Appearances indicate that Colonel
Wilbur +. steele has been defeated in
the twenty third Legislative district by
a party by the name of Greene. The
twenty third district spreads all over the
northwest part OF the territory, consist
ing of twenty;seven counties, of which
Burleigh, Morton and Kidder are the
chief counties. In their convention the
republicans took all their legislative
candidates from the east side of the
river. whereas Morton county, on the
west side, is populous and important.
| Morton county retaliates by cutting
Steele's vote down to almost nothing,
under the impression that he was the
author of the west side misfortunes and
the instigator of the Morton county
snub. 1t further appears that Alexander
Hughes, who was running for the coun-
oil in that district. was largely forgotten
by the republicans Oh election day,
though he may pull through from sheer
force of the luck which for time is
dancing attendance upon the Benedict
Arnold of Dakota. E. A. Williams is
the only legislative candidate on the
twenty-third district republican ticket
who enjoyed boom on election day.
This was to have been expected, as Will
liams is O square man always.

A Walsh county telegram SAYS the

A Walsh county telegram says the
democratic committee distributed Doodle
and bogus tickets in tho northeast por-
ton of the territory without stint.
These are two elements of political suo-
cess which the democracy knows how to
use to the best advantage. In establish
ing the precedent of cash prices for
votes the democracy is building the
foundations OF political aristooracy
here in Dakota which is liable to grow
beyond control OF the public. 1t creates
the beginning of an era the climax of
which will be that none but the
wealthy can successfully aspire
to political honors. In entering this
field the democracy of Dakota olIngs to
its party traditions. In the states its
power has been the power of the rich
over the poor and this condition ia NOV
ing westward and has invaded Dakota.
Doodle has reyolutionized the vote OF
the few northeast counties of Dakota
where it was lavishly scattered over the
land. The democratic committee saga
ciously placed it where it would do the
most good Ordway Johnson's expert
ence in this department Of politics has
proved tower OF strength to the democ-
racy of Dakota.

Is looks as though Mr.. Gates, of

for the legislative council in the fifth

Lawler, 1913 majority, !. majority in
each of the three counties, while Mr.,
Gates two associates on the republican
ticket were elected by large naiorities

far behind his ticket on election day

Alexander Mckenzie is to retire, with
the close of the present year, from the
position of sheriff OF Bnrleigh county, a
position he has filled with credit during
the past twelve years. Mr.. Mckenzie
began his political career, in the midst
of semi-barbarous surroundings, when
he was young and blooming innocent
and now graduates upon the top round
of northern Dakota political fame.
From the dizzy height of q retired Office
holder of renown he looks down upon
the other boys still groveling in the
depths of official serfdom-his compeers
of less halcyon days--and oomplacently
ruminates upon the career of Grover
Cleveland from the county Jail to the
national white house. This happened
to Cleveland and Cleveland is not as
smart a politician as Aleck Mex enzie
though he has thus far had better luck
Mckenzie takes with him into retire.

President Cleveland is said to be
much cast down over the numerous
democratic defeats in the states. He
looks upon the result witha faint sus-
picion that it may mean rebuke to his
administration. This is evident enough to
the balance of the world, but the presi-
dent is not quick of comprehension, Ths
election of 1888 will doubtless give him
a realizing sense OF the unpopuierity OF
democratic management

The Press and Dakotaian figures upon
the result of the late congressional
election are taken from the announce.
ments made in various newspapers of
the territory and from the telegraphio
information sent to outside metropoli-
tan papers from the several counties of
Dakota. They are carefully corrected
as revised figures are received. They
may not be correct, but they are the
best We can offer for the present. It
has always been our rule to
compile territorial election returns in
this manner and we have always kept
very near the actual result. Our figures
from forty-five counties give Mr.. Clifford
21,oO0 majority and Mr.. Day $50 major
ity. net majority of over 10000 for
Mr.. Clifford in little over one. half the
counties of Dakota. Most OF the heavily
populated counties are represented in
this LIST, though there are. still few
| heavy districts to hear from.
The list includes sixteen north.
ern counties and in that sec
ton OF Dakota the result is
surprising. These sixteen counties.
in 1884, gave Mr.. Clifford a net majority
of nearly 10000. Our returns from tht
same counties slow net majority O
about 4,5o0 for Mr.. Clifford. In 1884 th,
TERRITORY gave to Mr.. Clifford majority
OF 56,455. OF which the north returned
27,16o and the south 29,295. The larg,

detection in the south, would MATERIAL,
