FACTS ABOUT THE ELECTION
Peek Runs Ahead of His Ticket. as
Well as Hoard on the
Other.
The Total Vote This Fall as Large as
1t Usually Is in an OF
Year.
Democratic Plurality Nearly 10000.
With Milwaukee aud Other Coun.
ties to Hear From.

Col. Henry Cassou has prepared a com.
parative table showing the results of the
election so far as heard from by counties.
Returns have been received from all coun-
ties in the state, ext sgt Ashland, Clark,
Columbia, Douglas, Lincoln, Milwaukee,
Shawano and Wood. These figures give
the following results: Peck. l2l.lSO;
Hoard, lOl,+1S; Jonas, llS,50l: Treat,
%, 70S, Peck gets 2,629 more votes than
Jonas. ana Hoard has $40 more than
Treat. Mr.. Peck's vote exceeds that Of
Mr.. Hoard to the extent of I9, ,667.
Unoth1ial returns from the eight coun-
ties not contained in the above show an
additional plurality for Peck Of 7,7SS,
which would make the plurality in the
state 27,4+5.
These figures are causing a great deal of
speculation, because of the fact that both
! candidates for governor got moro votes
than the gentlemen following them on the
ticket At the governors Office the theory
| Is that numerous democrats voted Tor Gov
| Hoard and the balance of the democratic
ticket, while 4 lesser number Of repub-
hcan LutheranS substituted Mr.. Peck
for MIR. Hoard on their repubH-
dan tickets. Various other theories
are ahoat, the democrats one being thai
more republicans than democrats were
ignorant of the law. and that therefore
large number of them merely placed a
cross after their choice for governor
SuppoSing it carried all the other nomi-
neeS.
1t may be stated now that the total
vote this year will be about 2SO.O 900.
against 33l ,ll9 cast for governor in 1893.
But an examination of the returns in
other years shows that $4,000 is very
full vote for a guhernatorial year For
example, in 1879, the total vote thrown
for the democratic and republican caud,-
dates was 1868; in 1880, only ISL. .55l;
in 1884, a presidential year, it jumped up
to 307, l59 for governor, an Increase of
I55, SOS; in 1886 it fell back to 247.776,
decrease of 50, ,3S3; in 1888, another pres
idential year, it again increased to 33l, Il9,
while this year it again falls off about
5l,119, or 5000 less than was the falling
off in 1886.
The counties heard from to date give
Peck 12l, ,l30, while these same counties
i'll 1888 gave Morgan I26.l34. They give
Hoard l0l, ,437 this year, while two years
ago he got l40, 2O9. This shows conclu-
sively that there was a great stay-at-home
democratic vote as we'll as republican; and
if one deducts the republicans who are
known to have voted the democratic ticket
it will be seen That more democrats than
republicans remained at home.

an old battle flag worn thin and pierced
by many holes. The story of the flag
was told by Capt. Harrison: when the
war first broke out" he said, 81 was a
boy of II and was living in Barlow coun-
ty. There were a number of boys of my
own age who were anxious to join the
army. These boys organized into a com
pany, and we called ourselves the Bar
tow cadets. When, however, the time
came for us TO go to the front, many of
the boys parents would not let them go
because they were so young. had thir-
ty-fve left, however, and with these l
meant to report for duty.

older men had been formed, under the
command of Capt. Redding. They were
called the Stewart Guards. ! %consol-

way Miss Florida Fort, who is now
Mrs. William A. Rawson, made the flag
and presented it to us. Gen. Clement A.
Evans was offered the position of major
Of the Th~irty-frst Georgia regiment if he
could bring two companies into the
service. He took our company for one
and raised another, but We were still
known as the Barlow guards, and car
ried this flag, which had been presented
to me az our company colors, until the
Confederate battle flag was adopted,
then sent it home to my mother, and she
