LARGEST VOTE YET
Nearly 1000 Votes Cast In Fair
Contest.

nearly lOOO votes Cast IN FAIR
Contest.
The past week has been record
breaker in the voting contest for
tickets to the Portland fair. Over
900 votes were cast and a material
change was effected In the stand
ing of candidates. In the First
district Miss Brown was advanced
to first place as was Miss Robbie in
the Third. In the Second district
Miss Lula Nickel still has good
lead, but little energetic work
might easily bring any one of the
others to the front. There is a
voting coupon in every issue Of the
paper besides 30 votes are given
for every dollar paid on every sub
scription SO it is very easy to get
few hundred coupons. The votes
are counted each week by J. I.
Qverraan, Frank Rice and r. II.
Hartman and this will be continued
until 5 O'Clock on the evening of
July 4th, when the last count will
be made and the winners notified.
