seventh; Enloe, DEM, in the eighth; Pierce,
dem, in the ninth; Patterson dem, in the
tenth. The fight IN the third district for the
seat now held by II. Clay Evans, rep, is fierce,
with the chances favoring Snodgrass, dem.
Dyer county gives the democratic ticket 4
majority of 1.200. This county in 1888 rave
Cleveland . majority Of lSS. The Dortsch Law
poll tax registration has played havoc with the
negro vote.
Alabama.
There IL no surprise in the results Of the
election in Alabama. In the second district
Rev. 8. A. Pulley, independent, polled quite q
respectable vote against Hon. b. A. Herbert
dem, but it is not thought sufficient to endap.
ger his reelection. In the fourth district some
doubt was felt as to the reelection Of Louis W.
Turpin, but his plurality over the two repubh-
can candidates will be nearly 1000 votes.
Richard d. Clarke 10 reelected in the first
district over Warner and Threet, negro repub-
licans. In the third district VIM. Coates Is re-.
elected. The same is true Of James E. Cobb
in the fifth, Jno. II. Bankhead In the sixth, VIM.
h. Forney IN the seventh and Joseph Wheeler
in the eighth.
Mississippi.
The election passed off quietly throughout
the state Of Mississippi The indications are
that solid democratic delegation has been
elected
In Utah Caine, Mormon, is elected over God
win, liberal
Washington.
Meager returns from the entire state Of Wash
ington indicate the election of Wilson, repub-
lican, for Congress, beyond doubt, though
probably by reduced majority from that Of
1889.
A later dispatch from Portland says that scat
terlng returns from all counties show heavy
democratic gains.
Democratic victories all over the state are
reported from Florida. In the second district,
Gen. Bullock, dem., who lost his seat, will be
returned with an increased majority, while 8. R.
Mallory, DEM, will be sent from the first. In
the state legislature the democrats have q
larger working majority than ever. This
points TO the reelection Of Wilkinson Call as
his own successor.
Ex-Gov. W. D. Bloxham, dem, and Milton
H. MAVERICK DEM, are elected state controller
and justice Of the supreme court
Kansas.
The republicans in Kansas concede the fact
that the Farmers Alliance made heavy inroads
into the ranks and claim only $4,000 plurality
for their state ticket The democrats think
Wilt, Farmers Alliance, may be elected for
governor. Many democrats voted for Willis
and Farmers Alliance Congressman in return
for alliance votes for democratic Congressman
where no alliance candidates were in the field
The Farmers Alliance claim three Congress-
men and the democrats two. The reelection
of Funston, rep, and Kelly, rep, is conceded.
Dispatches indicate that for the frst time in
many years Kansas will send q broken republic
can delegation to Congress. 1t is considered
certain that Moonlight, dem. will defeat Brod-
erick, rep. and L. A. Clark, F.A., in the first
district. Webb McNall, rep. in the sixth dis
trict. is also doubtless elected. Jerry Simpson,
DEM, and James r. Hallowell, rep, are rum
ming close race in the seventh district. Rob-
inson, dem, for governor, is pretty generally
conceded to be out OF the race. The Farmers
Alliance claim Willis election by a small plu-
rality.- and the republicans say that
Humphrey is reelected by $1,000 plurality.
The Farmers Alliance and resubmission re-
publicans have elected many candidates to the
legislature. The former are bitterly opposed,
as rule, to senator Ingalls,, whose term ex-
pres in 1891, but the latter, while opposed to
the republican state administration, will vote
for Mr.. ingalls, reelection, 80 that the senior
Kansas Senator will doubtless retain his seat
The democratic representation in the legisla-
ture will be small.
