The county campaign will continue
Monday, and on Tuesday the voters
will go to the polls from 9 a. m. tc
0 p. m. to vote for United States
Senator, state and county offices,
measures and official paper.
The close of the campaign finds
the Independents confident of vic
tory on Tuesday. They declare the
entire ticket will go over. Reports
from various parts of the state, from
Independents, predict that Governor

votes in the last week and that his
majority will be we'll up with that

in the Nestos administration by the
fine character of performance in
public office in the last ten months.

did not help the league ticket, but
rather disappointed many of his fol-
lowers of years ago by his changed
