On the basis of scattering, but fair.

Howell is due to roll up a majority
of 1000 in Douglas county, Whether
or not McCloud holds his out-state

many votes, if not fully as many
as all the other four candidates to-
gether. He defeated the Hitchcock
candidate, Ralph Clark, the two

Total Vote Almost 100000.
There were Indications that the
total vote in the state would be
around 100000. A normal general
election vote is 275,00O, with primary
elections considerably below that
figure. Returns indicate that the
storm in central and western Ne
braska materially reduced the vote
from what would otherwise have
been registered, but the addition OF
women to the list of voters brought
the total to a new primary record
Slow counting of returns and diff
flcult wire transmission made the
tabulations the slowest in 10 years
time and delayed all calculations as
to minor offices on the state ticket

Samuel Gompers Makes Appeal
to Women Voters.

26,0O0,000 new women voters to mark

gress which shall stop .profiteering. re-
duce living costs enact a real child

protect the home and women in in

dertaken near the close of an eighteen
month period during which more than
four million workers struck or be
came involved in strikes. The strikes
included the bituminous coal conflict
the outlaw railroad strikes which took
out approximately 100. 600 workers; the
steel strike when a still greater num-
ber of men threw down their tools:
the longshoremen's strike which tied
up shipping in nearly all Atlantic
ports; the IVA ca ton" of the New York
printers; the walkout of the United
Cigarmakers and a score of lesser in
