OF THOSE WHO FALL IN Straw Ballot in Favor of Wilson Result Considered Significant Because of scanner In Which vote Was Taken and la View of Xaater Developments. Aberdeen. Wash, Sept. 15. Recently a straw ballot, was taken In a real estate office here, the results of whi:h, so far as they pertained to the state primary election, were published. The results of the balloting for president were not made public. When the ballots were cast they gave Wilson 36 and Hughes 26. This is considered significant from the fact that the straw vote on United States senator gave Poindexter 20 and Hum phries 16, and from the further fact that in 1912 Chehalls county gave Wil son 19 S3 votes, Taft 3065 and Roose velt 1847. The straw ballot was taken in an office which Is a political rendezvous, and Aberdeen is recognized as the ban ner town of the banner standpat county of Washington, a county which polled more votes for Taft In 1912, population considered, than any coun ty In the nation. Considering tha fact that In 1912 the combined Taft-Rooso- velt votes were nearly four times thore polled by Wilson, the straw vote of 86 to 26 In Wilson's favor Is con sidered most significant, especially In view of the circumstances under which It was taken. The efforts of the Old Guard bosses of the state to read Senator Poindexter out of the party and deny him the right to become a candidate for le- election without their permission, the snubbing given him during the visit ox Lunnts fi. nugnes to tne state, as well as tha treatment of Governor Johnson In California, have apparently turned the Progressives against the old line element. Information gleaned "m aMsrii conversation snows a surprising drift towards President Wilson and his friends feel that the aeieat or Humphrey is a good omen ior me, wiison causa in November.
