gave assurances of reducing the pres
ent democratic majority of 141 in the
house of representatives by a big ma
jority.
At an early hour this morning the
returns from various states showed a
net gain of AZ seats for the republi-
cans. Many districts are yet to be
heard from. Republican leaders to-
night were jubilart over the prospects,
some predicting that the democratic
majority might be overturned alto
gether by the final results.
Democratic control of the senate,
however, was assured, the probability
being that it would besincreased from
10 to IL through the election of Roger
lC. Sullivan in Illinois.
The sweeping republican victory in
New York, the collapse of the pro.
gressive vote throughout the country
and the upheaval in the democratic
congressional districts generally were
taken as assurances by republican par
tizans that the tariff had entered into
the national political conflict with
telling effect.
Latest available returns on the
congressional delegation from New

81 democrats elected, and one pro

AS REPORTED WEDNESDAY MORNING

cisive, it seemed that Nose Alexander,
democrat, of Boise, had a good start
over Governor John M. Haines, the
republican nominee for governor.
The increased republican vote af-
fected the results in several state con-
tests. New York, New Hampshire and
Colorado, which now have democratic
governors, elected republicans. lncom-
plete returns from Kansas, now under
democratic administration, showed
that the republican ticket was in the
lead and in Oklahoma the election of
the democratic candidate was not as
sured.
In a few instances, however, there
were democratic gains. In Minnesota
Idaho and Tennessee, which have re-
publican governors, and Nevada, with

were in the lead late tonight. Ohio
was still in doubt, with the democratic
incumbent, Governor Cox, in the lead.

In California there was an exception
to the progressive slump. Such re-

executive, who was up for reelection.
