NEBRASKA TURNS A sOMeRSAULT

New York, Nov. 10.-The latest fig
ures obtainable show that Roosevelt's
plurality in the state is not far from
10000. Only ten counties in the state
gave Van Wyck pluralities and they
were all localities swayed by cities, as
New York, Kings, Queens and Erie.
The result ON congressman in this
state seems TO have surprised even the
democrats themselves. Nineteen OF
their candidates were elected, the re-
public8ns getting but fifteen. In the
present house the New York aelcga-
ton stands % republicans to 6 demo-
Gratis. In Greater New York all the
democratic candidates were elected.
The state senate will be republican
by four and the assembly by twenty.
Political interest from now on will
center about the senatorship and al
ready discussions as 10 the probable
aspirants have already begun. So far
there is no announced candidate and
the republican organization has not
declared itself.
