A DECIDED VICTORY IN CiNCINNA III.
CONNECTICUT.

lnc election Ill COnnectlcul, on Monday,
after severe struggle, resulted in the re-
election of James Il. English, Democrat, for
Governor, by a majority slightly increased
over that Of last year, when he had about
one thousand.
The Republicans however, though de.
fcated in their hopes of carrying their Gov
ernor, hayc secured result more substan-
tial, If not so prominent. They have car.
ried both branches of the Legislature, more
largely than last year. The Senate stands
l2 to s.; and in the House they have about
20 majority. Last year they had one ma
iority in the Senate and ten in the House.
The control of the Legislature derives its
present importance from the fact that
United States Senator is to be elected 10y il
to succeed Hon. James Dixon. A Repuhli
can will be one gained for that party, as
Mr.. Dixon has steadily voted with the De-
mocracy since his detection with johnson.
Mr.. English owes his election to frauds
praciced in the lowest wards of Hartford
and New Haven. The Third and Fifth
wards in New Haven gave him 2, 1919 ma
jority, and the Fifth and Sixth wards oi
Hartford ISL majority, making total of
1880, or about double the majority he re.
ccvcd in the entire State II was the worst
classes of tie population against the iniei-
gcuco of the State, MS represented in nearly
10000 voters. The repeating game was
praciced successfully in these wards and
Mr.. English could have doubled up his ma
jority by hundreds had ii been necessary To
overcome the vote against him in the c0lln-
try towns, where corruption is impossible.
