Willmar tribune., 1900-11-14

I Against this the democrats claim that
Bryan carried the state, though by a
narrow margin Of perhaps not over
| thousand that a fusion has a safe
working majority in the legislatures; that
| fusion state officers are elected by 5000
to 5000, and conceding reelection of Mer-
through Robinson, Stark, Shallenberger
and Neville. The latter is the only con-
gressman conceded by the republicans.
| The World-Herald (dem.) says: The Leg
tslature Of Nebraska is fusion, by u votes
out Of 23 on joint ballot. In the senate
there will be "A republicans and 10 fusion
| lists. In the house there will be Al repub-
licans and So fusionists.
| Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 8.-With the ex-
| ception of a short drive in the early even
ing, w. J. Bryan remained in his study
| during the day, rising late in the morn
ing and retiring early at night. He said
he had no statement of any kind to make
at present. Mr.. Bryan received hundreds
of kilograms during the day and evening
from personal and political friends, but
their nature was not disclosed. 1t Is
Mr.: Bryan's intention to remain in Lin
coin at least until he is thoroughly rest
ed. TO newspaper correspondents he
future action.
Louisville, KY, Nov. Sat 1:30 a. m,
with returns from all but 62 out of 1,884 pre-
cincts in Kentucky, the Courier-Jourral
puts Bryan's majority at 1874 and Beck
hams 4,O6S The missing precincts are
about evenly divided between democrats
and republicans. Gov. Beckham at dem
ocratic headquarters, said: II am absolute
ly certain that I have been elected governor
by majority of between 5000 and 900
votes" Leslie Combs, chairman of the
republican state campaign committee,
said: 1--WE still believe that Mr.. Yerkes
has been elected by majority of 5000
votes. Our figures show that Mckinley has
run 900 votes behind Yerkes.''
Illinois.
Chicago Nov. 8.-The republican state
central committee received kilograms from
the chairmen of all the republican county
committees except Adams county, giving
pluralities on the national and state tick
cts. The tabulation of these pluralities
showed that Mckinley received plurality
of S4,919 and Yates 49, 1865.
Congressman Rodenberg, of the Twenty
first district. telegraphed Chairman Fred
H. Rowe, of the republican state commit
tee, that he had been defeated by Kern, his
democratic opponent. This with William
Lorimer's defeat in the Second district,
gave INc uemOCTdLS TWO more members OIL
the Illinois delegation. The republicans
| now have IA and the democrats eight con-
gressrnen In the Illinois delegation. On the
face of the unofficial returns the repub-
| licans will have u and the democrats ten
| Illinois congressman in the next congress.
Reports indicate that the republicans
have elected Y and the democrats rs men,
bers to the lower house, and that the repub-
licans have elected % and the democrats
nave elected % senators. On this showing
the republicans have on joint ballot 106
votes. or three.more than majority.
Wisconsin.
Milwaukee, Nov. S.-Everything took on
| its normal condition Wednesday, and there
were no signs that an election had been
held. A complete figure of the republican
victory in Wisconsin will not be known
for perhaps several days, as many of the
precincts are far distant from railway sta
tions. and will be sent in by mail. Gen. Bry-
ant, chairman of the republican state central
committee, reduced his claims of plurality
slightly from those given out Tuesday
night, placing his latest estimates at 106,-
! 600 for both national and state tickets.
Chairman Warden, of the democratic state
| committee, was at his office attending to
| the winding up of the affairs of the COM
| mittee preparatory to closing headquar-
| ters, which he expects to do before the end
| of the week. Speaking of the result in the
state. he said the stupendous majorities
| were a surprise to everybody, republicans
| no less than democrats. The republican
state headquarters will probably remain
open until the complete returns have been
received. Interest now centers in the ap-
| po1ntments which will be made by Gov.-
| elect Robert M. LaFollette. But few
| changes are likely to be made by the new
governor, and no changes are talked of in
| the offices of the other state officers.
Indiana.
Indianapolis, Ind, Nov. S.-A plurality
| of anywhere from $4,000 to $4,000 for the
| republican national ticket; the election
| of Col. w. T. Durbin (rep) to the gov
ernorship; the election of the entire state
| and Marion county republican ticket;
| nine and perhaps ten out of 13 congress-
men. and the election of legislature
that will have a republican majority of
| 40 on Joint ballot, Is summary In brief
| Of Tuesdays battle at the polls in In
diana. An unexpected development is the
fact that the republicans made their
| strongest gains in democratic strongholds
| In seven heretofore strongly democratic
| counties Mckinley and the state ticket
| showed greater ratio of gain than
was shown by the figures from several
strong republican counties.
| With the exception of the Fourth dis
! trict, which I'D to this time is in doubt,
Indiana's contingent in congress will be
! as follows:
First District-James A. Heminway
(rep.).
Second District-Robert w. Miers
| (dem.).
Third District-W. T. Zenor (dem.).
Fourth District-In doubt.
! Fifth District-Elias Shalloway (rep.).
Sixth District-James E. Watson (rep.).
Seventh District Jesse Overstreet
| (rep.).
Eighth District-G. w. Cromer (rep.).
| Ninth District-C. B. Lands (rep.).
| Tenth District - Edgar Crumpacker
| (rep.).
Eleventh District-George w. Steele
Twelfth District - James Robinson
! (dem.).
Thirteenth District-A L. Brick (rep.).
| Ohio.
Columbus, O., Nov. S.-Democrat1c State
| Chairman Lang had no statement to give
out. Republican State Chairman Dick said
"Unofacial returns received from 81 out of
the 8S counties warrant the claim of 70, OO0
| for Mckinley, and we elect II of the q
members of congress, a gain of two men,
bers." The estimates on the four missing
counties makes the plurality about 73, 900. or
| a net republican gain of about $1,000 over
( the vote of 1886. The republicans gained in
| II counties and the democrats In II. most of
| the democratic gains being in Cleveland,
| Cincinnati and Toledo, where it Is reported
that most Of the vote that Mayor Jones, OF
| Toledo, received last year for governor
went to Bryan. The largest previous plu-
rality for president In Ohio was $4,000 for
| Lincoln, but that was on much smaller
| vote than was cast in the state this year.
The total vote in Ohio was about 1,1O0, ,OOO
the largest ever cast in the state, and the
| vote for minor parties was smaller than
usual. The republicans carried all of the
close or doubtful congressional districts,
electing Jacob A. Beidler, In the Twentieth
! by less than 500; Robert M. Nevin. in the
| Third, by 12l, and Emmet Tompkins, in the
Twelfth, by q plurality of 16.
