Wisconsin on November Will give
Charles Evans Hughes, republican
candidate for president total vote OF
approximately 207, 900 as compared
with vote of $4,000 for Woodrow
Wilson The total vote on the gov
ernorship will be about 100000 for
Gov. E. L. Philip, republican, as
against vote of about 161, 900 for his
democratic opponent, Burt Williams.
United States Senator Robert M. La
Toilette was reelected with total of
about $4,000 votes. 1t is expected
that the official count will give Viii
liam F. Wolfe, the demo cratic candi-
date for the senatorship, $4,000 votes
in round numbers. This will give the
following pluralities: Hughes, $4,000;
Philip, $4,000: La Toilette, $4,000.
All Congressman Republican.
A solid republican delegation of
eleven members will be sent from
Wisconsin to the next congress. The
present delegation is composed of
eight republicans and three democrats.

elected in the eleven districts:

three present democratic congressman
who have been defeated for reelection
are Michael E. Burke in the Second
district, Michael K Reilly in the Sixth
district, and Thomas F. Konop in the
Ninth district.
Philip Controls Legislature.
The legislature will be republican,
and in probable sympathy with Gov.
Philipp's program. 1t is believed that
the governor will have comfortable
working majority in the senate.
OF the thirty-three senators, OF
which fifteen are holdovers, and eigh-
teen were elected, Gov. Philip ap-
pears to have eighteen, majority of
the senate. In the assembly the gov
ernor will have majority. 1t ap-
pears the membership will stand about
this way: Philip, Al; progressive re
publicans, %; democrats, IS; social
lists, g; doubtful, 4.
