CHESTER H. ALDRICH,
i Elected Governor of Nebraska
Lincoln—The elec tion of Chester A.
Aldrich over James A. Dahlman is now
beyond doubt, the only question being
the size of the republican candidate's
majority.
Allowing Dahlman R.500 majority in
Douglas county, and subtracting from
that the Aldrich majority of 2,106 in
Lancaster county Aldrich is in tfc«
lead 5,769 votes counting in both Lan
caster and Douglas.
Mr. Aldrich stiii claims the state by
,30,000 majority. He says that he has
heard from almost every county in
the state and the majorities bear out
his claim. He says he has carried
every congressional district In the
etate with the exception of the See
ond.

On State Officers.
Lincoln.—Reports from a very few
counties on state officers indicate that
republicans are keeping well up with
the head of the ticket and that they
will be elected along with the gover
nor. In the w-et sections the other re
publican candidates seem to be run
ning ahead of Aldrich.
Chicago.—Incomplete returns on the
relection of representatives in congress
indicate that the democrats will havf
a working majority of twenty-nine in
the next house. The number of deni
ocrats elected to congress, according
to the latest returns, which are of an
unofficial character, is 225. The repub
lican representation will be 164 or 165
lor eight, seats less than the democrats
now have in the Sixty-first congress.
; , The Legislature.
Lincoln.—It is yet impossible to
give a correct personel of either
[branch of the state legislature, but the
democrats are claiming a working ma
jority in both houses.
Rome.—The results in the American
elections w'ere learned here with keen
Interest. Cardinal Merry Del Val, the
papal secretary, has a message from
New York which he took personally to
the pope to whom he said the demo
crat ic, victory meant a defeat of Col.
Roosevelt generally.
Colonel Has Nothing to Say.
Oyster Ray, N. Y.—"Absolutely
nothing to say,” was tiie word that
came from Sagamore Hill. Theodore
Roosevelt was at home all Tuesday
evening, but he declined even to re
ceive iterviewers.
The probable attitude of Colonel
Roosevelt, in view of the result of the
election, can be judged only by what
he has said the last few days. In his
speech at Davenport, la., he said if
the republicans were beaten this time
they would win next time, and that,
win or lose, the fight would go on.

Norris Wins by Big Margin.
McCook—Congressman Ceorge W.
Norris, whose canvass received na
tional attention, has scored a notable
triumph in the Fifth district. His
majority over Sutherland, democrat,
will be from 1.200 to 2,000, ag at
present. estimated, and may go high
er. Norris carried at least taro-thirds
of the counties in the district and in

many precincts which went demo
cratic on other offices he was given
a larger vote than his opponent.
Tha First District.
Will Hayward has conceded Ma
guires election. He said:
"Mr. Maguire has apparently car
ried ljmraster county by four or five
hundred votes which is more than 1
can possibly overcome in the country
counties. I am naturally disappointed.
I put in every hour of my tints after
the primary on the job la an effort to
redeem the First district. In a cam
paign including seven thousand miles
of travel and ninety-three meeting* I
had the pleasure of speaking for the
state ticket and platform and the local
ticket In every case.”
Democrats Carry Ohio.
Cleveland, O.—The democrats swept
Ohio, and in addition to electing Jud
son Harmon for a second term as
.governor, have undoubtedly elected
the remainder of their state ticket
and a majority of the legislature. In
consequence, Senator Charles Dick
republican, will be succeeded in 1911
by a democrat.
Harmon's majority over Harding I.
still In doubt, but sufficient return: |
are in to show that it is the larges. ;
ever given by Ohio' to a democrat .
The latest estimates give Harmon's
The latest estimates give Harmon a
margin of 60,000 over Harding.
Hitchcock for Senator.
Senator Burkett has been defeated
by Congressman Hitchcock by a de
cisive majority of fifty-three counties
complete give Burkett 51,944 and
Hitchcock 61,188 making Hitchcock’s
majority in these counties, 9,244 over
Burkett. From the returns from these
fifty-three counties Hitchcock’s lead
over Burkett is 174 votes per county.
With these fifty-three counties giving
GILBERT M. HITCHCOCK
Elected to Succeed Elmer J. Burkett
in United States Senate
the democratic candidate such a lead
it is probable that he will increase it
to 15,000 or more when he goes down
to Douglas county. This would make
his final majority fully as large as that
of the republican candidate for 'gover
nor. This is a change in the vote on
these two offices of about 50,000 votes.
Congress- Third District.
Fremont.—Congressman l>atta lias
been elected. He carried Fremont by
184 and has increased his majority in
Trouble at Tulsa.
Tulsa, Okla.—Serious trouble was
narrowly averted here when C. W.
Nelsons, a negro and a Methodist
minister, was refused the right to
vote at one of the precincts. A large
crowd of negroes gathered around
the voting booth and threatened
trouble, when officers appearing on
‘he scene dispersed them.
Nelsons later caused the United ;
States commissioner to swear out a j
warrant for the election officials who I
fenied him the right to vote..

precincts In Colfax. Stanton. Madison
Cuming, Knox, Dodge, Cedar and
Platte counties. Dan V. Stephens, hat
ta's campaign manager, says a major
ity of y.OOO in the district is a conser- :
vative estimate.
New Corner In Politics.
New York—John Alden Dlx. gov
ernor-elect of New York, is a nephew i
of the famous John A. Dlx, who sen! j
the stirring message of 1861: "If any
man attempts to- haul down the j
American flag, shoot him on the 1
spot."
A new comer in politics, he was
first heard of six years ago when he
went to the democratic national con
vention in St. lAtule as a delegate
Two years later he was a candidate
far governor In the Buffalo conven
tion that nominated William R.
Hoarst. This party irregularity did
not prevent the democrats of Wash
ington, his homo connty, from elect
ing him their chnirmnn, and when
the next convention came two years
l»t«r he was nominated (or lieuten
ant governor and defeated.

Comment of Chairman Lloyd.
James T. Lloyd, chairman of the
democratic national congressional
committee, issued the following state
ment:
"Present indications are that con
gress will be democratic by about
thirty-five majority. Thus far returns
indicate that our pre-elaetlon esti
mates were about correct."
He says further, "it Is a serious re
buke to tbe republican party for Its
failure to reduce the tariff as the peo
ple believed the party had promised.
The high cest of protected manufac
tured articles which has resulted in
greatly increased cost of living has
had very much t.o do with producing
this result,”
ELMER J. BURKETT.
United States Senator from Nebraska
Defeated for Re-election.
Champ Clark happy.
Bowling Green.—('hump (’lark, min
ority leader in the house of represen
tatives. when advised that democrats
probably would control the next house
of representatives, expressed his grati
fication and predicted that the ma
jority would be fifty democratic inern
hers.
'The landslide,” said Mr. Clark, ‘‘is
attributed directly to the tariff and
the fight on the rules In the house
The rules split the republican party,
and the tariff coming so soon after,
caused dissatisfaction throughout the
country.”
McKinley Concedes Defeat.
William B. .McKinley lias sent con
gratulations to Chairman Lloyd of

upon the reported success of the dein
oerats In winning a majority in the
next congress, and lias made the fol
