Swept in Office by Large Majorities Tues Republicans Win All State Offices With But One Exception MAKE SUBSTANTIAL GAINS IN EAST Tuesday’s election was a com plete sweep for the republicans in Oregon with one exception, the office of superintendent of public instruction, where the incumbent Rex Putnam was victorious by al most 40,000 votes. Charles Sprague, Salem publisher was leading his opponent Henry Hess for governor by 60,000 votes with returns complete from 1525 of the state’s 1681 precincts. A look at the national picture gives encouragement to the re publican organization also. The G. O. P. won nineteen state gov ernors in Tuesday’s election and eight seats in the U. S. Senate and seventy seven or more seats in the national house of repre sentatives. It now appears Roosevelt has lost control of con gress except on party matters. The republicans scored a net gain of twelve governors. The state vote: U. S. Senator (Short Term) Barry—162,215 Miller—134,243 U. 8.
