ALL ON TICKET.

u the vote OF Brown County is any
criterion for the balance Of the state
thensit goes without question that all the
convention endorsed candidates on the
Republican state ticket will be nominated
by an overwhelming vote. The strength
LOT the so-called Progressive element in
the Republican party apparently failed
to materialize. From, early returns re-
ceived ct State headquarters, it would
seem that the only candidate for q state
Office endorsed by the Republican state
convention who may lose out is Miss
Grace Kaercher Of Ortonville, who is a
candidate for Clerk Of the Supreme
Court.
r The Democratic vote in the State was
OF g negligible quantity and from the re-
tu,ns thus far received it would seen as
though Mrs. Anna Olesen would win out
for the Democratic nomination for the
United States Senate and Indrehus for
Governor on the Demo ocratic ticket.
Un,ess Congressman G. R. Davis
shows greater strength in the rural COM
munities that have not reported, his de
feat by Rueben Thoreen Of Saltwater is
9 foregone conclusion.
IN most Of the voting precincts in the
County an exceptionally large vote was
cast for primary election. With some
voting p ecincts still to hear from, it is
quite apparent that Henry ]. Berg and
Otto Triton will oppose each other in the
fall election for County Treasurer. In
the contest for sheriff quite number Of
the contestants failed to receive the vote
which they had reasonably anticipated.
Complete returns will no doubt place
VIM. j. Julius and John Reitter as the
successful candidates for the fall election.
Fred Christensen for Register Of Deeds
will be one of the contestants and his
opponent in the fall election no doubt
will be William Smasal of Sleepy Eye.
For County Attorney T. Eekstein, the
present sincumb bent, iss assured . placeson
the ticket from the returps 50 far re-
ceived and his opponent will proba ably be
Geo 10. Erickson.
b For Senator Frank T. Romberg, the
present incumbent developed consider
able strength in his home county and if
The receives q fair vote iii Redwood Coun-
1tyIhe Wil1be assured Of rem nomination for
1.-The fall election B. G. Schueller mani
tested q good deal Of popularity in New
1Ulm and in some Of the other voting
precincts and if he receives a good vote
/ in Redwood County he may besable to
displace Judge Dolliff Of Redwood Falls
for the. second place on the ticket.
Greatest interest was shown in the
various county commissioner contests.
Dan Mecklenberg developed consider
able strength in the town Of Milford but
this was not sufficient to overcome the
vote received by Theo. Mueller and
Rudolph Marti Of New Ulm and they
will be the opposing candidates for the
fall election in the third commissioner
district. sss.3ss S,
Christ Roland will be one Of the CON
testants for this office. IN The second
district in the fall campaign From the
incomplete returns it would seem that
John N. Johnson, the present incumbent
would be Mr.. Roland s running oppo-
nent. s..s 4. ..' &.
From the returns thus far received at
the County Auditors Office it would
seem as though Henry S. Romberg and
Charles Palmer would be the opposing
candidates for the Office Of County Com
missioner Of the fourth district.
The votes in some Of the towns were
surprising in a way. For instance, in the
Town Of Cottonwood where there isn't a
