in her groin and abdomen. Tho murderers lied and the neighbors, attracted by tho shot and the woman's screams, hurried to tho spot and carried her to her home. The

corn-tield

iB owned by Daniel Neibcl, a

wealthy farmer, and suspicion points to him and his 6on Noah. They wero summoned before the coroner last night and denied all knowledge of the crime, stating that they were in their home, a quarter of a mile distance from where the crimo was committed. The feeling runs very high. Mrs. Nipple enjoyed a splendid reputation, and stated before dying that the value of a few ears ot corn was so Bmall that she did not think anyone would object to her taking it.

It is said that Finley Mount, tba attorney, will be private secretary to his excellency, the Hon. James A., at the beginning of his term in January, and this was one consideration in his returning to Indiana from Denver.
