tied in the courts.

Coombs, chairman of the Republican
state campaign committee, at noon die
tated the following statement: Under
any fair election law Mckinley and
Yerkes would have carried the state
by 5000 or 10000 majority. The Repub-
lican vote has been Whitfield down in
many places by petty larceny and In a
number of places by highway robbery.
Nothing but the official count will set
tie the election and If the count Is
made under the Goebel law, the Repub-
licans have no reasonable grounds to-
expect fair treatment"
The Evening Times claims the cleo
ton of Beckham, Democrat, for COVER
nor by 3,4S6, basing the 18th district on
the Republican claim of 19,205 majority
there for Yerkes. The returns to date
show Beckham's majority without the
18th district to be 22,691. At the Dem
ocratic headquarters 1t was said that

probably be in tonight.
