STANLEY IS CONFIDENT.
Doesn't Think There Is Danger of Flu
sion Gains.

Governor Stanley does not believe there
is any danger that the Republicans will
lose control of the Legislature the coming
winter, although he comedies that there
Is possibility that the fusionists may
make gains. In discussing the factionaI
differences which endanger Republican
success in some legislative districts the
governor said he could count fifteen dis
tricts in which there is a bare possibility
for the fusionists to make gains by count
ing everything their way, but there are flu
sion districts in which the Republicans
may also make gains. 1t would require
gain of 30 members of the house for the
fusiOnists to secure a majority on joint
ballot. Governor Stanley does hot believe
1t possible for the fusionists to carry
enough Republican districts to endanger
