st. Paul-With only 1853 out OF the
3.220 precincts in the state missing, the
lead OF J. A. o. Preus. governor-elect
over DIR. Henrik Shipstead, Townley
candidate, now is 132.267.
The constant increase OF the Preus
lead has been one OF the striking fea-
lures In the gathering OF returns In
last Tuesdays election. The Shlpstead
managers have been hoping for some
real Shipstead strength to develop. but
It did not show UP, and the precincts
yet to report are all small ones.
The vote In 3.067 precincts Is:
Preus. 394.390: Shipstead. 262.l23:
Hodgson. 77.475
Indications are that the total vote In
Minnesota will run above 750. 900 Rosy
estimates had placed the possible total
at 100000. and II really was not ex-
pected that II would pass $4,000.
The Harding lead over Cox In Min.
nesota Is 357.523 in 3,040 out Of the
$3.50 precincts. II Is believed that IN
proportion to population this Is the
largest vote given by any state to the
