Sumner county, which had been
counted in the Democratic column with
its two representatives. was reported
today to have elected both Republican
representatives by a small majority.
This cut down the Democratic vote
and also piled up the Republican.
There are going to be lot of
doubles in names at the coming ses-
sion of the legislature. Here are some
of them in the list of Representatives:
Hopkins of Jackson and Hopkins of
Finney.
Stone of Shawnee and Stone of
Sherman.
Rhodes of Anderson and Rhodes of
Marshall
Jewett of Sedgwick and Jewett of
Lane,
Morton of Clay and Morton of Os-
borne.
Davis of Bourbon and Davis of
Kiowa.
Morgan of Reno and Morgan of
Hodgeman.
There is also Pyle and a Kyle. a
Matson and a Watson, and a Dryden
end a Brighton.

clerk of more than usual ability to
handle the roll call of the house at
| the coming session.
There are also some names in the
| list of members which are not likely
to be duplicated under any circum-
stances.
There is John Knoni of Marshall
county, w. F, Secavac of Ellsworth,
Richard Broilles. who represents Nor

state: and last but by no means least.

There are two relics of the old days
of Populism back in the legislature
One of these is Lot Ravenscraft who
will represent Harvey county, and
Iron Jaw Brown, who was elected
