sis of the vote for governor shows that
Mr.. Philip carried fifty-fve counties.
while Karel carried sixteen Every
canvassing board in the state has COM

turns fix the plurality in the state not

state ticket. The vote on all state Of
fcers was as follows:

Govern have elected Paul o. Husting
United States senator, according to
the official canvass of the state, by
plurality of LOO.
The vote for United States senator
is as follows: Husting, democrat, 1885,
321; McGovern, republican, 134,321;
Seidel, socialist, 30,461.
These figures are official and OBJ
tanned from the records which will be
filed with Secretary of State Donald at
Madison, except Milwaukee county,
where the canvass has not been COM
pleted The plurality will stand I'M
less surprising changes are made by
the recounts which have been ordered
in six counties.
Giving the governor the benefit OF
every doubt, it seems certain that he
will be defeated by plurality OF at
least 500 when the final count is made.
The contest will be carried to the I'm
tied States senate in the event of Mr..
Hastings plurality being wiped out by
the recount. That much has been an
nounced by the senator-elect.
