BRIGHT FUTURE SEEN
Swanson Announces Result Of Vote
 Analysis

Analysis
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-Analysis of the presidential vote was declared today by Senator Swanson. democrat, Virginia, chairman of the speakers bu- reau of the democratic national commit tee, to show most encouraging future prospects for the Democratic party" despite the large plurality for President Coolidge.
 Senator Swanson pointed out that in 13 states which gave its electoral votes to the republican, the combined popu- lar vote for John w. Davis and Sena- ator La Toilette, independent candidate, was greater than for President Coolidge. As a result, he said, "there are 235 electoral votes in the electoral college, where the people clearly indicate an tagonism to the existing republican ad- ministration, lacking 31 votes of ma jority of the college"
 A change of between and 6 per cent fin the popular vote in other states car ried by President Coolidge would have increased the opposition electoral vote by 53, or a majority, Senator Swanson said.
 Study of the vote revealed, however, Senator Swanson declared, "that third party but tends to aid the re- publican party and its continuance in power"
 "The returns clearly indicate" he concluded, "that the Democratic party has a constituency in the country which will give it's support and restore it to power if it conducts itself wisely, broadly and periodically, and shows it. self worthy of responsibility and power. A majority of the people in the United States favor the Democratic party and Its principles if they are adhered to and followed"

SING SING M GRIP
 OF PUZZLE CRAZE

OSSINING, N. Y, Dec. 27.-The crossword puzzle craze has gripped the inmates of Sing Sing prison. The men in the death cells, especially, fund relief from morbid thought in solving the puzzles. All through the day and part of the night they sit with newspapers and pencils furnished by the guards. The pencils are collected again by the guards when the puzzles are done or time is up, for fear the doomed men may attempt to use them to destroy themselves.
 Joseph and Morris Diamond, brothers, convicted of the murder of two bank messengers in Brooklyn, spend more time with the puzzles than any of the other convicts. Warden Lewis k. Lawes looks on the pastime as beneficial one.
 "We are getting many requests for dictionaries" he said. And we are en- couraging it because we think it is a good thing"

The Wreck contemplated her for a
few seconds. He wondered just how
she was going to take the news.
He's a good liar; he piled it on.
And he pulled all the old stuff about
influence, and how much taxes he
pays, and all the New York dope.
He made me thank God I came from

Gould you get any idea of what's
being done about it?" asked Sally,
with the practical aspects uppermost
in her thoughts.
"Oh, there's a posse getting on the
job" said the Wreck, YEARLY.
"A posse" unused Sally, nodding.
Yes; I'd imagine that. Who did he
have on the phone?"
HE was talking to the sheriff"
THE sheriff. Uh-huh. Well, that
means"
Sally stopped and stared at the
Wreck. Something had started her.
What county are We in?" she de.
manded.
He shrugged. He never tried to

Montana sheriff and a posse hard on
his heels, but Sally did.
Even at that, she did not believe
they would be caught. Surely, she
told herself, there would be a way
out Of things. 1t was not pursuit
and possible capture that disturbed
her and awakened every absurdly
conflicting emotion that lay within
her; it was the fact that Bob Wells
was the instrument of the law. That
Jared her in a most illogical but
effective fashion. Any other sheriff
might do his duty without protest
from Sally; but Bob Wells-why did

i g had plenty of other things to
J sep him busy. If he had not hustled
round and got himself elected sher-
IF, he could have ridden over to

have been on the train long ago. It
was a fool trick for him to get into
politics, thought Sally.
