S Sl a e kg FOR TAFT - GERTAIN Big MajoityinEle- foral Goligge, TWO STATES IN DOUBT Bryan May Secure Maryland and West Virginia, SEVERAL OTHERS SPLIT VOTE Favor Taft for President, but Elect DBemocratic Governors. New York, Nov. 5.—While the elec- tlon of William H. Taft as president by a large majority of the electoral vote is an absolute certainty, the re- sult is 80 close in Maryland and West Virginia as to center attention upon those states. The latest returns indi- cate that Bryan has carried West Vir- ginla and Maryland by small plurali- ties. Of the national figures in the fleld for governor Hughes was elected in New York state, Johnson in Minnesota and Harmon in Ohio. The returns showed also that Bryan had won over his own state of Nebras- ka. Although Taft carried Indiana, Ohio and probably Montana all three of those states appear to have elected Democratic governors, Judge Harmon apparently winning in Ohio and Thom- as R. Marshall in Indiana. On the other hand, while Bryan car- ried Missouri by a safe margin the election of Herbert S. Hadley, the Re- publican candidate for governor, is in- dicated. The uncertainty also extends to sev- eral of the legislatures, which will choose United States senators to fill vacancles caused by expiration of terms, of which there are thirty-one. Late advices indicate that Montana, up to now listed in the Bryan column, has given Taft a plurality. This would apparently give Taft 294 electoral votes, and with the possible addition of West Virginia seven more. How Electoral Vote Stands. The electoral vete by states is as follows: Taft. Bryan.

Bryan Carries Kentucky. Louisville, Ky., Nov. Bryan’s plurality in Kentucky of 13,000, nine and possibly ten Democratic congress- men elected—a Republican loss of two seats—this is the story of the election in Kentucky at the close of a day which was marked by the polling of the largest vote in the history of the state. The figures on the electoral vote indicate a_bare possibility that Taft will secure one of Kentucky’s ballots in the elactoral college. Oklahoma Démocratic. - Guthrie, Okla, Nov. 5.—Oklahoma has continued loyal to the Democratic party, but the majority has been re- duced materially,-and Bryan’s lead is estimated at. only 25,000. The five members of congress, four Democrats tnd one Republican, have been re- elected. The legislggure is two-thirds Deniocratie, insuring the re-election of United States Senator Thomas P. Gore, the blind senator. ‘ Muu;;huum Strong for Taft. Boston, Nov. 5.—Willlam H.
