Butte, Nov. 1O.-(Special to The
Gazette.)-The completed returns OF
Silver Bow county will not be known
until late this evening, although it is
generally conceded that the Heinze
legislative ticket is elected. The
Heinze nominees for district court
judges are believed to have been de-
feated.
The situation throughout the state
at noon today makes it very uncer-
tain on some of the candidates for
state Office. The only candidate on
either ticket whose certificate OF cleo
ton is assured is Governor Toole. He
will carry the state by 1000 at least.
Brantly, republican candidate for SUI
preme court justice, appears surely
to be n of the fortunate ones as d
result of last Tuesdays election. AS
to the result of the contest on the
rest of both state tickets the election
is very close.
On the legislature the returns indi-
cate that the republicans will have a
majority On joint ballot, thus assuring
the election OF a republican United
States senator to succeed Senator
Gibson, democrat.
The estimate sent out by Chairman
Mantle of the republican state com
mittee at midnight last Tuesday,
which claimed the state for Roosevelt
by 10000, will be confirmed on the
final count.
Dixon, republican candidate for CON
gress, will have 5000 majority over
Gormley, fusion. This is a splendid
endorsement, as it is in reality a bet
ter showing than made by Dixon two
years ago. Then the labor people had
a candidate in the field and this year
they went into the fusion deal and
supported Gormley.

Senator Depew's Heroic Work as a
campaigner.

New York, Nov. 7.-Senator Chaun-
cey Depew, who is y years old, re-
turned yesterday from a speaking tour
OF New York state in which he broke
all his spellbinding records. He has
spoken in every county in the state,
has averaged 800 miles of travel and
four speeches a day, and for the
twelfth successive presidential cam
paign he made his final speech in Mid
dletown.
Senator Depew said that while he
felt early in the fight that the repub-
lican state ticket was beaten, now he
is confident of Higgins election. He
predicted that New York would go for
Roosevelt by a large majority.

Scattering Votes.
OF the minor parties, the socialists
made the best showing. The highest
vote cast by them in any of the city
precincts was Is, and it developed
that eve socialists are possessed of
the great American weakness,
scattering" as some of the candi-
dates on their county ticket received
as low as nine votes. On the national
ticket they were more united, voting
that Straight" Boyd, their canul-
date for county clerk and recorder,
evidently received the support OF
some who are not believers, in the
cult, as he ran considerably ahead of
his ticket.
The election developed a few popu-
lists, but only a very few. The high
est number OF votes their presidential
electors received in any ward was
three, in precinct NO. 10. The social
list labor electors received two votes
and the prohibitionists four. How the
different minor parties ran in the out
side precincts is not known. Those
who forwarded the returns from there
seemingly did not consider them a

tation outside of the city, as they
figure in none of these.
Although the present system OF vot-
