Inmates the majority of James b.
Frazier, Democratic candidate for
Governor, at $4,000 votes.
The Congressional race in the
Eighth district is close, but returns
leave no doubt of the reelection of
L. w. Sims, Democrat, over F. N.
Davis, Republican. The Anti-Saloon
League has cut quite figure in the
State Legislative election, the lower
house being overwhelmingly its way,
while from 90 to % of the Senate's SO
members are claimed to be in sym-
pathy with the anti saloon movement.
Both houses of the legislature are
largely Democratic.
NEBRASKA.
Complete and party complete re-
turns from enough counties to accu-
rately forecast the result show that
Mickey, Rep, has been elected gov
ernor of Nebraska by not less than
1000 and probably by 5000 plurality.
The rest Of the Republican State
ticket is elected by an increased plu-
rality. The Republican State Com
mittee says Mickey has 5000. Fusion
lists will not concede this but gener-
ally admit his chances are best.
For Congress the Republicans carry
the First district (Burkett), Fourth
(Hinshaw) and the Sixth (Kinkaid).
Fusionists elect Hitchcock in the
Second. The Third and Fifth are in
doubt. The Republican committee
claims both, and Mccarthy, Republi-
can candidate in the Third, telegraphs
he is elected, but figures to prove it
are lacking. Norris, Republican, says
he is elected in the Fifth, and so does
Shallenberger, Fusion. Both districts
are undoubtedly close.
The Republicans will control both
branches of the legislature by great
ly increased majority, having proba-
bly, % of the 80 Senators and 20 of the
100 House members.
MICHIGAN.
Newspaper tabulations of election
returns indicate that the plurality of
Governor Bliss will run up to 36. 975,
his vote being 1893, as against IA, 718
for l.. L. Durand, the Democratic
candidate for governor That Bliss
was ruthlessly cut is shown bv the
fact that the plurality of Judge w. L.
Carpenter, Republican candidate for
justice of the Supreme Court, amounts
to 59,S16.
The State Legislature will have ex-
actly the same complexion as its pred
ecessor-one Democrat among the 80
Senators and 10 Democrats out of 100
members of the House of Representa-
tives.
MISSOURI,
While complete returns from all
parts of the State haye not been re-
ceived, there is no doubt of the cleo
ton of the Democratic State ticket,
a safe Democratic majority in the leg
islature that will select a successor to
United States Senator G. G. Vest and
the election of Is Democrats out of 16
Congressman. Hon. Richard Bart
holdt, who was re elected to Congress
from the Eleventh district, was the
only successful Republican candidate.
WISCONSIN.
The latest returns give Governor
La Follette's plurality in the State at
$4,000. As near as can be figured the
next legislature will be made up about
as follows: Assembly, 70 Republicans
and 25 Democrats; Senate, 81 Repub-
licans and Democrats.
NEVADA.
The entire Fusion State ticket has
been elected with the exception of
Bray, superintendent of schools.
Sparks majority for governor will be
fully 1900. Van Duser. Democrat, for
Congress, carried the State by 1000.
NORTH CAROLINA.
Semi-otficial figures, with one coun-
ty lacking, give the Democratic State
ticket a majority of 64,266. Demo-
Gratis elect 45 of 90 State Senators.
The House is 81 Democrats, 81 Repuh-
licaus, l Independent Democrat and
1 doubtful. The Democratic Cor :
gressmen are elected.
FLORIDA.
The entire State and COMPRESSION al
Democratic ticket was elected with
out opposition. The result being in
no doubt, only a small vote was
polled.
SLEMP'S MAJORITY ABOUT 500.
Returns from the Ninth district of
Virginia confirm the election of Col.
Fl. Campbell Slemp, Republican, over
Judge w. F. Rhea, and the majority
will probably reach 500. The Ninth
comprises large area of mountain
Gus country, and the complete re-
