AS forecasted in our last issue
as a result of the battle of ballots
on last Tuesday the principals, as
advocated by the Republican
party swept the entire country,
even poor old Missouri has decided
to permanently break the moorn-
ings which have held her fast to
the old dame Of democracy and
join the mighty force of progress
as set forth by the party of pro-
gress.
The black phalanx rallied to
the standard through out the
country and on this occasion as
in the past, proved themselves
loyal to the great party of pro-
gress and prosperity. Locally
there is no question but that the
splendid organization prevented
the democrats from getting al
most a clean sweep on the county
ticket, and reduced Bryan's plu-
rality to less than 100 votes. Sc
all along the line the colored vot-
! er in the campaign of 1908 has
Jrung true.
