candidate for the United States sen.
Rtorship settled, and with Governor
Burnquist's victory, known through the
early returns, the attention of the vot.
ers over the state was directed to the
apparent victory of Thomas Frankson
Of st. Paul over James A. Peterson
of Minneapolis for the Republican
nomination for lieutenant governor;
to Thomas P. Dryers unexpected vic
tory over Samuel D. Works, state in.

tention.
keliogg's Victory Is Complete.
Mr.. Kellogg's victory was complete
To his platform of Americanism and
preparedness, Mr.. kellogg accredited
his success in polling 59,139 votes out
of 1914 precincts, against 4O,652 for
former Governor Eberhart, 20,911 for
Senator Moses E. Clapp and 20,l47 for
Congressman Charles Lindbergh. Mr..
Kellogg modestly disclaimed any cred
1t to his own ability as campaigner.
LawIer Named by Democrats.
Daniel w. Lawler of St. Paul will
be Mr.. Kellogg's opponent at the cleo
ton next fall. Mr.. Lawler led in the
Democratic returns of 1,42l precincts
out Of 1920 in the state by a vote of
1924 against 1897 for A. J. Davis of
Minneapolis. However, the Republic
an nomination for senator in Mime
sofa always has been equivalent to
election.
From the very beginning of the re-
turns Governor Burnquist led Samuel
G. 1verson so far that there was no
doubt of the Governors denomination
Returns show 1902 precincts out of
1920 gave Burnquist 94.793. Iverson
1861.
Frankson for Lieutenant Governor.
Thomas Frankson of St. Paul led
James A. Peterson for the lieutenant
governorship nomination by the Re-
publicans with more than 5000 votes
to spare. Mr.. Frankson, with 1902
precincts reported, had 49,30O against
AZ 1QR for poforc0n or1 81 NJ,
j. A. Gates. This lead practically
dominates Mr. Frankson, it was said.
The Democrats staged the real sur
prise of the election in the nomination
of Thomas P. Dwyer, Minneapolis
"boilermaker," for the governorship
OF the state over the candidacy of
Samuel D. Works, state insurance com.
missioner.
SchaIIer Out Of Running.
Supreme Court Justice Schaller, ap-
pointed by Governor Hammond last fall
to fill out the brief remaining term of
the late Justice p. E. Brown, has a
heavy lead to overcome, if he is to
remain candidate for the position
he now holds. Returns from 1,726
precincts out of 5000 indicated that
he would be out of the running
Against his 1880 votes were 42,9OS
for w. B. Anderson, II SIT for District
Judge James H. Quinn, and 1922 fol-
Kneeland
Congressman Smith Defeated.
Further evidence of the popularity
OF preparedness as a campaign issue
was furnished in negative way in
the candidacy of Congressman George
R. Smith in the Fifth district. Con
gresham Smith, who voted against
the McIIemore resolution i'm Congress
was defeated for the Republican nom
ination by Ernest Lundeen, who had
