THE ELECTIONS FORTY STATES BALLOTTED CONGRESSMEN, MOJSDAY 0E Democratic Gains in the East and Looses in the West-House Re publican by About Twenty- . ' '.' ' " Five.;"". New York, Nov 5. Elections were held yesterday - in 42 states, rand up to an early hour this morn ing the returns indicate that the control of the National Congiess remains with the Republican party, While official returns may r make trie working majority olthe Kepub- iiuan party in iuo nouse a uiose one, there is no doubt ' that it will be sufficient for all party purposes. From a National standpoint, -Nthe 1 l xl TT - 1 control of the lower branch of Con gress was the real conte&t. Many of the states elected Legislatures which will choose United States Senators, Tjut the result of these elections have in no way imperiled the Republican majority in the up per body. In tJnose states which elected Governors' there was no state in which the party in power was not continued in that position. In some of the states, however, there was a decided change from the vote cast two years ago. In the East the interest centered in the great states of New York and Penn sylvania; in the latter because of the conditions brought about by the recent coal strike, and in New York because of its bearing upon the Re publican candidate for - Governor, New York re-elected Governor B B Odell and the entire state ticket, although the falling off in the Re publican plurality, as compared 19liO, was enormous. At a late hour last night Od ell's plurality, was placed at about 10,000. The Democrats made a slight gain in the Legislature, but not enough to injure the election of a Republican successor to Sanator - Piatt. The Democrats also made gains in the Congressional elections,the unofficial figures placing the delegation at 20 Republicans and I7 Democrats. - ' In Pennsylvania- Samuel W Pennypacker, Rep., was elected Governor by a plurality of more than 150,000, and - the- Legislature is overwhelmingly Kepubhcan. The Democrats elected two, and possibly three of the Congressmen. The indications in JNew Hamp shire are that Nathen S Batcheldor Rep., candidate for Governor, was elected over Henry E Hollis Dem., by .a plurality of at least 10,000. There was a heavy shrinkage ; from the vote of two years ago. The Legislature is Republican in both branches by large majorities, insu-. ring a Republican successor to Senator Gallinger, who will prob ably succeed himself.- , In the West, known as Kansas, Idaho and Utah, were storm cen ters because of the fight for United, States senators," - while in - Ohio Idaho, Illinois and several other states, close Congressional districts attracted much interests In Illinois, while official figures are lacking, there is every indica tion that the Republican ticket has been elected by a good majority, and that the next Legislature . that will elect, a successor to United States Sanator Mason will be strict ly Republican. r - The Republicans in Connecticut elected their entire ticket by a plu rality estimated to be at least I5, 000, with the General . Assembly safely Republican. In Maryland the election was only for Congressmen, the Repub licans elected four of six members; Virginia 's election was confined to the election of Congressman," and returns show that the Democrats have elected nine of the-10, with one district doubtful. '' - - -'The Democrats majority in North Carolina is estimated to be about 63,000, with a solid democratic delegation in Congress and a Dem ocratic Legislature. lennesse rolled up a Democratic majority for Governor, and tha"eri- tire State was elected bv about 37, 000. x " In Michigan the .Rertubl elected Governor Blisr and the en tire state ticket and 11 of the 12 Congressmen. . The Legislature i3 strongly Republican', thus assur ing the election of ex-Secretary . of War Alger to r the Uuited States Senate, In New Jar3ey there was no c nging in the political situation Massachusetts went strongly Rep ublican, the entire state ticket - of that party being elected, the plu rality for the -; head of the ticket being 37, 479. : In Rhode Island have elected L. F. nor, but, with this Republican State the Democrats Carvin Gover- exception, the licnet will go through. . - In California' the returns indica te that the Governorship is in dou bt. The Legislature will be Repub lican. - - . The latest reports from Montana give the state to the. Republicans. However, the Democrats do not yet concede their defeat v In Kansas the Republican state ticket has been elected, with eight Congressmen. The Legislature -will be safely Republican. Returns - i . from Nevada point to a fusion vic tory; -Heavy Republican gains are con ceded throughout the state of Colo- jrado, although returns are so mea- gerjtnas ii is impoasiDie ia give re liable estimates of the result. Rsturns received from Iowa go to show that the Republicans have el ected their state tisket by 75,ooo majority .-V -. Baise, Idaho, Nov. 5. The elec tion yesterday proves to have been much more of a Republican land slide than- the reports last night indicated. The Republican state ticket has carried the ' state by a majority close to 600, Burton L French for Congress, ha3 a little larger majority, and .some of the candidates will fall a little less, but as a rule the ticket went through straight. The - Republicans have 18 of the 2I members of the Senate, and 35 of the 46 members of the House. This gives them a total of 35 on joiht ballot of 14for theDem ocrats. . - . ; This result disposes of all the Democratic candidates for Senator, and brings the Republican aspi rants into prominence. Theae are: WE Borah, of Boise; Judge D W Stranfdrod, of Poc atella; W B Hey burn, of Wallace, and ex-Senator George L fohoup. . San Francisco, Nov:- 5. Comp lete returns from San . Francisco ancTpartial returns from all over the state indicate that George C Pardee, the Republican nominee for Governor, is elected by a majority of 200 or 3o . The plurality of 9oo given by San Francisco to , F K Lane, the Democratic nominee has beeh almost wiped out by Republi can majority in the interior coun ties. The Republican vote . for Pardee in Southern California is justifying the estimates of the Re pnblican campaign committee, and has undoubtedly elected bim. Complete returns from n85 pre cincts out of 2277 in the state out side of San Francieco give Pardee 69, 46o, Lane 6o,637. The complete vote in San Francisco stood: Pardee 24,129, Lane 33,687, The Legisla ture, which will choose a United States Senator is largely,Jlepubli cad on joint ballot. The Republi cans have ' lost two members of Congress Kahn in the Fourth and Loud in the Fiftb. They, will be succeeded by Livernash and Wynn, Union Labor-Democrat candidates. - The First and Second districts are '6 fill undecided, with , a Demo cratic leaning. The delegation now 6tands: Republican, four; Union Labor-Democratic, two; doubtful, two. .. Disastrous Wrecks. A Typical South African Store. O. R. Larson, of Bay Villa, Sundays rviverr, iape colony, -.. conaucts a store typical of South Africa, at which can be purchased anything rom tne proverbial .'needle to an anchor." This store is situated in a valley nine miles from the near est railway station and about twenty-five miles from the nearest town. Mr. Larson says: "I am favored with the custom -of farmers within a radius of thirty miles to many of whom 1 nave supplied Chamber lain's remedies. "All testify to their -value in a household where a doc tor's advice is almost: out of the question; witnin one mile 01 my store the population is perhaps' six ty. Of these, within the past "i2 months, no less than fourteen have been absolutely cured by Chamber lain's Cough Remedy. This must surely be a record ," For sale by Graham & Wells. .

After his recov ery he left, and Miss Boyce did not hear of him again till today, when she received word from Se attle, Wash., of his death. . He had no near friends and relatives, and on account of the kindness shown him left Miss Boyce his entire for turtune of $1, 000,000.' : Vancouver, B. C, Nov. 3. Pe ter Ivor, of Wilmer, in East Koot enay, was lost in the mountains for nearly a week, and' when iouna was nearly insane. He was almost naked, was badly . frostbitten and had been without food for nearly five days.- 'He had to have four of the toes of the left foot amputated. The searching party found him quite close to a creek, under some logs, with his head resting on a rock. He was lifted onto a horse, but was so weak that he had to be held on all the way ,to Wilmer.

Superintendent of Public Instruction J H AckerT man has rendered the following de cision, which declares that the re sidence of the parent or guardian rather than the place where the pupil is enumerated, determines the place where a child is, entitled to attend school . without paying tuition. . . - "School boards shall "admit free of charge to the schools of their re spective districts all persons between the ages of 6 and 21 whose parehtsJ or guardians reside in such districts at the time of making application for free admittance to. such schools; even though such persons may have been at the last enumeration legally enumerated in some other district.,' This ruling will make a change in the practice in this state, for it has been generally fuld that if a child is enumerated in one district and school money, is drawn from him there he cannot attend else wherewithout paying tuition." Boston, Nov 4 In connection with the 15' murderous, assault cases which 'have 1 occurred in Cambridge Brookline and Somerville in the last few months, two of which have uesulted fatally, the police today arrested Alvan G Mason of Boston, a member.of the pianor. manufact uring firm of Mason & Hamlin, a prominent clubman and a graduate of Harvard. State Officers Proctor and Dunham went to the home of the Masons, in Newbury street aud searhed it thoroughly, Nothing was found which would indicate that Mason was connected with any of the mysterious assaults. Mr Mason is a middle-aged man but he has been the victim of .ment al trouble for which he wastreated at the McLean asylum at Waverly. About a year ago he was permitted to leave the institution. 1 Since that time, it is said, he has been permitted to go and come at will, and the fact shae he had been seen recently about the localities in which the assaults occurred led to suspicion againet him.: .The peculiar assault cases which haue terrorized : Cambridge and vicinity as well as other suburban ; sections, began last June. During , the summer, there was half & . dozen victims of unknown as saults, each of whom was struck with a blunt instrument. Early in October, Misa. Agnes McGhea was assaulted, in Someryille, and died from the effects. 1 During : tha : same month eight other cases fol lowed, the last of which occurred last Saturday, when Clara A" Moiv ris a laundress at the asylum, was assaulted on the grounds of tha McLean institution, and beaten with a . blunt instrument' Misa Morris died Sunday. Mr Mason made no objection to arrest." MONMOUTH NORMAL What They do There as Told by a Benton Student." ' " Oregon State Normal School. Monmouth, Or.
