SEYMOUR, Ind, April Ill so a. m.-
Returns from the election in this county
to-day are coming in slowly, but at this
hour they show, from five out of eleven
townships, that Stockslager has probably
carried the county by a small majority.
This city, the home Of Jason Brown, only
gives him a majority OF 265. Browns
friends have gone home acknowledging that
their candidate is defeated.
The vote polled was light, only 675 in this
(Jackson) township, against SAT two years
ago. Stockslager never expected to defeat
Jason in his own county. From Brownstown
tonight comes the report that Stockslager
swept things there, and the result will prob
ably be close. Tomorrow the primaries
take place in Stockslagers own county
Harrison-which he will carry solid. If he
has carried this county to-day he will have
ten more votes than enough to nominate
him. without any from Jennings or Jeffer-
son. The Democrats, to-day, also held their
primaries for the selection of delegates TO
the senatorial convention and to nominate
county and township tickets.

Of whom is postmaster, and the other is a
candidate for the Legislature, dependent
for a nomination on the Brown clans in
Clark, Scott and Jennings counties. The
masses of the people are against Brown
and the Democratic bosses are for him. The
leader of the Stockslager men is George
F. Lawrence, Democratic candidate for cir
cult judge, and James II. Wilson, candidate
for auditor in this county. The selection
of delegates will be made by Democratic
township mass conventions which will be
likely to select several Stockslager dele
gates.

Republican ticket will have walkover.
