all OF the returns are in and the
official count will not deviate from the
figures In the table below. The re-
turns received by the Helena Capital
committee up TO a late hour last night
gave Helena a majority OF 1,03s. There
are 10S small precincts yet TO be heard
from. They will scarcely poll 1000
votes. Careful estimate of their re-
turns will bring Helenas majority up
to the figure given above. This esti-
mate allows for shrinkage of vote from
registration, and for the fullest vote
for Anaconda In the precincts where
that city may by the widest stretch
Of the imagination be supposed to have
any strength. There are hardly two
precincts unheard from that have as
high a vote as seventy-five. so that the
possibility OF landslide that would
keep Helena from getting the majority
estimated in the table is reducd to a
minimum.
The following table Is made up OF
semi-oficial and estimated majorities
in the several counties for Helena and
Anaconda.
