In that there were Democratic gains,
election resulted as most politicians ex-
pected.
But few, if any, on either side,
thought these gains would be as great
as they We're.
In the present Congress the Republi-
cans have a majority of "a in the Sen
ate and 165 in the House of Representa-.
tives.
In the next Congress the Republican
Senate majority will be 10, and in the
House Of Representatives II.
More--among the SO Republicans who
will have seats in the next Senate there
are nine who, If they do as they prom
Use and as their records indicate they
will do. will refuse to be bound by party
ties except when they please. 1t seems
extremely likely that, very often, they
will not please.
Prospects are that these nine, with
DR.. Shpstead, IA new FarmerLabor sen.
ator, will be a more or less independ
ent group. The REPUBLICANS cannot count
on their votes. OF course the Democrats
will try to win their help, and if, and
whenever they succeed in doing so, the
Senate majority will be on that side.
In the House OF Representatives also
there probably will be enough republi
cans who regard party ties lightly tC
make a majority of only II an uncertain
thing.
Neither Side Seem TO Suit
In 1920 the voters gave the Repub
licans an enormous majority. Previous
ly Congress. as well as the admnistra
ton had been Democratic. Seemingly
the electors did not like the way IL
which the Democrats had managed nat
ional affairs
Now, in 1922, the country swings
away from the Republicans almost a
strongly as it swang toward them be
fore. Seemingly, again, the voters d'

two years, have improved conditions

Illinois and Ohio voters were asked to
express preference between the present
dry rule and the legalizing of beer and
wine. New York Democrats had a wine

Massachusetts, and California, which
have no state dry laws to support nat.

such laws. In New Jersey the rival can
