The Republicans are trying to draw
little comfort, though they are buried un-
der $4,000 majority, out Of the fact that at
some presidential election more votes were
cast than this year, aud they would have
people believe that all the absentees were
Republicans.
The vote which elects Gov Taylor is not
as large as the presidential vote Of the
State, either in 1868 or 1872, but it is the
largest ever cast at a state election in Wis
cousiu. Ii is $1,000 larger than when
Fairehild and Hobart were candidates in
1855 Is $4,000 larger than when Fair
child and Talmadge were candidates IN
1867; is 5000 larger than when Fairchild
and Robinson were candidates in 1869,
aud is considerably larger than when Wash
burn and Dooittle were candidates in 1871.
Gov. Taylors vote is larger by some
thousands than was ever cast for candi
date for any state Office. II is at leas
5000 larger than that received by Wash
burn himself when he was elected owe
Doolittle two yearssago.
