taken and read to the large

Mr. Moore stayed on the job until
$3.50 the next morning and until
the crowd had deserted the build
ing. The house was thrown open
free to everybody, there were
plenty of good seats and refresh
ment stand in the lobby proved to
be great convenience. While
many contributed to the expense
fund much credit is due Mr..

Tuesday's Election

Tuesdays national election
seems to have been the east agains 81
the west. Hughes carried New
York and all eastern states except
Maryland and Ohio but took in
Illinois, Iowa and Minnesota in the
middle west.
The returns Nup to midnight
Tuesday showed Hughes had won
but later returns indicated that it
would take the official count to
determine the result. AS, the re-
turns were reported Wednesday,
one candidate would be in the lead
and then the other.
The daily papers of Thursday
morning gave Hughes 259 electoral
votes, and Wilson PSI with North
Dakota, California and New
Mexico, with a combined vote of
21, still in doubt.
In Linn county it was a clean
sweep for the democrats, every
candidate being elected by from
128 to SIS majority. The county
was strong for. Wilson, the rail
road trainmen gulping down the
eight hour wage raise as if it was
real food. Lamm was a strong
favorite, losing the county to
Gardner by only Sc votes.
The highway engineer act was
knocked out by big majority.
The county vote on the other two
amendments has not yet been
given out.
In the state the prohibition
amendment was beaten by the st.
Louis vote, Kansas City and the
country being carried by the dry
vote.
The result for governor is close
with Gardner in the lead.
The Gardner land bank amend
ment was badly showed under.
The last report just before go
ing to press Thursday afternoon
was that California had gone for
Hughes, insnring his election.
