WILSON ELECTED
SEEMS TO HAVE MADE ALMOST
CLEAN sWEEPP-ALL SEC.
TlONS GIVE HIM VOTES.
ANENORMOUS LANDSLIDE
Taft and Roosevelt Divided the Re.
publican Vote and Neither Have
Many States to Their
Credit.

The election of 1912 will go down in
history as a record breaker, and Wood
row Wilson will be elected president
by the largest electoral vote ever re-
ceived by any candidate I'm the history
of the country. All previous major
tiles for any popular candidate will
appear small besides the enormous
vote received by the democratic candi-
date.
The earlier reports indicated a land
slide to Wilson and the later ones con-
firmed them and added to the plurali-
tics of the democratic nominee.
The republican vote the entire coun-
try over was about equally divided
between President Taft and Colonel
Roosevelt, and the list of states in
which either Of these candidates were
successful was very small indeed.
The three-cornered presidential con-
test sent voters to the polls who took
unprecedented interest In the outcome
Of the campaign which has been waged
with unusual bitterness. Reports from
every quarter of the United States in
dicate a record vote.
In addition to the national ticket
thirty-three states voted for governor
and thirty-siN for a legislature to MI
senate vacancies
All the states were favored with
Indian summer except Washington.
Oregon and Minnesota, where n small
amount of rain fell. The reports con-
flrmed the belief Of a record vote over
the country.
The vacancy on the republican bal
lot caused by the death OF vice. presi-
dent Sherman was not filed and the
name remained ON the ballot.

NON.IRRIGATED LANDS.
Crop Returns From Dry Farming
Section Of Montana.

Billings.-Througho the non-irrf
gated sections north Of here growers
are taking advantage Of the splendid
weather conditions to hurry to COM
pletion the work Of threshing the big
grain and fax crop which grew in
that territory. Reports of enormous
yields continue to be received and in
many instances IT is said these are
far greater than even the most ex-
travagant previous estimates.
Harry b. Drum, who was formerly
one of the big cattlemen of the north
ern country during the halycon days
of the range, and who, with the ad-
vent of scientific dry land farming
disposed of the greater part of his
stock and threw barbed wire fences
around his broad acres Of sage brush
and buffalo grass, is among those
whose granaries are almost bursting
with their store Of golden wealth.
Il had 1876 acres Of hard winter
wheat" said Mr.. Drum, land ii aver
aged thirty-five bushels to the acre,
and not only was the yield much
heavier than I anticipated. but the
grain is of the finest class and will
certainly command a high price on
the market. My oats were the finest
! ever saw. There were only about
twenty-five acres of them, but the
yield was a trifle more than sixty
eight bushels to the acre. and in quail
ity they could not have been better.
They stood five feet high and were
SO heavy that when an eight-foot
binder started harvesting them We
were unable to cut a full swath for
the machine simply could not handle
them. In threshing ii kept three men
working like beavers to take them
away. so rapidly did they pour out Of
the machine"
Mr.. Drum says many other farmers
raised crops as good as his, in fact.
that in all instances where farming
was done in the proper manner, the
harvest was excellent He also re-
ports the fax yields are heavy and
that n largely increased acreage will
be seeded next spring.
