IT WAS AN AVALANCHE
Even Old Kentucky Goes
Republican.
GIVEN UP BY THE DEMOCRATS
Tktjr Coiced Bradley's Election
From 4O0O to 10,000 Major
ityRepublican Claims
Greater.
Tbe republican victory yesterday Las
proved even greater than tbe returns at
first indicated. Kentucky, the strong
hold of democracy, is conceded by the
democrats themselves to have gone re
publican by a majority ranging any
where from 4000 to 10,000, while the
republicans claim at least 15,000 major
ity In that state. The legislature is also
probably safely republican. T-he indi
cations are that Utah has also elected
a republican governor, while the legisla
ture is known to be republican. Late
returns from Maryland, New York,
Ohio, New Jersey and other states show
increased majorities for the republicans
over first estimates.
ILLINOIS.
Torreas Land Bill Carried by a Great
Majority iu Coolc County.
Chicago, Nov. 6. The Torrens land
bill has been carried by a majority in
the county of 77,257. The vote in the
city for it was 75,319, and against, only
4S87. The country towns were fully as
strong for the measure.
Louis A. Leberger,f the real estate
board commission, which was charged
with the campaign for the enactment of
the law and its submission to the people,
was enthusiastic over the victory.
"Id was the greatest fight the board"
ever made and we think it has accom
plished a result which will be of the
greatest benefit to the whole county. In
effect this law puts realty in the category
of quick assets where it has been an ex
ceedingly poor asset in the past. The
new law does away with all examina
tions of titles', and as a consequence,
brokerage will fall considerably. Thus
the borrower will be benefited in a large
measure and the poor man who is com
pelled to mortgage his property will de
rive the largest possible cash loan in
stead of having to fritter away a great
deal of it in fees and commissions.
"Another benefit of it is that an in
demnity fund is created out of a tax of
one-tenth of 1 per cent on the value of
property certified for the first time. This
fund is held for the protection of inno
cent persons who suffer loss under the
operation of the law. In Austria, dur
ing 15 years, $1,000,000 was collected in
EUch indemnity fund, and not a siogle
assault on it was successful. The right
to the benefits of such a fund, of course,
is settled in the courts. This law is iu
oparation in some foreign countries and
in every case where tried it has proved
satisfactory to the people."
IT WAS AN AVALANCHE.
The Courier Journal's Comments on
tbe returns.
Louisville, Nov. 6. The Courier
Journal this morning says : "The dem
ocrats of Kentucky are asking where
they stand today. It was an avalanche.
The governor's race is in doubt. The
legislature is in doubt. The democratic
majorities in democratic strongholds
have been shaved to almost nothing.
As it etands, with reports from about 80
counties, Bradley has a lead of about
4000 for governor. The same ratio of
democratic losses will land Mr. Bradley
in the executiye mansion at Frank
fort." The democrats have elected 41 repre
Eentatives, the republicans 50. In nine
districts the result is doubtful or unre
ported. These districts were democratic
in the last house. If they are demo-
Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U. S. Gov't Report
cratic this time tbe house will be a tip.
Of the hold-over senators five are repub
licans and 14 democrats, making the
vote on a joint ballot stand ; Democrats,
65; republicans, 64. Of the 41 demo
crats elected to tbe house, Blackburn
may safely count on 22, and McCreary
15, while four have expressed no choice.
Of the 10 democratic senators elected
nine are for Blackburn. Tbe other is
non-committal, and bis election is also
in doubt. Of the bold-over democratic
senators eight are for McCreary, fivefor
Blackburn and one doubtful. Republi
can headquarters claim the state by about
15,000 and the lower branch of the legis
lature by from 5 to 6 votes.
Tbe Legislature.
Frankfort, Ky., Nov. 6. The legis
lature appears to stand, 65 democrats, 69
opposition. The populists bold the bal
ance of power. Blackburn's friends
claim his election with the aid of the
populists.
Conceded by Democrats.
Cincinnati, Nov. 6. The Times-Star
special from Lexington, Ky., says the
democrats concede the election of Brad
ley, republican, for governor, by from
8000 to 10,000. Silver democrats charge
President Cleveland and Secretary Car
lifle with the responsibility of the sweep
ing defeat.
IN OHIO.
Estimates Differ as to tbe Republican
Plurality.
Columbus, O., Nov. 6. Chairman An
derson, of tbe democratic state commit
tee, says the reports up to 12 p m. show
a republican plurality of from 80,000 to
90,000. Chairman Kurtz, of tbe repub
lican committee, says the plurality will
be 95,000.
Hamilton Cuuts Kecord.
Cincinnati, Nov. 6. The plurality for
Bushnel!, rt-puulican, for governor, in
Hamilton county, with one, precinct
missing, is 11,953.
Young Garneld's Victory.
Akron, O., Nov. 6. James K. Gar
field, the eon of the late preeident, was
elected state senator from 24th and 25th
districts by an enormous plurality. The
district was normally republican by 10,
000, but he has carried it by over 14,000.
Running with him on the republican
ticket was Whittlesey, who has been
state senator for several years. Gar
field's pluiality is greater than his by
2000. The district which he will repre
sent is almost identically the same as
when his father was first chosen in 1857
to the office. A remarkable coincidence
was the fact that Garfield was nominated
July 2, tbe 14th anniversary of his
fathers' assassination. He is a graduate
of the Columbian echool. of New York,
and for several years has praticed law in
Cleveland. He resides in Mentor.
KENTUCKY.
Hardin Acunowledges tbe Election of
Bradley.
Washington, Nov. 6. A special to
the Star from Ljuisville, Ky., says :
Hardin. concedes the election of Brad
ley and the republicans claim the legis
lature, which would defeat Senator
Blackburn. A private telegram from
Mr. Vansenden, Secretary Carlisle's pri
vate secretary, now in Kentucky, says
Bradley is elected governor by from
4000 to 8000.
NEW 1'OKlt.
Political Complexion of the Empire
State's Next Legislature.
New Yoek, Nov. 6. Corrected returns
from nearly all the election districts
show the state senate consists of 35 re
publicans, 14 democrats and I independ
ent, the assembly of 99 republicans and
51 democrats.
In this city the majority for the dem
ocratic state ticket is approximated at
10,000 greater than the average major
ity of Tammany local candidates, which
are from 25,000 for Soginir,' for recorder,
to 17,000 for Purroy, for county clerk.
Griggs Large Plurality.
Trenton, N. J., Nov. 6. The esti
mated plurality of Griggs, republican
candidate for governor, is 24,300.

Mrs. W. B. Meek, who resides at
Camptonville. Cal., says her daughter
was for several years troubled at times
with severe cramps in the stomach, and
would be in such'agony that it was nec
essary to call in it physician. Having
read about Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy she concluded to
try -it. She found that it always gave
prompt relief. It was seldom necessary
to give the second dose. "It has not
only saved us lots of worry and time,"
she says, "but also doctor bills. It is
my opinion that every family should
have a bottle of this remedy in the
house." For eale by Blakeley & Hough
ton, Druggiats.

A. G. Bartley of Mag ic, Pa., writes
I feel it a duty of mine to inform you

of eczema. It also cured my boy of a
