SIX PRECINCTS IN

OF THE RESULT OF THE
PRIMARY

all but six had reported their election
returns last evening, the figures ap
pearing in tabulated form this morn

not be heard from now until afte
The vote is canvassed by the boart
of county commissioners. Direc
communication was impossible witt
the judges in some of them yester-
day; from others it was learned that
the returns had been sealed and for
warded to the county clerk, none OF
the judges having kept any additional
record. For this reason it will be i'm
possible to tell. where the race is
close, as it is in several instances
who's who until the official count
Generally speaking, however, the
judges were very anxious to notify
The Muscular of the results as soon
as the count was completed SO that
the public could be quickly informed.
But there were several instances
where no effort was made to render
this service. True, the count was late,
but ten minutes, at the most, would
have been sufficient to have given the
figures over the telephone The judges
in all but one of the city precincts
made a special effort to do this. In
precinct No. 8, where there were a few
more than 80 votes, the count was not
completed until $50 o'clock yesterday
morning. 1t was not until 2 o'clock
yesterday afternoon that these re-
turns could be obtained and then only
after The Missoulian had agreed to
pay one of the judges for half a day's
work for copying the figures on a
sample ballot and delivering them to
the office.
The races among the various aspi-
rants for sheriff nominations did not
result in the expected sensations
Because OF the large number of men
who sought this office it was thought
that the fight would be close. Now
however. 1t appears that Albert Mar
ion, former under sheriff, has beaten
opponents in the democratic party
among them Hugh Kelley, former dep
uty. while John Cannon, a dark horse.
