Election day dawped brightiy and
it was quite warm all day. It could
not nave been more favorable for get
ting out a full vote, yet there were at
least fifty voters in this precinct who
did not get to the polls. Up to noon
here had been but 8 votes cast but
the people appeared to feel more like
v ting after dinner and when tbe polis
cged 114 ballots had been deposited.
It would be a hard matter to deter
mine the political complexrion of Holly
precinct from the yote cast last lues
-lay. Very few straight party tickets
were voted, and resalted in giving a
majority for five of the demecratic can
didates and two of tue republicans.
Every candidate receiving a majority
in this precinct was elected., 3

ELECTION NEWS.
The result of the eleetion in Colorado
is stiil somewhat in doubt, although the
figures obtainable at present gives
Gabbert, democeratic and people’s party
candidate for jostice of the Fupreme
court, over 1,000 plurality. There are
a few remote counties yet to hear from
but it is hardly probable that the re
turna from these will be strong enough
for Hayt to elect him.
In Kansas nothing definite is known,
but it is claimed that the republicans
have elected Sout of the 13 district
judgzes. The county officers, however
appear to be about evenly divided be
tween the repnblicans and populists,
each party claiming the election of the
greater number,
The election of the republican state
ticket in Ohio is conceded, but the offi

Late reports state, howezer, that even
if their claims are correet, Marc Hanna
will be defeated for the Senate by a

republicans who will unite on some sil
