Rexall Straw Vote Proves Correct.

Rexall Straw Vote Proves Correct.
Presidents Wilson's victory at the
polls yesterday is a striking vertical
ton Of the prediction made by this
newspaper long before election day.
Three weeks ago, the 5000 members
of the Rexall Druggists Association,
of which the C. A. Jack Drug Co. is
a member, began to take q straw vote
Of their customers. The members of
the association being scattered all
over the United States, were able to
reach 951, 1896 votes drawn from all
walks of life. It was the biggest
straw vote ever taken and was made
possible only by the national character
of the organization.
The druggists throughout the coun-
try mailed or telegraphed the results
of the votes cast by their customers
to the national headquarters of their
organization in Boston and which. were
posted in the 5000 Rexall stores, and
published simultaneously in the lead
ing newspapers Of the country.
:. The first straw vote bulletins sent
out October 26th, showed Wilson in
the lead THE second bulletin, issued
October 9th, showed Hughes in the
lead by one electoral vote. From that
date each slId every bulletin recorded
Steady gains for Wilson, both in the
popular and electoral vote. ,5N@a-;
The final straw VOTE dated Novem-
Der 9Th, gave Wilson 554 800 popular
votes against 396,896 for Hughes. On
electoral vote Wilson received 299 and
Hughes 232 of the 266 necessary to
elect. l.
The nationwide straw vote derived
its value from it's strictly non-partisan
character. The Rexall druggist, with
out regard to personal preferences,
furnished to the national headquarters
of their association, The United Drug
Company, accurate figures of each
days balloting in their stores. At the
headquarters in Boston the ballots
were tabulated without fear or favor,
the sole idea being to call the turn
in politics before election.

For the first time in it's history
Princeton has several fairly passable
streets. Mayor Newbert is entitled
to all the credit for the same. To be
sure the taxpayers will have to foot
the bills, but what of it? It is money
we'll expended. Heretofore tens of
thousands Of dollars have been ex-
pended and we have practically moth
ing to show for it. The few thousands
that have been expended on the streets
by Mayor Newbert have brought re-
suits.

Edward Saxon of Greenbush is a
farmer who thoroughly appreciates
the value Of improved highways. Mr..
Saxon had $500 bushels of potatoes
this year, and hired the hauling of
them to market. AS the road between
his farm and Princeton is in good con-
dition the hauling cost him 2 cents a
bushel less than it would have cost
otherwise, which means clear saving
Of $74 cash on his potato crop alone.
This is more than enough to pay all
taxes, and he derives other benefits
from the road. Unimproved highways
are expensive.
