With this amount purchase a silk banner to bs given to the township casting the largest per cent of its vote for Bryan | for president. John said that while | his township would cast 95 per cent | of her vote for Bryan, he didn’t ex-' pect to capture the banner, as he | had been reliably informed that one | |township had only two McKinley men. i J.

He epent about two weeks visiting in Bath and Mont- | | gomery counties and reportsa bright | outlook in those counties for the | democratic ticket. He said the best | posted politicians in Bath estimated | that 200 republicans in that county | | would vote for Bryan and about 50/ | democrats will vote the gold stand- | lard ticket, if one is placed in the fied. They hoot at the idea of Mc |Kinley carrying the state. Mr. Walker says he never saw the crop) proapecta look better in that portion | of the state.

A bet of $1,500 on Bryan against $3,000 on McKinley was made in dry goods circles last week. A Mr. | Cone of the Cone Exporting Co., of New York City took the McKinley end. It appears that he is rabid on the subject of the gold standard and was making all sorts of cracks at the store of Rice, Stix & Co.’s who are mostly Bryan men and are playing him up to the limit. Mr. Cone wanted to bet Nothing would suit him but a bet and in his anxiety to get it he offered 2 to 1 on McKinley. This was too good a thing to let go and the boys hopped nto it like a June bug onto a potato vine. In a very short time $1,500 in cold cash was tendered Mr. Cone, which he promptly covered witha check for $3,000. A stakeholder was agreed upon znd the bet goes. Adyertised Letter List. Butler P.
