Election day has come and gone, and the
excitement attending 1t has subsided. A big
crowd was here on that day, but good order
prevailed generally at the polls. A number
of ladies dispensed soup,sandwiches pies etc,
for a small sum; the proceeds to be given to
the church. We are sorry our Republican
candidate for Representative was defeated;
but of course, r. c. Stevenson, the Demo-
cratic candidate who won, is bOnOred and e.
spected in this community, and will, no doubt,
fiji the office with credit to himself and his
party

ON Thanksgiving night a supper will be
held in the Town Hall for the benefit Of the
church. The supper is in charge ofth la
dies, which fact IN Itself is guarantee of
good supper. Come and aid them in "a worthy
cause.
