defeat of their candidate some of

niece of Colonel DAVIS and who
refrained from taking any active
part in the campaign.
The Democrats claim that
Davis majority will be from LOO

already show a majority of more
than 500 and the complete and
revised figures are supposed TO
raise this several hundred. The
result completely upsets the nor.
