CANS BEATEN IN KASsAs-NEBRAsKA DEMO
CRATIC - MINNESOTA AND WISCONSIN ALSO
''FLoP"-oTHER CHANGES.
As fuller returns of the election come in the
defeat of the republicans become more pro-
nounced- The democratic majority in the
House Of Representatives will be in the neigh
borhood of hundred. The complete returns
from Pennsylvania show Pattison's plurality to
be 1929. In Kansas the republicans were
beaten by the Farmers Alliance and the DEM
ocrats. The republican state committee in
Ohio claims . plurality for the state ticket Of
1900. The committee comedies the defeat of
Maj. Mckinley by about 200 votes, and Of ex-
Gov. Foster. in the eighth district, by nearly
100. The democrats have carried the state
ticket in Wisconsin and gained one congress-
man. Nebraska democrats claim the election
OF the governor. The Minnesota democrats

county in Pennsylvania give Pattison, DEM,
for governor, plurality of 16, 299 over Della
lieutenant governor and secretary of internal
affairs, Messrs. Watres and Stewart. are. no
doubt, elected. as both ran far ahead OF Della
mater IN nearly every county. Philadelphia
county alone gave Watres a majority of II .279
greater than that for Delamater, and gave
Stewart II. 907 greater. Counties which have
hitherto been overwhelmingly republican have
been swept from their moorings and drifted
into the democratic camp. Counties which
were confidently expected to give large vote
for Delamater have turned up with majorities
for Pattison. The 400 majority received by
Delamater in Quay's own county, which gave
Harrison 15OO shows that tho people of his
district were opposed to his leadership. Dau-
phin county. the home of Senator Cameron
which at the last election gave Harrison 800
majority shows a republican loss of nearly
600 votes, Franklin shows loss of 100. Hunt
inGton OF GOO, Warren of 900 and Venanpo of
go. In nearly all the strong republican coun-
ties Pattison reached substantial gains. while
In the democratic counties his ma jorities were,
as a rule. in excess of those given to Cleve land
IN the last presidential election. The demo-
Gratis will gain six In the state senate and thirty
two IN the house. The senate will be composed
OF twenty-nine republicans and twenty-one
democrats. and the house Of 1l2 republicans
and ninety-two democrats, which will give to
the republicans majority on joint ballot of
twenty-eight.

plurality of about 10, 900 over Wilson, demo-
era- Inc republican state central committee
insist5 that 1t will control the general assembly
by fveor six on joint ballot but the democrats
as vigorously insist they will have a majority of
one to three. The result is still in doubt and
must remain SO until the official returns are in,
although the probabilities are that the republi-
cans will have bare majority.

twenty. These gains insure the election of a
democratic United States Senator a state con-
troller and a state treasurer.
Ohio.
The republican state committee unofficial re-
turns received from seventy-fye counties and
the balance estimated claim the republican
plurality on the head of the state ticket will be
