SEATTLE TOTE VERY HEAVY Much Scratching Is Done in Down Town Precincts. SEATTLE; Wash.. Nev. S. (Special.) With ideal weather, the vote that turned out in Seattle today promises to be a record-breaker in point of numbers. There was an exceptionally heavytnorn ing vote and as soon as the polls were opened there were voters lined up await ing their opportunity. Both Republican and Democratic man agers professed to be well satisfied with the conditions as the day progressed. Both parties have placed their hopes on a full vote, and It is certain that the vote was full as it is possible to get un der any circumstances. The feature of the balloting was the scratching of tickets in the downtown districts. In the hill districts, straight ballots were the rule, but downtown it soon became evident that the voters were not making their selections solely along party lines. The election has been orderly In every way. All the saloons are closed, al though there were rumors that the right man with the right secret could get something, but to all intents and pur poses the law was obeyed. No attempts at fraudulent voting have been reported. There was considerable betting on results at downtown cigar stores. Anion the beta were three ag gregating W-W at odds of 3 to 1 that Taft would be elected; approximately ,X)0 at even money on Hughes against Chanler: one bet of M0 to foOO on Bryan; another bet of JlooO at even money that Taft would carry 23 states: JSOO even that Taft would carry two of the three doubt ful states, Kentucky, Missouri and Mary land' and two or three dozen smaller bets of $10 and fc!00 on Presidential returns. One bet of $15 to $500 that Hodge would be elected in this county was Washington's Prudential vote in ISO and Congressional vote In 1906: COUNTY. Adams Asotin tVnton .... t'hehalll ...

ALL SAFE IX WASHINGTON Taft s Plurality Will Reach 40,000. Legislature Republican. SEATTLE. Nov. 3. Although the polls did not close until 8 o'clock. In dications as received from every part of Washington show a plurality for Taft of at least 40.000. The entire state is safely Republican. The Legis lature will likely be composed almost wholy of Republicans. With not less than 85 per cent of the entire registered vote cast today un der ideal weather conditions, early estimates from every part of Washing ton indicate a clean sweep for the Republicans, with the exception of a few Democratic strongholds, and one or two disaffected places where the Democrats will secure legislative of fices.
