One of the best natured town meet
ings ever held in this town was that
of Tuesday last. While the vote
was not up to that of four years ago,

larger. The new system of voting
worked well, and it is believed will
grow in popularity. The contest on
Representative was well fought, and
while the Democrats put up their
man, and the leaguers
hung pretty closely, the Republi-
cans we're able to elect their man on
the first ballot. The vote was as fol-
lows "A. C. Davis, 3; VIM. D. Man
ming, 49, E. L. Noyes, 1919; L. E.
1855. Harrington ma
jority over all, 7. We give elsewhere
the vote for State officers and the
county ticket as far as canvassed.
