John o. Sheats. of Philadelphia, re-
publican was elected state treasurer
over John G. Harmon of Columbia
county, democrat, by about IT'S, 900
plurality. This was the only state
office voted for and a light vote was
polled in nearly every county. The
judicial contests in Luzerne, North
ampton and Schuylkill counties
brought out large vote. There was
little interest in the contests in other
counties which elected judges.
Returns show a large republican
gain for treasurer all over the state
as compared with the vote for this
office two years ago. For the first
time since 1904 there was no fusion
against the republican state ticket.
The Independent republican element
which has voted for the Lincoln party
at the last two elections. voted for
Sheats, who has been in sympathy
with this element. Sheats has served
three terms in the state house of rep
resentatives and voted against the or
ganization on several important meas
ures advocated by It's leaders.
