Election Returns From Our Neighbors.

Russell county went Republican by
good majorities except commissioner
of the End district.
The election went all one way in
Ellis county, the Russians taking
everything in sight.
Cove county went Republican
straight by good majoritieS.
The Republican ticket was elected
in Logan county except commissioner
and county clerk, which will take the
official count to decide, but the two
offices named are probable populist.
In Wallace county the entire Re-
publican ticket was elected by greatly
increased majoritieS.
Ness county was like Trego-car-
ried by the Populists. Republicans
probably elect sheriff. Republicans
gain about 100 over last year
Graham county Republicans elect
treasurer by 46 plurality; register of
deeds by 50. Populists elect every
thing else. The vote shows Republi-

Editor, l could see that it was pre-

sworn, John Reddig stood up with all
the dignity of an Egyptian magician

that l know nothing about it as l
had not attended a caucus or primary
this year.
But it was evidence of the nefari-
Gus scheme of both bipeds. Suppose
that some person would put w. L. Oh

ELECTION NEWS.


Last Tuesday there was an election
in Trego county, but from the returns
we have to admit that the Republi-
cans of Trego county-in the language
of some one-were showed under.
The Pop Demo combination was elect
ed by majorities ranging from 20 to
lis. W. B. Robinson received the
highest majority and was elected by
highest candidate. having received
IO6 majority. Lynn is next with SO
majority. Joseph Escher has 80 votes
to spare. Abe Frakes was next on
the list with Il majority of 80. ID. II.
Henkel. as was predicted by nearly
everybody. wagged the tail of the
Populist dog with majority Of %.
The day was Il very pleasant one and
both sides made a hard fight. The
Republicans, us soon as fifty votes
were counted in Wa-keeney town
ship, threw up the sponge, and when
the returns came in from Wilcox
where Ufford and Frakes had been
all day handling the horny-handed
sons of toll we gave it up as bad job
and acknowledged that the Pops had
our scalps dangling to their belts for
