this morning, Codington county gives
Burke. republican. for senator. a ma
jority of IS over Johnson. democrat. In
the same precincts, Byrne. republican.
for governor, falls short of McCarter,
democrat. by II. In most counties in
this section, however. from which only
scattered returns have been received.
the situation is reversed. Byrne usually
getting a larger vote than Burke.
Brookings county reports a majority
of 1923 for Johnson. but about 225 for
BNrne. The vote for LouckS for SEN
ator and Richards for governor is very
small.
The Codington county result, show
ing Burke leading Byrne, reflects the
strenuous opposition to the governor
in Waterfowl. where he was cut hard.
especially i'm n ward. and is no indi-
cation of the general trend of returns.
The Waterfowl Public opinion this
morning claims the election of Byrne
by about 1000. but admits some doubt
as to Burke.

not change the result very materially.

from Burke. has unquestionably gone
through. Locally, everything was re-
publican, outside of senator.
Johnson carried the county by 300.
