Washington, Jan l2.-Analysis OF
the returns Of the recent presidential
election discloses that one county OF
the United States, zapata county.
Texas, cast its Yote unanimously for
the Republican presidential electors.
This fact was stated recently TO
Franklin X. Lane OF the interstate
commerce commission and he took oc
casion to investigate the matter. In
substantiation OF the statement he is
in receipt of certificate from w. r.
Davie. secretary of state OF Texas, de-
claring that Zapata county cast its 429
votes solidly for the Taft and Sher.
man electors. The population OF the
county is les than 5000. Careful ex.
