In the official table, the vote at Greenbriar differs with tbe returns of The News and Herald. The official vote as declared by tbe committee gives Hoyt 25 at G-^'nbriar and McSweeney 37, whereas The News and Herald gave the latter 57 We have often noticed that some people make tbe figures 5 and 3 very much alike, and it i9 probable tbst in making the table the onmmitree mistook 57 for 37, and in this wav the error occurred. We feel I sure our figures are correct, for tbe uamber of ballots cast at Greenbriar are in favor of its correctness. If The News and Herald is correct McSweeney has carried the countj' by 16 majority; by the official table Hoyt has carried the ccnnty by a msjoritv of 4 votes. It i.? really immaterial which is correct, foi it dots not bfFect tbe result in the State. . S100 Keward S100.
