the returns were shown in the

A large crowd gathered in the
court house to receive the returns
as they were received over the
wires. Considerable interest was
manifested in the election news
and there was frequent cheering
as a voter’s favorite forged to the

The result of the Representa

ly hour in the night, as the polls
throughout the county closed at
4 p. m.
