Bryan gets 127 more votes ia Aon Arbor city taan Fisher got, while McKiuley gets 296 more than Rich. In only three townships did McKinley gain on Rich's majority of two years ago. These were Pittsfield, 3; Saline, 6, and ypsilanti town, 6. The Bryan gain or MoKiuley loss in the ether' 1 7 townships as compared with the majorities of 1894 was as follows: Ann Arbor, 6; Augusta, 87; Bridgewater, 27 ; Dexter, 35; Freedom, 14; Lima, 16; Lodi, 9; Lyndon, 35; Mnaohester, 29; Northfield, 47; Salem, 24; Scio, 58; Sharon, 20; Superior, 37; Sylvan, 112; Webster, 83; York, 104. It will be seen that Sylvan shows the largist gain, 112, while York is a close second. In proportion to the total vote Webster shows the largest gain. Summing up the comparison with 1894, we may add that Bryan gets 1196 more votes than Fisher got, wbile McKinloy gets 544 more than Rich received. It may be added that the pro hibition vote decreased 295, and the people's vote, 126 of two years ago, has been merged in the Bryan vote, while this year the new nacional party gets 40 votes and the Palmer ticket 198.
