Landslide Which Carries

State Ticket.
ARIZONA VOTED DRY
Kansas Had Counted But one-Twen-

But Republicans Made
Gains.


DENVER, Colo, Nov. A.--A republl-
can land slide has swept Into once
Geo. Carlson, republican candidate tor
governor. and nearly every candidates
on the republican state ticket In Colo
rado. The fight between the liquor In.
terests and the anti-saioon Ieaguers to
decide whether the state shall 90 wet
or dry 10 very close and will probably
require the offlcial count. Cartoons
plurality Will be upwards OF 2s,ooo.
These are the results Indicated early
TODAY by twenty-seven precincts (ofei-
claI) and eleven precincts (unofficlaI)
In Denver county and partial rsturns
from thlrty-three counties In the state.
Tho returns show the following:
For governor: carison, republican,
43,o71 cosdlgan, progressive, s,t73;
Patterson, democrat, 27,242.
FOR u. o. senator: Thomas, demo-
crat, is,221; GriWsth, progressive, 81
1e0; Work, republican, 17,e36.
Chairman stewart o. the rspubiiean
state central COMMITTEES early declared
the Indicated piuraIitiss would 9sner-
ally be followed by other republican
state candidates. He claimed the else
tiov, o. the entire ticket Including
Work for senator and al four eandi-
dates to congress-
Tho democratic state committee has
not yet conceded carison's election Of
fIciaIiy, but privately the OFFICERS adj
nit X.
They claim, however, the election o.
Thomas. democrat, for senator by
slight plurality and Of Teller, demo-
crat, for supreme court BY few thou
sand. The democrats also aliege they
have elected all four congressman. IN
complete returns are In from three
quarters Of the precincts Of the first
district (Denver) indicate the election
of Hiliiard, democrat, for congress by
1000 plurality. The ''wets" have car
ried Denver by 10000 plurality but the
"drys" claim more than enough pu-
raiitv in the rest Of the state to over
come that lead. One Of the surprises
Of the election was tho poor showing
made by the progressive candidates,
who ran far behind both republicans
and democrats.
In Doubtful Column.
TOPEKA Kan. Noy. 4--With only
one-twentieth of the vote accounted
for, Kansas was in the doubtful col
umn this morning. Late returns show
ed heavy gains for Capper. republican
candidate for governor, and Neeley,
democratic candidate for senator. On
the strength OF this the republicans
claimed the election Of Capper by TO-
600 but the democrats do not concede
this, although his gains came from an
unexpected quarter Murdock, progress
sive, is leading slightly in the sena-
torial race and Hodges. democrat, still
maintained slight lead for governor,
but growth of the Neeley-Capper vote
may oyerturn this lead at any time.
Allen, progressive candidate for gov
ernor. fell behind Murdock. apparently
losing many votes to Hodges. demo-
crat
Democratic Governor.
CHEYENNE. Wyo., Nov 4.-John
w. Kendrick, progressivedemocrat
candidate for governor has been elect
ed bp about 1900 plurality, according
to early incomplete returns. Frank
Mondell. republican. has undoubtedly
been reelected to congress by nearly
1000 plurality.
Governor Morehead.
OMAHA. Neb., Nov. 4.-Governo'
John n. Morehead probably has been
reelected by majority Of 5000 over
r. p. Howell, republican. Woman sui
frag.e probably has carried in Nebras
ka Returns are coming in very SLOW.
The result may be very close, requir,
! ing several days before definite re,
suits can be determined Omaha is in
doubt Congressmen Lobeck and
Stephens have been reelected. a. G
Shellenberger. democrat. is leading
