| governorship from start to finish. So
many conflicting statements enter into
the fight that it is not safe to predict
the result, but the chances seem to

count OF the large DETECTION of demo-
Gratis from the Hearst standard. The
! latter, however, will have large gains
| from the labor vote, and claims city
and state. In Pennsylvania there Is a
very sharp contest for governor be-
tween Lewis Emery, Jr., the fusion
| nominee of the Lincoln republicans
and the democrats, and Edwin s.
| Stuart, once mayor OF Philadelphia,
the republican candidate Both sides
claim the state, and 1t ise difficult to
tell which will win. The republican
| congressional committee claims that
the republicans will have sixty major
ity in the house Of representatives.
The democratic congressional commit
tee claims that the republicans will
not have forty majority in the house.
