There was never a Ouieter cleo
ton in Ormsby than yesterday. The
candidates were al out working and
their friends were doing business, but
the excitement CT Ell old tine hot con
test in Ormsby was missing.
There were many teams out and
picking up the voters ard the Rep
ublicans livened UP things somewhat
with an automobile

Kinney appears to have wen at the
present writing and his friends claim

election lby about twenty majority
with Dow third with less than one hun
dred votes.

pire is certainly the weight of power
