Others are hopeful that the Presi-

ponents was set forth more accurately
in his last prediction address in
which he said that:
whoever is elected tomorrow will
become the President of all the peo-

Whether it was a coincidence or pre-
mediation, but every paper as well as The
Citizen, printed only the picture of Presi-
dert Roosevelt and ignored entirely that
of Vice-President Garner. Invariably in
former years all the papers published the
picture of the standard bearer side by side
without exception, but this custom uni
formly was dispensed with in 1886. at
least by the large number of newspapers
reaching this sanctum Immediately after
the election.
