MAY DECIDE FOR RECOUNT
trrom A STAFF correspondent.)

(From a Staff Correspondent
LINCOLN, Aug. a.-(speoial) -GovernoI
shallenberger figured himself practically
winner late this afternoon. based on mes
sage from Frontier county that his majority
would be increased in that county at least
100. At the noon hour the governor figured
that he was only thirty-six behind DAM
man.
These figures the executive Is using to
count himself in have been wired to him
from friends In the various countries ana
late today he had received messages. he
said. from every county In the state.
The governor does not intend to give
up the fight until every legal means Is ex-
hausted to make him a winner. Should
the returns show that he has been de-
feated by a small vote he will ask for
recount in Douglas county and possibly
In otoe county. lie believes that many
votes cast In those two counties should
have been thrown out instead of counted
for Dahlman. He has been told 80, ne
said, by friends in Douglas county that
many ballots on which both Dahlman ana
! Lynch, a republican were voted for were
| counted for each of them. In Otoe county
the governors information is to the erect
that many votes for Hayward and Dahlman
| were counted.
| Inc governor figures lndN Ddhihoh 80
at least 1900 or 5000 republican votes
and therefore It is his duty as the head
of the democratic party TO see TO 1t that
the rights Of democracy are protected, so
| he will ask for a recount In those, counties.
In Lancaster many ballots were thrown
out because the voter marked Dahlman
and some republican while In one preclnet
In Dodge county fifteen Dahlman ballots
were said to have been thrown out Tor
| the same reason. Because OF knowledge I
he has on these counties the governor De
lieves that the practice OF jumping across
another party has been generally over
| the state.
Secretary Furse and Arthur Mullen have
been with the governor all day and they
have gone over the law books very Indus
triousy to see just where to begin, should
1t be decided definitely to appeal to the
courts. The report that Stoecker In DOUG
| las county intended asking for recount
interested the governor very irFtich ana IL
Stoecker starts the pail, the governor Will
get in and push 1t along.
The governor was very much put ou'
today by receipt of news from one OF his
very dear and helpful ministerial FRIENDS
who said he voted for Dahlman because
he believed It would hasten county option
and prohibition.

today and left this afternoon to continue
his chautauqua engagements. Not having
| information regarding the nomination OF
democratic candidate for governor he
| would make no statement politically.
Defamation May BE Unnecessary.
| 1t seems to be the general belief Of those
who have been looking over the returns
of the election that IL Victor Wilson will
| wait a little while before declining to be
| a candidate on the same ticket with Dahl
man he may be spared the trouble OF issu-
| ing withdrawal statement. However, on
! the official returns reported to the secre-
tary of state Wilson Is making very
| creditable showing against Ben Hayden.
| But these returns do not include Douglas
and Lancaster counties, where Hayden ran
strong The twenty-eight counties which
have officially made returns give Hayden
la total of 2,612 votes and Wilson 2,4l2
