ELECTIONS IN AZ STATES
Odell is Reelected Governor of
New York.
COLORADO GOES REPUBLICAN
Returns Indicate Election Of Peabody
Deadlock Continues in Delaware
Control of National Congress Re
m aims With the nat uhlitans

held yesterday in AZ states and the re-
turns indicate mat the control or the
national congress remains with the
Republican party. While Official re-
turns may make the working majority
OF the Republican party in the house a
close one, there is no doubt that IL will
be sufficient for all party purposes.
From a national standpoint the con.
troll of the lower branch of congress
was the real contest. Many OF the
states elected legislatures which will
choose United States senators, but the
result of these elections has in no way
imperilled the Republican majority
in the upper body. In those states
which elected governors there was no
state in which the party in power was
not continued in that position. In
same of the states, however there was
decided change from the vote cast
two years ago.
New York reelected Governor b. B.
Odell and the entire state ticket,
though the falling off in the Republic
an plurality, as compared to 1900, was
enormous: Odell's plurality is placed
at about 10000. The Democrats made
very slight gain in the legislature,
but not enough to injure the election
Of a Republican successor to Senator
Plat The Democrats also made
slight gains in the congressional cleo
tions, the unofficial figpres placing
the delegation at 20 Republicans and
II Democrats.
In Pennsylvania, Samuel w. Penny.
packer (Rep.) was elected governor

10000, while the legislature is over

| fight for United States senators,
while in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and

| sional districts attracted much inter.
est.
In Illinois, while official figures are
| lacking, there is every indication that

by good majority and that the next
| cessor to United States Senator Ma.
| son, will be safely Republican.
In Maryland the election was only
| for congressman, the Republicans
electing four of the six members.
In Michigan, the Republicans elect
| ed Governor Bliss and the entire state
| ticket, besides securing IL of the IL
| congressman. The legislature Is
strongly Republican, thus assuring the
election of ex-secretary of War Alger
| to the United States senate.
In New Jersey there was no change
in the present situation.
Massachusetts, went strongly Re.
| publican.
In Rhode Island the Democrats have
| elected Hon. l.. F. Carvin for govern
or, but with this exception the Repub-
lican state ticket will go through. The

In California, the returns indicate
that the governorship is in doubt. The
legislature probably will be Repub-
| lean
The latest reports from Montana
| give the state to Republicans.
Indications in Kansas are that the
Republican state ticket has been elect
! ed, with 8 congressman. The legis.
lature will be safely Republican
Returns from Nevada point to fu-
| sion victory In the state.

coded throughout the state OF Colo

Delaware seem to be in doubt and a
deadlock, as was the case two years
ago, is possibility.

by a plurality of more than 100000.
In Minnesota, a plurality of 10000 is
claimed for Van SAINT (Rep), for gov.
ernor.
| Ten Republican congressman and
one Democrat with the reelection OF
| Governor LaFollette, was indicated
by late returns from Wisconsin.
In the east the main interest cen
tered in the two great states Of New
York and Pennsylvania, in the latter
because of the conditions brought
about by the recent coal strike and
in New York because of It's bearing on
the future OF the party of the candi-
date for governor
The indications in New Hampshire
are that Nahem s. Bachelor, Repub.
lican candidate for governor was
elected over Henry F.. Hollis Dem }
by plurality of at least 10000 There
WAS heavy shrinkage from the vote
Of two years ago. The legislature is
Republican in both branches by large
majorities, ensuring a Republican sue
cessor to Senator Gallinger, who will
probably succeed himself.
