FOR BRYAN.
The States That Have Been Carried by
the Democratic Nominees.
A
Nr. Bryan Carried His Home State by
a Handsome Plurality.

OMAHA, Neb., Nov. G.-Although the re-
turns from Nebraska are fragmentary and
may remain incomplete for two or three
days. enough is known TO warrant the con-
clusion that Nebraska has been carried for
Dir. Bryan and the fusion state ticket, by
najorities ranging from 500 TO G.090. The
vote for presidential electors on 10th the
republican and fusion tickets is consider
ably heavier than that given to candidates
for state offices and congressman. Holcomb
will run from S0J to l 500 lower than Bryan,
and The candidates on the fusion state tick
ct viii not quite reach he vote for HOlcomb.
This is also trte as regards the vote for Nc
Coll and the republican state ticket as COM
pared with the electors.
The republican strongholds. including
Douglas. Lancaster, Gage, Hawnee and "a
falling of, while the democratic and pOpu-
list counties have not only held their own,
but in many cases have exceeded their
strength of two years ago.
The OBJECTIONS in the republican congress
sional districts will defeat four out of the
six republican candidates for congress,
STROBE and Mercer being The only ones on
that ticket who can read their titles clear.
From the returns thus far received 1t IS
manifest that the fusionistS will control
both houses of the legislature. AS near as
can be ascertained the republicans Will
have eleven senators and forty-One mem
berS of the house, while the fusiOnistS Will
muster twenty-One senators and fTty-nIne
representatives. or nearly q tTO-thirdS ma
jority in each branch Of The legislature.
The McCook tribune. (McCook, Neb.) 1886-1936, 1896-11-13

ties for governor by counties:

zoe
Governor Morrill, ran 100 ahead of McKin-
lev in Grown Fulton. Republican eandidate
for state senator carried the county by 80.
In Clark county Harry Bone, Republican, Is
defeated for reelection by 7 majority.
WICHITA, Kan, Nov. 4.-Bryan has carried
Sedgwick county and Republicans concede
that Seedy rnd the entire fusion state ticket
have carried the county by 600 TO 600 The
fusionists Will probably elect three repre-
scntatiyes

plIuL
Electoral votes necessary to a choice-224.

CHICAGO, Nov. 5.-M ckinley and Ho-
bart are elected, but the majority is
likely so be a much narrower one than
has been looked for as the result OF the
earlier dispatches. The following
electoral votes are conceded to Mckin-
lev: Connecticut 6, Illinois "a, Iowa ID,
Maine 6, Maryland s, Massachusetts,
Is, Michigan 81, Minnesota 8, New
Hampshire 4, New Jersey 10, New
York sc, Ohio 90, Pennsylvania 30,
Rhode Island 4, Vermont 4, Wisconsin
l.. Total go.
The following votes are conceded to
Bryan: Alabama II, Arkansas 5, Col
orado 4, Florida 4, Georgia 13, Idaho 3,
Louisiana s, Mississippi 9, Missouri Il,
Montana 3, Nevada 8, South Carolina
9, Tennessee u, Texas Il, Utah 3, Vir-
ginia 12-total 1874.
Nothing but the most meyer and
scattering returns have been received
from California; electoral votes, Kan
sas 10, Wyoming 3 and Washington 4,
so that neither party can as yet claim
these states.
Nebraska with its 8 votes has been
conceded to Bryan. North Carolina
with its eleven votes is claimed by both
sides, but has probably gone for Bryan
and so with South Dakota and its four
votes.
The situation, therefore, may be re-
duced TO this: Certain for Mckinley,
220; almost certain for Mckinley, Is;
Indications for Mckinley, 25. Certain
for Bryan, 1874; probably for Bryan,
%: doubtful, pc. Total, 447.
The fight has not been given up by
the Democrats. As late as y o'clock
to-day Senator Jones said: The indi-
cations are that we have carried In
diana. If we have Mr.. Bryan is
elected. We have carried Tennessee,
Kentucky and my best advices from
Minnesota are hat Towne is elected
and the state is IN doubt. Ihave just
received n telegram from Mr.. Bryan in
which he says that he will carry his
state by 10000"
From returns thus far received the
next Senate probably will stand as
follows: Republicans; 42; Democrats,
81: Independent and Populist II,
doubtful ). Total 30.
On the currency question the Senate
undoubtedly viii have an anti-silver
majority. The doubtful states are Del
aware. Kansas, Kentucky, North Caro-
lima and South Dakota. The Repub-
licans would need - votes with the
Vice President TO control the Senate.
The Republican senators who bolted
the st. Louis ticket and platform are
classed as Independents. They are
Teller, Dubois, Mantle and Cannon.
Another Utah senator to be elected to
succeed Brown will undoubtedly be in
dependent.

P~HILADELpHIA. Nov. g. Estimates from
every county in the state give Mckinley an
apparent plurality OF 266, $50. There is
every reason TO believe that the ohicial re-
turns VIII show a plurality for Mckinley of
nearly $50. 600. The legislature is almost
entirely Republican, the Democratic repre-
sentatives not exceeding 10 per cent in a
membership In the lower house of 2o4.

ional districts in this city were carried by
the Republicans.
Including the two Congressmen-at-large,
Pennsylvania elected thirty Congressmeh.
ding to the latest returns, the delega-
DePwil be divided politically as follows:
