SAVED -FOUR GOOD MIN
Hungry Democrats GObbled Up
Most of the Offices.
Rogers Took Us In Easy, But
the Fight for County Places
Was Close and Warm.

There are several county democrats who
will soon be swinging full dinner pals as re-
suit OF the election Of Tuesday. The princi-
pals and several expect-tob be deputies al
ready clicking their chops" i'll anticip patton of
the fat they are to revel in.
The republicans saved but four out of the
entire county and legislative tickets, The
democrats rolled the county over to Bryan IN
a way which consoles them slightly for the
terrible drubbing their fallen idol was given
in the nation and state The highest Bryan
400, and the lowest AS. In 1886, however,
Mr.. Bryan carried 1922 votes to the good out
of Whitman; so it is not so bad after all with
his puny little plurality in the second
battle
Governor Rogers walked off with plum
1868 plurality over Senator Frink
In the Sixth legislative district the allies
elected their entire ticket, l.. G.. Crow for
state senator and G. w. Waters and T. G.
Miles for representatives. In the Seventh the
republicans saved one representative out of
the wreck, +. J. Durham. Wiltord Allen
was beaten by G. w. Barkhuff.
Treasurer Windus, Clerk Renfrew and
Surveyor Murray, republicans, pulled through.
The remainder of the county ticket Is made
up from the democratic ranks, who were able
to wedge in, most of them by narrow plural
titles, by the universal straig btness of their
own tickets, the votes of scratching repub-
lcans and the hocking of the great majority
of former populsts to their standard.
The interest manifested in the election was
intense, as was manifested by the vote, 5742,
aginst 1872 in 1898 Partisan spirit ran
especially high on the county ticket, where
the fight was so close as TO take the official
count to decide it.

Poultry Shows.

j. s. keeney represented the Pullman
poultry fanciers in a meeting held in Col
lax last Saturday, at which the Pullman
and COltaX associations were combined
at the Whitman County Poultry Asso-
citation, says the Pullman Herald. The of
ticers elected for the year were O. L. Wal
Ter, president; o. L.Kennedy, vice president
A. c. Butcher, secretary; j. NJ. Palmer
ton, assistant secretary; T T. Davis,
treasurer. The executive board consists
of the president md secretary and
Messrs. 5. Manning, j. B. Kerr, and J.
5. keeney. The object of the organiza-
ton is to encourage the breeding of
fancy poultry and pet stock, and to hold
an annual poultry show, the first show
to be held in Pullman this coming win
ter. the dates set being January 23d to
18th. After this winter the show will be
held alternately at Pullman and COlfax.
Under this arrangement greater interest
is sure to be manifested by the yearly
exhibitions, and they will certainly be
more successful than if each town at
tempted to conduct a show of it's own.
1t is confidently expected that not less
than 1000 birds will be exhibited in the
show here this winter.

THE DAY AT COLFAX.
Only Excitement Was in the ChaI-
lenges Made

Election day at Colfax was quiet gen
orally, but spiced for an hour or two
after the first opening OF the polls with
small democratic incident which lost to
that party a number of votes for various
candidates.
Some time previous to election day
the democrats had secured through the
registration lists to fad some small pre-
text upon which republican votes might
be barred or republican precincts thrown
out because of small irregularities.
Deputy City Marshal Weinberg, who
in the event of Mackays election as
sheriff is to be chief deputy, took prom
inent position, with his official star
shining, and began challenging a number
of oldtimers like Rev. H. z. James,
Oliver Hall, Thos. Baker and others,
alleging improper registration, in that
they had not personally signed the
registration roll, but that their names
had been written in by City Clerk Me
Cord. Each man challenged swore in
bis vote, and then democratic threats
were made that the precinct would be
thrown out
Made Republican Votes.
This technical action on the part OF
the wise democratic management stirred
up hornets nest about the democratic
ears which was unlocked for. Anumbpr
OF republicans who had expected to split
their tickets in favor of one or more
democratic candidates changed their
minds and showed in their tickets
straight; while at least few democratic
voters turned in republican tickets. Dem
Ocrats in the crowd became alarmed and
attempted to pull Weinberg from his
perch, but it was two hours before his
brethren could persuade him to come
down.
The second ward cast heavy vote,
with republican lead OF about 40. On
Mckinley electors the vote was 40 for
the highest and 1876 for the lowest. On
Bryan electors 90 and 81. The only de-
parture from this on state officers was
Tor governor, Frink falling to 122 and
Rogers climbing to 100, great cut on
the republican candidate.
On the county ticket Bryant for Judge
took lis and Chadwick 90 On sheriff,
Canutt l46, Mackay III. Windus and
Murray, for surveyor, ran highest, 1877
for Windus, 80 for Byrne; 1877 for Muir
ray, SO for Horton.
The First ward gave SO highest for
Mckinley and 81 for Bryan. Frink took
but 76 to 70 for Rogers Renfrew for
clerk got the highest vote, 10, Savage
~. Two socialist votes were cast.
In the Third ward 81 was highest
Mckinley and 53 for Bryan. The re-
publican congressman had 56 each and
the democratic 53 straight. Bryant
polled>57, Chadwick As and Mcdonald
Fnr ~ l. 4 = y
80. The highest was Windus, with 81.
The change in the three city wards
between Canutt and Mackay for sheriff,
over the result when they ran TWO years
ago was more than reversed TwOyears
ago Mackay left the town with rs ahead.
This year Canutt took IT the best of it.
Bryant led Chadwick out OF the city
with 81 and McDOnalds vote was too
small to be reported in the official bulle-
tins. He had II in the Third ward and
23 in the First.

his contention.
