DEFEATED.

Signal Victory in New
Jersey.
THOMPSON'S FORCES ROUTED
Fusionists Have a Clear Working
Majority in the Next
Legislature.
HUDSON COUNTY IS SET FREE,
Totfey Downs Stanton in the
Home County of Boss
Mclaughlin.

Latest returns from the New Jersey
election onlv serve to increase the
majorities OF the anti-race-track men
which has so long dominated the State.
The opponents OF the gamblers and the
men under the lead Of Bosses Thompson
and Mclaughlin have won a great VIC
tory.
The anti-race-track men have elected
seven State Senators and their opponents
but one. Nine Democratic State Sena-
tors hold over and so do four Republi-
cans. Tie new Senate stands: Republi-
cans, II; Democrats, 10.
In the State Assembly the Republi-
ans. or anti-race-track men, have 80
and the Democrats q.
There is a clear working majority
against the Winter race tracks in both
branches of the State Legislature.
The most signal victory for the reform
party is the election of Col. John ]. Tof-
fey as Sheriff of Hudson County by a
1IldlOIlly So great lldl tlt TdCt-tTdCh
candidate, Edward r. Stanton, seems
not to nave been in the fight at all.
This is especially significant because the
possession of the Sheriff was of vital
Importance to the men who own the
Winter race tracks, and the fight was a
desperate one.
The defeat of the Winter race-track
men means the repeal Of the race
track gambling laws at the approaching
session of the New Jersey Legislature.
The victory OF the reform element will
naturally be followed by the discontinue
ance of Winter racing in New Jersey.
4 significant feature of the voting
was its sole reference to race-track
legislation. That was the one issue.
When the racetrack champion was the
Republican candidate, as in Atlantic
city, he was defeated by the united
action Of Republicans and Democrats.
In Sussex County every Democratic
candidate was defeated. Sue a thing
had never before happened in the
country.
In Monmouth County the entire fusion
ticket appears to have been elected.
'ounder Bradley, of Asbury Park, claims
a small majority.
The composition of both houses OF the
