tors In Camden. Gloucester, somerset.
Union and Essex, and probably in
Salem and Monmouth. The Democrats
have elected but one SENATOR in War
rem.
The senate will stand IA Republi-
cans to Democrats. The Democrats
lost three asseInblymen in Middlesex
and ono IN Salem, and the next assem-
bly, will be composed of Al Republicans
and 1S Democrats. as against 81 Re
publicans and % Democrats last year.
The result in Monmouth is very close,
but IL is believed that the Republicans
have elected Francis senator, and that
the Democrats have elected assembly
men and county officers.
The Republicans carried Cumberland
for the assembly. but the Democrats
elected the county clerk and sheriff.
The Republicans carried their entire
ticket in Middlesex and Union coun-
ties.
The Republicans made a clean
sweep in Passaic county, electfng four
assemblymen and the two coroners.
The assemblymen get about $500.
The Republicans carry Union coun-
ty by about 2,200 for senator and as
sembly. William Howard (Rep-). for
county clerk, ran behind his ticket
by about 800. but is safe. Robert c.
Houston (Rep.), for sheriff, is elected
by about 1000
Sussex county went Democratic,
eIecting Elvin e. Smith, the retiring
member. TO the assembly for another
term. John M. Hotalen (Dem) was
elected sheriff.
The result of yesterdays election
greatly improves the chances of Uni
ted States Senator William j. SewelI
20 succeed himself in the senate The
senate will remain Republican for two
years more. as next year the senator's
retiring arc all Democrats except one,
who is from a county almost certainly
Republican, so the Democrats cannot
make any gain, and in the senatorial
elections next year they will have ev-
erything TO lose and nothing to gain.
Yesterdays elections for assembly,
men are taken here to indicate that
the Republicans cannot lose next year.
The appointment of Republicans for
state treasurer and other state Of
ficers this winter is assured.
The Democratic majority in Hudson
county is about 10000 Jersey City
save little over 5000 of this; Ho-
bos~sn about $500. North Hudson
about 1.50o and the rest of the county
about 1000. The majority will run
between 10000 and IL 600.
