MING CLOSE TO MCCULLOUGH.

White River Junction. Vt. September
2.-There is no election by the people for
governor and lieutenant governor as the
result of the state election in Vermont
today At midnight the returns were not
complete but they indicated that Per-
eival w. Clement, high license option
candidate was running very close to
Gen. J. G. Mccullough (republican) of
Bennington. The returns from 200 cities
and towns out of 246 give the following
vote for governor: Gen. John G. McCul-
lough( republican, &c, 497; Felix W Nc
Fetterick (democra0 e112; Percival w
Clement (high license) 23.239; Joel c..
sherbourne (pro) 2O52.
The best idea of the change over in
votes on both the democratic and re-
publican parties is shown by the com
parison with the vote of the same two
hundred cities and towns In 1900, which
gave Stlckney Republican, 80, $685. Zen
ter (democrat) 443s; all others 1890
Mr. Clements showed great strength in

Many of the delegates to the republican
state convention, headed by Percival w.
Clement, bolted after an effort to place
in the platform plank favoring high
license local option had failed. P. w.
Clement was the choice for governor and
at a convention held in Burlington he
was chosen to lead the ticket while Frank
w. Agan of Ludlow was nominated for
lieutenant governor. The high license To-
cal option worked early and late in their
endeavor to defeat the regular republican
ticket while but little attention was paid
to the democratic ticket except to ask
the voters Of that party to assist in elect
ing representatives who would vote for
a high license local option liquor law with
referendum clause attached.
