Sheriff, Superintendent of Schools, Coroner and Surveyor Given To Our Friends, Tne Enemy. Commissioners Break Even—Everton, Fuller, Rellis, Leeman and Myers Are Elected. Fourth dist.—W V Fuller. Fifth dist.—C E Leeman. Complete returns for Itasca county leads all the rest up Salt Creek with a | defeat that foots up more than 2 to 1. Farrell made a splendid campaign and considering his opponent’s weak- ness the auditor-elect’s majority is not surprising in the least. C. C. Miller vanquished his oppon,- ent, A. A, Kremer with a majority of 140, with two precints still out. Mil- ler is well known and extremely popular, but the. fight for this office was regarded asivery uncertain as to the outco me until the ~Magnet-undertook iv malign. the Democratic nominee. Public sentment revolted against such tactics and the result is all too apparent. A. B. Clair’s magnificent endorse- ment for re-election to the office of register of deeds is a fitting tribute to his worth asa public official. His majority is now 153 and will very likely reach 175. The bitter and maglignant opposition to his candi- dacy as itappeared through the columns of the Magnet, accounts for his phenominal run ag@inst a strong opponent. Mr. Clair has been twice pitted against popular men and he .| has reason to feel exceedingly proud | _ of the result in both instances. Attorney J. R. Donohue even sur- prised himself with the strength which he developed at the polls against At- torney Pratt. Mr. Donohue 1s a comparative stranger in this county, but his frends hustled hard for his success and he went in on the tidal wave with a clear plurality of 161. It is said that if Mr. Pratt had given a greater amount of time and attention to his own interests and had not labored so incessantly for his friends the tally sheet might show quite a different footing. However this may be Itasca county is sure to have the services of an able and conscientious attorney during the next two years. T.M. Brady pulls out for judge of probate with a majority of 75 votes over E. A. Arnold. Oscar Toombs, independent, received 177 votes for the office. ‘The outcome in the contest for sheriff was something of a surprise to except two precints, Ray and Koo- chiching, have been delivered to the county auditor. The official court will not change the result of Tues- day’s election as given above. The majorities are so large that the full vote either way, to come in from Ray and Koochiching, could not effect any but superinteneent. of schools. Mrs. Stilson’s majority 1s only ro, but re- ports from Rainy Lake precints indi- cate that her majority will be consid- erably increased, rather than dimin- ished. As predicted in these columns durng the campaign H.R. King the friends of Phil Caselberg, Demo- cratic nominee. Mr. Caselbefg was regarded as an unusually strong man and the opinion of politicians was that the majority of either Mr. Tyn- | dall or Caselberg would be very small, The vote shows that Tyndall’s major- ity is 203—second only to the big vote given to Mr. Farrell. - J. A. Brown was elected surveyor over Al Phillips by a majority of 177. M. Perreault announced some days before his election that he did not de- sire the office of coroner and request- ed nis friends to vote for Dr. Storch. The doctor was elected by a vote of 663 to 270—~so Mr. Perreault and Dr. Storch are both pleased. The county commissioners-elect, and as the next board will be constituted is as follows: Everton from First, Myers from the Second, Rellis from Third, Fuller from the Fourth and Leeman from the Fifth. There will be no contests unless A, E. Wilder, the present representative on the board from the Second should con- clude to serve out his full term of four years. The change of districts brought up the question as to whether Wilder would hold over or again submit to a vote of the people. He has been defeated by Myers: and itis not unlikely that the result of Tuesday’s election will end the con- troversy. In order, however, to de- termine the legality of the board, Mr. Wilder must either resign or submit the matter to the courts for final de- cision. In the case of a resignation it would then be necessary to have Mr. Myers appointed by the proper authorities. ‘lhis question, in any event, will not be a difficult one legally determine. THE FIFTY-SECOND. McCarthy Leads The Legislative Ticket In This District. Returns that can be relied upon from the counties of Itasca, Cass, Carlton and Aitkin—constituting the Fifty-second legislative district—show that the Republican nominees have been elected by the usual majorities, with C, C. McCarthy considerably in the lead. Kearney made gains in this county and ran ahead of his ticket, but in the absence of any work in the other counties -he barely held his own. Kelley, of Cass, also re- ceived a handsome endorsement, con- sidering. the large Republican vote polled there. Skemp, the Democrat nominee for the senate, did not do as well as was looked for in his home county, Carlton. McCarhy’s majority in the district will be about 1,500, while Mauston and Lynds, Repubh- can candidates for the house, will each have majorities of about 1,300. Mr. McCarthy is to be congratulated up- on the handsome endorsement given him by his neighbors of Itasca coun- ty. The vote stands: McCarthy, 667; Skemp, 337- Ladies of the Catholic Union will hold a business meeting with Mrs. K. C. Lent on Thursday next. Lunch will be served for which 5 cents will be charged. All Cathollc ladies of the village are earnestly re- quested to be present, as matters in which they are interested will be con- sidered. Hereafter meetings will be held every week, a passer } PASSING OF THE MACHINE Lieut. John Lind is Elected Governor By 18,000 Majority. THE PEOPLE DECLARE FOR REFORM First Time In Forty Years Minnesota Elects a Democratic Governor. ’ The Gubernatorial Candidate Is the Only Democrat Elected On The State Ticket. But This Insures the Purging of The State Capitol of The Nest of Sharks That There Abound. The Farmers Voted For Lind to Get Rid of Clausen From the State Grain Inspection Bureau. Lumbermen Voted To the End That Surveyors of Logs Brown, Et Al., Be Given Vacation of Office. Laborers Generally Protested Against. The Retention In Office of Labor Commissioner Powers. Depositors In State Banks and Share- holders in Loan Associations W ent After Examiner Kenyon’s Scalp. And 128,000 Voters Demanded For An Honest Administration of State Affairs—By Lind. The Legislature is Overwhelmingly Republican, Insuring Senator Davis’ Re-election. Minnesota has at last partially re-| must rest with the Republican law- deemed herself from the hold of Republican machine rule by electing Honest John Lind governor of the state by a majority that will reach perhaps 20,000 when the votes are all counted, Eustis has been justly re- buked, together with the crowd that backed him. It was evident from the start that the Republican nominee was not even the choice of his own party, and it has been clearly demon- strated that he was not the choice of the people. It is to be regretted that Lind will go into office without a legislature in harmony with the re- forms that he is pledged to s&ipport as an executive. However, if the reform platiorm is not carried out the blame 5 ete makers and not with the executive. A wedge has been entered in the backbone of the Republican ring that the people will continue to drive un-_ til it is burst asunder, John Lind will at least clean out the gang that now infests the state capitol and sub- stitute a class of men who will have regard for the rights of the people. ° Invitations wil soon be out for a Thanksgiving party at the Village hall to be given by the members of Wabana lodge, Knights of Pythias.
