about how long he had been voting, he
being led to do so by the statement of

ing a ballot for tn = 9 st 40 years. The
conversation in some way uninten

since the spring of 1884. And we had
all forgotten that Mr.. Cottle began
voting on Sept. s, 1851. his 21st birth

statistics will tell the whole story in

back that Dragging about Uncle Dan

have another try-perhaps he can land
some other championship.
