The White Mountain Hammock Chair
hhers from all other stationary or reclining
hairs in that it is better, stronger and simp-
er, is adapted to the house, lawn, porch or
amp, and is just chuck full Of quiet com
ort ard blessed rest. Is far superior to the
gsmmock in every way, and can be put up
g as to be always in the shale.
By its peculiar construction it is balanced
in all positions, requiring no fastenings to
keep it in place. The ~toot-rest can be
quicblyand easily adjusted to suit the short
5. or taliest persons. The seat is made OF
,iroDg canvas, fitting perfectly the entire
iengih, without drawing the clothing tightly
around the body, thus making it much
cooler than a hammock; while the annoy
snce of catching buttons, tearing down the
aides hair, or in any way displaying the
limbs is avoided.

Further comparison OF the more complete re-
turns perfectly sustains the conclusions reached
on the morning after the election, in regard to
the relative importance of the Prohibition and
the Stay -at-h home vote. IN fifty counties, Of
which complete returns of the vote for leading
candidates have been published, the vote for
Davenport was 90 $50 less than the vote for
Blaine, or 1876 per cent. In the same counties
the vote for Hill was 81 .j97 less than the vote
for Cleveland, or 11.3 per cent. This compare
lively small difference in the number Of voters
who failed to cast their ballots at the late cleo
ton turned the scale.
As to the Prohibition vote, the com
plete returns from forty three counties
show that it was only 2,7s7 more than the
vote cast for st. John in the same counties
last year. In all the remaining counties, the
Prohibition vote last year was 6,327, and if it
shOIld increase in those counties as in the
forty three already reported, it would still fall
short of 90 900, and would account for a diver
sion of less than 1000 vOtes from the other
parties. But a comparison OF the returns by
coun lies already shows clearly that in this State.
as in Ohio, much larger proportion than
hitherto of the Prohibition vote was drawn
from the Democratic ranks. Hence the change
against the Republicans can have been but little
due to that cause. The Republican ticket was
defeated. primarily by the assistance Of that
negative quantity, the loud-voiced "holier-
than-thou" journals, which drove away from
the Republicans great many more votes than
they were able to influence in favor OF anybody
But even that misfortune would not have been
enough if the Republicans in the interior had
cast their full vote.
