TWO T KtVU SAFE CAMERON IS Republican Candidate for District Attorney Receives a Few More Votes Than Manning in Each Precinct Thus Far Counted. George J. Cameron, Republican, has defeated John Manning, Democrat, for election to the office of. district attor- ney by a probable margin of 2,600. With tha office practically conceded to Man ning by the Republican county central committee, Cameron . has come out ot tha woods with a most surprising vote. sweeping, precinct? af tor prclnjet Into his column where Manning expected to poll a heavy vote ana, ir the ratio Keeps up to the completion of the count, will land in office with 2,600 or more votes t0 the good. . -v " The result of the district attorney fight is one' of the surprises of" the Campaign. 'Manning and his f (lends made a consistent and energetlo cam paign, establishing headquarters and fighting for votes on every hand. Every thing that Manning has done In an offi cial way for some time has been urged as a reason why he should be given another term in office. . Cameron's Quiet Work. Cameron on the other hand conducted a sort of a "pussyfoot" campaign, mak ing no stir and only bobbing up In pub lic at an occasional meeting. - As a re sult of the two lines of attack the Man ning talk was much the-loudest and he waa touted to win by most of the politi cal oracles. . Manning money had a hard time to find Cameron money to cover it tn the betting and consequently the Manning camp considered they had lbs battle as good as won. .With returns from ' 71 precincts, 17 of which .are complete, Cameron baa been given a vote of 4,927 while Man ning has polled 4.041. With a total vote of close to 26.000. running at the same relative ratio . Cameron should In- L crease his lead to approximately 2,600 when the other two thirds ot the votes are in and counted. There seems to be no particular dis trict which went abnormally for or against either candidate. All along; the line there was a steady consistent ma jority handed to Cameron while Man nine: was turned down in the Inverse ratio. Each precinct, generally speak ing, came up with a few votes . for Cameron mora " than those given ' to Manning, thus nutting the Republican candidate steadily, further and further to the front, r Long Trip In Balloon.
