With practically no reports from
those portions Of the city in which the
Jones strength is supposed to lie, DR..
r. G. Williams showed total of 2,812
votes in sixty precincts reported in this
afternoon and David P. Jones had re-
ceived 1858. Since most Of these pre-
cincts were in sections where pr. WI.
vote the condition Of the vote, SO far as
indicated at County Auditor Scott s Of
fee, leads to the conclusion that MT.
Jones is the republican nominee for
mayor.
John A. Schlener is third in the race
for the republican mayoralty nomina-
tion, showing but 1896 votes in the
sixty precincts heard from. while DIT.
Henry S., Nelson is poor fourth with
645 votes in the sixty precincts and x DI.
Hugh Nelson and the redoubtable Will
liam n. Cowles trail along with SO and
66 votes, respectively.
Judging from the nature OF these
portions Of the city from which the
recorded vote has come, there Is no pos
sibility that either Mr.. Schlener or Dr..
Nelson will develop anything like IN
teresting strength, In all probability
David P. Jones is the reppbieean, mayor Or
Brief analysis Of the accessible vote
on mayor shows that Jones is breaking
almost even with Williams in the lower
town precincts, where the Williams
forces are massed, and that he has
much the better Of the argument in the
better residence districts, where 1t was
expected that the Jones candidacy
would be popular.
In seven precincts of the first ward
Jones polls l12 votes and Williams 172:
in two precincts Of the SECOND ward
Jones gets 296 votes to Williams, 70;
in ten precincts Of the third ward Jones
has 448 votes and Williams has 4ss.
Of the fourth ward Jones has 33l to
Williams 404.
This same condition is shown in the
fifth ward, where In seven Of the lower
town or rivers district precincts Jones
gets 3S4 to Williams 452. Williams
sixth ward, where he has $50 votes to
Jones 200 in eleven precincts. In two
precincts Of the seventh the record
shows 100 votes for Jones and 124 for
| Williams, but in the one eighth ward
precinct heard from 90 Of the votes are
! is showing plenty Of strength in the
ninth also, getting 10S votes to Viii
liams' 81 in three precincts. In one
precinct Of the tenth the vote is, Jones,
81; Williams, 40; in two Of the eleventh
precincts, Jones, 151, and Williams. 100,
Jones, go; Williams, 80. Reports from
the thirteenth ward and from the re-
manning districts Of the eighth, third
fourth, fifth, eleventh, twelfth and sec.
ond wards should fix Jones' leadership
beyond question.
Hubert Defeats johnson.
Handicapped by tardy entrance in the
Dunn wing Of the local party, Sam Il
/ johnson is second man in the race for
Che republican nomination for city
| treasurer. City Treasurer Hubert has
4,05l votes and Mr.. johnson but 3,005
1 in the sixty precincts whose reports
have been received at the county audit
1 IS office. There is no prospect that
further returns will decrease Mr.. Hui
| bert e lead.
