THE SHERIFF CONTROVERSY
How the Contest Looks to Some
Men at Present.

The friends of Rev. S. F. Pearson who
is the Prohibition candidate for sheriff
are coming out OF the woods. Yesterday
at the Pearson headquarters Secretary
Bragdon was up to his ears in work.
He is confident of Mr.. Pearson's success
as is Mr.. Pearson himself. From this
time out Pearson managers say that
there VIII be speaking every afternoon
and evening in some part of the county.
Mr.. Pearson spoke at Scarboro last night
and Rev. e: S. J. McAliister and E. S.
Fossett speak at Yarmouth Saturday
night.
The Republican managers say that
there is no doubt about Mr.. Despeaux's
election but they are not neglecting any
opportunities to make it certain. One
man whom a PRESS reporter saw yester-
day said that Mr.. Pearson had four
thousand personal pledges right here in
Portland. OF this number, so the man
said, twenty-five per cent were not
counted upon to vote as they have talked.
The rest he believed would vote for the
Prohibition candidate and he said that
Pearson's chances were much better to-
day than are those of Despeaux.
The Democrats are viewing the condi
tions with i'll concealed delight. One of
them figured the situation up for a
PRESS reporter in this way:
1.-The normal Republican vote In this
county is about eight thousand. 1t can
not be safely reokoned at more than that
and may be some less. The normalTDem-
ocratic vote is about 5, 500 and it will be
more than this if anything this year be-
caCse the Democrats are doing more
work. The normal Prohibition vote Is
about ole thousand. You see Despeaux
has only twenty-five hundred votes to
spare at the outside. Two years ago he
didn't have two thousand to spare.
'Now 1 have figured this thing out
and my observation is that one out of ev-
cry four Republicans in Portland will
vote Tor Pearson. don't believe that a
larger per centage than this can be reck-
oned upon. Barton, the Democratic
candidate for sheriff, will lose some
votes here in Portland to Pearson but he
will gain what ne loses here fromEthe Re-
publicans in the northern part OF the
country. Now il Despeaux loses twenty
five hundred votes he will have only ff-
ty-five hundred Barton has 5000 votes to
start with and he will gain enough to
make his vote about 5, 500. So you see it
will be, according to my figuring, a
mighty close shave for Despeaux and
knowing the feeling in the county as
do l think Despeaux will be defeated.
