THE COUNTRY AT LARGE.
John A. Dlx, (dem.) Is elected gov
ernor of New York by about 55,000.
Woodrow Wilson, (dem) Is elected
governor of New Jersey by about 15,
000. Massachusetts has gone democratic
on governor by about 30,00.
In Ohio, Judge Harmon, (dem.) ap
pears to have a majority of about 15,
000. In Wisconsin the return of Senator
LaFollette to the U. S. senate seemo
assured.
In Pennsylvania republicans claim
the election of Tenor for governor by
a large plurality.
Lincoln Tho election of Chester A.
Aldrich over James A. Dahlman Is now
beyond doubt, the only question being
tho size of the republican candidate's
majority.
Allowing Dahlmnn 8,500 majority In
Douglas county, and subtracting from
thnt tho Aldrich majority of 2,100 in
Lancnstor county Aldrich Is in tho
lead 5,709 votes counting in both Lan
caster and Douglas.
Mr. Aldrich still claims tho stato by
30,000 majority. He says that ho has
heard from almost every county in
tho state and the majorities bear out
his claim. Ho says he has carried
ovory congressional district in tho
stato with the exception of the Sec
ond. Chicago. Incomplete returns on tho
election of representatives In congress
indicate that tho democrats will havo
a working majority of twenty-nine In
tho next house. Tho number of dem
ocrats elected to congress, according
to tho latest returns, which nro of an
imolhelnl character, is 225. Tho repub
lican representation will bo 104 or 1G5,
or eight seatB less thnn the democrats
now have In tho Slxty-flist congress.
The Legislature.
Lincoln. It Is yet Impossible to
filvo n correct personel or either
branch of the stato legislature, but tho
democrats are claiming a working ma
jority in both houses.

Tho probable attltudo or Colonol
Roosevelt, in view of tho result of tho
election, can bo Judged only by what
ho hns said tho last few days. In his

tho republicans were beaten this time
they would win next tlmo, nnd that,

counties have reported the vole of
legislative candidates to enable a par
tial list of members of both house
nnd senate to be made out.
In tho senate, with thirty members
out of thirtj -three known almost to v.
costulnty, the republicans control llf

Ohio, and In addition to electing ,lud
ton Harmon for a second term as
governor, have undoubtedly elected
the remnlnder of their state ticket
and a majority of the legislature. In

republican, will be succeeded in 1011
by a democrat.
Harmon's majority over Harding Is
still in doubt, but milllcleut rcturmi
are in to show that It is the largest

The latest estimates give Harmon a

Fremont. Congressman Iattn has
been elected. Ho carried Fremont by
184 and has Increased his majority In
every ono of tho seventy scattering
precincts In Colfnx, Stanton, Madison
Cuming, Knox, Dodge, Cedar ad
Platte counties. Dan V. Stephens, Lut
tn's campaign manager, says a major
ity of 5,000 In the district Is a conser
vative estimate.
On State Officers.
Lincoln. Reports from u very few
counties on stato officers indicate that
republicans are keeping well up with
tho head of tho ticket and that they
will be elected along with the gover
nor. In the wet sections the other re
publican candidates seem to be run
ning ahead of Aldrich.
The First District.
Will Hayward has conceded Mil
guires election. He said:
"Mr. Magulro has apparently car
ried Lancaster county by four or live
hundred votes which is more than I
can possibly overcome in the country
counties. I am naturally disappointed.
JOHN A. MAGUIRE
Congressman from First District of
Nebraska.
I put In every hour of my time after
tho primary on the Job In an effort to
redeem the First district. In a cam
paign including seven thousand miles
of travel and njnety-thrce meetings I
had tho pleasure of speaking for tho
stnte ticket and platform and the local
ticket In every case."
Comment of Chairman Lloyd.
Jamos T. Lloyd, chairman of tho
democratic national congressional
committee, Issued the following Btnto
ment: "Present Indications nre that con
gress will bo democratic by about
thirty-llvo majority. Thus far returns
lndlcato that our pre-election esti
mates wore about correct."
Ho says -further, "It Is a serious re
buke to tho, republican party for Its
failure to reduco tho tariff as tho peo
plo believed tho party had promised.
Tho high cost of protected manufac
tured articles which has resulted In
greatly increased cost ot living has
had very much to do with producing
this result."
Trouble at Tulsa.
Tulsa, Okla. Serious trouble wus
narrowly averted hero when C. W,
Nelsons, a negro and a Methodist
minister, was rcrused the right to
voto nt ono or tho precincts. A large
crowd or negroes gathered around

New Comer In Politics.
New York John Alden Dlx, governor-elect
of New York, Is u nephew
of tho famous John A. Dlx, who .sent
tho stirring message of 1SC1: "If any
man attempts to haul down tho
American Hag, shoot him on the
bpot."
A new comer in politics, no was
first heard of six years ago when he
went to the democratic national con
vention in St. Louis as u delegate.
Two years later he was a candldato
for governor In the Buffalo conven
tion that nominated William R.
Hearst. This party Irregularity did
not prevent the democrats of Wash
ington, his homo county, from elect
ing him their chalrninn, and when
tho next convention came two years
later ho was nominated for llouten'
nnt governor and defentcd. '
Champ Clark Happy.
Bowling Green. Chnmp Clark, min
ority leader In tho house of represen
tatives, when advised that democrats
probably would control tho next houso
of representatives, expressed his grati
fication and predicted that tho ma
jority would bo ilfty democratic mem
bers. "The landslide," said Mr. Clark, "Is
attributed directly to the tariff and
tho light on tho rules In tho house.
Tho rules split tho republican party,
and tho tariff coming so soon after,
caused dissatisfaction throughout tho
country."
Cannon Is Re-elected,
Danville, ill. Joseph G. Cannon,
speaker of tho houso of representa
tives, was re-elected to congress from
tho Eighteenth Illinois congressional
district by a reduced plurality.
Legislature in Doubt.
Now York. Tho complexion of tho
