CONTROL OF HOUSE
Republicans Confident; Democrats Hopeful.

With the Congressional elections next
Tuesday the chairmen Of the two Con-
gressiOnal committees are beginning to
make unofficial predictions as TO what
the political harvest will be. The Re
publicans believe they will control the
House by a majority somewhere around
fifty; quite a reduction from the present
majority of 112. The present Republi-
can prepOnderance in the House was due
to the Roosevelt landslide Of 1904, and
many districts the party natur-
ally stands to lose in the pending battle
At Democratic Congressional head
quarters in Washington no official state
ment is obtainable, but there is a great
deal Of hopefulness, and those who have
access to the reports received at these
headquarters, and the table that has
been compiled by Chairman Griggs and
Others, make the assertion that the Dem
ocrats will control the next House. One
enthusiast figured out that
the Democrats would make a gain Of
sixty-seVen districts. II this We're true
the Democrats would have majority
in the next House oftwenty-two.
