Friday Morning. November 10, 1888.
VOTE OF MONTGOMERY COUNTY.

lOIE or MONIUOMEh1 COUNII.
A number of our people are disposed to
take gloomy view of the last election so
far as this county is concerned, and to pre-
dict its speedy transfer TO Republican dom.
ination. There is no ground for these fears,
as an analysis of the vote will show. The
comparison must be made with the vote Of
1884, not that Of 1886, for in the latter year
Col. Baughman's majority was not due to a
large Democratic vote, but to diminished
Republican vote.
The total vote at the recent election was
6,l26, a gain of 1893, or 6s5 per cent. over
that of 1884 OF this gain the Republicans
got 217, or 500 per cent on their vote Of
1884; the Democrats 1877, or per cent; the
Prohibitionists 40, or 52.6 per cent OF the
total vote cast, the Democrats had 53t per
cent; Republicans 4427 per cent; Prohibi.
tionists 231 per cent. The per centages in
1884 were Democratic, 5486; Republican,
1852; Prohibition, 1862. Now it will be
observed that the great bulk of the Repub-
lican gain is in the 18th Election District,
Wheaton. Besides the large number OF Re-
publican office-holders recently registered
there, there is strong evidence that there
was a systematic colonization of colored
voters from the District Of Columbia. Out
side of their gain in Wheaton, the Repub-
lican gain is only 8 1.5 per cent. against A
per cent. for the Democrats. The Demo-
,.,,. ca;,. aaua, d;st a NJ Iraa t,r,,,
the Republicans gain in five districts and
lose in four
But the groundlessness Of the fear that
Montgomery county is likely to become a
Republican county is shown by reference
to 1876 and 1880. The gain in the total
vote of 1880 over 1876 was 674, or 1876 per
cent The Democratic gain was 261, or 81
per cent; the Republican gain Alb, or 1871
per cent; and the county is as solidly
Democratic To. day as it was in 1880. Strange
ly enough, the tariff scare seems to have
afflicted the agricultural districts much more
than the manufacturing centres; but in this
county the difference Of 80 votes cast for
Cleveland in 1884 and 1888, can be readily
accounted for by colonization and the lavish
use Of money. Notwithstanding, we have
cast the largest vote in the history of the
county, the increase being about the usual
Increase IN each quadrennial period. OF
the 5S6 voters who did not vote two thirds
or more are Democrats, and in future cleo.
tons will be heard from. There Is no dan
ger of Republican ascendency In Montgom-
cry county.

Further Light on the object of the
AssassinatiOn.
WENoNA, ILL.,, November 12.-During
the inquest over the victims of the
double tragedy and suicide here this
morning the Coroner this evening OBJ
tanned statement from the domestic,
Sarah Richardson. She said that her
stepfather, Burkhardt, the murderer,
came to the house last night and did his
fiendish work downstairs, then came to
her room and told what he had done,
and after an attempt to ravish her, left
the house. She lay all night, not daring
to give the alarm lest he waylay and
murder her. Apparently the assassin's
motive, aside from revenge and liquor,
was to enable his stepdaughter to come
into possession of sum OF money prom
ised her by the old people, provided she
would stay with them during their life
time. 1t would seem that the murderer
had the crazy idea that with the girl
once in possession of this money it
would be an easy matter for him to Sc
cure it.
