will receive about the same number OF

quite a falling off from the vote OF
| 1900 Of Juneau county. The educa

IN OTHER STATES.
| New York, Nov. 5.-Elections were
held in AZ states and returns indicate
that the control Of congress remains
with the republicans. While the Off
cial returns may make the working
majority close one, there is no COubt
that it will be sufficient for all party
purposes. From the national stand
point, the control of the lower branch
of congress was the real contest.
Many states elected legislatures which
will choose United States senators but
the result of these elections has in no
way imperiled the republican majority
of the upper tody.
In the east the main interest cen
tered in New York and Pennsylvania,
in the latter because of Tie conditions
brought about by the recent coal
strike and in New York because of it's
bearing on the future of the republican
candidate for governor.
New York reelected Governor Odell
and the entire state ticket, though the
falling off in the republican plurality
compared to 1900 was enormous.
OdelPs plurality placed at about
1 otr IN
in the legislature, but not enough to
defeat the election of a republican
successor to Senator Platt. The dem
ocrats also made slight gains in the
congressional elections, unofficial fig
ures placing the delegation at 20 re-
publicans and II democrats.
In Pennsylvania Samuel W. Penny
packer, republican, was elected gov
ernor by plurality of more than 49,,
900 while the legislature is overwhelm-
ingly republican. The democrats elect
ed two and possibly three of the 80
congressman.
In Illinois there is every Indication
that the republican ticket has been
elected by a good majority and the
next legislature is safely republican.
In the west, Kansas, Idaho and Utah
we're the storm centers because Of the
fight for United States senators, while
in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and several
other states, the close congressional
districts attracted much interest. IN
Michigan the republicans elected Gov.
Bliss and the entire state ticket be-
sides securing II of the IL congress
men. The legislature is strongly re-
publican. In Rhode Island the demo-
Gratis elect a governor and the legisla-
! ture is republican. California returns
, indicate that the governorship is in
doubt. The legislature is probably
republican.
Indications in Kansas are that the
republican state ticket was elected
with eight congressman.
Nevada returns point to a fusion
victory.
In Minnesota a plurality of 10000
is claimed for Van SAINT, republican
for governor.
Nebraska shows vote exceedingly
close for governor, with the remain.
der of the republican ticket probably
elected.
A small plurality for Morrison, re
publican, for governor is indicated in
| idaho
Washington and Wyoming appear
to be safely in the republican column
Indiana is estimated to have given
the republican candidates $4,000 to
10000.
Indications from Utah point to a re
publican majority in the legislature
on joint ballot.
! The southern tier of states as usual
, show a solid democratic front.
