aid of the Republican State Central
committee, states that Judges James
e. Garrigues. Benjamin Griffith, Mrs
Helen NJ Wilson, on the Republican
state ticket, were elected to the su-
prem bench, attorney general, super
intendent of schools and regent of the
university, respectively.
Mrs. Helen Marsh Wilson, Republi-
can candidate for state superintendent
of public instruction, has made a phe-
nomenal race in Denver county, and
has defeated Mrs. Katherine Cook.
Miss Anna L. Wolcott, Republican can
didate for regent of the State universi-
ty, has made even a stronger race than
Mrs. Wilson.
Legislative returns from the elec-
ton of Tuesday indicate that the Re-
publicans have lost senators and
gained IA members of the house. Only
one senator was reelected, John j. To-
bin. Seven members of the last house
have been advanced to seats in the up
per body. Few of the members who
stood for reelection failed, the nota-
BILE exception being that of Celestino
Garcia of Conejos, who has been called
the perpetual representative having
served in every legislature since the
state was admitted. His father had
been member in territorial days, and
in the constitutional convention. So
the younger Garcia's face has been the
most familiar to those who visited the
state house during assembly times.
OF the hOIdOvpr spnQfOrS nf which
there are IS. only three are RepublI-
can, so the body will be overwhelming
ly Democratic in both branches. FIJI
| teen holdover Democrats and the IL
elected Tuesday will give a total of 20,
sufficient to control all matters, even
to passing emergency clauses. The SO
members of the house will control all
legislation, but not be able to get
through emergency clauses of itself.
The full list of the members of both
houses, including the holdover sena-
tors and those just elected:

The two great leaders of the Re-
publican party, President Taft and
Theodore Roosevelt, alike met defeat
in their own states. Roosevelt's home
town of Oyster Bay went against him;
his congressional district chose
Democratic representative to replace
Congressman w. w. Cocks, Roose-
velt's warm personal friend; his state
repudiated the Republican candidate
for governor by $4,000. AS an addition
al blow, the New York State Legisla-
ture is Democratic and will elect a
Democratic Senator to succeed Chaun-
cey NJ Depew.
