PLURALITY WILL BE 10000

eight Dele
gates.

Newark, May 29.-One of the most
sweeping victories Theodore Roose'
welt has won in the primaries since he
began his campaign for the Republic
can presidential nomination was re.
corded by the Republican voters Of
New Jersey. Indications based on in
complete returns are that Roosevelt
carried every congressional district in
the state as we'll as the state at large
and that all the % delegates New Jer-
sey will send to Chicago will be
Roosevelt men.
Gov. Wilson won his own state
against strong opposition headed by
his political enemies within the state
gates including the delegates at large.
Col Roosevelt's indicated plurality
on the preferential vote is 10000.
Senator La Toilette made a showing
in every county, but his vote as far as
counted, indicated that he would not
get more than per cent of the total.
Governor Wilson's opponents had to
be satisfied with the strong showing
they made in Essex county, the strong
hold of the former Senator James
Smith, Jr.. and former Democratic
State Committeeman James r. Nu-
gent. Indications We're that Wilson
delegates had been elected in the
state at large and in all but two of
the districts. The Newark Star, which
Is owned by former Senator Smith,
conceded Governor Wilson's success.
Delegates elected not pledged to Gov
ernor Wilson will 90 to the convention
uninstructed.
Early Returns.
The official count in the 1899 cleo.
ton districts of the state accumulated
slowly. The 315 districts that report.
ed first on the votes for delegates al
large gave no indication of the actual
results of the primaries. The figures
on these districts, little more than q
sixth of the total vote were:
Taft, 1920; Roosevelt, 1880; La
Toilette, 315.
Figures on the presidential prefer.
entail vote at that time were practi.
cally the same.
Col. Roosevelt's lead was apparent
as soon as the returns began to come
IN. but it was past midnight, three
hours after the polls closed, before
the Taft leaders conceded defeat. Tho
president had made good showing in
the city OF Newark and this caused
his managers to send few cheering
messages to the White House. When
results began to come in from the
more sparsely settled districts in the
southern end of the state. the presi.
dents defeat became increasingly evi.
