Complete unoffieial returns were re

precincts of Clatsop county. with IN
single exception of Push. The vot

and sheriff was wired up from tina

at the ONCE of County Clerk Clintor
includes only those precincts which
have reported in full, The vote al
Push Is small and cuts no figure in
the result.
In many respects the election was a
remarkable one. Despite Sheriff Lin
ville's confidence that he would be re-
elected, things looked very blue for
him on election day, and many Of his
warmest friends conceded the election
Of George w. Morton, the democratic
nominee II was claimed by the demo-
Gratis and pretty generally believed by
republicans that Morton would have
more than 200 plurality in the city,
but the democrat was not supported
in several precincts and defeated Lin
vile by only 92 votes. Linville claimed
that he would carry the country by
500, but his lead outside the city was
224. Including the vote of Push, he
is elected by 1872.
1t was noticeable that Morton did
not gain in some of the city precincts
along with the other democrats. In
No. 4, for instance, he ran considerably
behind Laws and Burns, and also fell
short of B. F. Aliens vote. At city
precincts No. and No. ne was also
beaten. His friends had calculated on
these precincts giving Morton safe
majorities, but their prediction was
not realized. Morton is said to have
been given the double cross" but this
view is not shared by those politicians
whu are well posted, and who know
of Linville's ability as a campaigner.
Still, in the face of the very enthusiasts
tic support which Morton received and
the outlook on election day, the result |
was a surprise to almost everyone ex-
cept the sheriff and a few of his |
stanchest friends.
B. F. Allen is defeated for county |
commissioner by William Larson. Lar
sons plurality, including the vote OF
Push, is 9S.
The democrats captured both rep
resentatives. Burns led the ticket with |
a total vote of 1853, not counting the
vote of Push. His plurality over Palm
berg is 247. Laws received 1902 votes
and defeated Palmberg by 81. Palm
berg ran six votes ahead of Lester in
