TAFT'S PLURALITY IN NEW
YORK.

Judge Taits plurality in the
State of New York, according to
corrected returns late tonight, is
203,495, more han $4,000 in excess
OF President Roosevelts plurality of
four years ago. Gov. Charles +.
Hughes was reelected in New York
State by II, $50. The returns as
between president and governor
indicate a heavy splitting OF tickets.
The heavy vote in Ohio made
figures extraordinarily late owing to
the immense size Of the ballot. Mr.
Taft carried his own State, however
by $4,000 plurality a reduction Of
more than 100000 from the Roose-
welt vote OF four years ago. The

ALL THE NEWS OF THREE COUNTIES CONDENSED

headed by Judson Harmou for gov
ernor, appears to be safely elected.
The State legislature, which is to
choose successor to Senator For
aker. appears to be in doubt as be-
tween the Republicans and Demo
Gratis.
In Indiana, Mr.. Taft was success
full in carrying the State by about
5000, but the Democratic State
ticket, headed by Mr.. Marshall for
governor, was elected. The con
gressional delegation from the State
shows gain Of seven Democrats.
The returns from West Virginia,
owing to the mountainous character
of the country. are slow in coming
in. A sufficient number Of coun-
ties and districts have been heard
from, however, to show that Mr.,
Taft has safe plurality
Colorado early in the day shifted
from the doubtful column to the
Bryan list The legislature, which
is to choose a successor to Senator
Teller, also is apparently Demo
ratio.
Mr.. Bryan's victory in his home
State Of Nebraska was a sweeping
one. Five of Nebraska's six con-
gressmen will be Democrats, while
in the Legislature only Is Republi-
cans seem to be elected out Of a to-
tai OF l33 senators and representa-
tiveS.
An eleventh hour development
was the placing OF Missouri, here
tofore conceded to Bryan, in the
doubtful column. Should tonight's
returns continue the Taft lead, the
Republican candidate will win Is
additional votes, making his prob
able total 327, two more than was
originally claimed for him by Nat
ional Chairman Hitchcock.
The Batesburg advocate. [volume] (Batesburg, S.C.) 1901-1911, 1908-11-06

two less than he received in 1896.
In 1904 MI Parker received only
40 votes, in 1900 Mr.. Bryan re-
ceiveived l55 votes and in 1896 the
received ITO votes.
Mr.. TAFT 300 electoral votes com
pared with $50 received by Roose-
welt in 1904, 292 received by Nc
Ridley in 1000 and 27l received by
Mckinley in 1896.
No changes of material interest
have been reported in the congress
ional returns today. The Republi-
cans will have about the same work
ing majority in the Sixty-first con-
gress as at present and Joseph C.
Cannon of Illinois undoubtedly will
succeed himself as speaker Repre-
scntatives Jesse Overstreet of Indi-
ana and Hepburn of Iowa are the
most conspicuous among those who
have failed Of reelection.
The senate retains its Republican
complexion, although there will be a
material change in the personnel of
