As Far as He Is Concerned Dispute Over the
-Office of Sheriff Will End With Recount of
Ballots'and There Will Bo. No Legal Fight
Aa far aa Tom M. Word la concerned
the dispute over the office Of sheriff will
end with a recount of the ballots. There
will be no' legal fight to throw out the
votes xf varloua precincts, even though
It can, be proved that hundreds of Il
legal ballots were permitted to go Into
the box. Sheriff Word and hla attor
ney. Judge McGinn, feel confident, that
a secount will show that Stevens waa
defeated not by a narrow margin, such
ae Appears In hla favor a the result ot
the formal official eanvaaa, but by hun
dreds of votes. If they are disappoint
ed in thle expectation there will be no
further proceedings, unless the prohibi
tionists should take the matter In their
own hands and aak the courts to throw
out the vote of Sellwood precinct, which
wae carried by Stevena by a majority
large enough to turn the scale In hie
favor. . .

' Just 'when the recount will begin Is

Robert I' Stevena saya he will put no
obstacles In the way. He haa retained
Senator Malarkey, a enrewd and. re
sourceful attorney, to look after hla In

advice... Malarkey ls busy with other

are that the ease will be heard by either
Judge Bears or Judge Fraser, but It la
till possible that It may be assigned to

the crowded condition of the Multnomah
county calendar. ; ,

Judge Sears denied this morning that
there had been any meeting of the cir
cuit Judges te consider the assignment
of the recent petition or that he had de
cided to ask Judge Eakln to alt .in the
case, In response to an Inquiry aa to
when the- recount would begin. Judge
Sears said: -
"It depends largely upon - the condi

dars 'are crowded, and If an outside

nothing of such a meeting until I reed

this 1 -true. It will be remembered that
In Ohlov whero the Republican major

a Democratic governor. In Pennsyl

even greater, they elected a Democratic
treasurer, - and In Missouri, where the
majority Is overwhelmingly Democratic,

they elected Joseph W. Folk aa gover
