Makes All Guess

cleaved an immense consignment Of
them at the recent election. Both what

plenty. Here are a'f6# things that
she did do: 3e

governor by about 10000.

Office.
Sent Warren G. Harding, Republican,
to the U. s. Senate by about $4,000.
Elected to national House of Repre-.
sentatives IL Republicans and 10 Dem
ocrats.
Sent to State Senate 10 Republicans
and 13 Democrats, with one still in
doubt, and to the State Legislature 81
Republicans and 46 Democrats.
Carried Home Rule by about $500.
Defeated Prohibition by about 10000
Defeated Woman Suffrage by nearly
100000.
Defeated Tax Amendment by more
than 100000.
The outcome has given men of al
parties something upon which to reflect
Democrats, victorious in the county, saw
the banners Of their state leaders traile(
in the dust. The Progressives watched
their vote dwindle to a degree that will
make it impossible for them to plac'
their party ticket on the next genera

Republicans are so dazed by the unex

where or when or how to jollify. W
venture to say that the vets hav
