The only very close contest in
the Republican primary was that
for the nomination for city clerk.
For a time John f. Ambuhl and
! William A. Boyce were running a
close race. but as official returns
were being completed Boyce took
the lead. Official returns from leo
precincts gave him a lead OF about
800.
With the expected nomination Of
Boyce. the entire Republican Klan
slate will have been successful.

The returns showed an abnormal
ly heavy total for the four Re
publican candidates for Mayor, in.
dicating that Democrats took Re
publican ballots in large numbers.
Four years ago 66.904 votes were
cast for Republican candidates for
mayor. and 1924 for Democrats.
The returns indicate the total Re
publican vote Tuesday was approx
mately 10000, while the Democratic
vote stood at around 10000.
