Chicago, Nov. 9-Returns from every
county in the state indicate the election
of Whittemore Republican,, for state
treasurer by plurality of nearly 80
900. The majority for other Republican
candidates will probably exceed that for
Whittemore. Enough legislative re-
turns have been received to show that
the lower house will be Democratic by
about six votes and the senate Repub-
lfcan by about 11.votes. In Cook coun-
ty aside from congressman, the entire
Republican ticket, with possibly one
or two exceptions, was elected by plu-
ralities ranging from 5000 to 5000 The
county was carried for Mckinley by
nearly 10000. In Winnebago county
Frank S. Regan, Prohibitionist, was
elected to the legislature the first time
in the history of the state that a Pro-
hibitionist legislative candidate has
won. The congressional delegation
stands II Republicans and II Demo-
