The vote Two Years Ago.

The districts voted two years ago at
the primary as follows: First, major
| ity for Leland, 1900; Second, major
] for Leland, 500; Fourth, majority for
Stubs, 2,4OO; Sixth. majority for
Stubs, $500; Seventh. majority for
Stubs. $500; Eighth, majority for
Leland carried only seventeen coun-
ties two years ago. Stubs carried
every county in the Fourth district, all
but two in the Fifth all but one in
the Sixth and all but two in the Sew
enth and all but one in the Eighth
There were 10000 votes cast at the
last primary, the first election of the
kind ever held in the state. Nearly
100000 Republican voters stayed at
home. 1t seems to be regarded that
the heavier the vote tomorrow, the
bigger the Stubs majority. A very
light vote means a chance for Wag-
staff.
There has been no change in the
congressional fights since the estimates
| of last week McNeal is making a
better showing lately than at any time
since the campaign opened. Calder
heads mastery discussion of the tar
| iff in his Manhattan speech may yet
pull him through a hard fight. They
have started sensation on jackson
in the matter of jointist fees, but it is
regarded as partisan dope" and will
not be likely to save Miller. Scott has
made a thorough campaign and looks
| the winner, but he has hard fight on
his hands. Mitchell has made a great
showing all over the district. Camp
bell is safe for the primary, but he viii
have to fight next fall. So will Reed
err, and much harder than the Third
district statesman.
Governor Stubs is making a whirl-
/ 6nf eI1 in "a counties of
Usage and Wabaunsee. In company
with ]. N. Dolley, he will go to Pax
| leo on the early Rock Island and
speak there at 1890. From there he
will make the rest of the trip by auto.
speaking at Mcfarland at 1880 and
at Alma at 1880 p. m. He speaks at
Eskridge at $3.50 and at Harveyville at
1890. A big county rally will be held
at Usage City at night.
The regulars flooded these two
| counties with speakers, sending them
all from Cannon down, and as they
are square deal counties and one of
them the home of Dolley. the governor
| thought it would be a good idea to
make five speeches in this friendly
section in one day, just to show that
customary to slight the friendly coun-
ties and pay particular attention to the
hostile ones in a campaign, but the
| governor desires to tell the Wabaun-
see people that he appreciates their
| loyal support in the past and hopes to
merit it in the future, as they say in
| the curtain talks at the theaters.
