Only Three Republican Con-
gresham Are Safe.
W. A. WHITES COUNTY
1t May Cost Jackson His Seat
in Congress.
Democratic Gains in Every
County in the State.

State Journal returns on United
States senator, estimated this after
noon on incomplete returns from 90
counties give vote as follows:
Thompson 10000, Stubbs $1,000.
Most of the Thompson counties have
been heard from. There are many
Stubbs counties yet to come in. The
final result is hard to determine with
certainty. The Democrats claim
Thompson's election by 5000, but their
claims are not justified by figures. The
result will be very close.
Capper is undoubtedly elected COVER
nor by a small majority.
At 2:30 this afternoon election re-
turns at both headquarters and FROM
special correspondents of the state
Journal indicate that the Capper-
Hodges gubernatoria1 contest is vlr-
tual toss up with the final result more
close than the Stubbs-Hodges race OF
two years ago. Reports from the
larger towns this morning threw
Stubbs behind in the senatorial race,
but the contest is still quite close
Indications point to the election of at
least four Democratic congressman
with a fighting chance to beat Muir
dock in the Eighth and a strong indi-
cation that Jackson in the Fourth is
already lost. Democrats also claim a
working majority in the legislature
and staunch Republican standard bear
ers of the brand of Senator Fred H
Quincy are reported defeated in the
Democratic gains in many portions OF
the state. The race for the presi-
Dental electoral vote from Kansas is
still uncertain, both Roosevelt and
Wilson supporters claiming the state.
Returns from the Second, Fifth. Sixth
and Seventh districts point to the al
most certain election of Democratic
congressman. In the Second Taggart
appears to have defeated Brady, Hell
vering won over Rees in the Fifth. Con-
nelly beat Young in the Sixth and
Neeley is apparently reelected in the
Seventh. Returns from the Fourth
point strongly to Jackson's defeat by
Dudley Doolittle. The Democrats also
claim a majority for Doolittle in Lyon.
but these claims are not backed by
actual figures In the Eighth. the Dem
ocratic landslide in Sedgwick county
is considered most dangerous to Muir
docks chances. although he has been
given ma aiorities in Mcpherson, Harvey
and Sumner counties. The Eighth dis
trict race, with Sedgwick only partially
reported, is very uncertain.
Capper and Hodges both made gains
in unexpected territory in today's
count. Olathe, the home of Hodges, re-
ported to Republican headquarters a
slight lead for Capper, while Hodges is
running wild in Sedgwick, according to
Democratic reports. Leavenworth and
Crawford are piling up Democratic ma
jorities-as usual.

Most of the county candidates were
elected by good majorities. James G.
Sinner for county commissioner in
the Third district, carried practically
every precinct in his district. Matt
Weightman, treasurer, Bob" Tasker,
register of deeds, and Hugh McFar-
land, candidate for probate Judge, bid
fair to divide honors in leading their
tickets. Art Rargis, running for reg
lister of deeds on the independent tick
et never stood a chance, and finished
with less than 1000 votes.
Ernest r. Simon, early in the con-
f1ict, was believed to be defeated. and
the later returns bore out the belief.
His defeat was by narrow margin,
however. and was not admitted until
almost the last Of the returns were
in For a time it looked as though
L. L. Kiene. Republican candidate for
sheriff. might have trouble. But to-
ward the last of the counting the re-
turns took a turn in his favor, and he
will probably roll up a final majority

New York, Nov. 6-Overturn;ng big
Republican majorities in states never
before captured by the Democrats in
a presidential election, the wilson
Marshall ticket was swept into otilce
yesterday on the wave of victory
that carried with it state officers con-
gressional seats and the control of
number of legislatures that will have
the opportunity to Gust Republicans
from the United States senate and add
to the Democrat strength in that body
Second only in interest to the over
whelming victory of Wilson and Mar
shall, was the strength shown by Col
Roosevelt in Illinois, Pennsylvania and
other states.
on returns received from states
where the result was reasonably Ger
tain, it appeared that Governor VIII
son would have almost, if not quite,
400 of the 531 votes in the electoral
college, and that Col. Roosevelt would
have nearly 100. President Taft re-
ceived u votes. those of Vermont,
Idaho and Utah, while the AZ votes of
Iowa. Minnesota, New Hampshire
South Dakota and Wyoming remained
in the doubtful column.
Pennsylvania So votes today were
apparently certain for Roosevelt. The
race among Taft, Roosevelt and Will
son was almost an even affair until
more than 600 ballots had been
counted. AS precincts outside tbs
large cities began to report, Roose-
Welt and Wilson forged anead and with
something over half the vote counted
Roosevelt this morning had a major
ity of over 10000.
Minnesota, conceded to Wilson at
midnight, later slipped back into the
doubtful column as accessions to tins

crat lead. Iowa, given to Roosevelt
in the midnight returns. showed a
strong reversal of form and this morn
ing partial returns gave Wilson a
slight lead.

close as to make predictions of the
result impossible. Taft's lead over

Two of the contests are still in
doubt These are the fight between
c. G. Blakely, Republican, and DR.. A.
c. Sloan, Democrat, for the office of
representative from the city district,
and between Fred E. Nipps, Repub-
lican, and J. H. Ulsh, Democrat, for
county commissioner from the same
district. The last available returns,
based on all but two precincts in the
district complete, give Ulsh a slight
small lead over Blakely. This is be-
lieved may be turned when the dig
precinct, the fourth of the Third
ward, comes in. The other precinct
remaining out is the fourth of the
Fourth ward. In the former the Re
publicans have the advantage. In the
latter it is more or less of a stand
off, between them.

Plan COAL INQUIRIES
Land Offices and Bureau of
Mines Prepare for Hearings
and Investigations.

Hearings OH many cases involving valu-
able coal lands in Alaska will be held al
the Seattle land Office in October. They
involve questions Of prior agreements,
alleged dummy entries, and non-opening
and non-development of coal mining
lands. The cases eventually will reach
the general land Office here for final ac-
ton.
The Hunt group of coal land claims,
known locally the Lippy-Davis cases,
adjoining the Cunningham claims in the
Boring river district of Ma ska, will come
up before Commissioner bennett here for
final action in three or four months on
appeal from the Juneau land office The
locators in that group are said to be
stockholders of the Alaska Petroleum
Company prospecting in that section.
Many acres of waterfront on Controller
bay are owned by company said to be
subsidiary to the petroleum concern.
