THE VOTE FOR GOVERNOR
Fletcher Had Good Lead and Will
Be Elected by the Legislature.

The unofficial total vote of the
state for governor last week Tuesday
reached 65,033, the largest in a
state election in a presidential year
since 1904. There was no election
by the people, but a sufficient num-
Der of republican members of the
Legislature were chosen to insure the
seating of Allen M. Fletcher of Cav
endish in October, as well as the re-
mainder of the republican state
ticket.
The total vote of the state for all
five candidates was as follows:
Allen M. Fletcher of CaVendish
(R), 26, 259.
Harland B. Howe of St. Johnsbury
CD, 2O,35O.
Rev. Frazer Metzger of Randolph
(Prog), 1880.
Clement F. Smith of Morrisville
(Pro.) 1,443.
Fred w. Suitor of Barre (Soc. /,
l1,1S1.
The election Of the entire republi-
can ticket in the next Vermont legis-
lature is assured, according to a
statement made to the press by Frank
lC. Williams, chairman of the Repub-
lican State Committee. Both in the
House and Senate, Mr.. Williams said,
republicans are assured in joint bal
lot of a majority of IS, with a pos
sibility of rs. This statement was
made after the state committee had
carefully canvassed election results
in the IA counties and had interview
ed a majority of the representatives
and senators elected. In SUMMARY
/ ing the situation Mr.. Williams said
1.-TWO hundred and forty-one rep
resentatives have been elected, three
towns have adjourned their free
mans meetings without electing a
representative and two towns are still
balloting.
"Of the representatives elected
139 are republicans who will vote for
the entire state republican ticket in
the legislature and 81 are democrats
who will support the democratic state
ticket. Thirty-nine representatives
have been elected as progressives
or under such circumstances that
they will probably vote for the third
party state ticket. Eleven represen-
tatives have not been heard from,
COT the senators elected Tuesday
27 are republicans who will support
the republican state ticket and three
are democrats. This gives the re-
publicans on joint ballot for state
officers a majority of 6 3 at least and
a possibility of rs, and majority in
the House of 38 with a possibility of
49,"
