Facts as to the Vote.

The publication of the official vote
oDf the state at the late election brings
ITO light some interesting facts and
zrobs the Democrats of their only
consolation in their overwhelming
e3efeat. Ever since the result was APP
E9roximately known they have been
eeonsoling themselves with the theory
that 1t was the stay-at-home vote
vvQlaich defeated them and that if they
could only get their vote out at the
NEXT election all would be we'll The
s3f1icial figures show that 3,616 more
votes were polled than at the presi-
zaential election two years ago. AS
compared with the vote of 1892 Peck
received $4,000 less votes this year
athen in '92 and Upham 1914 more
shan were given to John G. Spooner,
This is the first time in the history
~zof the state that there has been an
increased vote at a gubernatorial
selection@over that of the preceding
presidential year. Sometimes the
vote has fallen off one-third and it
always has been many thousands less
,Ehe vote of the state in 1886 was
80, GAG less than in the Blaine-Cleve-
and campaign In 1884, and in 1890,
the famous Bennett law year, there
was a falling off Of IS, $50 from the
vote of 1888. Both parties suffer by
This stay-at-home vote, the greater
portion of which is usually Republi-
can. Allowing that a large proper
zion of the increased Populist vote,
which rose from 9,64O in 1892
ITO 25,913 in 1894, comes from the
Democrats, there is no other way
e3f explaining the large falling off Of
peck,s vote except that many thou
sands of Democrats voted the Repub-
lican ticket. The majority on con-
gressmen of $4,000 only shows that
some Republican converts voted for
Peck for sentimental reasons, while a
lew were fooled by the lies dissent
mated by the Democrats about Major
Bpham. To bring this nearer home,
the vote of Jefferson county is 1873
less than 1892, but the Democratic
vote has fallen off 500 while the Re-
publican vote has increased 321. In
Dodge county the conversion Of
Democrats to Republicanism is even
greater. The Democratic vote falls
of .749 while the Republican in
@creases 769. These figures plainly
sshow that the disguised Democrats
were too mad to stay at home
1They vents to the polls and voted the
Republican ticket and unless political
conditions change greatly in the next
Two years they Will no doubt be
found then, as they have been this
year, in the ranks OF the Republican
party.

AFTER the organs have played out
all of their combinations of figures to
prove the alleged weakness Of Major
Upham as a candidate by the fact
that his tremendous plurality
over Peck was little less than
the plurality for some of
his associates upon the Repub-
lican ticket, the Wisconsin Blue
Book for 1891 will continue to show
that IN 1890 Governor Peck's plural
ity over Governor Hoard was more
than 1000 smaller than that of any
other candidate on the Democratic
ticket, while his plurality was 7,4O9
less than that for Secretary Cunning
ham, and 7,156 less than that for
Treasurer Hummer. By arguments of
his organs Governor Peck was an as
tonishingly weak candidate in 1890
when elected by nearly 10000 plural
ity and an amazingly strong one in
1894 when Major Upham defeated
him by nearly 10000 plurality

Gov. Uplam's Inauguration.

GOV. Uplam'S InauguraTsOn.
They are already talking about
plans for the inauguration of Gov.
Upham wit theintention of making
that event the most notable of it's
kind in the history of Wisconsin.
Four years ago at Gov. Peck's in
augural there was an absence Of ex-
tensive military display such as has
characterized some previous inaug-
urals, such being dispensed with at the
request of the then incoming admin
istration, but IN other respects it
was brilliant affair. At the coming
inaugural there is talk of again hav-
ing a military display ofsome magni-
tude, as peculiarly fitting to the oc-
casion, when the chief executive in
Quoted into Office himselfis a military
man. Moreover, the officers of the
National guard seem anxious to
show off the state troops, which have
made a great development within
recent years, placing Wisconsin in
high rank with other states, since
which time there has been hardly
any opportunity to bring the regi
ments together at celebration or
inspection in anything like their en-
tirety. The whole matter of arrang-
ing the inauguration ceremonies
rests with the outgoing state officers,
who will Of course be guided largely
in their action by the wishes OF the
officers-elect.
Heretofore the inaugural ball on
the evening following the swearing in
of the new officers has lacked greatly
for proper accommodations. 1t has
been the custom to use both The
senate chambers in the capitol build
ing, but they are so small that the
event has always been hardly more
than terrible crush, with an accom-
paniment of torn dresses and faint
ing on the part of women in the stiff
ling atmosphere. A suggestion has
been made regarding the next in
augural ball that has already met
with favor among some Of those who
will be connected with the arrange
ments. 1t Is to secure for the event
if possible the new armory building
at the State university, which is cap
able of accommodating thousands,
and then to turn the arrangem ents
over TO the citizens of Madison, and
let them give the ball in honor of the
occasion, having the state officials
for their guests on that evening. The
idea seems to be to carry out on a
somewhat smaller scale the method
employed on the occasion of the in
auguration Of a president of the Unitid
States, when the residents of Wash
ingtOn appoint a general committee
OF a hundred or more members, from
which are chosen other committees
to take charge Of different parts of
the celebration. Thousands of dol
lars are realized from the sale of
tickets that help to defray the ex-
pense In connection with the next
state Inauguration it has been sug-
gested that the citizens of the capital
city might net considerable sum in
addition to that raised by subcrip-
ton or otherwise by selling at a NOM
inal figure, souvenir tickets to the
ball, thereby being able, if there
should be a turn out of the National
guard, to provide for the troops
while in the city, supply handsome
decorations and make the event
something that would reflect on the
people Of Observation-Disclosures Sen
