Biggest Electoral Vote in Years

The election of Governor Woodrow
Wilson, of New Jersey, as President
and Governor Marshall, of Indiana
as Vice President. by a safe majority
OF electoral votes, was made certain
by the returns received from the
country at large. The Democratic
ticket has swept the country. carry
ing many rock-ribbed Republican
States. In the North as we'll as the
South, the West as well as the East
Wilson and Marshall achieved a sio-
nal and unprecedented triumph. Thev
will have an overwhelming majority
in the electoral college; the House Of
Representatives remains Democratic
by an increased majority and the
Senate is very close. Theodore
Roosevelt ran second, with President
Taft bad third. Indications are
that the Bull Moose carried Illinois.

and some far Western States. The
States that Taft carried are few and
far between. Maine, Massachusetts.
Connecticut, New York, New JERSEY.
Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia.
Indiana, Ohio, Wisconsin, Minnesota
and the Solid South roll up record
breaking pluralities for the Demo-
Garlic standard bearers, and the
latest indications from Pennsylvania
point to the carrying of that great
Republican State by Wilson. The
Democratic plurality in New York
will proably exceed $50, 600 and
meagre returns from the far West ern
States point to Democratic victories
IN unexpected quarters.
Polls Biggest Electoral Vote in Years
Wilson not only held the Democratic
party together, but he polled larger |
vote than that given to Bryan four
years ago. He has polled the biggest
electoral vote ever given a Democratic
for the Presidency. He has
oolled a greater electoral vote than
given the candidate of any party
since the Civil War. He seems to

hot political campaign has been on
hand, these people have made the
church service the first consideration.
The gossip of politics was not heard
around the church. We have had a
splendid revival, helpful to the church
as well as the ingathering of souls.

Death of Mrs. j. M. Phillips.

Last Monday, between 6 and : o'clock pm, at the Forrest City Hotel, after an illness of only six hours duration, Mrs l. NJ. Phillips gave up her life for a son. She leaves a llearbroken husband, little girl of three years and the newborn son, who will miss the loving care of a wife and mother.
 MT. and Mrs. Phillips were com paratively strangers in our midst, but they lacked not for care and attention from the good women of our city. All that medical skill and loving atten- tion could afford, was given, but was of no avail MT. Phillips is an en- ployee of the Southwestern Telegraph X Telephone Company, and his grief for nis loved one, who was so unex- pectedly taken away, was pitiful to listen to and words of sympathy seemed idle to his broken heart
 The remains were prepared for burial by Undertaken Stevens and shipped the same night, via Rock Island, to Rogers, Arkansas, her former home, for burial Mrs Mary Lancaster accompanied Mr Phillips

The good citizen will demand liberty for him self and as matter of pride he will see to it that all others will receive the liberty which he thus Claims as his own. Probably the best test of true love of liberty Ill any country is the manner in which mnorties are treated in that country Not only should there be complete liberty in matters of religion and opinion but complete liberty for each man to live his life as he desires provided only that in so doing he does not wrong his neigh bors. Wide difference of opinion in matters of religions political and social belief must exist if conscience or intellect alike are not to be stunted
 if there is to be healthy growth Bitter internecine hatreds based such differences are signs not of earnestness Of belief, but of that fanatacism which, whether religious or ani-religious, demo- cratic antdemocratie, is itself but manifesto tion of the gloomy bieotry which has been the chief factor in the downfall of % many nations"
