Slowly Coming In ami Result on Judge Il
Uncertain.
OMAHA. Nov. S.-The returns from
the state are slow in coming in. The re-
turns from cities and towns indicate in
some sections Republican gains, but at
the same time it is shown that Holcomb.
the POpullst nominee, has made heavy
gains at tine expense of the Democratic
nominee. While at this writing it APP
pears that Harrison has received u sur
prisely large vote III many sections, this
gain will probably be offset by the gain of
Democratic votes by Holcomb. It would
seem that Holcomb has demonstrated
sufficient strength in the cities and
towns to warrant the belief that the re-
turns from the country precincts may
increase Holcomb's vote sufficient to
elect him.
Fifty-five precincts, all over the state,
show Republican gains over last year of
262; Independent gains of and Demo-
cratic losses of ,5@6.
Chairman Slaughter of the Republi-
can state central COMMITTEES claims that
Harrison was elected by small l.lural-
ity. Chairman Beaver of the Populist
state committee expressed confidence
that Holcomb had been chosen supreme
judge by at least 5000 plurality.
Mayor Belnis (Rsp.) was reelected
mayor of Omaha by 1900 plurality.
The balance of the city ticket is in
doubt.

thousand. Almost without exception
the returns from every part of the state

WHAT CONGRESS DID

Resume Of the Work Done In the Extra
ordinary Session OF Congress.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 4.-This session Of
the senate will be long memorable for
the contest over the bill providing for
the repeal of the silver purchasing
clause Of the Sherman act Of 1890. The
extraordinary session was called for the
purpose Of accomplishing this repeal,
and the other work was merely Ia
Cidental.
The bill of next greatest importance
TO the repeal bill, which has passed
both houses OF congress, is the bid oE-
tending tho time in which Chinese la.
borers can register under the Chinese
act, known as the Geary law.
OF the /, l59 bills which have been In
troduced during the session. only
three have become laws. One is in aid
of the midwinter exposition to be held in
San Francisco, another grants certain
settlers in Oklahoma Territory the right
TO commute their homestead entries and
the third relates to clerks in the Office Of
the commissioners in the District of
Columbia.
Probably the most important bill upon
the senate calendar is that of the repeal
of the federal election laws. A similar
bill has passed the house. Senator Voor-
hees has bill concerning national bank
note circulation. Mr.. Morgan's resclu-
ton for a joint committee Of the two
houses to consider questions of finance
has place on the calendar, as has Mr..
Stewards resolution concerning. the CO.

REPUBLICAN GAINS IN KANSAS.
The Australian Ballot System Was Used
For the First Time.

The Australian Ballot System Was Used
For the First Time.
TOPEKA, Nov. 1.-THE Australian
ballot system was used Tuesday for the
first time, and though there was some
friction in localities where the law was
not fully understood, on the whole the
whole the election passed off smoothly.
The vote this year for various reasons
is not nearly so large as in 1892, when
324, 1856 were polled.
In the first place it is an ''of year. "
Then it is estimated that fully 20 per
cent of the voters in the western part of
the state have elnigrated on account of
the failure of crops and besides there
was considerable exodus from all Sec
tions to the Cherokee Strip. Finally
many voters, through ignorance, or
tinidity, would not venture into the
booths under the new law. The vote is
compared with that of two years ago
when the same county officers were
elected. The vote of that year was as
follows: Republican, 1854; Populist,
ia, 475; Democrat, 20, 815; total, 275, 3t4.
The Republicans won PIT of the county
offices voted for, the Populists 1877 and
the Democrats 30.
Republicans will probably have a
plurality of all the votes cast in Kansas.
They have carried Miami, Harvey and
Montgomery counties. The Democrats
carried Leavenworth county. In Wy
andotte county, the most populous
county in the state. the entire Republican
ticket, with the exception of surveyor
and register of deeds, is elected. Not
more than half the registered vote was
polled. On account of a split in the
party few Democrats voted.
Franklin, Butler, Brown, Usage and
Gray counties, were all carried by
Republicans. Reno and Sadgwick
counties have gone Republican. Sedg-
wick, of which Wichita is the county
seat. was carried by Populists last year.
Cherokee county, which gave 100
majority for the Populists in 1892, AMI
Sumner county. another Populist strong
hold, have been carried by the Republi-
cans. Cowley county, in which the vote
was very close in 1892, also gone Repub-
ican.
Emporia-This city gives an average
Republican majority of 800 on a light
vote This is a Republican gain as COM
pared with the vote of last year.
Wichita The entire Republican
ticket is elected in Sedgwick county by
majorities ranging from 900 to 1000.
It was opposed by fusion of Democrats
and Populists. The immense Repub-
Iican gain were unlocked for.
Lawrence-E tire r publicln ticket
is elected in Douglas county by major
tiles ranging from 200 to 1000.

An associated press dispatch from
Columbus, o., says:
COLUMBUS, Nov. e.-Wi.h plurality
of 10000 and two-thirds of both
branches of the legislature, Mckinley
has won the most decisive victory re-
corded in Ohio since the civil war. Il
has been won on national issues. AL
though Mckinley was running for re-
election as governor, he made state
affairs secondary to protection and
honest money in all his speeches, num-
bering 40.
It would not have been a surprise two
weeks ago, but after the action of con-
gress, there seemed to have been such a
reaction that the overwhelming vote is
a surprise. The Democrats did not
allow the contest to go by default, but
made a vigorous fight with its working
forces. Ex-Governor Campbell can.
vassed the state for Lawrence T. Neal
all last week and the Democratic COM
mittee was hopeful after congress
reached decisive action.
Result Was No Surprise to Mckinley.
He has expected it all along and felt
confident that the impressions of the
changes of conditions would not be over
come by the campaign efforts for re-
action. The weather was pleasant ali
over the state and there was full vote
of over 800, 900 and Mckinley has ma :
jority over all, with Democrats, Prohi-
bitionist and Populist tickets opposed to
him. This is the first majority over all
any state candidate has had since Fos-
ter's election just after GarieId's dearh
in 1881. The Republicans are apprehen-
sive of one part of their victory. The
legislature elected does moi select a
United States senator and it is over two
thirds Republican, the strongest since
the war. With such a large working
majority they fear such legislation by
city members as may lead to defeat two
years hence, when another legislature is
to be selected that Will chCo5e Senator
Brice's successor. s.
Took Governor Mckinley by Storm.
When the result became KIN WIN the
overflow from the Republican hea iquar-
tors rushed into the state house and took
Governor Mckinley by storm. He was
surrounded by Congressman Boutelle,
R. G. Howard, r. G. Horr, state officials
in expectation OF a memorable occasion.
Mckinley would not talk on the result.
Republicans elected county tickets in
many localities where they have never
had local offices.
franklin county, the home OF Thur
man, in which Columbus Is stu ted,
has never been carried by the Repub-
hcans. The latter claim its plurality of
1910 has been reversed for Mckinley.
Chairman Seward, Of the Democratic
state central committee, when seen, said
he had no statement to make, but adj
mitted that if the present ratio OF Demo-
cratic losses contiune tue complete re-
turns would SLOW Il plurality OF 10000
for Mckinley. Chairman Seward and
Colonel w. A. Taylor, Democratic can
didate for lieutenant governor, laugh-
ingIy. seconded Meals motion to make it
unanimous.

For the first time in four years the state
will have a Republican governor a nd
his plurality is $4,000 at least. The
whole ticket is elected with him and the
legislature is solidly Republican in both
branches. Candid Democrats had con-
deded the defeat of John E. Russell,
their candidate for governor, by small
majority, while even the most sanguine
Republicans would not claim ever To-

result is attributed by those Democrats
