The Result.

Inc Oattle Is over. JtIIclo sun NO"h
ty has given heavier republican ma
jorities than before for years. Only
two small precincts are yet to hear
from, and they will not materially
change the result. Brents has 50
majority, SO far, where Burke had Il
majority of 8 or 10 two years ago
The republican Legislative ticket is
decidedly ahead, Kerr leading Nc
Reavy II votes and Callow leading
Kuhn 8 votes. For Auditor, Seav,y
is ahead of Harry Tibbals "a votes,
For Treasurer, Frank Bartlett leads
r. c. Hill IS votes. For Probate
Judge, Van Bokkeien leads ID. W.
Smith 147 votes, the latter having
polled but 1l9 votes altogether, 50
far. For Commissioners, the vote
stands: Attridge, 2l3; Jas Smith, 225:
A. A. Plummer, jr., 1911; Bishop, lSo;
Payne, IT'S; James, 157; H. l.. lib
balls, sr., AZ. The first three named
of the foregoing are the regular re-
publican nominees, and their election
is assured beyond q reasonable doubt.
For Surveyor, the race is close be
tween Fortman, reps.and Blakeslee,
dem, with chances in favor Of the
former. Thus it will be seen that
nearly the whole ticket has been car
ried by the regular republicans
against democrats and soreheads
combined. For Sheriff, Sheehan,
DEM, leads Littlefeld, rep, 45 votes.
Strong pleas were used-that Little
field was holding lucrative govern
ment position and had been for years
past; that Sheehan was an old and
worthy citizen who had large fam
lily on his hands, &C. Mr.. Sheehan
will very probably prove an efficient
officer. We hope so, at least He
has the credit of defeating popular
and worthy opponent AS to School
SuperinI endent, the returns are only
partially in. Enough is known, how
ever, to place Mr. Collins majority at
about 80, so far, and he is undoubted-
ly elected His majority in Port Dis
covery was 81, that being the only
precinct carried by him as far as
heard from. Mr.. Collins is a very
estimable and capable gentleman,
above reproach, and of course the
mill hands, with whom he worked
stood by him almost to man Added
to this the plea was urged that he
was poor as well as deserving; that
he had large family; that Weir had
a "custom house billet" etc. The
new Superintendent has our best
wishes for satisfactory and success
full term. For Coroner, but little is
known, though Ginger, dem, has
thus far 15 votes more than Hoxsie,
rep. Capt. Hastings, rep, leads Capt.
Dalgardno, DEM, for Wreckmaster,
70 votes, and is of course elected. in
this precinct Messrs. Van Bokkelen
and Swan, both republicans, are
elected Justices of the Peace,
by the following vote: Van
Bokkelen, 14S; Swan, 100; Ginger,
S2 Mr.. Finn is our next Constable,
having been on both tickets. For
Prosecuting Attorney, Mr. Bradshaw
polled nearly the entire vote of the
county, irrespective OF party.
One thing specially noticeable in
the result is the complete rout Of the
so-called independents" D. w.
Smith was rightly considered the in
stigator and mainspringof this move
ment, and his humiliating dofeat
shows the estimation the public places
upon such conduct; or, rather, that
democrats as rule would not sup
port republican who was merely
seeking their votes, even though nom
mated by their convention.
IT is thought that the present re
