/ Dallas News this morning says:
Elections We're held yesterday in
many states and cities throughout the
country, showing varying results with
/ little indication of a widespread wave
of public sentiment.
In Massachusetts, Gov. Foss (Dem.)
/ claims his reelection by reduced
plurality OF about 10000, but the cleo
ton is not conceded and the result
VII be open 20 doubt until more tcln-
plete returns are received The first
returns showed marked gains for Lou
| is p. rockingham (Rep), which were
gradually reduced. Meager returns
indicate that other republican cand-
dates on the state ticket are slightly
ahead of their democratic opponents.
In Kentucky the voters took the
state from the republican column.
where it landed four years ago, by l.
600 votes, to the democratic side by
maiorities ranging from $4,000 to 40-
600. James B. McCreary will be the
I-?ev governor and will return to the
chair after lapse of thirty-two years
In that time he has held many other
offices. The entire democratic ticket
was swept in by one of the largest
maiorities in the history of the state.
In Rhode Island early returns indi-
cate the reelection of Gov. Pothier
(RepO over Louis A. Waterman
Denl by an increased majority.
New York state elected republican
assembly, thus depriving Gov. Dix
(Dem.) of the support he has hereto
fore had from a legislature democratic
in its branches. The present New
York assembly has a democratic ma
iority of twenty-four The newly elect
ed assembly will have a republican
majority of upward of thirty.
In New York City (Manhattan and
Bronx the Tammany strength was
materially reduced, but its candidates
for judicial and county offices were
elected by greatly reduced pluraities.
In Brooklyn the fusion, judicial and
county candidates We're successful,
with perhaps one exception.
New Jersey elected a legislature
which will probably give continued
support to Gov. Wilson (Dem) but

doubt
Early returns from the state cleo
ton in Maryland We're inconclusiye as
between Arthur p. German, democrat
c candidate for governor, and Philips
Lee Goldsborough (Rep.). On the first
meager returns republican state chair
man Hanna claimed the state for
Goldsborough
Mississippi elected a democratic gov
ernor and state officers by the usual
majorities.
The municipal elections in Ohio re-
suited in the election of Henry T. Hunt
tDemD as mayor of Cincinnati, New
ton d. Baker (Dem.) as mayor OF
Cleveland, George J. Karb (Dem) as
mayor OF Columbus. President Taft
cast his vote at Cincinnati
The first election held in the new
state of New Mexico is still in doubt,
both the republican and democratic
candidates for governor claiming cleo
ito non meager and early returns
indications point TO republican legis-
lature. which will elect two republican
United States senators.
Socialist gains marked the elections
and gave that party power in districts
where heretofore it had been unable
TO muster a counting vote.
In Schenectady, y. Y, the socialists
/ elected a mayor, all city officials ex
cept one. and majority OF the county
board In addition. the assembly dis
trict in with Schenectady is situated
sent in an assemblyman.
Ohio was another winning ground
for the Socialists. Eight cities elected
socialist mayors. Results today gave
them a total OF thousands in ADVANCE
lof any previous showing.
! I nthe seond Kansas congressional
district the socialists made extensive
gain.
| In several other states, among
them New Mexico, where socialists
had a full ticket in the field, further
