Special. lf There waa a terrific political explosion here today, being a refuU on the pert of County Commissioners at Butte to continue their work as a ranvamlng board, with the result that 11 predncta are still uncounted. With a Senatorial toga as the stake, the Hght for control of the Montana Legislature will begin at once In the numerous counties where the vote waa close and be waged until a Senator Is elected. To forestall an Injunction, the Clerk of Sweetgrass County made a midnight trip to the county aeat last night and Issued a certification of election to the IemoeratIc Representative, who haa a plurality ot 11 on the face of the re turns. Both big political parties are aroused to a fever pitch as a result The Demo crats openly aswert that the Republicans have bourht the Commissioners and In duced them to leave the slate, so that the most populous county In the state will he unrepresented In the Legislature. On the other band, the Republlcane charge that the Commissioners, who are lemocrata. have refused to go on be cause the returns will enow that more Republicans have been elected than the unofficial returns show, and therefore their election would give the Jotnt aa sembly to the Republicans by seven or elRht plurality. It Is reported that one of the Commis sioners la sick and that two othera have gone to Chicago. These and other serious rhargea are being bandied forth and back and serve further to bemuddle the most complex situation In the atate'a history. Men who ordinarily face r,o!ltlcal sit uations with calm and dignity are shout ing revolutionary words, while others are disposed to believe that the affair will straiKhten Itself out In a day or two. No effio;al returns from the several disputed counties were announced today, with the result that both aldea are atlll claiming Uie Legislature on Joint ballot. The Republican candidate In Custer Counly made strong gains, according to unofficial reports today, and that county Is now said to be sure of electing a Car ter man.
