Pennsylvania’s immense plurality of over 500,000 four years ago, has been cut in two. Illinois, which gave Roosevelt 306,. 000 In 1904, has gone for Taft by about 170,000. The highest claim of the republicans for Indiana Is 15,000, as against a lurality of 93,000 for Roosevelt. Iowa, which gave Mr. Roosevelt IfiS.OOOO plurality in 190i, has drop ped down to about 40,000 for Taft. The return of Missouri to the demo- eratic column on the presidential Hoket, wiped out a republican plural ity of of 25,000 four years ago. (Maryland and West Virginia are oon. fldently claimed by the republicans, bnt the returns are too meager to Justify a classification of either state. 'Massachusetts, (New York and New Jersey were striking exceptions to the generally reduced republican plu rail ties. * There has been a shrinkage in the democratic vote in several of the ■outhern states, notably in Virginia aad North Carolina.

The republican plurality fell off heavily in th® middle west, a matter thoroughly surprising to republicans. Speaker Cannon has been re-elected bv his usual majority. 000. Governor John A.

The voting throughout the country been exceptionally heavy, ideal weather conditions bringing out the country voters in full force. Mr. Taf! carried practically every sooalled doubtful state, except Ne braska, where the indications point to a democratic victory. Mr. Bryan has carried Nevada and Montana in addition to the solid south, which includes Missouri. Returns from Colorado and Mary land are too meager to form a def inite conclusion as to their ultimate alignment. DEMOCRATIC PARTY 18 DCAiD, SO “DRY” CANDIDATE RAYS Chicago, Nov. 4—Eugene W.

Tho heavy pluralities indicat ed there for Mr. Taft seemed at once to dissipate any probability of a land slide. for Mr. Bryan, a> many demo, crats had claimed, and the republican managers at once began to put out claims of victory. Returns from the up-country dis tricts of New York state, where voi ing machines are largely used, were; been received. On this showing the Chairman McKinley Says There’ll B© a Working Majority.. • Early Wednesday morning return* received from 31(5 congressional dis tricts, out tof 391 in the country. Of these republicans had 179, the demo crats 129, 9 were (doubtful, and from 64 districts no accurate returns had next to arrive. It had been predicted for .levs that Erie county, including the heavy vote of Buffalo, might 1 taken as an ;ndt\ to the drift through out the country. This has prove ! the ense. so far as the national ticket was concerned, Mr. Taft having a plurality cf something mor- than four thousand votes. Erie county, sur prisingly, however, gave Chanler, a plurality of more than 3,900. The opponents of Governor Hughes were quick to claim a sweeping vic tory, but returns from the other large counties and cities soon changed the complexion of the returns completely. The vote in Greater New York for Mr. Chanler was deeply disappointing to his friends, while the heavy vote foi Mr. Taft, especially in the borough of Brooklyn, completely eclipsed the mo. t sanguine hopes of the republia aus. Governor Hughes was cut heav ily up fh# state, but not so deeply a* republicans party at this hour lack 17 votes of being able to control th* house. Speaker Cannon has been re elected. At 1 o’clock Wednesday morning, Chairman McKinley, of the republican congressional commtitee, gave out the following statement; “From reports received up to mid night it would appear that 230 repub licans and 161 democratic members of the house,have been chosen, giving the republicans a majority of 69 in the sixty-first congress. Later returns may change this estimate somewhat, as there sgre several close countests In which we expect to make republican gains.’’ Returns u pto date show the elec tion of sixty-four democrats to oon- gross and 78 republicans. Republicans gain a district in the state of Penn sylvena heretofore held by democrats. • Buy Intelligently Where do you buy your Drugs? We want your business aud will do what we can to please you.
