Steele will not run behind in the county,
but E. A. Williams will run ahead on ac-
count of many Old-time democrats voting
for him. The total vote of the county for
the legislative ticket will, | think, show
two to one republican. Winchester, the
Holland settlement and the upper river
region are believed to be strongly republi-
can, although, as this is our first fight under
party banners. it is "hard to tell

Redfeld-The campaign just closed has
been one of the most stubbOrnly fought
contests ever known in the history of the
territory. Over 5000 votes were poleu in
Sphinx county yesterday. Everything of
political nature was centered upon and in
f1uenced by the county seat question.
Party lines were almost obliterated, and
candidates were noted with regard to
their county seat sentiments. 1t was Red
field and the republican ticket against the
field. Redfield distanced the field, having
received about 100 majority over all
competitors, and the county records
will doubtless soon be moved
to Redfeld. The straight republican
county ticket is probably elected by about
the same majority. The regular republican
nominees for the legislature. E. W. Foster,
F. C. Mariner and W. N. Berry, have car
ried the district by two OF three hundred
majority over the mugWump and demo-
cratic tickets, although the vote in this
county is very close. AdviceS from Clark
county state that they have polled the full
republican strength Of that county. NJ. H.
Day, democratic candidate for delegate, has
received about six or seven hundred votes
in Sphinx county.
REDFIELD THE COUNTY SEAT.
Redfeld-Returns indicate the election
of Redtield as the county seat of Sphinx
county. About 1000 votes were polled and
the majority is about 100. 1t was the hot
test contest ever waged here. The citizens
are rejoicing to-day.
LINCOLN COUNTY.
Canton-Lncoln county gives 500 major
ity and Yankton $50 majority. The Advo-
Gates specials from various parts of the
territory indicate Gitfords election by
about 10000 majority. The legislative
ticket will be overwhelmingly republican,
although in one or two eases the farmers
candidates have pulled through. The
