Majority for Court House 267.

The official canvas of the votes on the
court house proposition increased the
majority in favor of the court house
from 234 as reported last week to 267.
The principal change was in Blooming
ton township, the vote being q for and
III against the court house instead of
30 for and 148 against. The county Of
ticials are being flooded with inquiries
from prospective bond purchasers and
architects, and the chances are that
there will be lively competition when
the bonds are sold, and that they will
bring good premium.

For the reason that p. w. Clements
Herald and his Literary Bureau have
somewhat overfed the public on Clement
political mush and Herald political tru-
isms almost any statement emanating
from either source is harmless and does
not attract widespread serious attention.
However, from humorous point of view
some of Mr.. Clements newspaper utter
ances rank high in their particular class
this one for instance: Two political
state conventions in Burlington in session
and not boss In sight"
This is a real picture puzzle Find the
Boss"
There was Zenas II. Ellis of Fair Haven,
chairman of the Clement convention. Find

There was the now justly celebrated
Edward ]. Hall of Bennington Draft fame,

Find the Bossl
There was Howard L. Hindley, of cell
ebrated Clement Literary Bureau fame.
chairman Of the committee on Clement

Well-paid ENJOYS had done scout duty
