Reports from all parts of the state indicate that a surprisingly heavy Tote is being polled. | ‘There were many predio- tions that under the new ballot law the vote would not be #0 heavy as in previous years, but there is every indication that the largest vote ever recorded will be exceeded today. There is much interest in the uew ballot system and this is apparently bringing out all of the votera. REabING, Pa., Nov. 8.—There are strong in- dications that the full vote will not come out. Reports from a number of districta where Ger- man voters predominate say that many will not go near the polls at all.

Favorable Weather Prevailed Throughout the State and Citizens Did Their Duty. Curcaco, Nov. 8.—The anticipations raised by the heavy registration in this city have been fully justified by the unprecedented vote cast up to noon today. The weather was clear and cold, and the - ing booths opened promptly at 6 o'clock, as the law directs, but even before that hour there were knots of voters \clustered around the voting places ready to deposit their votes. It is safe to say that fully one-half of the entire vote was cast, before 10 o'clock, and save fora few straggling ballots the ju tnd clerks had little to do after. noon, ines junction to vote early was generally obeyed. Little can be said as to the complexion of the Vote, further than that the {indications are ots iy party vote on na- S25 oa te ® general fou please so far -as the county of are concerned.
