Hmil for register of deeds. Mr..Moon had a lead on Harris at one time this morn- ing but the present office holder gradually caught up and on the fcount of forty-six precincts was ahead by eighteen votes. The surprise of the campaign is in the vote given Andrew Johnson for sheriff, He has received, so far, but few votes less than W. B, Stew- art and Stewart received many votes from women. Johnson has received a larger percent of the total" vote for his office than any other candi- date. Debs is running a good second !l the county and there are but four votes between Roosevelt, Debs and Wilson. Taft is making a bad third and Chafin is barely heard. It is | claimed that Wilson is strong in the - { upper end of the county and that the Baudette and Spooner vote will carry _ the county for the Democrats. All parties concede that the Socialists have a good chaance of carrying the { county for Debs. Eberhart has a safe lead here for governor and on the state ticket the Republicans are leading all along the line. The contest for associate justices is close in this county and it appears that the contest for rep- resentative is close between O'Neil, | Ritchie and Pladson.
