Governor Hanly calls a special session as six districts trigger elections. Democratic candidates win in two districts with no Republican opposition, Samuel Genz, Democrat, defeats Samuel H.

Delaware County shows reduced Republican plurality from 1904 and 1906 levels, signaling broad Democratic drift.
