county, and their two members will Ike
" not be admitted into the Democratic
caucus. as the State Committee epdorped
the straightouts as the regular party
nominees. Late returns from Nelson give
that county to Everett Democrat) over
Goodwin Republican) by about 100, ana
thus the old county hitherto always Dem
ocrauo was swung back to her old moor

II is feared that this forebodes evil for
the Democrats In their nEressiona cam

senatorial district fromthe 500 Republican
majority, by which slemp carried It last
year, he would have been a Formidable
candidate but now the Democrats Wilt
have TO look elsewhere for their8nomi-
nee.
VALLEY DID WELL.
The Valley section did handsomely for
the Democrats. Senator Keezells friends
had some fears that he would fall out
side the breastworks, but the sturdy old
sycamore OF Cub Run" had been all over
| the ground before. and he swept his Re-
| publican opponent down. pulling through
'orc Of Ahis nominees for the House with
him. spessard. Latane, Wood and Mays.
all had many scratches. but pulled
through by safe majorites The DEM
ocrats are uneasy over the result in
Russell, where Captain Jacob G. Gent
is their nominee, The latest information
is that the result is in great doubt. and
1t will probably require the official count
to determine 1t.
E1fty.nIne OF this House members elect
ed are new men. and 9lunless Captain
Gent shall come back. the number Will be
sixty
Fourteen out OF the nineteen Senator's

on joint ballot IN the two, houses and
