Homestead Strikers Give Grover, the
Winner, Majority.
THE REPUBLICANS CARRY THE COUNTY

Al Iulunlgnt ~ districts from AlleyHeuy
county had been heard from, showing a net
Republican gain of 1913 over the vote of
1878. Ii this ratio is maintained, Secretary
Miller saws the majority III the county will
be not less than % 600. Harrison's major
ity in 1888 was 20, 4SS Chairman Gripp at
that hour thought his estimate of $1,000
Republican majority for the county would
hold.
As was expected the national ticket takes
precedence over the local, and the results
were snail-like coming in. From the few dis
tricts returned Dalzell was running ahead
of the ticket. So far Jerry Dougherty
for the Senate in the Forty-third district,
did well. He shows up with gains in the
First ward, where he is quite popular. The
Republican majority in this Senatorial dis
trict is about 1000, and it is believed that
Upperman will have not less than from
1000 to ! 200 to spare.
Nothing OF any sccount has been received
from the Steele-Snee fight on the Southsde
The district is Republican by 1900, and the
leaders claim that Steele will have major
ity of at least ., 900 for the Senate.
Acheson's Election Predicted.
In the Twenty-fourth Congressional dis
trict, Register Connor, who is familiar
with the situation, said that Acheson
would win by 900 votes. He figured that
Greene will come up with {, 900 and Fayette
from 400 to 600 against him. His majority
was put at 1,GOO in Washington and 2 400
in Allegheny county.
c. L. Magee left the fire alarm Office
about 9 o'clock and at midnight had
not returned. Chairman Gripp read
bogus telegram stating that Alabama
had gone Democratic bv 67, 600 This pro-
duced loud laugh. Chief Bigelow said
his wife mad asked him to come home early.
He believed he would obey her. Andy
Robertson, to keep up the spirits of the
boys, insisted that the returns on the gen.
eral result came from Democratic sources
In the Twentv-second Congressional dis
trict John Dalzell, Republican, won out
easily, as everyone expected. His oppo-
nent James Breen, never claimed he had
chance to win, having asserted some time
ago that, while there was no chance of be-
ing elected, he was having lot OF fun out
Of his candidacy. John Dalzeil has already
served two terms in Congress, representing
his district with dignity and success. Un-
Ger the circumstances, Mr.. Dalzell is not !
now expected to make fight against Quay |
for United States Senator.

the Twenty-third Congressional district
against Frank C. Osburn, Democrat, with

Tor restricting immigration at the next |

Emanuel Wertheimer and Charles A.

bronner's first election to the Legislature
and Wertheimer's first.

A Quartette of Republican Winners,
Samuel NJ Laferty, w. NJ. Culbertson.
David E Weaver and Emmett Cotton. ali |
Republicans, are winners in the Fifth dis
trict. They have ali been there before and
their opposition this time was not cis-
cumstance.
Joseph T. Richey and Samuel Wallace

lican ticket in the Seventh district, the only
Democratic candidate being Joseph Robin
son. Samuel E. Stewart, Republican, from
the Eighth district, is returned with COM
Portable majority,
Hon. Edwin II. Stoves reelection as Judge
of Common Pleas Court No was prac-
tically unanimous. Judge Stove is Re-
publican but made no effort to secure the {
nomination. The Democrats placed him
on their ticket but the Peoples party put
up Attorney William Bird against him
lust to fill out their ticket. No Justice in {
the County Court enjoys more general pub
lie confidence than Judge Stove.
Heber Mcdowell was triumphantly re-
elected to his third term as Coroner of Allie
gheny county. His success was assured from '
she start, his record for integrity and devotion

Zwick, Democrat, for Director of the Poor t
without trouble. Mr.. Ochse has filled the '
Office before and previous to Mr.. Cleye- Q
lan's administration was postmaster of

The Situation at O'Clock. c
At o'clock returns from % districts in !.
Pittsburg were received indicating net
gain of 102 votes. Chairman Gripp said
not enough wards had be heard from to base
an estimate of the ma jority in the county.
No reports had been received from OUTLYING
districts, and only q few precincts from t
A Allegheny had come in. a
Every one was surprised at the good show /,
ing made by Jere Doherty. From the o.
figures received 1t looks as if Upperman 8
would not have more than 600 of a majority, i,
If suy. The Democrats concentrated their A
.fforts in the interest of the young mill a
worker. His gains were large in all dis 1,
riots where the labor vote predominatek ii
Lu 2s districts reported Upperman at that
1our was 20 votes behind Doherty. The
ubsequent returns were also unfavorable
