REPUBLICANS HAVE
Big MAJORITY
LEGISLATURE BY MORE
THAN TWO-THIRDS MAJORITY
IN BOTH HOUSE AND SENATE

Helena, Nov. 12.-The latest returns
from throughout the state indicate
that the plurality of Charles N. Pray,
republican, for congress, over T. ]
Walsh, Democrat, will be even great
err than heretofore estimated by
Fletcher Maddox, chairman Of the re-
publican state central committee, or
approximately $500, and that of
Henry c. Smith, republican, for asso :
ciate justice of the supreme court, over
J. B. McClernan, democrat, about
$780, These figures are based on late
telegra phic reports from every county
in the state.
While the reports from Silver Bow
county are still incomplete, it is rea-
sonably certain that the republicans
have elected eleven of that countv's
twelve representatives in the lower
house, leaving for the democrats the
senatorship and one representative.
The democrats elected are Messrs.
Haviland as senator, and Powers as
represen tative.
This will make the complexion of
the next legislature on joint ballot:
Republicans, n; Democrats, %.
These figures are subdivided as fol-
lows: House, republicans, 50; Demo-
Gratis, IA; Senate, republicans, 49,;
Democrats, 9. Thus, the republicans
have a majority of 81 on joint ballot,
two-thirds of the senate and quite
three-fourths of the house member
ship.
While it is not impossible, it is re
garded as highly Improbable that any
other changes in the complexion of
the house will be noted. Chairman
David G. Browne of the democratic
state central committee, comedies a
republican membership of 18 in the
senate but is still hopeful for further
gains in the house, although admittin <
that he does not anticipate any great
change.

MANY new TOWNS
SPRlNG!NG UP
MILWAUKEE AS A TOWN BUILDER
HAS PROVED A HUGE
SUCCESS.

AS town builder the Chicago, Mil
waukee & st. Paul railway is credited
with being glittering success. While
work on the extension has only begun,
scores of new towns are already estab-
lished along the proposed line in Da-
kota and Montana, and many more
will be built as construction proceeds.
The following towns on the road in
the Dakotas have been recently OPEN
ed: Vivian, Presho, Kennebec, Re-
lance, Draper and Murdo Mackenzie,
all OF which are reported to be in
1ourishing condition. Other towns
soon to be established are Stearns,
Belvidere, Kadoka. Okaton, Weta,
Interior, Casey, Creston, Farmingdale
and Caputa. Mohridge, located in the
crossing of the Missouri river. in
Walworth county, South Dakota, will
be the first town to be opened on the
Montana extension.
A number of contracting firms are
now actively engaged in the work of
constructing the Milwaukee line
through Montana, and the pay roll of
the road is consequently changeable
one.
Work on the Milwaukee extension
through the Musselshell county is pro-
crossing as rapidly as possible with
the limited number of graders en-
ployed. Orders have been received at
the employment offices in Billings to
send out all the men who will go. A
score or more have been shipped to
Lavina, near which poiut grading is
now being DONE Missoulian.
