The net result of the elections is
great Republican victory all along the
line for the national ticket In Massa-
chusetts the only surprise is found in
the election of Mr.. Douglas over Gov
ernor Bates notwithstanding that the
state has gone for Roosevelt by plu-
rality estimated in the neighborhood
of $4,000. Douglas plurality will
reach $4,000. The national election is a
Republican landslide. President Roose-
welt has carried every northern state.
New York gives him a plurality of
nearly if not quite 100000. The So
called dependent states, Connecticut and
New Jersey, which have been claimed
by the Democrats, have each given plu-
ralities for Roosevelt of at least 10000.

turns all point to emphatic Republican
pluralities. Illinois has given plu-
