NORTH DAKOTA
Bismarck, N. D., Nov. 4.-Democratic
National Committeeman Baker comedies
North Dakota to Mckinley and admits
that the republicans have elected the en-
tire state ticket, including congressman.
Enough returns are in to justify the
claims of the republicans that North Da-
kota has given Mckinley 5000 majority
and that Johnson (rep.) has been elected
to congress. The entire republican state
ticket is elected. Advices from the north
ern portion of the state show heavy re-
publican gains in democratic strOngholds.
Silver men claim that large numbers of
voters were kept at home by the inclem-
ency of the weather and bad roads in the
country precincts where they expected a
strong support. It is now safe to place
the legislature in the republican column on

Fargo, N. D., Nov. Collection day in
North Dakota was a stormy one with
snow ranging from three inches to three
feet in depth. The vote in the cities and
villages was unusually large, while the
county vote indicates that not over so
per cent could reach the polls on account
of the snow and mud. The returns as far
as received are nearly all from towns and
villages conceded by the republicans to
be 60 per cent republican.
Grand Forks, N. D., Nov. 3.-Returns
from the country are coming in very slow
ly, owing to the poor telegraph connec-
tons, caused by the storm which ragged
here all day In the city the Mckinley
electors had a majority of 229 votes. A
few small precincts heard from went the
same way. 1t is probable that the county
has gone to Mckinley by 400. The state
ticket has been cut badly and the vote for
governor and congressman shows B1ggs
(rep.), 653; Richardson. (dem.), It's; Johnson
<rep.), $50; Burke (dem), 6s7. Templeton
for Supreme judge and Albert for treas
urer on fusion ticket are running away
ahead of the ticket in the precincts al
ready in, and will carry the city by big
majority. Fisk Gusion), over Sorlie (rep.),
candidates for district judge, came out OF
the city fight with 80. majority, and md, is
surely elected. The entire state fusion
ticket is believed to be elected ind repub-
lican committee here made that estimate
tonight. The fusion county ticket Is elect
ed except perhaps a few candidates. Inc
vote on the constitutional convention Is at
the end Of the ballot and tomorrow viii
be as early as an estimate can be made
on it. w. A. Gordon is elected senator
in the seventh district over F. J. Williams
(fusion) and Arne Haugen Qnd.), by a
small majority.
MINNESOTA
St. Paul. Nov. s-This was a quiet cleo
ton. day and one of the most exciting
ever known in Minnesota, the interest
being deep and silent. Voters were early
and the fullest vote ever, known was
polled. The majority of the votes in the
cities were polled before 10 o'clock in the
morning and by noon three-fourths of the
vote was in.
In the country the vote was slower on
account Of the heavy roads, but 1t was
polled early for all that and was un-
usually heavy. When the returns began
to come there was further evidence of
interest, for the Judges in some OF the
country precincts, seeing that the regis
tration was all polled, Immediately
counted the ballots and the result was
known In seven precincts before the polls
were officially closed.
In these precincts the indications were
strongly towards Mckinley, and although
later returns cut down the proportion OF
gains slightly large gains were still evil
dent and early in the night 1t became
clear that the state had gone for Mckln-
ley, and that while Clough, the repuolG Ian
candidate for governor, was running pc
hind Mckinley, he would not be so lar
behind as to fail to win.
