great decrease in the Democratic
vote. Mr.. Pearre's vote in Fred

ceived two years ago. In Allie
gany it fell off about l 800 and in
Washington county LOO. His
increased majority, there FORE,
came from the greater falling Oft

troller of the Treasury This
time only three counties gave
Democratic majorities-Worces-
ter, Cecil and Queen Anne's-and
