PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.
How to Vote The Straight Democratic
Ticket.

Next Tuesday, November 8th, the
great national election will be held.
While this state is assuredly Demo-
cratic, and in consequence but little
interest is manifested by the average
voter; yet should every Democrat go
to the polls on that day and cast his
ballot for the electors who represent
his party; also for the nominee of the
party for congress and for the cOnSti-
tutional amendment.
In the event of the success of the
Republican party an effort will doubt
less be made to reduce the repreSen-
tation of tho southern states in the
national congress. This has been
proposed time and again, and is meet
ing with some favor in republican
ranks. Therefore, it behooves this
state as we'll as other southern states,
to poll their full vote to offset the
claims of the Crumpackers and Lodges
that more than one-half of the voters
of these states have been deprived of
the ballot. A large vote will add to
the strength of N congressman in
contending against such measures.
The amendment to abolish the
law requiring a census of the state tC
be taken every ten years should be
carried. The law is virtually dead
letter, and to carry out its provisions
would entail needless and heavy ex'
penditure, not justified in view of the
results to be attained.
We again urge every Democratic
voter in Grenada county to go to the
polls on Tuesday, November 8th, anC
cast his ballot for Democracy anC
good government. Every vote counts
in some manner, be it in doubtful
states, or otherwise. Exercise you
right af suffrage on the Sth.

Counsel Judson for an opinion in re-

and in referring to the interview Mr..
Judson said: -
II was asked II the city would
prosecute cases against the owners

right of any citizen to file a com
plant against law-breakers and that
was not disposed to avoid any Of

In connection with Mayor Boyd's

it in the neck at the time of the
trouble between Mayor Belt and the
police commissioners when the for
mer declared an emergency. Il took

said, and the result was that 1t cost

pensive to last me.

her using a crutch. This crutch she

1t is believed that the list of the
dead is greater than known at present,
as Beitel admitted several transients
during the early morning hours, who
have not yet been accounted for. If
so their bodies have been cremated and
their names will probably never be

An instance of heroism was that of
little Carrie Gaskell, an ll-year-old
girl, who had both legs crushed SO bad
ly that amputation is probable, in
trying to reach her father who had
been buried in the ruins and had re-
ceiyed fatal injuries.
The explosion was due to a weak
