Election in Oregon.

Meager Returns Indicate Republicans Have Elected Their Ticket.

PORTLAND, Or., June 5.—Meager returns from the election indicate that the Republicans have carried the state by from 5,000 to 8,000 plurality. It is estimated that C. E. Wolverton (Rep.) for justice of the supreme court will have a plurality of 5,000. In the Second congressional district the plurality for Moody (Rep.) is estimated at from 5,000 to 7,000. From the First congressional district, which has always been close, no returns have been received except from one county, and Tongue (Rep.) was running ahead of his ticket. According to the returns the fusionists have gained in the legislature, but returns are too meager to permit of an estimate at this hour, though the Republicans claim they will control both houses.
