Hearst is far behind the ticket in
Greater New York and in many up

plurality in Greater New York of 1885,

city for lieutenant governor. Other
democratic nominees ran ahead of
Chandler in the city and the late in

strength in several of the larger city
precincts would pull him out with
small majority.
Hawley fell short in several pre-
cincts where it was figured he was
the strongest. This, combined with
the big vote given Honeycutt In
Waitsburg, Prescott, Lincoln and sew

his majority in the republican strong

Some of the republican leaders adj
mitted this morning that one of the
strongest arguments used against
Hawley was the fact that some men,
ber of the family had held office for
the past 25 years. This combined
with the manly campaign conducted
by Honeycutt and his record as
county official won over hundreds Of
the republicans to him.

outcome said Auditor Honeycutt,
