Bennett Majority.

~ AfH7tErNA 4ZHNasE
Our returns from Yankton county are not
as full as We would like to have them. and
We are unable 70 present to-day . complete
list of the vote in all the precincts and the
vote on each candidate. Our figures o n the
delegate show a majority Of 252 for Bennett,
with the 7th precinct to hear from, and that
will probably increase his majority. This
is a large falling off from the democratic
vote of two years ago, when Sphinx was
given ninety -four majority in this county.
The figures do not show q very flattering
home endorsement of Mr.. Trip, who falls
nearly four hun bred behind the vote OF
Sphinx, who has been placed upon the rec
ord as the weakest candidate any party in
Dakota ever put up. Here in Yankton
city Mr.. Trip received only twenty. four
majority, seventy-six less than spink's ma.
jority Of two years ago. The entire county
republican ticket IL elected with probably
Baker for sheriff as the leading man on the
list. We give the vote by precincts as far
as it has been obtained:
