MANN LEADS By
1865 MAJORITY


by the fact that there are thousands of
people who did not want either Mr.
Tucker or Judge Mann; that there are
thousands more who are being alienated
from the Democratic party on account
of machine" domination, and who were
displeased with Mr.. Tucker, because he
did not attack the organization" when
the big leaders were working 50 hard TO
encompass his defeat; and that there are
many who were kept at home by the
primary pledge.
"Organization's" Poor Showing.
Getting back at figures again. Judge
Mann, as the temperance candidate four
years ago. polled 10000 votes. The re-
turns so far inalcate he has polled $500
this year. This year ne had the powerful
support CT the big Organization" leaders.
but not the solid support of the "organi-
zation" rank and file. He also had the
Anti-Saloon influence behind him. That
the Anti-Saloon commands a much larger
following than It did four years ago is
conceded by all Saying It's vote in
creased 5,OO0 thus giving Judge Mann
q 900 votes brought 10 him by the League,
the organization" only delivered 70 him
approximately 5000 votes, or One-sixth of
the total vote. This is regarded as the
poorest showing ever made by the Demo-
cratic organization IN years. and shows
how badly il was split.
Many OF the dry counties, where
there Is an Anti-Saloon sentiment, came
up well for Judge Mann.
Again there are 100000 people N ViT-
ginia, and the returns show that one
one out OF every thirty-three took part In
the Democratic primary.
