the state. The Republican says:
The majority for William Jennings
Bryan in this state will reach 10000
in all probability. The majority for
lanes b. Orman and the entire state
Otket is probably several thousand less
than that. This means the election by
majorities considerably less than the
majority received two years ago by
Governor Thomas of DavidC. Coates as
lieutenant governor; ID. A. Mills as sec
retary of state; DIR. ]. n. Chipley as
state treasurer; G. w. Crouter as state
auditor; c. c. Post as attorney general;
X. w. Steele as justice OF the supreme
Court, and Mrs. Helen l.. Grenfell as
superintendent of public instruction.
Mrs. Grenfell was reelected. 1t prob
ably will be found when the votes are
counted that she leads the state ticket
and comes nearer the full Bryan vote
than does any other Fusion candidate
ON the state ticket.
Honest John" Shafroth was again
elected to Congress from this district
and again was John c. Bell elected to
Congress from the Second district If
r.. NJ. Patterson is elected to the United
States Senate next winter there Will be
neither Republicans nor Democrats IN
Congress from this state. There would
in such an event be two Tellerites and
two Populists.
As to the Legislature the Republicans
will not give out any figures. The Dem
ocratic state committee and the chair
man of the Tellerite party claim that
the Republicans will have less than
dozen members of the Legislature, not
counting the one hold-over, Senator
Meyer. Conservative estimates allow
the Republicans Just n dozen of the leg
islators elected last Tuesday, although
more are claimed by them. One Repu
lican senator, NJ. H. Farwell, is said to
have won in the Twenty-third district,
which is composed of Otero. Prowers,
Bent, Baca and Kiowa counties. He is
apparently the only senator elected this
fall by the Republicans, although there
is still hope that in Jefferson county
nd Weld county the Republican can
ntlates are elected.
In the House there will be eleven Re
publican members. according to the
present outlook. The three, one each
from Huerfano. Costilla and Conejos
counties, the Republicans practically
elected when they nominated them, and
they are now formally elected. In Co
nejos county Celestino Garcia was
elected as n Republican and w. II.
Adams in the senatorial district as a

the float district. Archuleta and Cone
jos counties. Lewis w. Riley, Republi-
can, was successful, and will be the
fourth member of the House on the Re
publican side.
The other seven members elected as
Republicans are:
O. l.. Dickerson in Elbert and Lincoln
counties, but the Fusion nominee, ]. II.
Lundy, still processes hope of securing
the place.
Neil n. Mclean. in Lake, Baca and
Prowers counties.
william Walk. w. II. Boertenbach
p. NJ. Neene and II. E. Bartholomew,
in Pueblo county. Two of these places
in Pueblo county are claimed by the
Fusionists for John a. Martin and
Harry Hunt. but, although they lost
the senator in this county, the Repub-
licans do not consider these claims Sc
riOusly.
1t seems very likely now that in the
Thirteenth General Assembly there
will be just thirteen administration Re
publicans. This combination of thir-
teen may be considered an omen or
not. If the claims of the Fusionists
are well made, the Republican repre-
hentation will be less than this num-
~usionists elected to the Senate are:
]. Frank Adams, Theodore Mcclure
and John A. Rush, Arapahoe county.
Hume Lewis, Pueblo county.
II. III. Seldomridge, Ell Paso, Douglas
and Teller counties.
