Is about r7,000.
Tho bulk of the vote to come Is from

Democratic Strongholds Captured
Returns today from the cicely con
tested congressional district1) show Re
publican victories in Democratic strong
holds. In the Rerks-Lehlgh district
and the Twenty -sixth, comprising Mon
roe! Pike, Carbon and Northampton
counties, both represented for years by
.Democrats, will send Republicans to
the next Cougress.
Three districts, the Sixteenth, Twon-
SC-flfth und Twenty-eighth, are still in
pnbt. ,
Late returns Indicate that the Demo
crats did not elect a single state sena
tor. Tho only one the Republicans con
ceded to the Democrats was Berks
county, but figures jtiNt received indi
cate the election by 1200 majority of
James B. Norton, Republican, over
Wilson O. Snilg, one of the prominent
members of the House who aspired to
no to the other side of the State Cap
itol. - It is sold to bo the first instance
where Berks county sent a Republican
to the state Senate.
' Penrose Gets Biggest Majority
.Senator Penrose, who has been 111 for
k"year and took no conspicuous part in
the campaign, was elected for the fifth
time' three times by tho vote of tho
Legislature and twice by popular vote.
Six years ngo he defeated Clifford Pin-
chot. runnini! on the Prntrrcsslvp tloknt. I
by 250.000. and A. Mitchell Pnlmcr,
the Democratic candidate by 253,000.
Four years ago. Senator P. C Knox was
elected by a plurality of 230.000.
f Tho vote for Eugene Debs, the So
cialist presidential candidate for Presi
dent in Phi'adelphla was 17.527. Four
years ago the Socialist presidential can
didate received 4710, showing n Social
ist gain in this city over four years ngo
orl2.811.
Mrs. Leah Cobb Marlon. Prohlibtlon
candidate for United States senator, re
ceived a large vote, according to early
returns.
The entire Republlcnn state ticket
was also swept into office by large
jflhral'ties. ' Charles. .A. .Snyder, 'of
Pottsvllle, now auditor general, was
elected state treasurer, dcfcaUng Peter
Elsosser, of York county.
J Samuel S. Lewis, York county, was
telectcd auditor general over Arthur Mo
Kean, his Democratic opponent.
I There was no opposition to the elcc
jtlo'n of Judge Sylvcstir B. Sutllcr, of
Cumberland county, to tho Supremo
Court bench, nor to William 11. Linn,
'of Phi adelphla. for the Superior Court.
Both ran on tho nonpartisan ballot
and were the so'c nominees by reason
of the fact that they polled more than
B0 per cent of the vote cast for those
offices at the May primary. Judge Snd
ler is elected for twenty-one years and
'Judge Linn for ten years. Judge Linn
as appointed to the Superior Court
.bench a year ago by Governor Sproul
to fill u vacancy.
Tho four Republican candidates for

.Congress ftom l'cnnsylvanin, according i
to returns received today from every
district in tho state. He is Guy E.
Campbell, of Allegheny, who had both
the Republican and Democratic nomi
nations. The political complexion of
the present delegation is thirty-seven
Republicans, seven Democrats, one In
jdependent Republican, with one va
cancy. Three of the Democratic Htronghnlds

Democrats to Congress, have been cup

,tho latest unofficial returns. Theso

Community League Defeats Ordi
nance, but Falls to Elect Waller
Palmyra, N. J Nov. 3. Palmyra's
(ewer ordinance, which was tho basis of
the wortt spltlted political fight in a
decade here, was defeated badly in a
referendum vote yesterday, as the result
of the organized opposition of tho Com
munity League.
The Community League apparently
failed in Its effort to oust Township
Committeeman Stewart, who helped pass
the ordiunnce last spring and whom the
league attempted to defeat with a Dem
ocratic candidate, Joseph Waller,
backed by a bipartisan vote. Waller
carried the first and second districts by
a small majority, but Stewart's lead
In the third and largest district at an
early hour this morning was regarded
sufficient to elect him, although tho re
turiiK were not complete.

Harmony Program Looked for
in Legislature With Vara
Sonato Majority
CLEAN SWEEP FOR G, 0. P.
Elections of Phlladclphlani to tho
stato Senate and House yesterday re
sulted in sending legislators to Harris
burg a majority of whom will stand by
measures favored by tho Moore admin
istration. Not a single Democrat was chosen. A
solid delegation of forty-ono Republlcnn
members of the House wns elected, while
four Republican stato senators, repre
senting tho odd-numbered districts, were
elcctcq.
Friends of Mayor Moore and Senator
Penrose, will control the delegation to the
House. The Varcs, as tilings stand
now, will liavo a majority of the eight
Philadelphia members of tho Scuatc.
Varo Is Re-niccted
Senator Varo wan re-elected in the
First district by a majority of 21,000
Scnntor McNiehol. In the Third dis
trict, with both the Republican and
Democratic nominations, received a re
election by tho virtually unanimous vote
of 24,855, Former State Representative
Mnz Aron, a Heutcnnnt of David II.
Lane, sage of tho organization, wnH
chosen to succeed the late Senator Mar
tin by n majority of about 17,000.
In the Seventh district Senator Dalx
was re-elected by a majority of about
25.000. The hold -over senators are
Salus, in the Second district; Patton,
in tho Fourth ; Woodward, in the Siith,
and Gray, in the Eighth.
Of tho eight Philadelphia senators,
the Mayor's friend? count on at least
three Senators McNiehol, "Woodward
and Dalx.

Fox Snowed Under
There was scarcely the semblance of
n contest for seats in the Houst! the
Republican candidates won right down
the line. Only In the Nineteenth dis
trict was trouble threatened. Arthur
R. II. Fox, who had been defeated In the
primaries, ran on the American Party
ticket, but he was snowed under by the
regular Republican nominees, Haws and
Miller, who had 12,000 votes each to
only 1218 for Fox. Neither did any
thing develop in South Philadelphia,
where there was some talk of cutting
of Trainer candidates for the Legisla
ture by the Vares,
In a general way the I Philadelphia
delegation to tho House splits twenty
two for friends of the Mnyor, against
nineteen for the Vnres. This situation,
however, may be materially changed by
later developments, such as the much
dlbcusscd harmony program for next
year, the activity of the Mayor nnd the
nnat "landing places" or Judge Brown,
of the Municipal Court, and Thomas
W. Cunningham, clerk of the Court of
Quarter Sessions.
Members of the House, who are re
garded as very cloc to tho Varcs are:
Glass and McGowun, In the First dis
trict, Baldl in tho Second, Love in the
Fifth. Stevens In tho Sixth, Asburv iu
the Seventh, McCarthy and Smith in
the Eighth, Smith in the Fifteenth and
Sterling in tho Twenty-sixth. Thc-e do
not represent a.ll"who will probably
jshuuUby JHotVartti, They will have
friends among legislators who owe spe
cial allegiance to so-called Varca lead
ers. Trainer Wins Seat
The Trainer brothers w4ll be repre
sented In the House by Harry J.Traiuer,
of the Third district, and ,by 'Paulql J.
Green nnd Isaac L. S, Smlnk. of the
Fifth district. Arnold M. Blumberg
Trainer
'a colleague in tho Third district! I
rcseutntive of the Fifth ward and
is a rem-
will probably counsel with nines A
Carey and the Trainer brothers. The
Trnincr brothers, more particularly than
some of the other ,1'enrose leaders, arc
allies of the Moore administration.
James V. LafFcrty-, of the Fourth dis
trict, is a speciul representative of tho
ward. Representative Lafferty is an
4ihiiiii tuu. ajvuuvwa, ainiuii. O liuiiiu
i any ot "JiucK ' uevnn, Penrose leader

Herman DllRheimer. Sr., was elected
to represent the Ninth district. He is

lender nf tlio Twentieth wnril. hn mire
was a Penrose lendor and more recently
has been In the Vare camp. While Sen
ator Penrose was at the shore on his
latest trip' Sbeehan was among his call
ers. Sheehan may figure in a possible
harmony program.
President Judge Brown, of the Mu
nicipal Court, who already has n hand
in local politics, dips into the state
Legislature by reason of the election of
two of his friends to tho state House
from tho Tenth district, which Is the
Fifteenth wnrd the home ward of the
president judge. These are AVilllnm ,f.
Brady and Richard D. Rums. The
judge is a close personal nnd political
friend of Thomas W, Cunningham,
president of tho Alliance. Both
"Judge" Cunninghnm nnd Judge
Brown, who are allied with Senntor
Penrose, have definite political lines
running Into the Vnro camp, all of
which helps to give rise to the gossip
about harmony. In this connection
much will denend upon the availability
nf Senator Penrose for active political
service.
Frank Stackhouse, elected Repre
sentative from the Eleventh district, is
a follower of Robert Grlcr, administra
tion and PcnroijQ leader of the Eight
eenth ward.
Varo Allegiance Uncertain
As candidates, the Representatives
from the Twelfth district, tho Nine
teenth wnrd, Harry Kceno nnd Lcw
rence F. McOwcu, were selected by tho
late Senator David Martin, Ordinarllv,
they may be credited to the Vare forces,
but developments may affect their posl-
t tion on poiuicui questions m iiarriB-
burg.
David II. Lane, nestor of the organi
zation, who hns been aligned with tho
Vare leadership, was responsible for the
nomination of Joseph Mnrcus and Clin
ton A. Sowers, elected Representatives
yesterday. Lane nnd Penrose had two
notable chats while they were at the
shore recently. Mnrcus Is now a com
mittee clerk of City Council.
State Representative Wullace Brom

credited to the Penrose-Mooro combi
nation. Edmonds to Bo Moore Leader

men are disposed to insist that Dunn's
final stand hns not been determined.
Hcretoforo Dunn has always voted in
the House with the Vare leadership.
The West Philadelphia district north
of Market street, the Seventeenth, Is
represented by a solid block of three
members, Campbell, Ileffernan nnd
Leeds, who are regarded as friends of
tho Mayor and Senator Penrose.
Magistrate William F. Campbell,
ltader of the Twenty-fifth ward, who
"put over" James J, Connolly as con
gressman, is behind Representatives
Perry and Snowdeu. of the Eighteenth
district. Campbell "trains" pretty
well with Cunningham and Senator
Penrose. Oscar Noll, another Penrose
leader, has ns his friends, Representa
tives Haws nnd Miller of the Nine
tcenth district.
A locnl harmony arrangement In tho
Twentieth district between Richard
Weglcin, president of Council, nnd
Peter K. Smith, Vare leader, resulted
in the election of Representatives Con
ner nnd Drinkhouse. Conner was Wcg
Icin's choice.
Moore leaders nsscrt that James
Franklin, of the Twcnty-iirBt district.
West Philadelphia, bouth of Market,
will stand by the Mnyor. He is, how
ever a friend of Registration Commis
sioner Walsh, one of Senator Varc.s
allies.
James A. Walker, the other Repre
sentative from this district, is allied
with Harry A. Mackcy, Vare leader of
