The vote for County Clerk has been
uncomfortably close for both the Repub.
lican and workingmen's candidates, and
consequently developed more excite.
msnt than has attached to any other
municipal candidates. Up to Monday
Stuart and Freud each claimed a
slight majority, but semi.ofacial figures
OF Registrar Kaplan, which gives Stuart
q majority OF 3l3, virtually decide the
election OF the latter. The largest ma
jority obtained by any single candidate
on the municipal ticket was that Of
Alexander Badlam, who received o ma.
jority OF 3f13 over Wilson, the Work.
ingmen's candidate.
There is considerable doubt as 10 how
many Republican Supervisors are elect.
ed, ten. eleven and o full Board being
given. Registrar Ksplsn inclines to the
belief that the Republicans have elected
all the Supervisors and School Direc.
tors.
The vail OF uncertainty Is also thrown
over the offices Of Tax Collector, Recor.
der and Police Judge, though the Work.
ingmen conceds that their candidate for
the latter ofice Is defeated. It is certain
that the question as to the successful
candidates for the several Offices named
cannot be accurately determined save by
the official count.
The Workingmen assert that they pos.
sess positive knowledge OF many in.
stances Of illegal proceedings In the
manner Of counting the ballots In the
different precinct polling places, aud the
probability OF q recount 10 by no means
q remote one. j. Il. Freud, the candi.
date for County Clerk, Is particularly
active In procuring concerted action on
the part Of all the defeated candidates to
mako each ono bear q proportionate
share OF the expense. W. N. Haley and
G. Grossman, candidates for Street and
School Superintendsnts respectively,
second this movement. a. n. Moore.
the candidate for Police Judge, alone
declares himself satisfied with the result.
and says that Sunday night was the first
night in which be enjoyed q good rest
since his nomination. Decisive action
will certainly bs taken. as to the line Of
action to be adopted, as soon as the
definite result Of the canvass BY the Reg.
istrar IL determined. Meanwhile the
Workingmen are determined that tho
ballots and returns In the Registrars
office at the new City Hall shall not be
tempered with. and according have put
O watch on the safe containing them.
The returns from the State at large,
90 far as compiled give Perkins for Gov.
u q plurality Of 1926 votes out Of
q total vote heard from Of 139, sos.
The vote OF the Third Congressional
District, with the additional returns re-
csived. give McKenna (R.) $50 majority
over Berry (D.). Full returns may re.
duce this majority, though the proba-
bilities are that the Republican candidate
has been successful In the race.
The returns OF the vote for Chief Jus.
tice Of the Supreme Court fall several
thousand behind the total received Of
the votes for Governor. Up 10 this time
the total for candidates for that Office
foots up 1881, Of which Morrison
has 81. 1858. Rhodes 1888 and Bennett
1915. Morrison's plurality. 1850.
