The total vote of the second division will not be known for week perhaps as the returns from Fortuna Ledge. Dime. Teller and others will have to be sent to the end of wire by dog team.
 The totals of the known results show an immense vote for Grigsby, a strong support for Wickersham. and the probable election of Sundback to the senate, and possible election cf Rowe as road commissioner. Allan, Coombs, Daily and Reed are leading for representatives.
