How the spoils are to be, divided is
pow known to practically every candi-
date. who appeared in the Hennepin
primaries. In several instances there
who were talked Of before the election
as having little show Of success.
Big Republican Vote. H..
A prominent feature Of the election
was the tremendous republican vote
cast, and the small democratic vote.
This is being accounted for by the
statement that DR.. A. A. Ames drew a
large number Of democratic votes, and
that not a few Of that party also
voted for DR.. u. G.. Williams for
mayor.
t'Dems'' for Ames.
An interesting development was the
size Of the Ames vote FOR the repub

democratic vote is usually heavy. He
led the ticket in the sixteenth and
seventeenth precints Of the fourth

strength Of j. J.. Heinrich, who. wa
slated to enter the race. But Helm
rich didn It file, and Kohler apparentl,
secured all the Heinrich backing
| There is also probably something il
the story that the city administration
opposed Williams and aided Kohler-
| an outcome Of the old Hearst and anti
Hearst fractional fight.
vanderburgh Wins.
The nomination Of William II. Van
derburgh to the district bench is. gen
era1 surprise. Vanderburgh was though
Of by many as simply man who wa
making the run because he had go
the habit. But this time his pei
severance was rewarded. Vanderburg
