AS GOES MAYORlLTY so GOES
THE TICKET.

The Democrat already have a
yell coming to them and can take it
whenever they get ready.

substantiate its assertion.
A great deal of money changed
hands on the mayors race, and the
boys were out early collecting their
bets this morning. The Independent
Democrats are reported to have
cleaned up on the results between
four and five thousand dollars. Most

The News-Democrat can be credited
by some of the Democrats with the
responsibility of leading them astray.
After last nights foolish report that
all indications pointed to Harrison
carrying the city by over 400, some

found their money covered. One bet
of $3.50 to $50 on Harrison was
made as late as O'Clock, and I'm
about 80 minutes that mans pipe
went out and he felt himself touched
for $3.50. OF course he is grateful
