BISMARCK. N. D., Oct. 2.-Returns
from the state at large are coming in
slowly. In Burleigh county the Repub-
ican majority on the state ticket is 400
100 in excess of the largest estimate. The
Republican Legislative ticket, Little. Will
Jams and Rawling, are elected by ma jor-
ties ranging from 100 to $50. Winches-
ter Rep.) carries the district for judge.
but runs 1000 behind the state ticket.
In Morton county the Republican legis-
lative ticket is elected. InStark county,
where there was sharp fight, the Re-
publican legislative ticket is elected. In
the Kidder-Emmons district the same is
true. The thirteen Republican candi=
dates in the Bismarck land district are
elected. Prohibition is defeated in Bur-
leigh county by 400 majority, and in the
counties of the Missouri slope by 1900
majority.
The only lawyer candidate for state
senator-J. S. Frye, Rep, Of jamestown
seems to be defeated by his strong in.
dependent opponent-Bailey Fuller. The
reason for this defeat was too much rail-
road interference. La Moure county
elected the Republican candidates to the
legislature. There was some doubt
there. It looks as if the 10000 Republi-
can majority is sure.
SURPRISES HAVE BEEN GENIAL.
Myers, Dem, has been elected repre-
sentative in Nelson county. Newman,
Rep, is probably defeated for judge in
the Second district, and Templeton,
DEM, is elected Judge in the First dis
trict. In Grand Forks the vote was
light Hansbrough gets 1877 majority,
while Miller has less than 100 majority.
The vote on the constitution is heavier
than expected, and Grand Forks county
will probably defeat the document. In
Walsh county, the Republican candidate
for the senate, is probably defeated. The
prohibition vote is running very close and
a majority is claimed by both parties.
In Grand Forks county it will probably
be devoted. .Cass county. will give a

The Entire Republican Ticket Elected
Pierre Claims the Capital by Good
Majority.
YANKTON, S. D., Oct. 2.-The election
resulted in a Republican victory through
out the state of South Dakota on the
congressional, state, judicial and legisla-
tive tickets. The constitution is almost
unanimously adopted. Minority repre-
sentation is defeated. The prohibition
clause in the constitution is probably
adopted, out the margin is small. The
capital location lies between Sioux Falls
and Pierre.
SIOUX FALLS AND PIERRE RUN CLOSE.
Sioux FALLS, 8. D., Oct. 2.-Specials
to the Daily Press up to midnight give
give the following figures on temporary
capital. From 81 precincts out of 525,
not including the local vote of any can
didate: Sious Falls has 1924; Huron,
2,497; Pierre, 1884; Watertown, 1, 143;
Mitchell, 75c; Chamberlain, 800. The
total vote of Sioux Falls is about 1900, of
which 2,1O0 will be for herself, making
her total vote at this hour 1924,

ties of Deer Lodge and Silver Bow, IN
which the towns of Anaconda and Butte
ore situated, and which gave last year a
Republican majority of 1850, give a
Democratic majority this year. The
Democratic managers claim the entire
state ticket and a majority in the legisla-
ture.
The Journal Rep.) claims the state for
Carter, and says Power will not run 500
behind. 1t says the legislature cannot
he forecast, but is confident of a Repub-
ican majority, The Journal says the
country districts show large Republican
gains over Carriers majority of 5000 last
year and returns from Butte and Deer
Lodge cannot overcome the Republican
country districts.
The result cannot surely be known be-
fore morning.
AUSTRALIAN SYSTEM SATISFACTORY.
The election was conducted under the
Australian law, and to the surprise of
every one the votes were polled very rap
idly, nearly all voting being done by
noon. Reports from all sections of the
territory indicate that there was no dis
order of any kind in the cities. Scarcely
a man was seen under the influence of
liquor, and there were no attempts at il,
legal voting. The Australian balloting
system proved, so far as heard from, a
complete success.

by Chairman Seligman, of the Republi-

were not so. Power, Republican candi-
date for governor, ran behind his ticket
several hundred, while Toole ran ahead
of his. Maginnis, for congress, got the

all point to the election of Ferry and the

adopted by the Chicago, Milwaukee and

of this company, to and from Chicago,

sections in each car are draped to secure
privacy when desired. The entire train
is lighted by incandescent electric lights,
enabling the passengers to read the finest
print in any part of the car without diff

pected in 1887 or 1883, this being the fifth
year. Inasmuch as il did not occur there
is every reason to believe that il will not
be much longer deferred. During this win

number Of places in this State, and Ontario,
Canada, from whence men are continually
coming TO our city in search Of work.
