At ovory point during tho progress of the

for a moment was tho perfect poise ot the

that tho Third dUtrlct Is now republican
territory and that no fusion candidate for
any ofllco Is likely to win there In future
elections.
Soveral causes contributed to my defeat.
Last year Mr. Holcomb had a majority of
4,600 In tho Third district and that was the
vote that was generally considered neces
sary for me to overcome, I am Impressed
with the belief that a largo number ot vot
ers thought It would bo Impossible to over
come that big fusion majority and for that
rctiBcm they gavo up the battle beforo It
was fought out. In the district there wero
43,000 votes cast on tho presidential ticket
and less than 45,000 on tho congressional
ticket, showing that about 3,000 electors did
not voto at all for congressman. McKlu-
ley's plurality In the district was 1,227 and
Mr. Hoblnson, my opponent, had but 177
plurality. If thoso 3,000 peoplo had voted
on tho congressional ticket I would havo
received a plurality something like McKln-loy's.
'Votes wero lost to tho congressional
ticket by tho faults In tho form of tho of-
flalnl ballots. They woro printed In double-
column nnd hundreds of men voted tho
first column and overlooked tho second, In
which happened to be the congressional
ticket. Another thing thnt caused a slump
lh tho voto from tho head ot the ticket was
tho fact that many voters thought that
marking one cross In tho circle to vote for
all of tho presidential electors signified a
voto for tbo cntlro ticket. If I had had a
man at overy polling place to tell each
voter not to forget to voto for congressman
and explain to him the correct method of
doing so, I would havo been elected."
