MR.. BRAsHER's IMPROVED
CHANCES.

The withdrawal of Senator Hick-
man makes McLean county one Of
toe battle-ground q ,he district.
rhe6istri0utiop Of his votes cannot
be safely estimated at this time.
Mach win depend upon senator
Hickman S own course in the matter
Judge Taylor naturally expects
+ 10 pet majority of the Mclean
county votes, but it Is believed that
+ Senator Hickmans personal in
T auenoe VIII be given to Mr. Stanley,
upon the idea that Taylor's can
didacy shut him out of the race. If
he realizes that the finish is to be
between Taylor and Brasher, he
may throw his strength to Brasher,
because the success OF his next
door neighbor would lesson his own
chances in the near future.
Mclean county happens to be
adjoining the home counties of all
three of the candidates, and is
therefore common territory, and its
1900 votes are not liable to greatly
benefit any one man. 1t is perhaps
fair to conclude that a practical
offset will be the result.
In other parts of the district, it
IS evident to the most casual OBJ.
server that the Hickman votes will
20 to Brasher The anti-Staniey
'ote in Webster was divided be-
.ween Brasher and Hickman and
will now get practically u
Ill of the votes in that county i
hat would have gone to Hickman.
As Judge Taylor's home paper
asst week conceded Webster to Bra "
her, it is now a practical certainty =
hat he has, at this writing, by far Il
he best claim to that county. ,
10 Christian county the contest =
ad narrowed down to a choice be- L
ween Brasher and Hickman and d
be latter's withdrawal removes .
ny formidable opposition to Bra g
her in this county. Mr. Brasher T
pent last week in this county and n
'as everywhere assured by those D
lodged to Hickman that he would 5.
ct their support if Hickman drop ID
ed out. 1t is a far estimate to say tc
lat at least 500 votes have been n
dded to Brasher's strength in =
hristian and his vote in the county b
lay now be safely figured at 1000
otes.
In Union county Senator Hickman {
vas not a strong factor in the race I
md conditions there will not be al
cred materially. Stanley will
probably carry the county, with
8rasher a close second.
There are $500 votes north OF
5reen river from which Taylor
must draw his greatest strength,
With Stanley and Brasher dividing
he scattering votes. South OF
ireen river there are 16.500 votes
D be contested for 6y Stanley and 6
1rasher. On a basis of three
uarter vote to be cast, these fig q
res would be changed to about $500 9
orth and 1880 south of Green :
liver. The man who wins must get {
bout 1000 of the 1920 votes, or
j that proportion if the vote is Z
mailer.

Upon inquiry, we found that there had arrived at his house Q sweet mes- senger of peace and love, beau tiful little maiden. The mother and daughter are doing well and when papa weighed the little darling, he found she opposed the attraction of gravity nine (9) pounds worth. May she ever bring sunshine and bliss for Mr. and Mrs. L. Berry Smith is the fond wish of the News.
