Show KUMEL ANDBCRT IN IT. The Canvassers' . Count of the Vote of Salt Lake County Makes This Showing. TIE IN THE VOTE TOE TEEASUEER. Question as to Whether the Body Can Go Behind the Returns A Contest Con-test Certain. Today J. IT. Kuinel and Andrew Burt are rejoicing and making merry in spirit. And Henry Barnes and Henry Page are correspondingly depressed. Everytime the spirit of llumel or the spirit of Burt leaps up and cracks its heels together aud moves its owner to go and take a drink, the ghost of hope in Page and Barnes groans and is wretched. For today the count of Salt Lake county is completed, and Messrs. Rumel and Hurt find themselves in the happy condition of being elected recorder re-corder and sheriff respectively, while the last hope of Page and Barnes has gone glimmering. It was thought when the returns came, in on election night that Humel and Burt had won, but things were in such a chaotic condition that nothing could bo known until the Utah commission should receive the report of its canvassers. canvas-sers. Today tho canvassers roundod up the county, with tho following result: re-sult: For Clerk-C; K. Allen. Liberal, 3755; Fergus Ferguson; People's, 8740. For Recorder- Hcnrv Page. Liberal, 8717; J.H.

K. dishing, People's, 8723 It will bo seen that what at first glance appears to bo a tie appears in tho vote for treasurer. In the Third polo of the second precinct tho returns show on the abstract, which is certilicd to by Hie judges, that J. B. Toronto received re-ceived 71 votes while the tally-sheet, which has no signatures, gives him 77. The commission has been all day having hav-ing arguments tending to show that the abstract and not the tally-sheet must be taken as tboir authority. The Times report takes the voie as 77 as it stands on the memorandum now, but it appears ap-pears much more than probable that the cairvussers will conclude to ncccpt 71 as tho proper ligure. This will give Mr. Toronto but 3704 voles, will seat Mr. Galighcr and will, as a matter of course, cause a contest. There is bound to bo a contest in this case any way. M. K. Stone, Col. Ferguson, Judge Powers and Arthur Brown have been pouring arguiueut in upon the canvassers canvass-ers all day, tho former three endeavoring endeav-oring to convince the body that its duties are simply ministerial and that it cannot go behind the returns, and t hn l.ittun vhnrlincT them to acini for the ballot lioxcs or else accept tho memorandum in tho form of tho tally sheet over the abstract. ,. Doth sides have presented lots of law, the Liberals producing backing tu show that the board must take just what it sees and that a court of law is the ouly authority competent to scud for boxes and count The board adjourned this afternoon without taking any action in the matter. Tho votd as it appears is given herewith. here-with. There aro a few objections to be heard, aud the sheet has not been accepted ac-cepted as official, but the objections cannot alter the general result, with the exception of the case of Galigher and Toronto. Rumel and Hurt are the only People's party men who are surely elected, and the Liberals have about decided that it were unwise to attempt to quibble Rumel out by objecting to votes bearing the different, variations of his name, as J. H. Rumel, John II. Rumel, J. H. Rumel, jr., and John H. Rumel, jr. The combined vote gives the following follow-ing majorities: Allen. 15. Rumel, 73. Lynch, 127. Murphy. 80; plurality, 706. Burt, 221. Galigher and Toronto being tied, the action of the commission is necessary. If the abstract is correct, Toronto loses 6 votes, making his total 8704 to 3770 of Galigher. Brooks, 01. , Harris, 58. Caboon, 71. The average Liberal vote was 8766, the Peoples' 8754. The Liberal majority major-ity therefore averages 12. The city of Salt Lake gives a good, big Liberal majority, the vote being: Allen 81:10. Ferguson 24.V.I. Page ;i07S, Rumel 2Jil 7. Lynch 81 (S, Clive 2487. Murphy 8151. Keuner 1008, Hurd 587.
