county ticket Is elected by about LOO
plurality The plurality of John Davis i:
about l. 200, which justified The prophecy
made by this paper last week, that BIZ

vote is about so on Overmeyer, but the
Democrats claim that Were it not for il

Longs majority in the county is 352, but
the official count may change it few

TIL official count will be made tomorrow

Harmon for county commissioner and
Rohrbaugh for represen tatIve are both
elected by coo plurality. Mr.. Lawrence
Tor representative was elected over Ruble
by majority of at least 800. In this dis
trlct the Democratic Candidate withdrew
ana 1t was thought that Democrats would
vote for Ruble, but they did not.
In the entire Republican ticket, includ-
ing state. district. county and local dis
trlcis, every man was elected but Xeller in

Change what seems 10 be the result.
The Democrats seem to take defeat
philosophically. Many OF them seem 10 be
glad over the result. The ones that are
sore are those who voted with the Pop<.
They argued before the election hat by
supporting the Democratic ticket they
were throwing their votes away, and now
they are sad he their votes We're
