on Partial Vote the Winona
Man Leads
Favorable Character of Complete Unofficial Re
turns Received Warrant the Hope
That Gov Liud May Pull
Through.

The man who has been elected gov
ernor of Minnesota will have a narrow
margin, whether it be Gov. Lind or Capt
Van SAINT. With complete unofficial fig
ures from twenty-five counties or so, and
partial returns from the balance. the fig
ures this morning seem to indicate the
election of the Winona man. Chairman
Rosing would not at midnight give up
hope that the complete returns would
wipe out the apparent plurality of Capt.
Van SAINT. He based his hopes on the
fact that encouraging news had been re-
ceived from many counties yesterday
and that in every instance the unofficial
but complete returns gave Gov. Lind
more votes than the Republicans est:mat-
ed he would receive. In some cases the
figures were better than those at first re-
ceived by Mr.. Rosing from his own coun-
ty chairmen. With a majority of the
counties yet to be heard from on the
total vote it is possible that the plurality
will be for Gov. Lind.
The returns began to be received from
the county auditors by the secretary of
state yesterday. Half of the counties
showed gains over the first reports. Chi
sago county, which the evening news
papers had been claiming for Van SAINT,
by a large plurality, on the report re-
ceived by the secretary Of state was cut
down 200. Two other counties contribut-
ed 100 in the aggregate to the Lind
figures.
The G OBJ e figures as will be seen
are estimated in number of counties
from incomplete returns or based on
such telegrams as were received at state
headquarters and which simply gave the
plurality in the several counties so re-
ported.
There is still ample reason to doubt
the election of Van SAINT, but this doubt
ought TO be removed today, if the re-
turns come into the secretary of states
Office as expected
The committee reports show that Gov.
Lind suffered great deal from the fact
that there was a Socialist Democrat
on the ticket. A good many votes We're
lost by reason of the voters marking
both names. 1t is also known that
large number of votes were thrown out
because too many electors were voted
for. Instead of it's simply invalidating
the presidential ticket, it is known that
the state ticket suffered at the same
time, being thrown out with the presi-
Dental ticket But with all the hand1-
cap that the Democrats are known to
have had to contend with, and despite the
$1,000 or more votes received by Mckin-
ley, it still remains to be seen whether
or not Gov. Lind has been defeated.
The Republican state committee has
been shading down its claim for two
DAYS. Yesterday it dropped from S'oVo 10
less than 5000. 1t will have to come down
COO or 4,OO0 more. Still, it may strike
the bottom before Van SAINTS entire plu-
raIitv has been wiped out. Following are

RACE CONFLICT AVERTED
PEACE AGAIN REIGNS IN WASH.
INGTON. PA.
WASHTNCTON

WASHINGTON, Pa, Nov. S.-After a
night of excitement over a threatened
conflict between negroes and whites,
quiet prevails this morning, and through
the prompt action of the town authori-
ties, aided by the members of company
H, Tenth Pennsylvania volunteers, a race
1iot was averted. The trouble started OH
Tuesday night over the election, and the
fighting was kept up for a large part
of the night and all of yesterday. There
was numerous encounters between the
negroes and whites, and several persons
seriously injured. Fearing a serious out
break, a large number of extra policemen
were sworn in, and these with squads
of the Tenth regiment patrolled the
streets until daylight. A dozen arrests
were made and warrants are out for
many more. This morning the excite
ment has died down and unless there are
more assaults, no further trouble is ap-
pretended. The outbreak, it is said, was
instigated by negroes recently brought
from the South by contracting firms.

LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. S.-W. ]. Bryan
tonight gave out the following statement
cerning the election:
"The result was a surprise to me,
ahd the magnitude of the Re
publican victory was a surprise to
cur opponents as well as to those who
voted our ticket. 1t is impossible to
aDalyze the returns until they are more

Seem to have gained in the large cities
and to have lost in the smaller cities
and III the country.
s@''Fhe Republicans were able to secure
tickets or passes for all their voters Who
were away from home, and this gave
them considerable advantage. We have
no way Of knowing at this time how
much money was spent in the purchase
Aof votes and in colonization. But while
these would account for some of the Re
publican gains, they could not account
for the widespread increase in the Re
publican vote. The prosperity argument
was probably the most potent one used
by the Republicans. They compared
present conditions with the panic times
OF 1888 to 1886. and this argument hai
weight with those who did not stop to
consider the reasons for the change. The
appeal Stand by the president while the
war is on had a great deal of infnence ,te
among those who did not realize that a

NEW ORLEANS. Nov. S.-The New
Orleans Picayune sent telegraphic re-
quests to many leading Democrats in
various sections of the country asking
expressions with reference to the future
Of the Democratic party. The following
y are extracts from some of the replies:
T. c. Catchings, Mississippi-Drop free
silver; drop fuSionism; drop the cry OF
government by ihjunction; drop the cry
of imperialism and militarism; drop all
discussion about the Philippines until
: peace has been restored; drop appeals
to the passions and prejudiceS of the
idle and discontented; revive the funda-
mental question Of taxation; teach the
Democratic doctrine that people cannot
be made rich by taxing them; asSail the
faVoritism and wrongs of high pro
tective tariff; stand for the control of
trusts and combines by methods not op
pressive; demand enlargement of the
powers of the interstate commerce COM
mission and the liberal Improvement of
harbOrs. and insist on local self-govern-
ment, and let the next presidential cam
didate remain at home during the cam
paign.
Hol1e Smith, Atlanta. Gal doubt the
DISABILITY of reorganization. A party
which can poll the enormous vote that
the Democratic party has recently polled
is far from being a dead party. More
conservative councils will prevail in fu-
IuI0 conventions, ana with a pronounced
sound money platform in 1901, with a
man against whom no factional fight can
be made, there is every reason to be-
neve the party will triumph.
Horace Boies, Iowa-NIy belief is we
should drop 16 to l. let the money Ques-
ton rest while conditions remain as at
present; organize Democratic clubs in
every voting precinct to send delegates
to county. from county to state and from
state to national convention of delegates
TO meet periodically and formulate a plat
form for the party. This should be based
on principles enunc.ated in our declaration
strucuon of the sole source of legislative
power in congress. No subjugation of un-
willing principles by force Expansion in
everything that. pertains to peace, con-
traction in everything that pertains to
unnecessary war. One form Of govern
equal rights to all and special privileges
to none.
William Villas, Wisconsin-Ycu can not
wisely operate on a patient in utter col
lapse. When natural revival ensues, if
party consciousness comes back with re-
turning vitality, the way Of Democracy
fidelity. Let Democracy turn from It's

1zing alliances and return to the true

NEWFOUNDLAND ELECTION.
Both Sides Claim Victory, but Bet
ting FavOrs Bond.

ST. JOHNS, N. F., Nov. S-The polls
have closed in all the districts through
out the island for the colonial general
election today. No disorders have been
reported but intense excitement prevails.
The older voters say that nothing like
the present ferment has been known since
the election of 1869, when the question
before the country was confederation
with Canada. which was rejected by an
immense majority. Both sides claim a
victory, but the betting odds are i'll favor
of Bond government.
Those who favor confederation with
Canada are sorely disappointed at the
defeat of Sir Charles Upper i'll Cape
Breton, which is regarded as a setback
for the confederation project.
