Majority Next Session
(Associated Press)
CHICAGO, Nov. B.—Elections
throughout the country yesterday re
eulttd in a political convulsion of far
reaching extent, similar at many points
to the famous tidal wave of 1892, and
fippurently more widespread in its
effect.
The national house of representatives
■was carried by the Democrats, rcvers-
Jn§r the present Republican majority of
forty- th rep.

•will have a reduced Republican ma
jority as a result of legislative elec
tions held in many states.
In New York. John A. Dix. Demo
cratic candidate for governor, is elect
ed over Henry L. btimson, Republican,
by about 66,000, reversing the Repub
lican plurality of 70.000 in 1908 for Gov
ernor Hughes.
In New Jersey, Woodrow Wilson,
Democrat, for governor la elected over
IVTvlan M. Lewis, Republican, by about
15,000, reversing the previous Repub
lican plurality of 8000 for Governor
Fort.
In Massachusetts, Eugene N. Foss,
"tDemocrat, has defeated Governor Kben
iS. Draper, Republican, for re-election
by about 30,000, reversing Governor
Draper's former pluraJity of 8000.
LARGE GAINS BY DEMOfKATS
In Connecticut, Judge Baldwin, Dem-j
ocrat, is elected governor over Charles
A. Goodwin, Republican, by about 4000,
■reversing the previous Republican plu
rality of 16,000.
In Ohio, Governor Judson Harmon,
i Democrat, appears to have carried the
(state by about 15,000 over Warren G.
'Harding, Republican.
In New Hampshire, Robert P. Bass,
Republican, for governor is leading C.
E. Carr, Democrat, by about 6000.
In Pennsylvania, the election of John
K. Tener, Republican, for governor is
claimed by a large plurality.
In Rhode Island, Governor Pothler,
Republican, was elected over Lewis
A. Waterman, Democrat, by 1200 plu
rality, much reduced from that of 1908.
In Tennessee, the fusion candidate,
B. W. Hooper, apparently Is elected
governor by 15,000.
Democratic governors have been
elected in Alabama and South Caro
lina.
In lowa, the Democrats claim the
election of Claude R. Porter for gov
ernor, but this is not yet conceded.
In Wisconsin, the election of the Re
publican candidate for governor, Fran
cis E. McGovem, Is claimed by a re
• ctuced majority, and the return of Sen
ator LaFollette to the United States
senate is assured.
In Michigan, Charles S. Osborn, Re
publican, for governor appears to have
a safe lead over his Democratic op
ponent.

BOURBONS GAIN 40 IN
i HOUSE REPRESENTATIVES
CHICAGO, Nov. B.—Democrats have
gained forty seats in the national
house of representatives, assuring
them not only control, but also a sub
stantial majority.
Tho Democratic gross gain, how
ever, is reduced to a net gain of
thirty-seven by three Republican
gains.
In order to gain control of the house
It was necessary for the Democrats to
elect twenty-four new members. As-
Ruining that the party will retain Its
representation in states not yet heard

crats have thirteen members in excess
of the necessary twenty-four to give
them control.

eclved up to 2 o'clock indicate that the

FOR NOT REDUCING TARIFF
CHICAGO, Nov. B.—James T. Lloyd,
chairman of ih<? j emocratlo national
congressional committee, issued the fol
lowing statement tonight :
"The causes which have led to the
result are well known, it is a serious
rebuke to the Republican party for Its
failure to reduce the. tariff, as the peo
ple believed the party had prom
"There is general, dissatisfaction at
exi^tinp political conditions, and with
the present Republican administration.
This has led to its repudiation as far
ns could be done at the poll*.
"The Democratic party has won the
victory because the only hope of the
people is in its supremacy."

lican, will be elected to the senate by
the legislature elected in "Wisconsin
today, which from the returns received
up to a late hour will be safely Re
publican.
The election of Francis F. McGov
ern, Republican, for governor, is

duced plurality, compared with the
vote of two years ago, when Governor
Davidson, Republican, won by 80,000.
Eight Republicans and one Demo
crat (Sixth district) have been elected
to congress; the Fourth is in doubt,
and Victor Berger, Social-Democrat,

the La Follette candidate, Charles N.
Crpwnhart of Superior, who is run
ning as an independent Republican.

OHIO
RETURNS SHOW HARMON'S
PLURALITY IS INCREASED
Gain in Cleveland Makes Up for
Loss in Governor's Home
CLEVELAND, Ohio, Nov. B.—Judsnn
Harmon, Democrat, was re-elected gov
ernor of Ohio today by a largely in
creased plurality, according to returns
from about 250 precincts of the 4526
in the state. Even approximate figures
are still in doubt, owing to a consid
erable switch in various districts of the
state.
In 156 precincts in Cleveland Harmon
shows a gain of fourteen votes to a
precinct, partly overbalancing the Re
publican sain of thirty to a precinct In
Cincinnati, his home city.
The complexion of the legislature is
in doubt, but indications are it will
be close, ftural districts are showing
large Democratic gains.

NEW JERSEY
WGODRQW WILSON WINS
BY PLURALITY OF 20,000
Figures Show Great Loss in Re
publican Strongholds and In
dicate Democrat Success
TRENTON, N. J., Nov. B.—Figures
obtainable at 10 o'clock indicated the
election of Woodrow Wilson, Demo
crat, for governor, the only state office
to be filled, by between 15,000 and 20,000
plurality over Vivian M. Lewis, Re
publican.
Most of the early returns were from
Republican strongholds. Returns from
145 out of the 1393 districts in New Jer
sey, a trifle more than one-tenth, give
Lewis 19,107; Wilson, 18,157. The same
district in 1908 gave Taft 26,785;
Bryan, 16,464.
These figures indicate a net gain of
71 to the district for Wilson on the.
basis of the 1908 vote, and would indi
cate his election by 15,000.
Complete returns from the forty-four
districts where voting machines were
used give Lewis a plurality of 2615,
while the same districts gave Governor
Fort three years ago a plurality of
5635. This is a net loss of 68 to the
district for Lewis and at the same
ratio, if continued, would easily in
sure Wilson's election.
Early votes for members of the legis
lature and for congress were too
meager to give an indication of the
outcome. In the First district the re
election* of Representative Loudens
lager by a small plurality was indi
cated.
The political completion of the legis
lature, Which will choose a successor
to Senator John Kean, was in doubt.
NEW JERSEY DEMOCRATS WIN
NEWARK, Nov. 8.- he Democratic
state headquarters here :it 10:30 i>. in.
issued a statement claiming the elec
tion of Democrats In eight of the ten
congressional districts. The re-elec
tion of Representative Loudonslager
in the ] ■ -at and Gardner in the Sec
ond, both Republicans, was conceded.

STIMSON SAYS LANDSLIDE
IS ONLY THE BEGINNING
Republican Candidate Blames
New Movement for Defeat

nation-wide, and a general movement
of the Republican party toward pro
gressiveness.
"There seemed to be a ground swell
all over the country." he said tonight,

is only the beginning. We're begin
ning to have a realignment of politi
cal parties, and the Republican party
is going through the agony of be
coming progressive.
"The returns speak for themselves.
I have nothing to regret. We've '. ad a
good, clean fight, I was surprised that
I inn so well, and with the rest of the
ticket."
Mr. Stimson first conceded his de
feat at 8 o'clock this evening. An hour
and a half later he sent a telegram
to John A Dix as follows:
"The present returns clearly indi
cate your election. I congratulate
you and send you my good wishes for
ritccess in your administration."
