The race between Bryan and
Mckinley overshadows everything
else and the fight for county offices has
sunk into insignificance IN comparison.
In fact little or nothing is heard about
the probable result of the state. county

fore gone conclusion. The democrats
feel assured that the county and state
are theirs and if the republicans man
age to capture one or two offices in the
county they will be gratified. Interest
centers in the general election and
nothing else is talked about.
Nearly every one. too. has made some
