Both of the Old Parties Cut by the
Farmers.
KANSAS Cry, Nov. 5.-Additional news
from Kansas received last night and to-
day does not warrant any change in the
prediction that the farmers alliance has Sc
cured victory in the state. The official
count will be necessary to decide whether
WIllsts its candidate for governor, or
Humphreys the republican candidate, has
been elected. The vote is very close, with
the indications in Wllets' favor, with most
of the western counties, where the farmers
are in the majority, to hear from.
The farmers alliance has cleo ed beyond
doubt W. A. Baker, its candidate for con-
gress, in the Fifth district, and contributed
to the election of Moonlight, dem, in the
First, whose election is conceded by some
thing over 1000 majority.
The farmers alliance seems reasonably
sure of electing at least one other congress
sional candidate.
OTHER DISTRICTS IN DOUBT.
Sampson, in the Seventh district, which
is composed of thirty-seven candidates,
mostly in the western part of the state, is
running Hallowell, rep, very close, and it
will take the official count to determine
who is successful.
A kThe Fifth district is also conceded to
be very close between Davis, the farmers
alliance candidate, and Phillips. the repub-
lican. Seven counties out of ten in that
district have reported. or these Davis has
carried four and Phillips three. The ma
jorities in all cases are very small and one
county may change the result.
The republicans have elected Funston in
the Second district
Returns received up to noon by the Asso-
ciated Press from the Fourth district show
that it is very doubtful. That district con-
tains twelve counties. Returns have been
received from five of these. Three have
been carried by Otis, the farmers alliance
man, and two for Kelley, rep.
THE THIRD DISTRICT.
The Third district is also IN doubt
Glover, ex-state president of the farmers
alliance, ran ahead of his ticket in the
counties heard from. Perkins. rep, who is
up for reelection, has very small majori-
ties IN four out of the seven counties heard
from Clover has carried three counties.
Late returns indicate almost positively
the election of Ives, the farmers alliance
candidate for attorney general, over KEEL
logg, rep.
The democratic and resubmission vote
was very heavy, but not as large as was an
Robinson. the democratic candidate for
governor, was scratched for Willets and the
farmers alliance voted for democrats on
county offices.
The farmers alliance will have strong
delegation in the state legislation. The re-
pablicans claim only twenty-four on joint
ballot. A majority of the districts are still
to be heard from, but Senator Ingalls, re-
election is not believed to be jeopardized.
Chairman Chase, of the farmers alliance
state central committee of Kansas, claims
the election Of Wiletts for governor beyond
doubt, and estimates hfs plurality at 25, 600.
