lican state committee expresses the
opinion that the house will be demo-
cratic. The democrats claim that the
returns of two hundred and twenty
two towns show the house to stand
democrats, one hundred and fifty-iive,
republicans, one hundred and forty
one, independents two. The towns to
be heard from last year elected twenty
two democrats and seventeen rcpub-
