Sioux Falls, S. D., Nov. 7.-Later re-
ports indicate that republicans have
carried South Dakota by from 25, 900
to $4,000 plurality, a falling off from
$4,000 to 10000 from the vote two years
ago.

at large. The republicans will have
at least eighty-five out of 1913 mems
bers of the legislature. The vote was
light throughout the state.
Sioux Falls, S. D., Nov. 1.-THE re-
suit of the election means that the in
surgents are safely in control of South
Dakota and will remain in control for
at least the coming two years. The
reform element will have control also
of the legislature which will be in ses-
sion next January and February and
will elect a United States enator Sem
ator Robert j.. Gamble, n of the lead-
ers of the insurgent faction, whose
term expires March 4 next, will be
reelected as his own successor, ha
having been Endorsed by the state con-
vention for reelection.

Close Fight in Minnehaha.
The result in this Minnehaha) coun-
ty at 1 o'clock was yet in doubt on the
county ticket. The democrats have
certainly elected Charles Nelson, their
nominee for sheriff, defeating John H.
Toohey, the republican candidate. The
democrats claim to ave elected others
of their nominees, but the republicans
concede nothing but sheriff. Returns
are unusually slow in coming in, only
a part of the county precincts having
reported.
The reelection of Willis Cook,
chairman of the republican state CEN
trail committee, to the state senate
from Aurora was a matter of gratifica-
ton to the insurgent republicans. Al

Cook.

Throughout the state there has been
a notable falling off in the vote from
1904, which was q presidential year.
The republican ticket showed the

he was confronted. consented to
plead guilty to forgery, in addition to
embezzlement.
The sentence given Stensland yester-
day will not .engthen his term of i'm
prisonment, as the new sentence is on
current with the old. Stensland had
been brought from the penitentiary at
Joliet to give evidence against Herring,
who, it was understood, would make a
fight, but Herring changed his mind and
decided to brow himself upon the
mercy of the court. Stensland. how
ever, took the stand and told of how
the bank was wrecked. Both men were
taken to Joliet today.

HUGHES BY 10000.

Chairman Woodruff made the
following statement early this
morning:
Ihmsen, Hearst's manager, has
telegraphed all over the state:
"Don't permit victory to be
snatched away by fraud. Fight
for your rights"
We at republican state head
quarters know that Hughes has
been elected by more than 10000
plurality outside of New York as
against Hearst's alleged plurality
or 5000 in Greater New York.
This plurality Of at least 10000
for Hughes in the state insures
the eelction OF the entire repub-
lican ticket and legislature. Don't
be misled by Hearstism or fooled

NEVER in the history of the
country has their been such uni
versal prosperity as in the past two
years. Throughout the East, the
South and the Middle West, the
factories are overcrowded with
work and months behind with their
orders, while on this coast bust
ness of every description is bound
ing ahead with such speed that
nobody can keep the pace. In
Nevada is this particularly the case,
although there are many draw
backs in the way of procuring ma
terial for building, mechanics for
erecting buildings, miners, or any
kind of labor. But few people in
this district have anticipated any
such conditions. Nobody has been
ready to transact such business
as has been forced upon them.
Right in the Yerington district
there is three times the amount of
business being done that was done
a year ago. The orders for goods
cannot be filled fast enough; there
are delays in mining equipment
on account of not being able to get
lumber and other supplies, and
prices for all such material are ad-
vancing nearly every'week. When
the Spring opens there will be a
rush of business in the Mason Val
ley district such as will make
things hum. The business men of
the community must get ready to
handle it. 1t will not do any more
to buy in small quantities, carload
lots of all things should hereafter
be the rule. Never have the pros
poets of this section looked bright
er. Mines are being opened up all
around US and the outlook for
plenty of water and good crops for
next season is excellent. Don't be
afraid, Mr.. Farmer to put all the
land you own into crops next
Spring. 1t does not matter what
you raise, you can sell it all at
good figures right at home.

WHILE the late storm has been
somewhat of a dampener on the
prospectors in this section, it will
not be many months now before
there will be all kinds of activity
in this district. The unprecedent-
ed severe weather has kept many
people from coming in here to
look over the field, both on the
west and east side of the valley.
With the opening Of Spring, how
ever. and before, if the weather
permits, there will be more people
in this district than ever before.

NEVADA is getting some of the
worst railroad service ever expert
enced by any State in the Union.
1t takes about three weeks for
Yerington people to get anything
from San Francisco or Sacramen to
by freight, and at any time a
blockade may occur which will tie
traffic up for an indefinite period.
The railroad company is swamped
with business, we are aware, but
it does seem that the people of
Nevada should be shown a little
more consideration. There is not
a camp in this section of the State
that is not short of fuel, and coal
and wood prices have scared to a
height that cannot be reached by
any but the wealthy. The people
of this place have been waiting for
coal which was ordered from Utah
over three months ago. There is
no coal in the town and wood is
selling for $40 per cord, as the
storm has cut off that supply from
the hills. The'cause of the coal
shortage is said to be on account
of the railroad having no cars with
which to haul it. The rates
charged to all points in Nevada
are high enough to call for the
best of service, but we are actually
getting the poorest.
