diminishing stream almost until closing hour arrivad.
 The vote was slow in being counted, the returns from the country precincts coming in before any city precinct to- tsls were received. Likewise Camp bells majority in the county was slew in reaching any size until the precincts in the city sent in their returns. From then on, his majority steadily grew. With 26 precincts reported, Campbelrs majorit yWas 1011, while with 42 pre- cincts reported his majority had grown 10 l42S.
 The soldier vote, the dark horse" in the election, the strength of which was undetermined, did not make much diff terence in the result. But 63 votes were cast by Arizona soldiers away from home. Of these Hayden received 39 Maddock, 2l; Colter, 27. Campbell. 3s; Simms, 35. Kay 26; Adams for sheriff, Ss. Montgomery for sheriff, 22
 The vote from Mesa was slow in ar irving. When approximately half had been counted the result was Colter 145, Campbell 3S3. That was at midnight
 At 8 o'clock this morning it ap- pcared that the voters of Arizona had re-aftrmed their verdict of two years ago. when the returns gave Thomas F. campbell a majority over George W. p. Hunt for governor. Returns from throughout the state were fragmentary but Maricopa had given Campbell a majority greater than had been ex- Iccted and the Hunt strongholds had not done nearly as well by Fred T. Coltcr as had been expected.
 lt had been said by his managers that he would come down from the north with d majority that would wipe out any possible majority that might he given Campbell in Maricopa. But carly returns from the northern coun- lies indicated that he had lost Coco nino and that the majority of Camp bell in Yavapai would be greater than lt was two years ago.
 Following close upon this was a story of Campbell gains in Pima coun- ~ and reports from Cochise. Greenlee and Yuma showed that Golfer had run far behind his ticket there.
 Though Major Hayden has been re- elected to congress, Lieutenant Thomas Maddock has received flattering vote in every county.
 IL will be impossible to furnish defi- mite figures for several days. For most of the offices few figures were available and nothing definite could be learned regarding the constitutional amendments. and the initiated and re- ferred measures. But it is almost cer- tain that the workmen's compensation act has been defeated, that the legisla- tive districting bill has been passed, and that capital punishment has been restored

BURY DEAD GERMANS

G'rom the Des Moines Registcr.)
 SPRINGFIELD, Mass.--The Ger mans are expected to strip their dead before they bury them. Bodies are to be placed into the collins without a stitch of clothing. Tsey may be wrapped in paper. however. This is the only concession made to relatives of the dead. whose feelings are hurt by the order.
 Clothing is very scarce in Germany. Every scrap counts. The government has no use of the sentimentalists who would squander garments on the cnd while the living are without clothes. The rules and regulations regarding burials are not observed strictly enough by the population of Munich, says the Neueste Nachrichten.
 In Munich the custom of hiring women who attend to washing and dressing the dead is in vogue These women, the official attendants of the dead. have been ordered by the mayor to refuse their services wherever they are asked tos put intoa coffin, a. -ccrpsN

LEATHER LEGGINGS
 FINE HUN TARGETS

(From the Army and Novy JournaD
 A study of the lists of casualties among officers of the United States army in action in France shows an un usually large number among lieuten ants. This fact raises the question as to whether the leather logging which it is presumed is worn by officers in bat tie, as is worn on duty in the United States, may not be one cause of the casualties. The leather logging is ex tremely conspicuous and makes it easy for the enemy to distinguish between officer and enlisted man. Naturally the enemy makes special effort to pick off the officers.
 The ordinary percentage of casual ties among lieutenants is figured as one in fifty, on the basis of there being five lieutenants to a company. The percentage of killed among the lieuten- ants is much higher than this and off, cers in the United States are inclined to believe that the conspicuous leg ging is one cause.
 ''The leather logging" said an officer of many years experience, should be abolished entirely, at least in time of war. It is d useless, uncomfortable and expensive piece of equipment. Here is the government warning against the shortage of leather, and at the same time officers of the army are compelled to waste it in almost incal- culable quantities on their legs, just so they may look elegant. In addition to the leather logging being too distinc- tive a mark for the enemy, may not some of the chevrons of non-co conmis- stoned officers be also too distinctive a mark? There is an unusually high percentage of casualties among the non-coms and while great improve ment has been made in making the chevron less conspicuous, it would seem that further improvement can still be made. The leather logging | however, should speedily receive the attention of the powers that be and ii should cease to be part of the off, cer's uniform
