HOO Ballots for Their Canal-
 date.
 Topeka, Kan, Nov 2S-The state canvassing board has issued certifi- cates of election to the republican candidates for state offices. The candidates for member of the legis- lature who were successful were also given certificates. In the In- galls-Wilcox district in Atchison where the vote was tie. the case will be disposed of December 12 at an adjourned meeting of the board.
 remarkable feature of the off cial returns is that there were only 1000 votes less cast for governor this year than two years ago. The democrats boiled nearly 34,000 more, however, than they did at the election of 1904 The republican vote for gov ernor this year was 152,I47 and two years ago it was 1S6,731 The demo- cratic vote for governor increased this year from 116, ,g91 ~cast for Judge Dale in 1904 to 150024. The socialists vote for governor this year was 7.621 as compared to 12, 101 two years ago. There was decrease of more than 2,000 in the number of votes boiled by the prohibitionists.
 Two years ago the populist can. didate for presidential elector re- ceived 6,253 votes and this year H. A. Keefer the candidate for governor, received only 1.131. It is probable that this small vote wipes the party out of existence and that the remain ing faithful will hereafter be found with one of the stronger political or ganizations.
