mentary Votes. LOngstreet's Big
Success.

Lackawanna county and Scranton
city contribute their share to the gen.
eral cause for Republican rejoicing.
The whole Republican ticket, state and
county, was given a handsome vote,
some Of the majorities being remark
able considering the fact that the vot-
ing was very light even for an Off year.
At midnight the returns from 105 dis
tricts gave Haywood majority of 2S42,
and indicated Judge Willard to be 1910
votes ahead of his ticket, Judge Rice
1900 and =. p. Smith 2099. Mr.. Bartl
was less than 100 votes behind his
ticket, but had 800 majority; DR.. Long
With the 1O5 districts heard from and
careful estimates by experts Of the
sixty-nine unheard from districts Hay
wood carried the county by $500 MAJOR
ity. Willard ran 1000 ahead of his
ticket, Rice received a neighborly COM
pliment of 1900 votes and Smith was
given about 1000 more votes than the
head of his ticket. DIR. Longstreet Is
elected by 1000 majority and Engineer
Bartl has a safe majority Of from 800
to 1900.
Only Grain Of Consolation.
The only grain of consolation that the
Democrats can get out Of the days re-
suits is that Judge Smith is probably
nyA &aI AN Ia fkn
Superior bench. The very limited re-
turns from over the state would indi-
cate that the fight for the seventh place
was between Smith and Yerkes, with
the chances in favor of Smith.
The county polled only about $1,000
votes, and the city, which can easily
muster 10000 votes, recorded only
about 1000. OF this amount Haywood
received about 4,50O and Myers $500,
all of whi;rl makes very cheerful out
look for the spring elections. Car
'bondale was carried by both Long
street and Dartl, and Dununore went
Republican for the head Of the
ticket and judges. For the first
time in its history Olyphant went
Republican by 40 votes, Hay
wood receiving 1874 and Myers IA.
The work of Hon. Charles p. O'Malley's
friends In this town was apparent by
THE 29S votes which were cast for Judge
willard there
One instance cf tine small vote cast
is given In the Third district of the
Nineteenth ward, where only 81 Of the
400 voters exercised their right of suf-
frage.
In the city Willard received 1922 Of
the 1000 votes cast, and Smith got
$685.
In the Republican Club Rooms.
The rooms of the Central Republican
club In the Price building were filled
with hustle, activity, felicitation and
shouts until several hours after
most of the city was still in slumber.
It was happy gathering, especially af-
ter 1890 o'clock, when began to be re-
ceived returns from country districts,
indicating that the Republican ticket
was safe in this county from top to bot
tom.
There were several special causes for
qualification. Edmund Bartl, the can
didate for county surveyor, sat at a
table with two clerks and kept tabs on
the returns and their figures at 11.3O
o'clock showed that Mr.. Bartl would be
electe. by from 800 to 1900 mapority,
notwithstanding the cutting he re-
ceived in certain districts on account of
the A. p. A. bugaboo.
DIR. Samuel p. Longstreet, after de-
voting the evening up to II o'clock to
professional business, made his appear
ance and was greeted by a round of
lusty applause.

of the night until 1 o'clock Colonel r. ii.

AT Democratic Headquarters.
The. scene at Democratic headquar-
ters was enough 10 excite sympathy.
At no time during the night was there
more than a bakers dozen around the

dozen chairs, completed the entire furn.
