from every county in this state as canvassed
by the secretary of state give Boyd, dem,
plurality of IA. The balance Of the re-
publican state ticket is elected by pluraIi-
ties ranging from 1000 TO 5000. The indie
pendents control both branches Of the

CALIFORNIA; CONGRESSMAN.
SAN FRANCISCO, CAL. Nov. 1S.-The
last OF the official returns of the First con-
gresSlonal district were received here last
night. The official canvass gives Geary,
DEM, 1928, Barham, rep, 1925; Geary's
plurality 53.
The official canvass Of the Second con-
gressional district has been completed with
the exception of Mercer county. Cami-
nettl, DEM, has plurality of 81. Unoffi-
cial returns from Mercer county indicate
plurality of over 100 for Caminetti, and it
1t is not believed that the official canvass
will alter the result materially. The Cali
tornia delegation in the next congress will
stand: Republicans 4, democrats 2, the
same as in the present congress.
ILLINOIS LEGISLATURE.
CHICAGO. Nov. 1S-The count of the
Second senatorial district was completed
yesterday, and shows the election OF
Kenny, den., to the legislature, instead of
Hoppin, rep, hitherto supposed to be the
victor. This Increases the chances of the
democrats in electing United States sena-
tor, but does not alter the fact that the
balance of power between the two great
parties is in the hands of three members of
the farmers alliance.
