ELECTION RETURNS
STILL COMING IN
Millard Still In Lead, Ray Second,
Kelly High Place For the Low
er Houale.
The return;® from westward pre
cincts have pulled Ray up to aceond '
place and he Is gaining all the time
us most all the country at ill to be
heard from is territory conoeeded to
be Ray strongholds.
The fight between Millard and Bal
dwin 4s isitlill In doubt but Millard has
the lead by forty-seven votes. It is
not known to what erttcnt the cabled
reports, "Millard favors Pinchotism"
will effect the vote. Unga, Seldovtfa,
SusLtna and several other westward
precincts remain to be heard from.
Ivelly as was expected overtook,
and parsed Gary and is now iln the
lead by 19 votes, his total is 749,
Cray has 730. Ingram 693, Boyle 605
and Youngs 527. Ingram leads Boyle
by 88 votes and Boyle has a lead of
78 over Youngs. Youngs is is ex
pected will pick up w^ien the Inlet
returns come in but it is hardly to |
be expected that he can overcome th
lead Boyle and Ingram now have.
The returns from Latouclie was a
'surprioe (to many and ,bt is stated
that the men voted for Millard becaue
he worked his men only eight hours
and the working day a,j the Reatson
Mine J's ten hciuns.
The judges of election at Ellamar
have certified all the returns as- for
senators, instead of certifying that
Ingram, Boyle and Gray etc. had re
ceived so many votes for representa
live- they certified that they hud re
ceived so many for senator. It is
not known what the convassing hoard
will do in this matter but in the
last two delegate elections they havo
held to the M|trr of the law.
