Trenton, N. j.. November 5.--As the

into history tonight, the opinion OF
a majority Of the voters OF this State
Is that Woodrow Wilson. Democratic

eynor Of New Jersey The ma jorlty
is figured all the way from 5000 to
$4,000. Judging from informat ton
gained by careful canvass of the
sentiment throughout the State, 1t Is
safe to predict that MI. Wilson VIII
be elected by majority not lower
than 5000 votes. Many influences
have contributed to- this: almost cer-
tain change of the political map in
this State. S5
In arriving at this conclusion, two
factors that 1t is necessary to deal
with We're carefully weighed, One
was the alienation of the labor vote
from Mr.. Wilson. Tho other was /,
general spirit of unrest that has
grown out Of the high cost OF living.
Mr.. Wilson'S very definite conclusion
on economic matters, which he has not
hesitated to express at all tines, is no
doubt responsible for the disfavor In
which he is held by the laboring ele-
ment.

State figures obtained from the county
chairman of both the Republican and

vases in their districts, indicate the
election of John A. Dix, the Democratic
candidate by a plurality of about 3d.
900. Under the circumstances. the
election of the other candidates on the
Democratic ticket Is in the balance.
The reports from upstate indicate a
loss to the Republicans OF at least
six seats in the state Senate. which
would make the Republican majority
there smaller than it has been for
many years, and the loss Of many
seats in the lower branch of the Legis-
lature. but not enough to overturn the
Republican majority there.
Short Campaign.
The campaign has been one OF the
shortest on record. In most localities
it has been Of less than two weeks
duration. In It's earliest stages it was
marked by extreme apathy in both the
Republican and the Democratic camps,
and it was not until the last days.
after the whirlwind tour of Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt and Henry L. Slim
son. and the speaking campaign of
prominent Democrats upstate had
fixed the attention of the voters on
the fact that a campaign was in prog
ress, that any interest began to be
exhibited by the public.
The Democrats have not entered q
campaign in the last fifteen years bet
ter prepared to do combat than they
were when the present campaign be-
gan. The Republicans, on the other
hand. seldom went to the battle for the
election of their candidates with more
