ed the Republican ticket. In that
election there were over 101 900
votes cast in Utah. OF this number
Parker for president received 35,413,
while Roosevelt received 62,446. 1t is
doubtful If the total vote this year
will reach $4,000, which will be divid
ed about as follows: Howell, 10000;
Powers, $4,000; Weir, 10000.
Two years ago Howell was given
52,675, Powers 37,445, Hiles 6,796.
The seventh state legislature Of
Titan will consist very largely Of Re-
publicans. The state senate will be
entirely Republican. The house will

Eve
The Republican ticket carried Salt
Lake county by plurality ranging
from 1900 to 1000.

City by pluralities varying from GAS
for Weir to 1892 for Pitt and 1912 for

ing their ticket The Democrats got
from 5000 to 1880 votes in the city,
Judge Powers leading his ticket with
a total vote of 4,S41 in the city.
AS compared with the vote in the
city last fall, the Republicans got
2,S62 more votes than they gave
Lynch for mayor; the Democrats lost
2,9S9 as compared with the vote for
Morris, and the Americans got 1873
more than were recorded for Thomp-
son. One peculiar coincidence is that
Howell this year came within two
votes of the total vote for Morris and
Lynch last year--one Republican,
the other q Democrat.
