Mr.. Bryan joined the porch party
after a time and heard the figures
read as they were taken from the
wires. He scanned the New York
returns closely, and the failure OF
the greater city to give him larger
majority was plainly disappointing
to the candidate.

made by the College authorities,
they have decided to establish
such a station in either Sherman

Is made available for the purpose
without cost TO the State.
Having received an inquiry
from Prof. Kerr wishing to know
what Gillian County has to offer
take the liberty Of calling q

very important matter. TO be held
in Condor at the Court House on
Tuesday Nov. 10, at 7:30 P. M.
As this is a matter that concerns
all sections Of the county the full.

Gus, Charles Il. Hughes being re-.

Taft has won by tremendous plu-

Tafts great plurality was due al
most wholly TO Democratic losses in
