The Figures Compared
from weston Independent.l

In letter which Judge John A.
Campbell is sending over this district
be uses this sentence: 81 believe a
careful comparison of the vote Of 1895
and 1898 will show Mr.. Dovencr to be a
weak candidate" Now let's take the
Judges chief campaign proposition
seriously, comparing the vote as he re-
quests and thoroughly Analysing 1t.
Judge Campbell calls attenticntothe
fact that Captain Dovener's majority
in 1898 was reduced as compared with
that of 1896. In1s9S, it being an off
year. it will be remembered that, on
the whole, the Republican majorities
generally in this section were reduced,
the majority inthe House of Repre-
sentatives itself having been reduced
from SO over all opposition to ID. 1t
will be recalled that the Republican
majority in this state, based on the
congressional votes OF '96and '9S,was re-
duced 10 or IS per cent-from more
than II, 900 in 1895 to less than $500 In
1898.
Capt. Dovener was renominated in
1892. Then as now Judge Campbell
was going up and down the district
pointing out the weakness Of a Con-
gresham for reelection and urging for
his own particular benefit, the new
candidate idea. Now we are going to
compare some Of these figures even far
taer than may serve the Judges pur-
,se. and we call his attention to the
ras,,lts In the mast, kindly spirit, be
