days before final returns from ballot

cations were, however, that the dry

the pink ballots will be delayed be-
cause hundreds of voters failed to vote
on the amendment and the situation
is complicated by the necessity Of

OF artillery horses for Dickev. In.
Moure and possibly Sargent counties
While this is not absolutely definite.
IT is quite probable that a buyer will
be in Oakes sometime during the
fourth week in November.
This article is written with a v;er,
OF letting the farmers know Of this
IN good season, so that those who
have horses that meet the renuire.
ments will at once get them in good
condition. Good horses are often
turned down at a sale of this kind be.
cause they are poor in flesh. Feed
and fatten them up like You would
any other animal
Here are the requirements: The
horse must be absolutely sound and
free from all blemishes. The weieht
must be over 14OO pounds; age be.
tween 5 and 10: sex, gelding, no
mares taken.
For Southern Market
An effort is also being made to in
duce some southern buyers to come
north and purchase our lighter tyne
of horses for the cotton growing
states. II 1t will be possible
to get these buyers here, and oppor.
tunity will be given the farmers to
dispose of their lighter horses which
are drug on the market at the pres.
ent time. By keeping the heavier
mares in the county, the type of
horses produced in the future ought
to more readily meet the market re-
qufrements. The government will nav
5000 for geldings over 140O pounds
and meets all Of the requirements.
But what will the market pay for a
similar animal that weighs 1900 lbs?

Minneapolis, Nov. 7.-Re.election Of
Senator Knute Nelson and Governor
j. A. A. Burnquist, carrying with It q
victory for other republican state can
dtdates, was seen on the face Of in
complete state returns.
Estimates on the Burnquist plural
ity range from 10000 to $4,000, and
D. H. Evans. the Nonpartisan league
candidate, appears to have beaten
Fred E. Wheaton, democratic nomi-
nee, in the race for second place. The
two ran about neck and neck in tho
Twin Cities, but Evans has the bstter
Of the country vote.
Burnquist is leading consistently, as
he did in the primaries. but his .plu.
rality in Hennepin county is reduced.
In Ramsey county the three candi-
dates are running about even, with
Wheaton in the lead at last reports.
Tremendous Campaign Fails.
Senator Nelson has defeated w. g..
Calderwood, the Nonpartisan league
candidate, by nearly 100000 majority,
In spite of tremendous advertising
campaign.
Apparently the Nonpartisans have
elected Herman Mueller, who was on
the ballot as republican nominee for
clerk Of the supreme court. The re-.
publican state committee repudiated
Mueller. ,at the. last minute and threw
its supportssto Lethert, but too late to
focus attention on this race, and Muel-
Ter is leading on returns now in.
Congressional Results.
The only congressional contest
seemingly undecided was in the Third
district, but the latest returns indi-
Gated the reelection of Representative
Charles R. Davis, Republican. The
Democrats reelected their only con-
gressman, G. c. Van Dyke, Of st. Paul,
in the Fourth district. Otherwise the
Republicans swept the state, except in
the Eighth district, where the labor
vote gave w. L. Carss of Proctor q
victory over Representative Clarence
B. Miller of Duluth. Carss ran az an
Independent candidate.
Ramsey Goes to Wheaton.
6OV0IAOI 0uFu4uASI u0lU u UlS l0aO
in every congressional district, except
the Fourth, according to early returns.
Wheaton, the Democratic nominee,
was leading slightly in the Fourth dis
trict, which embraces Ramsey county.
The Governor ran strongest in the
smaller towns. His plurality will be
big in the Tenth congressional district,
comprising part Of Minneapolis.
Indications are that he will have a
larger vote in the First, Second, Sixth
and Eighth districts than were polled
for both his Democratic opponent and
David H. Evans, Tracy, the Farmer
Labor" nominee, indorsed by the Nom
partisan league.
The entire republican state ticket
was elected. The race fer clerk Of
the supreme court is close, Charles
Lethert, democrat, giving Herman
Mueller, Nonpartisan league candi-
date, repudiated by the republicans,
tight race.
Attorney General Clifford L. Hilton
appears an easy winner, despite
doubts created in the minds of his
friends when he ran behind the ticket
