r ~ WHO WILL WIN?" f . The Democrats and Republinans are Fighting for the House. DEMOCRATS FAVORED One Hundred and Eighteen District* ' Are Debatable?Eighty-Two Seats Now Held by Iiepubllraus Are Now ( in the Balance?Squabbles Hunt Republicans and Help Democrats. The most momentuous eloction the country has seen in half a centu t a ?.:n rv is now in progress, u ?m mw mine whether the Republican party, the party of national administration is able to keep control of the National House of Representatives. Democrats of political foresight are emphatic in their claims that the next House will be Democratic and that the Hon. Champ Clark will be the immediate successor of the Hon. Joseph G. Cannon, Speaker. Dissatisfaction with* the Republican-made tariff is causing Republicans to give their support to the Democrats in the doubtful Congressional districts, of which political experts claim there are 118 in the country. There are 391 members of the House of Representatives. In the present House 217 of these are Republicans and 174 Democrats. It le trunnrallv rnnf>r>rlf>fl fhllt a.l'? 132 districts reasonably sure for the Republicans and 141 for the Democrats. This leaves 118 districts doubtful or debatable, in which the battle > for the control of the House is now raging with more thau the accustomed Congressional vigor. The Democrats feel they have a remarkable chance 4o show their strength in this campaign, while the Republicans, satisfied in some sections over the tariff are dissatisfied in others, in some sections torn by party fights and in other sections placidly content, are placed absolutely on the defensive behind breastworks not built of solid rock. Of the debatable districts mentioned, 82 are now held by the Republicans and 36 by Democrats. The fact that there are so many debatable Republican districts, indicates k on the surface that the Republican io In Q norilnilfl HpffHlsivP r>f>R ition, and that remarkable work must be done by Republican campaign managers in order to cave these districts and thus save the House for the Administration. Political experts in figuring upon the chances for a Democratic House rely greatly for a base of operations upon the three special Congressional election held early in the year. The first was in the Sixth Missouri distrct for a successor to the late David A. DeArinond. Mr. DeArmond, Democrat, had usually carried the district by 3,000. C. C. Dickinson Democrat, carried the district by approximately 3.800. The second, a pure out-and-out tariff battle, was held in the Fourteenth Massachusetts district, where the late William C. Lovering, Republican, was accustomed to polling a majority of 14,000. Here Eugene M. Foss, Democrat, was elected by a majority of 5,600, overturning as )UU a UCUJCUUUUO IlUIJIi/Ci V?I normal Republican votrs. The third was in the Thirty-second New York district, where James B. Havens, Democrat, was elected to succeed the late .Tames B. Perkins. Republican, whose normal majority was more than 10,000. Mr. Havens carried the district by a majority of about 7,000. In this election, the fight against the political principles of "Boss" Aldridse, Havens Republican opponent than against the tariff. These three remarkable special elections were responsible for the Democrats claiming in advance the next House of Representatives. They were remarkable, too, in showing the moderu tendency of voters to shift easily from one party to another. when occasions seem to demand vigorous party discipline. It must be remembered, however, that in the 82 acknowledged debatable 1 Republican districts, the contests will not be as strenuous as they were in the three districts mentioned i above, In Vermont, the Republicans show ed their displeasure of the present Administration by casting a very light vote for their two representatives, who, in order to be elected, had to promise not to vote for Jos- ; eph G. Cannon for Speaker. In Maine a month ago the Democrats won practically all along the line, two members of Congress managing to wiggle through in the general Re* 1 publican over'hrow. The Democrats in 'Maine, long a 1 Republican stronghold, got the governor, other state officers, both branches of the legislature, and two Congressmen. The eloction of a : Democratic successor to Senator ! Hale is therefore assured. The action ' in these New England states naturally filled the hearts of the Demo- ' crats throughout the country with ; hni)c. Even without the support of The- i odore Roosevelt, the "insurgents" in ; the Republican rauks had reached ' high water mark in the states of i California. Washington, Oregon. Wis consin. Minnesota. Iowa, and Miehi- < gan. In every state battle had raged * 'between the two wings of the party i and every inch of ground was con- '< [tested. , < In New Hampshire the Progressive had overtft^own the old machine ( at the open primacy, nominating Mr. ?

O Dennocntte Stand Good Chance to Control That Party. VICI The complex political battle of the day does not end with the formidable attack of the Democrats upon the House of Representatives xiiat The United States Senate, for years Republican, is in danger of losing 1>C its old-time control. The RepuLili- ^ cans have now, nominally, 26 majority, that is a majority of 136 6en- a ators representing Republic ia con- an v stitucncies. ] Howerer, among these 26 must c( e be included from seven to 12 "in- ^em surgent" senators, who frequently whei vote with the Democrats. There are the 31 senators whose terms expires this year and whose seats must be filled pogt by the legislatures. Twenty-four of ^ these arc Republicans. Political exl c-^ti ports think it is possible that by ' the time the new Senate is ready ..j for organization after March 8 next N-ew there may be enough new Democrats gQUt and new "insurgents" in office 4o 0(<ra turn over completely the control of at t that body. jt w It is practically assured that a jJart Democrat will succeed the conserva- qj ( j tive Senator Hale, of Maine.

Those who tJlf> speak feelingly of the "old-fashion- . ' fd' ' winters and those who contend I I vou that the winters of today are just as g. severe as their forefathers endured ' or enjoyed, (which, is a matter of opinion) are always on the alert to secure data to fortify their argu- _____ ments. Here are some facts about glaciers that seem to support those who say that the winters are gradually getting milder. The glacier at Mount Sarmiento in South America, which descended to the sea when Darwin discovered it in 183 6 is now seperated from the shore by a vigorous growth of timber. In Greenland, the Jacobshaven glacier has retreated four miles in the last fifty years, and in recent years the East glacier in Spitzbergen has receded a mile. It is also said that in Scandinavia the snow line is further up the uioun- MM tians. and that the glaciers have with;n the centum withdrawn over 3,000 feet from the lowlands. The Arapahoe glacier in the Rocky mountains ? is also said to be diminishing. While ^ these facts may not he conclusive ; evidence of milder winters they are 4% certainly suggestive and the future V | action of the glaciers will be watch- | ed with increased intprest. bi They Expect Defeat. Writing from Columbus. Ohio, a staff correspondent of the New York H Evening Post says that for the November election Ohio Republicans fully expect defeat and are resigning themselves as well as they can. This Linir correspondent, who is. of course, reliably impartial, has been unable to ncss find any Republican who would profess more than very faint hopes of; mont some political miracle or other at [ he last minute.
