Columbus, O., Nov. 11.—Complete returns on the state ticket except for governor are still unavailable, with tbe result that both the Republican* and the Democrats continue to claim the election of all minor state officers. Official returns received from eighteen counties show that Harris, Republican candidate for lieutenant governor, has an average lead in each county of 740 over Herrlck for governor. If this ratio should be maintained in the remainder of the eighty-eight counties in the state, which is thought doubtful. Harris would have a lead of Ott.OOO over IJerrick In the state. This would insure the election not only of Harris for lieutenant governor, but of the remainder of the state ticket except governor, as Harris apparently received the lowest Republican vote next to IJerrick. Lewis Houck of Mount Vernon, Democratic nominee for lieutenant governor, has declared his belief that he has been elected. The legislature is also lu doubt. Atchison com B. R.
