The West Virginia Republican ma
jority continues to grow. and is now
near the 21,OOO mark, which 1t will
doubtless reach when the missing
complete figures from few counties
in the interior are received. The estl.
mated majorities in some of the
Democratic counties were too large, it
has been shown ALREADY, and when
1.-THE final figures are received from
Hardy, Pendleton, Nicholas. Boone
and one or two other counties it will
doubtless result in the aggregate Re.
publican majority in the State going
up few notches higher,
The majority Of Congressman
JamesA. Hughes in the Fifth (HuntI
ington) district goes up hourly, and IT
Is now at 6,3Ss, nearly his 1904 presi.
dental year majority Of 6,7OO. In the
Second district complete returns and
the correction of a mistake of 100 in
the Taylor county returns, shove up
the sturgiss majority in the Second
district to 3,601 with complete figures
missing from two or three interior
democratic counties that will likely
give Mr. sturgiss a hundred or more
additional.
In view of the light vote in the ag-
gregate the Republican majority Of
81, 900 ID West Virginia last Tuesday
Is really a greater performance than.
the majority Of $1,000 given President
Roosevelt two years ago
The Colcord majority Of six in the
Eighth senatorial district remains six
as reported yesterday morning. and
there is to be recount, Nthe result of
which remains to be seen. In Logan
and Boone the election machinery IS
controlled by the Democrats, while in
Kanayha It is in the hands of the Re-
publicqas, a probable result would Le
the settlement, Of the contest by the
r. Xxx state Senate itself.
