Reelected Governor for Third Time
by Over 5000 Plurality.

DETROIT, November with a few
country districts still to hear from and
part of the Detroit vote not yet counted,
1t is practically certain today that Gov.
Frederick M. Warner has been reelected
for third term by about 5000 or 5000
plurality over his democratic opponent,
Lawton T. Hemans. The News with three
counties and a number Of Detroit pre-
cincts missing from its tabulation, gives
Gov. Warner a plurality of 5,s68 and es-
Inmates that the missing districts will in
crease this by $500 more. The journal
estimates the governors plurality al
0,OOO.
Apparently but one democratic member
Of the legislature has been elected, KEEP
pier. for representative in the second
Houghton district, where local conditions
have upset heavy normal republican
majority. Phillip Breitmeyer, the repub-
lican, continues to lead for mayor of De-
troit. and apparently has a majority
which cannot be overcome by Mayor w
B. Thompson.
