polled a heavy vote.
Adherents of Colonel Roosevelt claim
that their candidate polled 20,000 more
A'otes than President Taft.
The length of the ballot makes the
counting very slow and It will be hours
before accurate figures can be obtained.
Before the election William J. Bryan
pledged himself to accept the choice
of the Nebraska voters as his own
choice.
That COlonel Roosc"vclt polled more
than twice the combined vote of La Fol

tabulated gives Roosevelt 11,896, La
Follette 3068. Taft 2972.,
The race between Senator Brown end

nomination is close while former

in the Democratic senatorial contest.
The Republicans have renominated
