Story Below Shows Just How all the Democratic Candidates, Residents of this County, Pared at Primary.

A study of the vote cast in this county at the. late primary election, re- ,veals number of interesting facts. It
 shows. among other things, that some
 of the democratic candidates without opposition, received a smaller vote
 than did others with opposition. It
 also shows several vulnerable places in
 the democratic. ticket where the re-
 publicans have more than an even chance to win.
 But aside from all these considera-
 tions. the strength developed by the
 aspirants presents an interesting
 study. And this is especially true with
 reference to the democratic candidates
 who live in this county Below is
 shown the strength of these candi-
 dates. without reference to any other
 matter than the number of votes re- ceived. Some of these men had op- position in this county. some of them had as opponents residents of other counties. and some lad no opposition at all. The relative standing of the democratic candidates, resident of Maricopa county. are here considered
 The man to receive the largest vote on the democratic side is Vernon L. Vaughn. who was given 175S votes for recorder
 Number two is George Mcdonald for treasurer; Babbitt. for representative, is third; Frank Lyman. for county at torney. is fourth: Bullard. for attorney general. is fifth: Higgins. for school aar-i,, -;. for surveyor. is seventh; Hayden. for national representative. is eighth: Franklin. for justice of the supreme court. is ninth Adams. for sheriff. is l tenth: Jones. for corporation commits ! sioner. is eleventh. and Johnson. for state representative is twelfth
 The unlucky thirteenth place was drawn by J. H. Langston. the unop- | posed candidate for superior judge. | who got 1895 out of more than 2.OO0 | democratic votes cast. Cooke. for rep resentative. is fourteenth; Bone. for l supervisor. is fifteenth: Irvine. for rep | resentatve. is sixteenth; Osborne. for | secretary of state. is seventeenth: | Wood. for the state senate. is eigh- | teenth: Jones. for representative. is | i'hiNtNNiAii. V -Ntili. TUT L. s>- StIldtpI. is twentieth; Orme. for supervisor is twenty-first, and Moeur. for supervi- | sor. is twenty-second.
 Then comes Jacobs. for state repre- sentative. with the skiddoo number. | twenty-three: Lewis. for the same of- | flee, is twenty fourth. and Leyhe. like wise a legislative candidate is twenty fifth: Davis. fo- the state senate is twentysixth; Feel. for representative. is twenty seventh: Acuff. for road su- perintendent. is twenty eighth: Tho mas, for clerk O. court, is twenty | ninth: Luke. for supervisor. is thir- | tieth: Faulkner. for superintendent of | roads. is thirty-first: Woolf. for the | state senate. is thirty Peterson for supervisor. is thirty third: Melczer for corporation commissioner. is thir ty- fourth: Bradshaw. for supervisor is thirty-fifth: Brooks. for assessor. is | thirty sixth; Norris. for supervisor, is | thirty seventh: Shaughnessy, for clerk of courts. is thirty eighth: Johnson. for | the state senate. is thirty ninth; White, for sheriff. is fortieth: Hoghe. for supervisor, is fOrty-first; Milligan. for clerk of courts, is forty second, and | Haggard, who thought he was in the race or sheriff. brings up at the tail | end of the procession.
 Naturally. the men who were in the forties. didn't get many votes. White had 5O1. Hoghe 492. Milligan 4SO. and | Haggard A.
 Of course there were many unsuc- cessful candidates for some of the county offices who had more votes than had the successful candidates for oth CT positions For instance, Lewis had 1883 votes for representative, but was defeated ;while Thomas was nominat ed for clerk of courts with 921 votes.
 When all the factors are considered the best run was made by Jeff Adams. candidate for sheriff. Adams received | 1i99 vot s, with two Maricopa county men against him. Carl Hayden got 1914 votes for congress, also in a tri- angular race: but both his opponents live in Jtbcr ccur ties. The vote for men who were unocu posed range from 175S for Vernon Vaughn, down to 1905 ror IaucS'O on
