Sioux Falls, S. d. Nov. 1.-THE adj
mission by Johnson that he loses the
| governoship to Byrne, whose major
| ty he comedies to be not less than 3d.
| 500, removes all doubt as to the result
of Tuesdays election and gives the
state over to a republican clean sweep.
i Figures on the governorship are in
| from three fourths of the counties. Es-
| Inmates where definite returns are
/ lacking give Byrne a majority of
5000 to 10000. Figures on the minor
state officers are not so complete, but
enough information is at hand to make
sure the election of the entire republi-
can ticket The legislature will be re-
| publican in both branches by a safe
majority, although the democrats have
made a slight increase in both house
and senate.
The Richards primary law, the cleo
Il trio headlight law and all other re-
| ferred propositions have carried by
/ large majorities
i In dozen OR more counties in the
more newly settled regions of the state
the question of county seat removals
i WAS submitted to vote but the pro-
position was defeated in all cases.
