REPUBLICANS
GET MORE VOTES
THAN DEMOCRATS
All the Counties Report Except
: Scottsbluff, Show
ing th3 Official "v
Returns.
From a Staff Correspondent,
pncoln, Sept. 7. (Special.) The
cry set up by the democrats that Ger
man democrats were going to go over
.in;a body to the republican party and
vote for the republican candidates, is
not borne out by the vote as re
turned to the office of the secretary of
state.
Taking the vote on United States
senator, which probably brought out
the entire vote, it indicates there
were 65,948 republican votes cast and
60,222 democratic votes.VThis includes
the unofficial count on all of the coun
ties but Scotts Bluff, which at noon
today was the only one failing to re
port. The vote solar shown by the official
returns, although not officially given
out is as follows:
Republican.
