DEMOCRATS WIN CONTROjJF HOUSE History Repeats and Party in Power is Defeated After Tariff Revision New York. The people of the United States on Tueiday confided to the Democracy control oi the Nation al House of Representatives. Tbey also placed the Democrats and Pro gressive Republicans in command In the United States Senate. The vot ers in the 42 doubtful district! decid ed the election. There are 891 Con gress districts under the present con stitutional districts under the pres ent constitutional apportionment, and a very conservative estimate gives the Democrats a majority of 25. If complete returns verify this estimate the next House will be made up of. 208 Democrats and 183 Republicans, thus overturning the Republican ma jority of 43 in the present House. The Democrats will control the House for the first time since the 43d Congress. The passage by that Congress of the Wilson tariff law resulted In the restoration of the Re publicans to power. History Is Repeated. The Democratic success seems to exemplify the saying tnat a change In the political complexion of Congress Is sure to follow a revision of the tariff. The victory found Us Incep tion In the Aldrlch tariff law and the split which occurred In the Republi can party as a result of that law. The Increased cost of living made thousands of votes for the Democrats simply because thousands of people are convinced that Ha cause Is the tariff protection of the trusts, as adroitly perpetuated In the Aldrlch-1 Payne law by the "standpat" Repub licans.
