Official returns were received by
The Republican last night from the
clerks of boards of supervisors of seven
OF the fourteen counties of the state.
The changes made from the figures of
the official returns from those counties
VIII not amount to more than ten votes.
In Maricopa county where the returns
OF only 30 Of the S5 precincts have been
canvasSed, there were no net changes.
in the morning an error was discovered
in the figures from Alma precinct A
block of five that had no existence,
had been counted on the Campbell side,
but later in the day it was found that
figure "3" in the unofficial figures from
Iehi precinct was really an 49,. That
cvened matters.
Only Slight Changes
Taking the unofficial figures of the
republican state committee as a basis,
the following changes have occurred:
A loss of 10 for Campbell in Pima,
loss of 16 for Golfer in Yuma; a loss of
> for Campbell in CocOnino; a gain of
for Golfer in Navajo and a loss OF
for Golfer in Santa Cruz. The repub-
lican committe carried Golfers major
lty in Mohave at 1852, though there were
eight precincts unheard from by the
committee. These, according to Of
ficials figures for governor last nigt
increased the Golfer majority in that
county to 372, less than the republican
committee had expected.
The seven counties from which The
Republican last night had received
complete returns are Pima, Santa Cruz
Coconino, Greenlee, Yuma ella and
Cochise which include four of the Col
Ter strongholds. The figures in those

10 come in have been accounted for in
The figures already received by the re-
publican committee. There are yet. to
he reported for Campbell Maricopa
which unofficially gave him 2191 and
Iavapai which gave him 25.
The most surprising FEATURES of the
official returns are the heavy vote on
the various propositions submitted to
the people and the probability that all
of them have carried. with the eXcep-
ton of the Worwmen's Compensation
act which was overwhelmingly defeated
everywhere. 1t was expected that the
legislative districting bill would fall be-
hind in the large democratic counties
and that the propositions to restore
capital punishment and to restore the
public contract system would suffer in
the large mining counties. But these
propositions. as well as the bills amend
ing the land laws, carried in all those
counties.
1t curiously happened that the close
and northern county of Coconino was
the only one of the seven to express
general disapprobation Of the submit
ted measures. though it voted for the
restoration Of capital punishment.
