No estimated majority is made on him.

There we're some great republican
gains. The wild democratic strong
hold, Cavalier county, has gone re-
publican, aud Laidlaw has defeated
Charley Plain for. tho senate. Clark
defeated the democratic nominee in
Rolette. and wires that his district will
go republican by $50 majority. Carl
blom whooped things up in Sargent
county, and that hot bed of populism
has taken a ride on the republican
band wagon. Barnes county has also
enrolled itself in the republican
column. All the additional reports
are of q most encouraging nature, and
the percentage Of republican majority
will be greater than two years ago.
The greatest landslide was on the
legislature. The republicans claimed
only fourteen to twenty majority.
The returns today show that 81 of the
81 members Of the senate are safety
republican, with two in doubt. In the
house 81 of the 62 are republican, with
four more in doubt. This will give
the republicans a majority of Sc on
joint ballot, and that shou Id elect a
republican senator without much
trouble. Chairman Robinson and
Secretaries Jewell and Hamilton are
surprised at the over whelming
majority.

Washington, Nov. 9.-Returns re-
ceived from oil over the country indi-
cate that IS republicans and 100 demo-
Gratis have certainly been elected to
seats in the national house of repre-
sentatives. Same districts two years
ago los republicans and 80 democrats.
The house will be very close and it is
possible the combined opposition may
have a majority wei the republicans.

congressional committee claims that

sixth congress with a majority of

HI LOOKS BETTER.
Washington, Nov. 9.-Chairman Bah
cock of the republican congressional
committee, said this evening that the
house of representatives of the seth
congress would be republican without
doubt. In a statement to the Asso-
ciated Press this evening Chairman
Babcock said: "Theres can be no
longer any reasonable arguement over
the political complexion of the next
house Of representatives. It will be
republican without doubt. Our ad-
vices show the certain election of 1856
republicans, six than enough to
give us control. These are straight
republicans and our majority will be
over the combined opposition. Our
information induces us to place nine
districts in doubt. These are the
Seventh in California, the Third,
Fourth, Fifth and Sixth in Nebraska;
Seventeenth, Nineteenth and Twenty
sixth in Pennsylvania, and the
Twentieth in Texas. We are reason
ably certain to get some of these.
Without these we may, however, have
a clear majority and are resting per-
fectly easy.
