The Observer obtained the
above result in taking a straw
vote on the candidates for gov
ernor. - A ballot ‘box was pre-
pared-yesterday afternoon;sealed
[and arropening made in the top.
iEvery citizen met, or found in
his place of business was given
an ofiportunity to write his bal
lot secretly and deposit in the
i box., :I‘he ballot box was taken
in the court house this morning
‘while the democrat mass meeting
was in session and every one
present was given the chance of
voting. Absolute . impartiality
‘was observed and we believe the
vote to be a pretty safedAndication
of the strength of the candi
dates, ‘» N
A large number of people re
{used to vote a? all. Some said
th not given the race for
}governor much thought and was
‘not prepared to vote. Itis prob
able that not more than two
thirds the people voted to whom
the opportunity was given, which
indicates that there is lots of
work to be done here by the can
didates. This was ¢&specially
true of the people from the count
ry. Most of them manifested
very slight familiarty with the
race for governor. |
“Yes, I congratulated the
wrong young lady—took the sis
ter for the bride and yet I've al
most raised those girls., It was
right in the A. & B. depot before
a whole crowd, It was very em
barrassing indeed with the proud
bridegroom standing by'—and
here Mother Eaterprise mopped
her face. Later on the old lady
was seen meandering down the‘
street chuckling to hereself.
“Say, do you know I phoned to a}
leading bar room this morning
inquiring if the speaker at the
other end of the phone was—well
never mind who, I will admit
that I tbought I was talking toa
leading minister in this city who,
all unconsious of any blunder,
was busy ia his study getting up
another good sermon, and by the
‘way be is a pronounced prohibi
‘tionst in bis view of -the saloon’
The question in my mind is
who is the joke, Ifancy the bar
tender thought it was himself
from the way that phone shut
off after an understanding took
place. You sge I unwittingly
left off one figure in calling up
the minister. P-l-e-a-s-e don’t
'iell on m=e.”? :
