The elections in the United States
resulted in sweeping victories for the
Republicans.

In the doubtful states there are great
Republican gains.
The PopuIists lost ground every
where except in Texas.
In California, Budd, DEM, was
elected by about thousand majority
over Estee. OF the seven new Con-
gressmen in that state, elk are Repub-
Iicans. Mcclure pulled through.
Adolph Sutro is elected Mayor of
San Francisco. He had more votes
than EIlert, O'Donnell and all the
other candidates together.
A Republican will be sent to the
Senate from California to succeed Mr..
Perkins.
In Washington, Montana and Wy
oming, three states where the legisla-
lures deadlocked two years ago, Repub-
licans will be sent to the Senate. A
Republican will succeed a Democrat
for New Jersey.
The official vote of New York City
for Mayor is: Strong, Republican, 1884,
043; Grant, Tamm many, 1857 StroDg's
plurality, 1926.
Virginia elects Republican Congress-
men, Maryland 8, Kentucky A, Vir-
ginia 2, North Carolina 8, Tennessee
4, Missouri Z, Delaware and even
Texas send 1 each. States that for a
long time were in the habit of electing
mixed delegations this time present
solid Republican front. Among them
| are Michigan, Iowa, Indiana, Con-
| necticut, New Jersey and Kansas.
|
makeup of the delegations are not
| less startling. New York sends %
Republicans and 5 Democrats, Penn
| sylvania % Republicans and only
Democrat, Ohio Is Republicans and 8
Democrats, Illinois is Republicans
and Democrats ami Massachusetts
u Republicans and / Democrat.
The Populist party loses six of its
members. In the present Congress it
numbered eleven; the Fifty-fourth
| Congress will have but five.
In Minnesota the Republicans
elected their entire State ticket and
the whole Congressional delegation of
| seven. Missouri contributes one of
| the biggest of the long list of surprises
| by leaving the Democratic column
| and making further inroad upon the
already broken solid South. The Re-
| publicans elected their entire State
| ticket and the Legislature, as well as
| eight of the fifteen Congressman.
Iowa has gone Republican by plu-
rality almost as big as she gave Gar
field. The Republicans have elected
| ten Congressmen certainly and are
claiming the eleventh. The Utah
Republicans elected their Congress
man and will control the constitu-
| tional convention.
| Already discussions are heard as to
the party organization in the House.
1t seems to be generally conceded that
Thomas 3. Reed will be Speaker
again, and it is very likely Burrows of
| Michigan will be chairman OF the
| Ways and Means Committee and
Cannon of Illinois chairman of the
Appropriations Committee of the
| House.
If fusion Legislature is elected in
North Carolina, the Democrats will
suffer a further loss of two, of which
the Republicans will gain one, making
the Senate stand: Democrats 80; Re-
publicans 43, Populists 6.
If it turns out that the Republicans
have elected the Tennessee Legisla-
ture, the Democrats will lose one
more, which the Republicans will
! gain, and the Senate will stand: Dem
