Gen Drake elected governor in Iowa Republicans win large margin
Widespread Republican gains produce Gen Francis Marion Drake as governor with about 61 225 votes and a solid Senate and House majority. Prohibitionist and Populist totals fall while Republican strength grows across counties. The next legislature will likely favor resubmission of the prohibitory amendment with a Republican tilt in both chambers.
