There is now 40 question that the
entire republican ticket in this county
is elected. The vote is still close on
assessor. but Jacobs will pull through
by a majority of 80. All but four pre-.
cincts have been heard from and these
give Jacobs a majority of SO over
~Thirkeldson. The precincts upon
which the full returns have not yet
come in are Keystone. Mandel, Sanders
and Bosler. OF these four, Keystone
gives Thirkeldson 10 majority and
Mandel l majority. The other two 60
for Jacobs, Sanders by a majority of 10
and Bosler a majority of 6. These fig.
ures will cause Jacobs majority to be
reduced from SO to 80. Though the
full returns on these precincts have
not been received the information con.
corning the vote in each of them or
assessor is accurate nd reliable.
Some Of the precincts that were ex-
pected to give Thirkeldson good ma,
~jorities have failed to do so. The sue.
cess of Jacobs even by the small mar.
gin. makes the victory of the republi,
a ticket complete and sweeping.

What Would You Give.

To be cured Of catarrh? II you or your
friends have this disease, you know
how disagreeable it is. It's symptoms
are inflamed eyes, throbbing temples,
ringing noises in the ears. headaches,
capricious appetite, and constant dis.
charge Of mucus. Fortunately its cure
is not a question of what you will give,
but what you will take. If you will
take Hoods Sarsaparilla, the great
constitutional remedy, which thorough
ly purifies, enriches and vitalizes the
blood, you may expect TO be complete
ly and permanently cured. The good
blood which Hoods Sarsaparilla
makes, reaching the delicate passage
the mucous membrane, soothes and
rebuilds the tissues and ultimately
cures all symptoms Of catarrh.
