lievsd that the republicans have elected

the entire ticket. The only cut on the
entire ticket is on the head, and that is
not greater than prevailed generally

ago, not a precinct of the twenty nine

majority. The vote in the county was
light IS compared with the presidential
election. There was fully 30 per
