STATEMENT FROM WILLIAMS.
BOSTON, MASS, November 3.-George
Fred williams, the Democratic candi-
date for Governor, has given out a
statement on the election, In which he
says in part:
my views upon yesterdays election
in Massachusetts are that Radicalism
under the Democratic name has been
strengthened somewhat in its position
and emboidened in it's course, and VIII
continue in the field a growing guam
tity, to be reckoned with in the near fu-
ture. The lines are obviously hardening
as between Republican conservatism ana
the Democratic policy OF change and up
heayal, and between the two no room
will evidently be found for building up
a leading opposition to Republicanism.
What is here said OF Massachusetts
applies with even greater force to the
rest of the country. The results there
and I'm Massachusetts ought TO be deci-
sve of the insignihcance OF what Is
called the Gold Democratic vote. The
farce has ended In Kentucky, and IT
ought to be clear to the little handful
in Massachusetts that there is no future
possibility of the maintenance OF an or

cratic party for these gentlemen"

At Republican State headquarters to-
night the list Of the districts are given

the Democratic managers is that which
includes Marion and Logan counties, and
which would make the Senate stand six
teen Republicans to twenty Democrats.
The Republicans concede that the Demo-
Gratis will have two majority In the Sen

therefore be passed.
The Republicans claim that the organi-
zation of the Senate depends upon the at

who issa Fusion Republican.
The Republican State Committee claims
that the two representatives from Sum-

tonight. and that the returns show the

Republican Plurality About 31,OOO-
Democratic Gains.


DES MONIES. IA, November 3.-The
returns by counties are nearly all in.
Chairman Mcmillan, OF the Republican
State Committee. has complete returns
from ninety-four counties, and has esti-
mated returns from the five remaining
counties. He figures plurality for Shaw
RepublicanD of about 3i,7S2. These
figures will vary but little. The plurality
may be set Gown as 'afJve $1,000. Chair
man Walsh thinks errors in the returns
may reduce the plurality for Shaw TO
10000.
The Republican plurality last year was
65522. Two years ago 1t was 5000 for
Drake, for Governor. Then the Populists
had a separate ticket. II the Populist
vote be subtracted, the Republicans would
have a larger plurality this year than
two years ago.
The Legislature IS safely Republican.
The Senate has fifty members. Thirty
eight are Republicans and twelve Popu-
lists and Democrats. The House has 100
neutrality-suspicious., 6l; Populists and
Democrats, 80.
The Republicans lost four members in
