The Socialists did not do active campaigning with the hope of winning until Harper's resignation, and then they had no campaign fund with which to , work. Lust night they were unable to , raise J50 necessary to have some dodgers printed for distribution at the polls. But the regular Republican organization threw many votes to Wheeler, and many of the Democratic votes that elected Harper when the Republicans were badly pplit two years ago were given the So cialist ticket. The full Socialist vote of the city is less than 4000. as In shown by the vote received hy Eugene V. Debs at the last , Presidential election. Fight of Recallers.
