Yesterday morning the streets wcre
filed with printed hand-bills. The voter
had to be reached and that Immediately
and SO this method was employed to put
the fragrant issues before him. The streets
were soon covered and the ground around
the polling places last night looked the

against Clement. Clement put out bill
Monday evening to the effect that John B.
Carey had not subscribed to the Doid
packing house, but that the Carey Lum-
Der company had subscribed $500 and given
it in lumber. This was printed on a pale

This coup was followed by other hand
bills equally poignant and amusing.
