HELENA, Mont, Feb. II. w. A.
Clark, Democrat, came within three
votes Of being elected United States
senator today, and had the adjournment
not been taken after the first ballot he
would have been elected. The Clark
men fully expected to WIN today, and
they only lost byibad leadership on their
side. The ballot resulted: Clark 27,
Mantle %, Dixon and Sanders l. The
Clark vote consisted of five Repub-
licans, one Populist and tWenty-one
Democrats; Mantle's of twenty-five Re-
publicans, Dixon'S of eight Democrats
and one POpulist, aud Sanders of one
Democrat, Tierney. The Clark men
moved for another ballot and the oppo
sition opposed it. On a division there
were thirty for second ballot and
thirty-one against. and there was
where the Clark men lost = their
heads. There were but ffty-nine votes
in the joint assembly, and the two extra
votes on the adjournment came from
members paired. Before the Clark peo-
pie could collect their senses, the lieu
tenant governor declared the joint as
sembly dismissed. All the Dixon men
voted with the Republicans for adjourn
ment.
Had there been a second ballot, one
of the Dixon men and two Republicans
would have voted for Clark, thus select
ing him. Davidson. the sick Dem crat,
was present and voted for Clark. 1t is
recognized among all parties that if
Clark can hold his vote of today together
until Monday, he will be elected. De-
spite the opposition of the Daly-DIXon
Democrats. Clark is sure of an election
not later than Tuesday, and it will re-
quire the strongest kind of combina-
ton between the Republicans and the
Dixon people to defeat him.
1t is conceded on all sides that none
of the Republicans yet mentioned can
be elected now. The Republicans have
gone all to pieces, and there is no one
mentioned on whom they all agree.
They recognize the fact that the only
Republican who can draw Democratic
votes is Mantle, and he cannot get the
Populists; and thus it is impossible to
elect him. Between today and Monday
the Dixon people will do all in their
power to beat down C)ark's lead.
