DIES MONIES, June a.-(Specal Tele-
gram. Incomplete returns from the eau
cuses which were held I'm Audubon county
yesterday give the county to Perkins by
the narrow margin Of one vote in the
county convention to he held Saturday.
Full returns from every precinct show that
Mr. Perkins will have sixty eight and Gov
ernor Cummins sixty-seven delegates in the
convention, while the vote of three pre-
clncts which apparently gave Governor
Cummins forty-two delegates will be con-
tested on the ground that large numbers
of democrats voted. A most determined
fight was made in Lincoln. which is one of
the contested townships, against Hon.
Asmus Boysen, who resides there. The
Cummins people claim to have carried the
township by four votes but Mr.. Boysen's
friends understand 1t will be contested as
many democrats voted and their names
were enrolled. In the town OF Audubon a
large number OF democrats voted, as they
have in nearly every town in the state.
The Perkins people have the organiza-
ton OF the county convention and w c.
Elliott, a staunch Perkins man, has been
selected by the county committee as tenn
porary chairman OF the convention. The
result being so close it is anticipated that
there will be contesting delegations to the
state convention.
