The Way Tuesday's
In the election of George M. Dimeling,
of Clearfield, to the State Senate, and John
Noll, of Bellefonte, we have two crumbs of
comfort for the crushing defeat adminis-
tered to the Fusion ticket at the polls on
Tuesday.
Never was there a more auspicious elee-
tion day than that of this week, and this
very fact acconnts to a certain extent for
the result, as there were too many stay-at-
home voters; farmers who took advantage
of the nice wzather to either husk corn or
raise potatoes. Iv this county the total
vote this year was about 425 less than
the Plummer—Berry vote last year, and
the big majority of the stay-at-homes was
over in Pennsvalley,the Democratic strong-
hold.
Notwithstanding this fact Emery carried
the county by a plurality of 203 votes.
The only other Democrat to have a ma-
jority was Jchn Noll who had 105 votes
more than Fryberger. For the Republicans
Barclay bad the biggest vote, his majority
over Taylor being 165. This, however,can
be accounted for by the fact that Barclay
bad been endorsed by the Prohibitionists
and consequently got that vote, which in-
creased bie total over two hundred. Quig-
ley carried the county over Dimeling by
99 of a majority.
The eiecticn itself was a very quiet and
orderly one. Owing to the rigorous pro-
visions of the Corrupt Practices act there
was not the usual crowd of floaters around
waiting to barter their vote for anything
from a drink of whiskey to a ten dollar
bill. Of course, some of the old stand-hys
were in evidence but they merely stood
around in groups and did not pester the
ward managers or the candidates as was
the custom in former years. If there was
apy whiskey around it was kept very much
under cover, while there was no attempt
made on the part of any one to buy votes
outright.
But the election is now a thing of the
past. The campaign was a strenanous one
from start to finish, There is nota voter
in Centre county or the State, for that
matter, who did not have the issues thrust
upon him day after day aud there can be
no alternative now. The only thing we
can do is to grin and bear it and hope lor
better results nexs time,
The official count in this county, which
was completed last evening shows the
majorties for the various candidates to be
as follows:

Stuart's Majority Estimated 52,533.
Official Returns on Governorship From 61
Counties. Close Senatorial Fights.
Complete returns from 61 of the 67 coun. |

from the other six counties, give Edwin 8, |

mates are made for Governor, are Alle. |

The vote in several of the counties was !
very close, notably in Potter, where Emery
had a majority of only 6 votes, and Wyom-
ing, which Stuart carried by 33. Stuart
bas 32,328 in Philadelphia. His probable
majority in Allegheny is 23,000,

hat Stoart, for Governor, has a lead over
Emery for the Governorship of something
like 70,000. Of this toral Philadelphia
contributes about 32,000, and Allegheny
county nearly as much more.
The other Republican State candidates,
Houck for Secretary of Internal Affairs,
Young for Auditor General and Murphy
for Lieutecant Governor, all have good
majorities, probably ranning in the order
named. ‘Farmer’ William T. Creasy,
fusion candidate for Auditor General, ap-
parently profited little by his special Pro-
hibition party indorsement.
Homer L. Castle's Prohibition vote for
the Governorship seems to be almost tri-
fling, when it is considered how much noise
he made daring the campaign. If be in-

of 7640, electing all caudidates on the
State ticket and twelve of the sixteen Con-
gressmen. The Republicans elected Coun-
gressmen in Kansas City and St. Louis, but

DEMOCRATIC GAINS IN JERSEY
Republicans Barely Control Legisla-
ture On Joint Ballot.
Trenton, N. J., Nov. 8.—Reviged re-
turns show that the Democrats will
have the house of assembly, 31 to 29,
and that the Democrats have elected
four congressmen in New Jersey, a
gain of three. The Democratic con-
gressmen elected are William Hughes,
Sixth district; Le Gage Pratt, Eighth
district; Edward W. Leake, Ninth dis-
trict; James A. Hamill, Tenth district.
The Democrats have elected their
senator and entire assembly district
in Passaic county and have elected
George Silzer to the state senate from
Middlesex county, defeating Senator
Jackson, who was a candidate for re- |
election, By about 100.
The legislature will be Republican
on joint ballot, 44 to 37. This gives
the Republicans three more than a ma-
jority, but Senator Colby, of Essex,
and Assembiyman-elect Fake, Repub-
licans, have announced that they will
not under any circumstances vote for
the re-eiection of United States Sen-
ator John F. Dryden. This would re-
duce Mr. Dryden's vote to 42, provided
he got the Republican caucus nomina-
tion. This would be only one more vote
than the necessary 41. There is talk
here that owing to the overwhelming:
defeat of the Republicans in Essex
county. Mr. Dryden's home county,
other candidates are liable to enter
the United States senatorial race, and
at this writing it is not absolutely cer-
tain that Mr. Dryden will succeed him-
self. One of the things that operates
against Mr. Dryden is the fact that
about three-fourths of the Republican
members of the legislature vin yo
from South Jersey. That section
tor, Mr. Kean
and Mr. Dryden both being from the
upper part of the state.
