A FEW wears AGO tha city Of I.en;au;llo ...o.t |

A FEW years ago the city Of Louisville went
Democratic on the congressional ticket by
10000. On Tuesday it returned Republican
majority. Free trade and war on women
proved too much for the voters of that city.
1t is evident that Louisville is getting tired
of following after the slow coach of De-
mocracy, and thinks of getting on the high
way of progress with other cities

men were deceived by the leaders. The man
agement of the third party was thoroughly
dishonest.
