WILSON AND | WIN BY ————— Carried 38 of the 48 States. I. BR RUNS SECOND President Taft Carried Only Four States, CONGRESS IS DEMOCRATIC Will Have a Working Majority in Both Be New York, Nov. 7.—Woodrow Wil son, governor of New Jersey, was swept into the presidency of the Unit- ad States in Tuesday's election, with Governor Thomas R. Marshall, his running mate for the vice presidency, on a Democratic tidal wave. Thirty-eight of the forty-eight states of the Union are in the Democratic solumn, the house of representatives in the next congress is assured to that party by a majority of probably more than 160, and the Democrats will have 52 out of the 98 United States senators after March 4, 1913, a clear control of every department of the federal government. Many staunch old-line Republican states were among those captured by Wilson and Marshall, and the thirty- seven states credited to him give him 899 of the 531 electoral votes. The ' victory is only comparable to that in 1872 of U. S. Grant over Horace Gree- ley, when Grant reecived 286 elec- toral votes and Greeley 63. Of the ten states which rejected Wilson, six, with an electoral vote of 104, were credited to Colonel Roose- velt, the Progressive nominee, and four, with only 15 electoral votes, were credited to President Taft, the Republican nominee for re-election. Some of the states placed on this | line-up were very close and may be changed by more complete returns, ' Included among these were Iowa and South Dakota, believed to be for Col- onel Roosevelt; Minnesota and New Hampshire, classed as Wilson states, and Wyoming, which probably has gone for Taft. Pennsylvania went to Roosevelt by a plurality of 15,000. The city of Phil adelphia gave Taft a plurality of 11, 000, and it was a close race between the president and Wilson for second place in the state. | Governor Wilson has carried Maine, | Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Jer- sey, New York, Ohio, indiana, Wiscon- | sin, Kentucky, Maryland, Tennessee, Nebraska, and Oregon, all the south- ern states, and has probably carried Missouri, lowa and the Dakotas. New Mexico, which the Progressives thought was sure for Roosevelt, has been carried by Wilson. California is safely for Roosevelt, but in North Da- | kota, which the Democrats thought | was safe for Wilson, seems to be about equally divided between Taft and Roosevelt. Wilson has carried Missouri by 20, | 000. Major has been elected Demo cratic governor. The returns also show that both the upper and lower branch es of the Missouri legislature will be controlled by the Democrats. In California one of the interesting features of election day was the part taken by the women in their first presidential election. In Los Angeles the vote of the women was extraordi- narily heavy and was heavily Progres- sive. In San Francisco there were many women clerks of election, and in ; one district eighty wcmen did picket suty to prevent the election of Wolff | ‘or state senator and the constitu. Jional amendment permitting the re- establishment of race tracks, which | Wolff espoused. The returns from Louisiana have | brought sore disappointment to the Progressives of that state. The strong | anticipated anti-Roosevent sentiment | seems to have eaten into normal Dem- oeratic pluralities by less than 10 per l cent. In many parts of the state Debs ran ahead of Taft. In Indiana the Democratic governor is elected. Beveridge has been de- | feated and the legislature is Demo- cratic, Roosevelt carried Michigan by from | 76,000 to 100,000. Ferris, Democrat, for | governor, was elected by 25,000 plu- rality. In all the states where Rooseveit nd the Progressive candidates for | | p control of the election machinery the Republicans beginning witi: next year's municipal campaigns. This contre 2! Will extend to 1914 in the state Ww York state, in all counties where Q #car Straus, the Progressive oe for governor, has run sec ond to W Jlliam Sulzer, the Progres- pives will } ? ‘for five terms the MARSHALL A LANDSLIDE pachinery over the Republicans, be ginning with next year's municipal ' elections. This control will also ex- tend, according to law, to 1914, when a governor is to be elected and a leg- islagure is also to be elected which will elect a United States senator to succeed Elihu Root.

Philadelphia, Nov. 7.—Pennsylvania, one of the few states which was not swung into the Democratic column by the Wilson landslide, nevertheless felt the effect of the Democratic tide. Ai- though Roosevelt carried the siale, . many local contests were won by the | Democrats. Among the more notable changes was the defeat of Daniel F. Lafean, | Republican con- ' . and Roosevelt is nearly evenly divid- ; ed, I (Dem.) and Stubbs (Rep.) for Umtcd | States Senator, The President and the Vice President-Elect. TEXAS. ! Dallas.—Wilson has carried Texas by about 170,000. The vote for Tait . KANSAS, Topeka.—Roosevelt will carry Kan- sas over Wilson by about 10,000 piu- rality, Taft running a peor third. Cap- per (Rep.) for Governor, leads Hodge : is slightly ahead of Thompson (Dem.) SOUTH CAROLINA. Columbia,—The vote of South Caro- lina gave Wilson 62,000, Roosevelt 4,900, Taft 1,200, Debs 200. Tue no:- | mal Republican vote with a few ex- | ' ceptions was divided between’ Taft | + and Roosevelt in the proportion of 'T.R. WINS IN PENNSYLVANIA | Colonel's Vote in Western Part of the gressman from the York district. He was defeated by A. R. Brodbeck, his ! Democratic opponent, The Democrats also gained in the legislature, the Socialists losing their only seat through the defeat of Maur- er, of Reading. . Roosevelt's plurality over Wilson will be about 25,000, with Taft a close third, despite his plurality of 9520 | in Philadelphia. The state was oddly divided, appar- ently, in its allegiance. Many of the | rural districts show a strong leaning toward Wilson, while Allegheny coun- ty, which includes Pittsburgh, was overwhelmingly for Roosevelt. With | Philadelphia in line for Taft, this leaves the state divided in three. The Republicans elected their four congressmen-at-large in the state. ! They are John M. Morin, F. E. Lewis, A. H. Walters and A. R. Rupley. Two Democrats were elected to con- gress from Philadelphia districts, and | incomplete returns indicate that one or two congressional districts in the state now represented by Republicans have also been captured by the Demo- crats. The Republican state candidates were also elected, according to the in. somplete returns. They are Robert K. Young for state terasurer and A. W. Powell for auditor general. Roosevelt suffered losses in counties where his vote wa sexpected to be overwhelming. Lackawanna county was regarded as the citadel of the Progressives, but early returns indi. cate that Wilson was much stronger than was supposed. The miners voted almost solidly for the colonel, btu Wil. son received large support from the workmen in other industries in the about 3 to 1 for Roosevelt, GEORGIA. {4 Atlanta.—-Complete vote from 24 of | the 148 counties in Georgia give Wil- son 16,294, Taft 822, Roosevelt 1,952. | Complete returns from Fulton county, | including Atlanta, give Wilson 7,202 Taft 508, Roosevelt 1,705, Chafin 20. Debs 12, This indicates the vote of | the entire state. INDIANA. Indianapolis. — Indiana apparently went overwhelmingly Democratic. Governor Wilson had almost as many . votes as Taft and Roosevelt combined. For Governor, Samuel M. Ralston (Dem.) won out over Albert J. Beve- Hdge hil and Winfield T. Durbin (Rep. COLORADO. Denver.—Wiison curried this state by a substantial plurality. Figures on an estimated total vote of 270,000 in the state, Colorado should give Wil- son a plurality of about 40,000, with | Roosevelt second on the liat. MARYLAND. Baltimore.—Wilson carried Mary- land by from 20,000 to 25,000 plurality. All of the five Democratic Congress- . mén from Maryland were re-elected. KENTUCKY. Louisville.—Wilson carried Ken- tucky by a heavy majority, several strong Republican counties going intc the Democratic column. Louisville and the rest of the Fifth district went Democratic for the second time in a | quarter of a century. WASHINGTON. Seattie,~—Roosevelt’'s plurality in Washington will be 45,000 aad the Roosevelt vote has carried to victory the state ticket and the two concress- men-at-large. RHODE ISLAND. Providence.—The closeness of the | voting and the slowness of the returns | make it difficult to determine the out- come of the election before the hal- lots are all counted. Taft leads, how: ever, with Wilson second and Roose- velt last. OKLAHOMA. Oklahoma City.—Woodrow Wilson | carried Oklahoma by a majority esti. mated at 30,000. Senator Robert I. Owen, candidate for re-election under the Oregon plan, defeated his Repub- | lican opponent, Judge J. B. Dickerson, by a large majority. MONTANA. Helena.—Five precincts in Butte. Helena, Billings and Great Falls, the largest towns in Montana, give wil- | jon 315, Roosevelt 458, Taft 353, Debs NORTH CAROLINA. Raleigh,—Wilson swept the state by a large majority, Taft receiving a pit. fully small vote, being utterly ove shadowed by Roosevelt's vote. some important counties Taft not muster 50 votes. In one county he got none at all. The Legislatury will be overwhelmingly Democ Presidential contest was far out class: ed in popular interest by the triangu- lar one for Senator. Senator Sime mons was winner by a good majority. MAINE. Portland.—Wilson has a plurality | of about 10,000. The total vote is ap- I parently: Wilson 50,000, Roosevelt 40,000 Taft 27,000. Portland, the largest city in the state, gave Wilson a plurality of 936 over Roosevelt. Aroostook county gave Roosevelt a heavy plurality, Returns from 280 out of 521 cities, towns and planta- tions, comprising 387 out of 634 elec- tion precincts, gave Roosevelt 35,000, Taft 21,250, Wilson 39,878. Same Places in 1908 gave Bryan 27,685, Taft DELAWARE. Wilmington.—Returns are slow ia coming in, but it looks like Wilson. UN-OFFICIAL VOTE CAST AT THE GENERAL ELECTION HELD IN ‘CENTRE CO.
