FEW BETuTLire FROM COUNTRY Ballot CinkrtMiM esol of Coa teat for Coaatr OfllMFl Will Not Bo Kaowa Before Soma Tlaio Toaar. L'nofflclaf at Incomplete report! late loot night dhowed that Senator Allison had carried Council Bluffs by a saf majority over Governor Cummins. Authentic figures from the country precincts could not be ob tained last night, although Senator Alli son's supporters felt confident that ha had carried Pottawattamie' county. Unofficial figures geve'AUIson a majority over Cummina of 29 in the First ward, I In the First precinct and M in the Second precinct. In tho First precinct of the Second ward , Allison s majority was reported to be 42. In the First precinct of the Fifth ward Allison's majority was given as 28. Owing to the length of the republican ballot and the fact that the polls did not close until I o'clock, definite figures from the city precincts will not be obtainable until some time this morning. The successful candidates for the repub licans nominations for the county offices will not be known until some time today. Few Democrats Voto. There was little If any excitement at any of the polling places and a comparatively small vote was cast throughout the city. There being practically no contests In their party, the democrats did not generally take the trouble to go to the polls and conse quently a-small democratic vote was the result. It was reported all over the city that a number of democrats voted the re publican ticket at least so. far as the sena torial contest was concerned. The Impres sion prevailed that these democrats who asked for and were given republican ballots voted for Governor Cummins. , The following shows how few democrats voted their party ticket yesterday: In the first precinct of the -Second ward there were 2SS republican ballots cast and only fifty three democratic. In the second precinct of the Second wsrd there were 908 ballots csst, of which only twenty-eight ' wero democratic. In the second precinct of the Fifth ward there were ninety-four republican, twenty eight democratic and ten socialist ballots cast. In the third precinct of the Fifth ward there were ninety-five republican bal lots and twenty-three democratic. In the first precinct of the Sixth ward of the 416 ballots cast orjly forty-three were demo cratic. The republican ballot was an unwieldy affair and In many of the precincts the spoiled ballots were numerous. In some Instances the voter placed a cross against the named of both Allison and Cummins and again others voted for the candidates of both the progressive' and standpatters. In several Instances the name of but one candidate for some particular county office was found to be marked. Democrats' Openly Vote. Several democrats made no secret about voting the republican ticket. In one pre cinct a well known democrat, whose name was on the list Df delegates to his party .county convention, asked for and was given a republican ballot by the Judges. There were no challengers in -any of the polling "Traces and the Judges took the stand that they were required to hand a voter what ever ballot he called for. , Up to noon the voto In nearly every city precinct was extremely light, but toward ' evening, and especially during 'the last two hours, the polls were open things .livened up somewhat. All of the candidates, for the republican nominations for county and townthlp olfl-es were to be seen working at the different polls, but there was a noticeable absence of any undue excitement. There were no carriages bearing banners of the different parties or candidates and whatever work was done waa done more or less under cover. Allison carried the city by about 800 and th Indications are he will have between 6of and COO In the county. Twenty-eight out of forty-two precincts In the county give Allison 1.214, Cummins 1.744. Cummins car ried Avoca by 108. Walnut by 20 and Neola ty 26. Allison carried 'Oakland by 45 and Carson by 40. Cummina csrrled only one precinct in the city of Council Bluffs, the First of the Sixth, by 16.
