THE LEGISLATURE IN DOUBT.

THE LEGISLATURE IN DOUBT.
The most careful estimates shows
the Republicans have elected about
fifty members of the lower house, and
the returns show the Democratic rep
resentation to be forty-one. There
are nine legislative districts that are
unreported. In the last House these
districts were represented by Demo
Gratis. If the Democrat is elected in
every one of them the best the Demo
Gratis can do will be to make tie in
the lower house, Republicans and
Democrats each having fifty members.
For the upper House nineteen SEN
ators were chosen yesterday. Ten of
these are Democrats, and there are
nineteen hold-over Senators, FIVE of
whom are Republicans and fourteen
Democrats. This will make the vote
in the Senate, Democrats "a, Republi-
cans IA, and on joint ballot stand:
Democrats 65, Republicans GA, doubt
full and unreported districts 9.
Until those nine doubtful districts
are officially reported it will not be
known whether this Legislature will
send a Democrat or Republican to
the United States Senate.
