THE GENERAL RESULT
Unaffected By the Election
 Returns Yesterday
Fowler, Barnett and Edwards Have Too Long Leads to Be Affected By the Vote of the Two Democratic Precin cts Still Out.

| No returns were received from county precincts yesterday which materially affected the result of Tuesdays cleo tion announced by The Republican the | following morning. Only Verde and Mcdowell were heard from. The for mer had only twelve votes, which were all cast for the democratic head of the ticket. Some of the republican, candi- dates received one vote in that pre- cinct and one of them received two. Thirty-seven votes were cast at Me DOWell. The returns Were informal and s'alated only to the territorial and legislative tickets. The average demo- cratic majority is twenty. Agua Cal iente and New River remain to be ! heard from. It is expected that tine | former will give a democratic major lity of twelve and the latter Of seven. It is impossible though. to wipe out the majorities of the republican can Gidates, Fowler, Barnett and Edwards. The first, in fact, leads Gonzalez by about 300 and leads every other demo- cratic candidate for assemblylnan eX- cept Parker. Edwards majority will net be less than seventy and that of Barnett will fall little shonJ of 100. Smiths majority in the county, it is be- lieVed. will be about twenty-five.
 The only complete returns received from any county in nhe territory were those of Apache county contained in tn following dispatch to The Republi- can from Hclb1ook last night:
 "Holbrook, Ariz., Nov. s.
 Apache county gives Murphy ninety seven majority. Members of the coun- oil sI, .,I- all tl,. republican ticket but treasurer and rl- coiGi,r"
 This is a larger majority for Gov eIn3r Murphy than the committee had figured on and twice as large as the most literal democrat had been willing to conced@.
 Later reports received from various parts of the territory in private teIe- grams, and not based on any actual count show an increased majority for Smith. The democratic committee upon these reports is preparing to claim for Smith a majority ranging from 1000 to 1,4OO.
 From all that is actually known at this date there will be only two repub- hcans in the oounCif--Warner rf Co., chise, an.t Perkins Of Apache The re- ICsfllC 'tll hltIbDSISIllp III jEG nGuS- IS llJJ likely to be more correspondirgly over " l6lmiEs-F'owler Of Maricopa, Wood of Cochise, and Gibbons of Apache are knows to be elected. It is thought that Campbell of Yavapai, and Colbett of Pima may win out
 An Out-of-the-county contest of in tteIeSt here was the fight between Munds and Ruffner for sheriff of Yav- apai county. The result was i'm doubt at Presccut on Wednesday with Munds very slightly in the lead and twelve precincts to be heard from. A tele- phone message was received yesterday morning that Munds' majority had risen to forty and he was still gaining Lasl1 night it had grown to 1T0, and there was said to be no douLe of his q Ction.
 A curious state of uncertainty eX- isted in Pima county on Wednesday night Of the four candidates for su- peIvisors. Bernard, democrat, and Vail and RCbeil, republicans, were SD close t0oether that t1cy could be covered with d ban ket- Bernard was in the lead and did not know which of his republican opponents he was going to beat. On further consideration he was not sure that both of them would not beat him.
