LEGISLATURE.

With the full returns from this
legislative district, some Of them
unofficial, it appears that Edward
c. Hogan, Republican, is elected in
this strong democratic district-oi
about 200 majority-by the narrow
margin OF less than twenty five
A telephone message from Audi!
tor Gruber at noon gives the Off
cial majority for Mr.. Hogan at
twenty-five, a trifling variation
from the table compiled earlier by
the HERALD.
1t was clean-cut fight, free from
offensive personalities, vigorously
prosecuted by both sides, and
serves to attest Mr.. Hogan's per-
sonal popularity in the strong
democratic towns of Spring Hill,
Lake Henry and Lake George,
where his personal acquaintance is
large, as also IN the republican
town of Paynesville, where he is
in business.
} Mr.. Hogan will not disappoint his
constituents. He is the only re-
publican representative elected in
the connty-in fact the only repub-
lican officer of any sort.

Imperialism and militarism were
not accepted seriously by the peo-
pie as real issues in this campaign.
However, the policy of territorial
expansion was approved at the
polls, and the people are willing to
leave the matter of detail ADJUST
ment to a republican president and
republican congress. This is
clearly shown by the increased
electoral vote given to Mr.. Mckin-
ley and the increased republican
majority in Congress.
So, too. with the question OF
trusts-the people are content to
turn them over to the Republican
party, confident that they will be
so dealt with that the best inter-
ests of the body polite and the,

be protected and conserved.
Satisfied that prosperity is due to
the republican policies of adequate
protection and sound money, the
voters concluded that it would be

The magnificent administration
of the past four years has been
magnificently endorsed.

sTEARNs COUNTY.

The democratic banner no longer
floats over Stearns county. 1t used
to have the distinction of being
reliably democratic by from 5000
to 1000 majority. It will do well
if hereafter it can poll 1900 more
democratic than republican votes.
For governor, John Lind has
about 1900 majority, and it is GER
tain that he received a number of
republican votes.
Page Morris holds his place in
the confidence of the electors of
Stearns county. Mr.. Truelsen has
but 1855 majority, whereas the
republicans conceded him from
1900 to- 1850. The republicans
are thoroughly satisfied with his
vote in the county.
The following are the estimated
majorities for county officers up to
noon to-day, as transmitted by tele-
phone from the Journal-Press of St.
Cloud:
Sheriff, Fred Schilplin has between
700 and 500 majority; for Judge of
probate, d. L. Calhoun has ma
jority of 272; for county attorney,
w. f. Donohue has about 1000
majority, and Chas Weber is re-
elected school superintendent.
1t will be seen that the height of
democratic plurality on county Of
fees is barely 1000 showing a
remarkable decadence in the party.

MIGRATING, but as the day advanced
the sun warmed the atmosphere to a
pleasant temperature. There was alb
solutely no excitement either at the
polls or on the streets, and very little
open soliciting of votes was observed.
1t was as quiet as an average day,
even quieter, and one not aware of the
fact would not have supposed that one
of the most important elections in the
life of the nation was in progress.
The vote was lighter than was expect
ed--ten less than two years ago, and
more than fifty below high watermark.
The judges of election had no UNI
pleasant official duties to perform and
very few votes that were offered were
excluded. The bulk of the vote was
in early. D. B. Searle for district
judge: P. J. Gruber for auditor, Chris
Schnitt for treasurer; John M. Emmel
for register o. deeds; John D. Morgan
for surveyor and III. A. Pinault for

House of Commons.

Al Last Aroused to an Attempted JUST
hcation of His Course, In the
House of Commons.
LONDON, Feb. 6.-During debate in
the house of commons, Sir William
Vernon Harcourt said the war was due
to sharp reversal Of British policy
and to needing the advice of wrong
people.
Mr.. Chamberlain then rose amiu ap
plause to make his long expected speech
defending the governments course.
He claimed that the position of Har
court and the opposition was incongru E
Gus.
First they said the war was unjust
and condemned the government for that,
then they turned around, and now
blame the government for not proseCut'
ing the W. vigorously enough.
Chamberlain admitted that mistakes
had been made, but the government had
honestly hoped for a settlement unit
the last moment. These mistakes are
now being rectified. Soon the country
would have 200, 900 men of all arms. in
| cludiug as many mounted infantry Il:
the Beers had OF the whole force. that
OF the Colonials would soon be nearly
| e.fourth.
Mr.. Chamberlain said that the gov,
ernment forces would soon assume tn {
original plan of campaign which gave
every promise of success. AS to the
settlement of the trouble in Soutl
Africa, he promised that there woult
never again be a Majuba settlement
never again would British supreuacN
| in South Africa be threatened. never
again would Englishmen there br
treated as an inferior race.
The war has taught both sides to re-
spect each other, and he believed til,
| wounds would heal in time and that
permanent peace would be secured
. Chamberlain remarks were Vipor
ously applauded by the government suu
pOrters.
