sale that day.
We will positively not sell these
advertised items except between the
hours named, and in every instance,
sale will be cash. No G. 0. D., or
telephoned orders filled except at
regular prices.
We propose to have you look for
these items in the Friday paper, for
! if you happen to need these articles,
it viii most certainly bring you down
town.
You know we have never failed to
live right jam up to our claims, and
will only ask that you attend two or
three of these Friday sales, and it
will not be necessary for us to say
more.
We expect to be fair to everybody,
and will state just how much or
how many articles to be sold, and If
you happen to be late, and it is all
gone, it will be your fault. First
come, first served"
We expect big crowds to get used
to coming to these sales.

BRYAN CARRIES

Fulton County Gives Him
900 of 1t

Atlanta, Ca, Nov. (SpeciaD At

Fulton county, with two Atlanta
wards missing, gives Bryan majority

ried the first and fourth wards of At

the latter by votes over Bryan.

TAFT COULD NOT
BREAK SOLID SOUTH

The returns from the South were
| studied with especial interest as
Judge Taft had sincerely hoped to
break the democratic party's hold
upon that section Nothing indicative
of a revolution in southern politics
came, but the news from the North,
East, and West was adequate to
keep all in smiles
The presidential vote in the large
cities did not bear out the claims of
Gompers and other union leaders that
the mass of union labor would go
for Bryan The alliance with Com
pers appears to have assisted in fur
ther weakening Bryan with conser-
I vative business and Industrial inter-
ests, and apparently failed to bring
him the labor support that was prom
ised The general impression is that
there will be no further attempts to
influence union labor as a mass for
any presidential candidates
What Defeated Bryan
The general feeling throughout
the country that Bryan was unsafe
and dangerous to business interests
generally is held mainly responsible
for his third Waterloo For the past
fortnight Republican organs and
newspapers laid stress upon this as
serting vociferously that Bryans ell
ection would seriously impede the re-
storation of confidence and the fur
ther resumption of industrial actiV-
ity. Workingmen on short time or
entirely without labor were appealed
to on this ground Manufacturers
asserted that a Taft victory meant
speedy return of business activity
throughout the land and steady and
profitable work for all This argu-
ment probably had as much weight as
any influence at work in the closing
stages of the campaign and inter-
mingling with covert threats of a sus-
pension of work in many industries
or reduction of wages assisted in
bringing about the Republican vic
tory.

here. The amendment establishing
the Confederate service pension was
for ratification 521; against ratifica-
ton, $50; majority of III.
The vote for the county police
amendment was practically the same.
The vote here had been counted out
before o'clock.
The vote given Hon Dudley M.
Hughes for Congress was very com
plimentary, leading the ticket here.
Mr.. Hughes received total of sol
votes, or six more than did Bryan
and the balance of the democratic
ticket. q
While the vote in Sumter was not
as large as desired thes general result
as to Bryan and Hughes is gratifying.

SUMTER Is FOR BRYAN
NEARLY TWO TO ONE
As Indicated by Court
house Vote.

BY majority vote of more than
two to one Americus went for Bryan
and democracy yesterday and this
handsome lead will be increased when
the result from all of the county
precincts is received this morning
and consolidated
At the courthouse the total vote
stood as follows.
Bryan 585, Taft 272, Watson IS,
Chafin 2.
The combined opposition vote is
292, thus giving Bryan a plurality of
293 votes, or one more than two
to one vote
This result is highly gratifying to
the white democrats of Americus.
particularly in view of democratic
lithargy, combined with the effective
work done by the emissaries of the
Taft party among the negroes. )
The vote evidences the fact that a
very large majority of the white
citizens are still for p8re and unde-
filed democracy

TAFT SWEEPS COUNTRY
LIKE A WHIRLNIND
Bryan Makes Little, If Any, Bet
ter Showing Than Parker
Did i'm 1904
Solid South Furnished Great Bulk of Democratic
Vote, Which Cannot Exceed ISl.

New York, Nov. 3-(Special) The
country as whole with the excep-
tion of the solid south, turned its
back on Bryan for the third time in
today's election. From every section
comes reports of an overwhelming
Republican triumph and the election
of Taft as the next president by a
majority in the ELECTORAL college but
little, if any below that of four years
ago, when Roosevelt received three
hundred and thirty-six electoral votes
to one hundred and forty for Parker.
In some states there was a slight
betterment in the democratic vote,
but no where from the beginning of
the returns was there anything to
give hopes of checking of the tide
that had set in for Taft in every
section except the South.
The greatest surprise of the election
was the victory of Taft in Greater
New York, the metropolis giving the
Republican candidate five thousand
majority.
The victory of Taft in the state was
so overwhelming that Hughes was
carried through on the flood and re-
elected governor by a majority plac-
ed at twenty thousand, -Taft's ma
jority probably being a hundred thou
sand greater
If union labor adhered to Bryan
there must have been tremendous de-
fections on other classes Of votes.
In Maryland and New Jersey there
was some decrease apparent in Dem
ocratic majorities but nowhere suf-
ficient to jeopardize Republican vic
tory in those states.
AS in the elections four, eight and
twelve years ago the early returns
were accepted as clearly Indicating
the final result. there being no signs
of any trend of popular opinion tow
ard Bryan in the east, was taken to
indicate similar condition else
where, and as>soon as it became ap-
parent that New York state would
give a great majority for Taft the
news of Republican victory was
flashed from all the newspaper of
fees to the enormous crowds that
thronged the streets.
In the metropolis the defeat of
Chanler for Governor awakened more
regret than the defeat of Bryan, the
support of the former by Tammany
having been far more intense than
its support of Bryan
BY many Taft's victory in the me-
tropolis itself is construed as plain
proof of a deal in favor of Chanler..
Outside of the general result the
greatest interest was centered in
the gubernatorial fights in New York
New Jersey and Minnesota.
Hughes is reelected in New York
and indications are that Fort, whose
attacks on race track gamblers, Sun
day law yiolators and law-breaking
corporations have put him in the
same class as Hughes, has been re-
elected governor of New Jersey.
Returns up to 9 o'clock told moth
ing definite of the Minnesota battle,
but indications point to governor
Johnsons reelection The reform
governor appears to have been trium-
phant in the race for reelection.

Light Vote in the County

The vote in Sumter, as estimated
upon that at the courthouse, seemed
rather light for such heavy registra-
ton. The result at the county pre-
cincts is not known as yet, but the
total will scarcely add more than 300
or $50 to the vote here
There are eight county precincts,
and the vote of these will be brought
in this morning and consolidated by
the executive committee.
Two of these heard from yesterday,
unofficially, gave. 7 the democratic
ticket good majorities.
Phe voting at the courthouse pro-
ceeded slowly throughout the day and
at no time was great interest mani
Tested. The Bryan vote came in
slowly, but the result showed that it
came in volume sufficient to make
him winner
The colored vote, as expected, was
practically solid for Taft num-
Der of white voters likewise support

SHENANDOAH VALLEY.

Aug. 6-rhe weather this week has
moderated from the extreme heat of
the preceding month greatly to the
relief of suffering humanity. The
valley seems to have had less degree
of heat than some other parts of the
county, but no one cares to have it
any hotter No damage has been re-
ported to the fruit crops, except to
ripen a little faster than was con
venient to those handling the crop,
but vegetables suffered in some in-
stances as the supply OF irrigation
water is low.
The thresher began work this morn
ing, the long delay being from the
late arrival of the new separator. 1t
is reported that there is such seri-
GUS shortage of water in the valley
that some of the ranchers may not be
able to supply enough for the thresher
outfit. Many wells have Iun low and
springs are shrinking. The supply
from the Hayward cOmpany's ditch
was shut off the first of this month,
which leaves those who were depend
ing upon that supply in an uucom-
Portable position.
