RECOUNT DEMANDED.

The County Court met Monday
as a canvassing board OF the vote cast
on last Tuesday. A recount of the vote
for mem bers of the Legislature has
been demanded, aud also for magis.
trate in this city, by Mr.. J. F.. Rob-
erts, one of the defeated republican
candidates. The demand for a recount
of the legislative vote is in pursu-
ance of general pan to raise con-
tests in all close counties, carry the
cases to the legislature, and have as
uany democratic members thrown
out, as possible, so that there may be
no serious opposition to any legisla-
ton that the Republicans may de-
sire to enact, or to the election of a
republican United States Senator. 1t
will probably take several days to
complete the recount. Mr. M. Woods
is representing the Democrats and
Mr.. H. H. Emmeit the republicans.
