$50 votes and precinct 20 had 800 votes
deposited in the ballot box. The light
vote cast is a surprise 10 the workers on
both sides and will fall considerably
short Of the figures OF the canvassers
whq estimated that vote OF 1900 would
be polled in this city. While the vote IN
precinct 20 will be increased by the
voters from the railroad shops. which
closed at o'clock. Il Is hardly probable
that the total vote will reach l.lOO.
The city is conceded TO Ferguson, but
hismsjorlty will be much smaller than
his friends have claimed and his Oppon-
ents were willing TO concede a few days
ago.
The bulk Of the straight republican
ticket will carry the city. There has
been more scratching done in this cleo
tion than for years and the returns for
the city cannot possibly be completed
until tomorrow
large number Of democrats are vot-
ing for the whole or part Of the straight
republican county ticket In preference TO
the sorehead republican ticket.
II IL conceded that James A. Summers,
for county clerk, and Thomas s. Hubbell.
for sheriff, will be given the biggest ma
jorities OF any candidates on the straight
ticket, but several other candidates on
the same ticket will also carry the city
by safe majorities.
At the time Of going to press no one
has been arrested for violation Of the
law.
telegram received from L. l.. Henry
at Gallup states that at one o'clock 25s
votes had been pOlled there. This indi-
Gates that the vote there too will fall
considerably short Of the claims made
and the majority against the republican
ticket, will not be as large az was ex
pected.
In old town 256 votes have been cast
and OF this number the democrats do moi
claim over 40.
II Is safe to predict that the entire
straight republican ticket will carry

from 600 to 1900.
