South Dakota.
Sioux Falls, S. D., Nov. 4.-Although
the reports received up to late hour
from the election in South Dakota
were of somewhat meager character
they were sufficient to make it certain
that the Republicans had made practi-
cally clean sweep in the state. W.
G. Cook, chairman Republican state
committee, claims the Republicans
have carried the state for the National
and state tickets and have elected
Chas P. Burk and Eban w. Martin
their nominees for congress.
Robert Wesley, Republican nominee
for governor, who timid Republicans
feared would be beaten by A. E.. Lee,
the nominee of the Democrats, showed
surprising strength and will have q
majority of not less than 10000 or
10000 over Lee in the state.
The fact that Vessey carried Lees
home city of Vermillion by a vote of
156 TO 105 was one OF the surprises of
the day. It is estimated that Clay
county. of which Vermillion is the
county seat, will give Vessey q ma
jority of 500. ". ..,.,s.

far as shown by reports received up
to late hour is Lincoln county,
which gives Taft majority of about
1000, with Wesley only about 100
votes behind. E
Minnehaha county, the center of the
fight against Mr. Wesley will give
Wesley majority over Lee of from
300 to 500. While only scattering
reports had been received up to q
late hour in reference to the. legis-
lature the Republicans are confident
from what reports have been received
that they have elected considerably
more than hundred OF the 149 mem
bers of that body, assuring the elec-
the successor of u. 8. Senator Kilt

Illinois. j. X ~:
Chicago, Nov. 4.-The Republican
national and state tickts have gained
a complete victory in Illinois, although
the pluralities will probably fall short
of those obtained by the party in the
Roosevelt campaign of 1904. Taft
has carried the state by approximate
ly 100000 votes, although it will be
some time today or Thursday before
the exact figures can be obtained
Charles S. Deneen, the Republican
candidate for governor, ran far be-
hind the national ticket, but has been
elected by a plurality of about 100000
