STATE ELECTION
STILL IN DOUBT
Republican Candidates for State

Most Part Are Leading.
HALL, BECKMANN, THOMAS WIN
For Lieutenant Governor HOaGIand

Margin by which Pear
son Leads.

Republican candidates for state offices
below governor. for the most part are
leading their democratic opponents in
tabulstions of election returns to date.
An exception. however. exists in the case
of candidates whose residence is in
Omaha
Republican candidates whose election is
indicated by the returns to date are:
Hall. for railway commissioner; Beck
mann for land commissioner. and Thomas
for state superintendent. Brown, re-
publican, and Miller. democratic, won the
contest for university regents.
Pearson, democratic, leads HoaglarSl
republican. for lieutenant governor by
only n slight margin which is likely to
be overcome by later returns. Wait, re-
publican. has nice lead over Pool demo-
cratic candidate for secretary of state.
A feature of the late returns lies in the
showing of Governor Morehead. who al
though he received somewhat smaller
vote than in 1912, has defeated Howell in
slxty-nine counties and ninety-one pre-
cincts by 1903 votes, while in the same
territory in 1912 he beat Aldrich by only
1884 votes. Howell thus ran nearly 5000
votes behind Aldrich in the same count

welcome from the allies point OF
view, is that the Russian armies be-

have reached the Warthe river in
Russian Poland and established
themselves on the east Prussian

In fact, a Berlin official report
says some Russian cavalry crossed
the Warthe river. but were driven
back. To this the Russian report
adds that the town Of Warta on the
warthe river In Poland. has been oc-

The Russians, too, are responsible
for the report that they have de-

boundary, and at Lyck. in east
Prussia.

Military observers, here say that the
Russians have followed the retiring Ger

was anticipated and that II they are IN

Germans from taking up their new posi-
tions on the Warthe and compel them
