The election Mondav resnlted iu a : large number of surprisus. In the local elections, the demoorats fared well, with the uotable exception of Manchester. Bnt on the state ticket and oounty school coiumissioner a big surprise awaited them in the shape of a división of the demooratio vote by which only abont two thiids of that vote was cast for ïaple, Parkill, or DeWitt. This carne about by hnndreds of demócrata mistaking the ticket on the ofBoial ballot bearing the old democratie heading for their ticket instead of the sivler dollar with its illegible inscription. The result oí this niistake is that Jndge Jjong oarries the county by the snrprising plurality of 1,641 and Lister defeats DeWitt by 1,509. The gold demooratio vofce of 213 last f all jumps to 1,352. As the gold democratie leaders advised their followers to vote the republicau ticket, this iuorease is due solely to juistakes in marking the ticket, which would, if the mistakes had not been made, have reduoed the repnblican inajoritien almost to the vanishing point. The vote on presideot in the county last fall was Bryan 5,348,; McKinley, 5,677; Palmer, 213. It will be seen that there is a big falling off in the vote, especially in the townsbips and that while Long's plurality is so large, it is but 283 more than the combined vote of Yaple aud Fooie. Tbe vote on Sapreine Jndge was as follows: FOK JUSTICE OP THE SÚFREME COUET. , . . , Yaple. Long. Foote. Ann Arbor City.
