KAYSvILLE. Nov. S.-Davis county
has maintained her record as a Demo-
cratic stronghold. A heavy vote was
polled in all parts of the county. OF
the 1925 persons registered in the
county, 2,191 cast their ballots. This
was the total vote for presidential
candidates, and of these Bryan received
LAO and Mckinley 451. Such victory
for the silver cause was not antici-
pated, although some sanguine
ones had predicted that Bryan's major
ity would exceed 1000.
King was given TAI plurality over
Eolbrook and 662 majority over Foster
and Holbrook.
Mrs. Clark, for state senator. ran far
behind her ticket, and Aquila Nebeker
was given a majority Of S41. Their vote
stood 566 to 1.407.

ing victory for representative in the
state legislature. He received 1926
votes; H. w. Haight CRep), 65O, and G..
W Kendall CPop), 112.

Recorder-David Thomas.
County Attorney >. Wiley jr.
Clerk-Thomas H i4.nlips.
AssesSor-Israel Barlow jr.
Treasurer-Henry H. Blood
Surveyor-John L. FackreN.
The only grain of comfort left to Re
publicans so far as local officers are
concerned is that they elected one con-
stable, William Watt of Layton pre-
=. let. He won by a majority of 8. Lay
ton is a Republican stronghold, but the
Democrats succeeded in electing their
precinct justice, Mr.. a. B. Cook, whose

count for his success.
