THE ELECTIONS.

Three of the New States Are Republican
Prohibition showed Under in North Da-
kOta.
HELENA, Mont, Oct. 3.-Returns are
coming in very slow and the figures are
so close that the majorities will not be
much either way. The Democrats claim
the State by 800 to 500 and the Republic
ans by eco to 1,000. The Democrats con-
cede Carter's election to Congress.
Toole, Democrat, is 800 ahead Of Powers
for Governor, with three counties, claimed
BY both parties, still to hear from. The
Democrats have the Legislature by a
small majority. The Republicans elect
majority of the minor State officers. The
Independents claim the election of Toole

Joint ballot in the Legislature for the
Democrats.

BOTH DAKoTA's REPUBLICAN,.
ST. PAUL, Mimi, Oct 3.-In the Dakota
elections it is evident that both the North
and South States have given a decisive
majority for the Republican ticket
1t seems that while North Dakota last
November gave 5000 majority for the Re-
publican candidate for Delegate to Con-
gress, the new State will not be able to
give greater ma jority for the same party
this year.
For Governor, John Miller, the Repub-
Iican candidate, received s, 600 more votes
than W. N. Rosch, the Democratic nomi-
nee. All returns yet received indicate
that the vote for Congressman drew out
at least g, 900 votes, making the maj 'rity
for H c. Hansbrough for Congress I. 900
or more. Twenty Republican, five Demo-
cratic and one Independent Senator and
forty-two Republican and ten Democratic
Representatives are elected, as shown by
returns from twenty-six counties out of
thirty-one.
The new judges are: First district, c.
F. Templeton, (Dem.); Second, D. E Nor
