GovERNORsHIP CONTEST.

CARSON, New, February 1S.-The su-
preme Court to-day handed down . decis.
ion In the Gubernatorial contest. William
Mcmillan, in bis contest, alleged the irreg-
ulsrisy OF ballots. The decision practically
decides In Governor ssdler's favor. The
results Of the decision will defeat the con-
siderstion OF about one-ifth Of the entire
allegations In the REALTORS complaint,
leaving the other four-ffths TO be tried on
their merits. The validity Of something
over 100 votes which the relator alleges
should accrue to his benefit are permitted
by the decision to be regularly tested and
determined. The opinion Of the Court is
that soldiers votes should not be counted.
This deprives Mcmillan Of IS votes to
which 10 is alleged be was entitled. The
REALTORS attorneys are given five days to
amend the complaint and the respondent
is allowed twenty days in which to answer.
