His name is also said to have been found on the memorandum picked up in the recent raid of the Rosenbaum gambling place. The question naturally arises : What action will this grand jury take toward investigating the gamblers who are said to have patronized this gambling bouse ? -

The result of the elections Tuesday is particularly gratifying to democrats in general all over the country. Not only have they made substantial gains throughout the country, but the republicans suffered the greatest losses generally where a stand-pat tariff policy was most strongly urged. This demonstrates that the people are not with the republican leaders on the tariff question, and no doubt thousands voted the ticket again this year under protest. President Roosevelt’s interference in a state campaign was resented in New York, for Utica, the boyhood home of Secretary Root, and where his bitter and venomous speech “by authority of the president” was made, returned a majority for Hearst. Roosevelt lowered himself in the estimation of the American people in this matter, and it ought to be beneath the dignity of the president to mix in petty politics in this way or to allow any member of his cabinet to make political speeches during a campaign. Taken all together there is a good deal to be thankful over in the result of this election for the believers in democratic principles. It could have been better, yet it might have been very much worse. PULPIT ANNOUNCEMENTS.

HUGHES DEFEATS EDITOR HEARST

New York Democrats Apparently Elect Balance of State Ticket. ILLINOIS GOES REPUBLICAN Entire State Ticket Elected by Pluralities Larger Than Were Expected. Congressman Babcock of Wisconsin Defeated Missouri Back in the Democratic ColumnOther Results. Chicago, Nov. B.—The latest returns on congressmen, compiled by The Associated Press, give the following resuit: Republicans elected, 223; Democrats, 163. New York, Nov. 7.—Charles E. Hughes, Republican, has been elected governor of the state of New York by a plurality of 00,000, according to latest figures. William R. Hearst, his opponent, has a clear plurality in every borough of Greater New York, but Hughes’ vote up-state overcame this and left the Republican candidate with the margin of votes already

CHARLES E. HUGHES.

given. Hearst’s total plurality 1n Greater New York, with sixty-nine districts missing, as indicated by unofficial returns early in the day, was 76,956. Mr. Hearst also polled 841 plurality in two up state counties. Looks Like Bruce is Beaten. New York. Nov. B.—There is still doubt as to who is elected lieutenant governor of New York. Sixteen counties have not reported the official count at this hour, but on of the figures in hand the result seems to favor Lewis Stuyvesant Chanler on the Democratic-Independence League ticket. Whatever the result may be the figures will be close, and until complete official returns shall have been made by all the counties now missing it will be impossible to do more than to guess at the winner. The total vote for the state, so far as returned, including the Democrat/ ic stronghold of the city of Greater New York for lieutenant governor, is Chanler. is 694.234; Bruce. 519.479. It appears that outside of the candidates for governor, and possibly for lieutenant governor, the Democratic ticket is elected. In Greater New York Chanler’s majority over Bruce is 134.941. and this big lead Bruce must overcome in the up-state counties. Among tbe missing counties la Westchester, which gave Hughes 8,000 plurality.

ILLINOIS HEAVILY REPUBLICAN Party Sweep* the State with Pluralities That Are Unexpected. Chicago, Nov. 7.—The Republicans swept Illinois from Egypt to Zion at the polls, electing their entire state ticket by pluralities of a size that exceeded the dreams of the patty soothsayers. For an “off year” the electors turned out in unusual numbers, and .the result was a duplication on . a smaller scale of the landslide of 1904. By pluralities estimated at 140.(XK) the voters landed a Republican in each of the six state offices on the blanket ballot, and in addition picked a legislature of an overwhelming Republican cast. Following is the state ticket elected: Treasurer. John F. Smulski; superintendent of public instruction, Francis G. Blair: university trustees, Carrie T.‘ Alexander, Frederick L. Hatch, Alexander M’Lean; university trustee (to fill vacancy) Lewis L. Lehman. The indications are that the Republican party will have eighty-eight seats in the lower house and forty-three in the senate—which means the re-elec-tion of Shelby M. Cullom as United States senator next winter. Chicago, Nov. B.—The head of the state ticket. Smulski (Rep.) for treasurer, got 67,710 plurality in Chicago. The county candidates—all Republicans—were given pluralities ranging from 52.000 down to about 1,000, the, latter being for Ferdinand L. Barnett, a negro who was nominated for Justice of the municipal court. Republican congressman are reelected in seven of the ten districts in I Cook county. | Danville, 111., Nov. 7,—Returns Indi-

cate the election of Speaker J. G. Cannon with possibly a slightly reduced figure from the vote of four years ago, when he carried the Eighteenth district Jiy 7.oß7*plurality. This is due to th*e warm fight of the Socialist-La-bor people.

WISCONSIN CHANGES SLIGHT Democrats Gain One Congressman by Defeating Babcock. Milwaukee. Nov. 7. —A gain of one congressman by the Democrats is the only change In the political complexion of Wisconsin over two years ago as shown by the returns. This change is the defeat of Congressman Joseph W. Babcock in the Third dlstric tb.v .Tames W. Murphy by a plurality of several hundred votes. The state returns indicate the election of Governor James O. Davidson, Republican, by a plurality of at least 60,000. The Democrats concede his election by from 40,000 to 60,000 and others claim th? figures will run as high as 75,000. The legislature is over'whelmingly Republican. The defeat of Congressman Babcock was due to heavy cutting of him by the Republicans, as Governor Davidson ran over 2,000 votes ahead of him. La Follette adherents made a strong campaign against Babcock. The election of a district attorney in Milwaukee county has resulted in the victory by about 100 votes of Francis E. McGovern, the independent Republican, attracted more general Interest perhaps than any other contest in the state. McGovern belongs to the LaFollette wing and was defeated at the primaries for the nomination by Frank A; Boden. It was claimed by McGovern’s friends that his defeat for the nomination was brought about by the aid of Democratic votes and after long consideration he consented to run as an independent.

THE RESULT IN OHIO Republicans Carry State Ticket, but Lose Some Congressmen. Columbus. 0.. Nov. 7.—ln a telegram to President Roosevelt Senator Charles Dick, chairman of the Republican state committee, claimed the election of all the Republican candidates on the state ticket by 75,000 and tho election of seventeen Republican congressmen. He based his claim on partial returns from 37 of the 88 counties in the state and on personal messages from the congressional candidates and county chairmen. The defeat or\ Hildebrand in the Sixth, J. C. Rossdr in the Fourth, and Congressman Stnyser in the Seventeenth, were the concessions, while the Fifth was held to be in doubt. Later press reports from the Ninth district announced the election of General Sherwood, independent Democrat, and various reports from the Sixth district agreed on the defeat of Ilildebrant by Matthew R. Denver. However, these were on admittedly Incomplete reports and the full returns may change the result of these two districts. Congressman Nicholas Longworth was re-elected in Cincinnati. Dayton, 0.. Nov. 7. —Revised figures show the election of Eugene Harding in the Third congressional district by a plurality of about 2,000 over James E. Campbell, the Democratic nominee. Harding carried the Soldiers’ Home by 1,826, Campbell receiving 470 votes. REPUBLICANSCARIIY MICHIGAN Warner’s Majority Over Hta Opponent Will Exceed 100.000. Detroit, Nov. 7. —Governor Fred M. Warner was re-elected by one of the largest majorities ever given a candidate for governor in Michigan. From all indications his majority over Charles 11. Kimmerle, his Democratic opponent, exceeds 100.009. He has carried every county in the state by majorities far greater than he did two years ago, when Woodbridge I. Ferris ran against him and was beaten by 60,000. With Governor Warner the whole state ticket is elected'. In only eight of the twelve congressional districts of the state were there contests and in every one of these eight the Republican candidates are elected by majorities ranging from 3.000 to 25.000. Those congressman who were reelected without opposition are Charles E. Townsend in the Second, William Alden Smith in the Fifth. Joseph W. Fordney in the Eight, and George A. Loud in the Tenth. The legislature, like that of 1905, will be solidly ftepublicnn, not a Democratic candidate for senator or representative having been elected.

IN DEMOCRATIC COLUMN Party Carries Missouri State Ticket and the Legislature. St. Louis, Nov. 7. —Notwithstanding returns from the state are coming in with proverbial tardiness, from what is known the fact seems established that Missouri has again returned to the ranks of Democracy. Chairman Evans of the Democratic state committee, holds to the claim of a majority of at least 18,000. But until all the returns are in, especially from the outlying districts in the south half of Missouri, the result is not conceded at the Republican state headquarters. The legislature seems Democratic in both branches beyond doubt. The Democrats will probably have 23 members of the senate and 80 members of the house land the Republicans 11 mcmbei* of the senate and (X) members of the house. z The Democrats not only re-elected their five congressmen, but made a gnin of eight more. The result in the Fifth district is yet undecided, but the indications are that Ellis, Republican, has defeated Wallace. Democrat. St. Louis, Nov. 7.—Complete returns from the 405 precincts of St. Louis

show that the Republican party had carried through its entire city ticket by pluralities ranging from 3,500 to 6,000 and that the Republican state candidates had received pluralities between 7,000 and 8,000 each in the city.

HOCH’S ELECTION IN DOUBT Balance of the Kansas Ticket Is Re-publican-Curious Coincidence. Topeka, Kan., Nov. B.—The re-elec-tion of Governor Hoch (Rep.) seems reasonably certain, although the Democratic committee still claims the state I for William A. Harris by a plurality ; of 3.300. According to figures received . by the Republican committee ninetyseven counties out of 105 give Hoch a plurality of 4.15 D. The Democrats claim that their figures on the same counties give Harris a plurality of nearly 2,000. and that the official returns will give him over 3,000. Marion county. Governor Hoch's borne, was carried by Harris by a majority of 139 votes, while Douglas county, Colonel Harris’ home, was carried by Governor Hoch by a majority of 130. Aside fr«n the head of the ticket there is no question as to the election of the entire Republican state ticket. The legislature will be overwhelmingly Republican in spite of big Den?ocratic gains. CUMMINS WINS HIS RACE May Have 25,000 Plurality in lowaTwo Democrats fer Congress. Des Moines, la., Nov. 8. Returns in lowa are still incomplete, but there is every reason to believe that Cummins will receive at least 20,00 plurality over Porter (Dem.). The early returns received on election night were discouraging to the Republican managers. but they came from unfavorable districts, and later reports continue to increase Cummihs’ lead. The Republican state committee confidently expects a 25.000 plurality and the Democrats concede 5,000. Two of lowa’s representatives in congress will be Democratic. Tracy (Dem.) winning in the First district and Hamilton (Dem.) in the Sixth. The next legislature will be Republican. It is certain that the Republicans will have a majority of at least fifty on joint ballot, and this Insures the re-, election of Jonathan P. Dolliver. HOOSIER STATE RESULTS Democrats Gain Two Representative* —Legislature Is Republican. Indianapolis, Nov. 8. —According to the latest returns Indiana went about 30.000 Republican in the election. The Democrats gained two representatives, one from the Eighth and one from the Eleventh districts. The latest returns. partly official and unofficial complete, show that the Republicans carried nine representatives and the Democrats forfr. Representative Chaney (Rep.), in the Second district,has a plurality of about 350. The Twelfth district shows Clarence C. Gilliams (Rep.) elected with a plurality of about 300. The Tirteenth district elected Brick (Rep.) by a plurality of 255. These were the three districts in doubt. The legislature will be Republican on joint ballot by about thirty.

Johnson Elected in Minnesota. St. Paul, Minn., Nov. 7. —Governor John A. Johnson, Democrat, has been re-elected governor of Minnesota by at least 40.000 plurality, and the final figures may go considerably higher. Tbe balance of the state ticket is Republican, with the possible exception of secretary of state, which meager returns show to be in doubt. The majorities of the Republican officials elected are from 25.000 to 60,000. James T. MacCleary, the present representative from tbe Second congressional district, and chairman of the ways and means committee of the house, has been defeated by his Democratic opponent, Winfield S. Hammond. Colorado la Republican. Denver, Nov. 7.—Returns are incomplete, but sufficient to show the election of the entire Republican state, congressional and judicial tickets and a Republican majority of 30 or more on joint ballot in tbe next legislature, which will elect a senator to succeed Thomas M, Patterson. Simon Guggenheim is the only avowed Republican candidate for the senatorshlp and he has had the support of the party leaders. Republicans claim pluralities above 20,000 for Rev. Henry A. Buchtel, candidate for governor, and their other nominees for state offices.

D„ Nov, B.—“We concede tbe defeat of Governor Sarles by Burke, his Democratic opponent, by a probable plurality of 2,000,” said Chairman Hanna, of the Republican state central committee. “We also concede tbe defeat of John Knauf, our candidate for judge of the supreme court, by Judge Fisk, on the Democratic ticket, by 6.000.

The election of Hitchcock (Dem.), in the Second. is conceded. Republicans have about two-thirds of the legislature.
