with unoiflclal returns from prac-
tically every county in the state, the
election of Ben w. Coleman of this
city as Supreme Judge was conceded
by the Republican State Central com
mittee. according TO a telegraphic
message received by the News from
the Reno Journal. His majority
against Judge B. F curler is placed
at less than 100. A new tabulation
OF the votes In Nye county indicated
that Curler had lost 100 votes and
this discovery swept into the discard
all chances of the Republican nomi-
nee gaining first place in the battle
OF the ballots. This disclosure re-
vealed why there was such discrep-
ancy in the different returns receiv-
ed in Ely for Supreme Judge.
The enigma as to who has been
elected United States Senator still re-
mains unsettled. Late advices from
the western end of the state indicate
that Newlands leads Platt by 10
votes. with only small number of
precincts In the remote sections of
the state missing.
They are having see-saw race
for the honor of representing Nevada
In the upper house of Congress. and
IL threatens to be the most interest
ing contest of the present campaign
The result must remain undetermin-
ed until an official canvass has been
made.
The result from places without
means of communication either by
telegraph or telephone cannot be de-
termined until the ballot boxes have
been conveyed TO the respective
county seats.
Grant Miller, the standard bearer
of the Socialists ran more than $500
votes ahead of his ticket. and lead
his opponents in Nye and Esmeralda
counties. His total vote according to
latest reports Is 5211.
T.. T.. Roberts has been returned
TO Congress for the third time with
a majority that seems to be over
whelming His lead Is pronounced
In all sections of the state. and his
peculiar popularity seems 10 have
won him victory While others
were busy looking after their polti-
cal fences Roberts was attending to
the interests OF his constituents at
Washington. and his fidelity resulted
in a majority of more than 700 over
Leonard Fowler.
One of the features OF the election
was the defeat of Edward Ryan as
Mine Inspector The landslide that
carried through the majority OF the
Democratic ticket seemingly avoided
him. Andy J. Stinson the Republl-
can candidate. was swept into power
with lead that will exceed $500,
and he lead the polls most every
where.
Maurice Sullivan was elected lieu
tenant-governor over J. Lozano by a
tremendous vote. his majority being
estimated at $500. Burton received
the nominal Socialist vote
The lead of Emmett Boyle for Gov
ernor is conspicuous. and late figures
Indicate his triumph by at least 500.
George Brodigan, secretary OF
State. and Joe Farnsworth. state
printer. and John Edwards Bray
went before the people for vindica-
ton and got IL in the shape OF big
majorities.
Brodigan is leading Holmes by
1900. For Farnsworth the result was
a tidal wave and he received the
highest vote on either ticket. Bray
is one OF the few office-holders that
Nevada retained. and his majority
over J. r. Abel will be In the neigh
borhood of 500.
Edward Mslley. the pride of the
southland. was an easy winner for
state controller, and he holds first
place In the state wide contest by
2400 votes
George Cole did not disappoint his
admirers In the fight for state con-
troller, and defeated Jacob Eggers,
who has held that position for the
last eight years.
The effort of George Springmeyer
to become Attorney General for the
third successive time proved futile.
Although II was intended to a two
man event, Richard Mckay, a former
Ely resident. who requested Repub-
licans throughout the state to ignore
