HUGHES WINS
IN VERMONT
Carried State Yesterday by
Plurality of 10000 Over
President Wilson
GRAHAM GOVERNOR
BY A WIDER MARGIN
Senator Page and Congress
men Greene and Dale
All Reelected

Burlington, Nov, I'm what was the
largest total vote in her history, Yer
mont to-day gave to Charles Evans
Hughes, Republican presidential candi-
date, a plurality of nearly 10000 votes
over his Democratic opponent, Woodrow
Wilson. Republican pluralities have al
ways been larger in every election since
1886, with the exception of 1874 when a
divided party brought down the normal
Republican vote to virtually half its size.
At a. m, with the returns in from all
but as of the 246 cities and towns, the
figures stood; Hughes, 4r,257; Wilson,
5000, thus giving Hughes plurality of
Is,237.
AT the same hour, Horace F. Graham,
Republican gubernatorial candidate, had
received 4o,3o4 votes, to 1866 polled by
William B. Mayo, Democratic state stand
ard bearer.
The same cities and towns gave Carroll
S. Page, Republican candidate for re-elec-
tion to the United States Senate. 4I,oa7,
against 1898. for Oscar C. Miller, the
Democratic candidate.
The total vote of Hughes and Wilson,
based on the returns at hand at a. m,
was 64,a77, and it was expected that the
figures from the missing towns would
bring this total above the record vote of
64,77s cast in the famous Hayes Wheeler
contest in 1876.
Returns in the contest for state sena-
tor were missing from Addison and Ben
nington counties, hut the remaining coun-
ties, which elect 26 of the go members of
the Senate, did not send a single Demo-
crat to the upper house of the state
government.
The House of Representatives is over
Republican, the returns at
hand showing that r7s Republicans and
80 Democrats had been elected, with 2o
towns to be heard from.
An interesting feature of the returns
his Democratic rival William b. Mayo,
bans, where there is large population of
railroad employees. The legislature is
overwhelmingly Republican.

"REMEMBER 1894" .
Warned the Democrats on Returns Re-
ceived Up to Midnight.

New York. Nov. Just before mid.
night the election returns, still ineom-
plete in many states, indicated the elec-
tion Of Hughes and Fairbanks, but the
figures were very close and Democratic
managers steadfastly refused to coneede
a Republican victory. Remember 1872
was the prediction OF the Democratic
publicity bureau, which pointed out that
in that memorable cont :. { the next davis
revised returns placed Grover Cleveland
,n the White House.
