THE REPUBLICAN PARTY WINS IN THREE
STATES ONLY, IDAHO, UTAH
AND VERMONT
LINCOLN COUNTY is REPUBLICAN
RETURNS SHOW WILSON TO BE
THE BIG FAVORITE IN RACE
FOR PRESIDENCY.

The national and state election on
Tuesday passed off quietly and with
perfect order, but there was strong
undercurrent of excitement that con-
tinued until the polls we're closed
and the returns began to come in.
Owing to the complicated situation of
there being three tickets in the field
the most experienced fotecasters
were at sea- The Borah dope"
proved too strong and it is now evil
dent that goat might have been
elected to almost any place did he
bat hold on to the Borah coat-tails.
The returns on the national cleo
tion were the first to come in and it
early developed that Woodrow Will
sen had carried the country for
President by a tremendous plurality
The Republican vote in most states
appeared to be cut in two, with
Ruosevelt holding the larger half.
IN Pennsylvania, which was carried
BY Roosevelt, Taft was poor third.
Wilson carried all the New Eng
iend states except Vermont, also New
York, New Jersey. Ohio, Indiana,
Wisconsin, Kansas, Nebraska, the
Dakotas, California and Washington,
and the solid south, the later by a
tremendous vote.
From returns to date Taft has car
red only Utah and Idaho Roosevelt |
gets Nevada. At present writing no
figures on Oregon are at hand.
Missouri rolled up great major
lty for Wilson, as did all the So /
called doubtful states
In this state the Republicans have
,arried the state ticket.

Newspaper Space

Every line in a newspaper costs its publisher something. If it is to benefit some individual, he may fairly expect it to pay something. You do not go into the grocery store and ask the proprietor to hand you out ten pounds of sugar for nothing, even the grocer may be a personal friend and the gift may not be large one. If the beneficiary of advertising does not pay for it the proprietor has to settle the bill. Nevertheless many people cannot seem to learn that newspaper pays its expenses by the renting space and is just as much entitled to col lect rent for every day that space is occupied as you are of the house you rent to tenant. - Exchange
