districts returned republicans, and the
complete republican state ticket was
elected, most of the candidates lead

pears democratic. The returns con-
firm the defeat of J. N. Dolly for the
Legislature. Governor Stubs said
my majority will be about eight thou

publicans have elected the entire state

The first district congressional COM
mittee has the unofficial reports from
eight counties in the district giving
him 1880.
Kirksville, Mo-, Nov 9,-For the
first time since the civil war the coun-
ty court of Adair county is democratic,
according to the reports from twenty
of the twenty two precincts. A. P.
Hophon and Jacob Shoop defeated
their opponents by safe majorities in
this county, which is normally eight
hundred republican.
Kansas City, Mo-, Nov. 9.-In the
fourteenth Missouri district Joseph j.
Russell, democrat, was elected con-
gresham.
Chicago, Nov. 9.-Democratic con-
troll of the next house of representa-
tives became certain shortly after mid
night Then it was known that the
democrats gained 26 seats in the
house, including two previously Sc
cured in Maine:
Elections held throughout the coun-
try yesterday resulted in political
convulsion of far reaching extent, sim
liar at many points to the famous tidal
wave of 1882, and apparently more
widespread in it's effect.
Indications toward midnight were
that the national house of representa-
tives has been carried by the demo-
Gratis, reversing the present republican
majority of forty-three. The United
States senate will probably have a
reduced republican majority as the
result of the legislative elections held
in many states.

Guthrie, Okla, Nov. 9.--Lee Cruce,
democratic candidate for governor and
the entire democratic state ticket was
elected by at least twenty thousand
majority, according to the returns re-
ceived here up to nine o'clock this
morning. 1t appears the democrats
will control the legislature.
Three democratic congressional can
didates were elected, with the contests
in the first and second districts still
in doubt. Bird S.-McGuire, republican,
in the first and N. e. McNeal, demo
crat both claim their election e. L.
Fulton, democrat, and Dick T. Nor
gan, republican. both claim election
in the second district. Late returns
confirm the defeat of the amendment
to substitute local option for state
wide prohibition.
At noon the republicans conceded
the election of the democratic state
ticket, but held that Bird s. Mcguire
was elected to congress from the first
district

four days of moody silence, four
days of more than his traditional

INDIANS PLAY
GOOD BALL WITH
III, nRL[LWUOU1

Glass showed all through the
playing of the Spokane Indians yes
terday afternoon in their encounter
with the Hazelwoods of the city
league, resulting in Is to victory
for the aborigines.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
city leaguers hammered Browns
best" viciously and without re-
serve, they were held powerless
with Vic Holm in the box. The
score of 10 to 4 comes from a really
exciting game, despite the one-sided
appearance of it, the fielding, as
well as the batting, of the Indians
having been excellent.
Brown. Holm and Claflin, main
stays of this season in the Indians
pitching staff, were all given a
trial on the buttermilk drivers, and
Claflin showed that he was coming
back in good form, as we'll as the
rest of them.
Games with various young teams
will be played all week up till Fri
day afternoon, when the Indians
will rest in preparation for the en-
counter with Vancouver Saturday,
the opening game of the Northwest
league season.

Of HIS TEAMS
ABILITY

Kippert. the Indians center
fielder, who was called to Tacoma
by the illness of his wife few days
ago, returned to the city this morn
ing and will go on with his work
with the team. President Cohn now
seems to have implicit confidence
in his 1910 Indians, for the showing
they have made when pitted against
teams of the minor leagues and III
dependents. He stated this morn
ing that practically all of them were
in fine shape now and he does not
fear their condition will not be the
best when the opening gun of the
season will be fired between them
and the Vancouver team Saturday
afternoon.

league this afternoon and tomor-

that will demand his attention is
