Topeka. Kan. Nov. S.-The re.
election OF Governor E. w. Hoch
(Rcp) seems reasonably certain,
although the Democratic committee
sttll claims the state for w. A. Harris
by II plurality OF 1890. According to
figures received by the Republican
committee. % counties out of 1906
give lloch plurality of 4,l50. The
Democrats claim that their figures on
the same counties give Harris a plu-
rality of nearly 1000 and that the
official returns will give him over
5000. The eight counties stlll miss
Ing are in the western part of the
state. The Republican figures are
partially confirmed by special press
dispatches. Marion county, Governor
Hochs home, was carried by Harris
by majority Of 1879 votes, while
Douglas county, Colonel Harris home,
was carried by HoCh by 1870 majority.
Aside from the head of the ticket,
there is no question as to the cleo
