| While the election is the one subject
Of discussion and all men were busy
hunting up and registering the friends of
their cause, business has been what may
be called dull. Yet there was more

! have been unusually busy and the dry
nearly all the time. The hardware deal
ers report that trade has been exceedingly
good. This is cheering outlook. The
| majority of the business men look for
