besimple, but for all this some prefer the Old

their favorite candidates. Tho township gave
a majority for the Republican ticket as usual.
The Prohibition vote was small, and the new
law had the tendency to make it so, as the
candidates named by the county convention
could not be printed on the ticket except by
petition, and some who would have voted for
them did not do so from this fact. SO much
