news,
All hail tomorrow sun. Victory is not
far off for some party. With the dawning
of the day will begin the balloting for the
various candidates for the Presidency. The
many skirmishes that have taken place will
pass from our recollection and the minds Of
all will be concentrated on the one great
battle Of the day. Tattooed as are the
various candidates, they all have their
friends who will vote for them. The strug-
will be a memorable one and may be at
tended With bloodshed. 1t behOoves every
voter to be careful and under no
circumstances should a fuss be raised. II
would be we'll for every citizen to procure
a ticket before he goes to the polls, and
thus save much hard feeling that is some
times caused by the partisan workers in the
various wards. Vest-pocket votes are the
best and safest. Most every voter has his
man selected, and if he manages to get a
ticket early he can fix it as it pleases him
best and shove it in his pocket. When he
steps up 10 the polls window he is ready for
business aud no one is the wiser. Let
there be a quiet election and : fair count.
