JimSmih.......vio.o 8 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.”? : | WITH THE PROCESSION l MKS. NETTIE C. HALL, (MOTBRRER ENTRRPRISE) NEWS EDITOR.
