When the early returns Camo in he made particular Inquiries regarding the state of New York and found much encouragement in tho gains ho was making upstate over the demo cratic vote of 1004, but as the figures continued to bo received, he rolled on dealer New York to offset the heavy Taft vote above the Harlem river Even In that he was bitterly diskp pointed, and ho soon ronllzzod that too j statu was hopelessly gono and with it hin prospects of being ??lectod. i _ _____ You w 111 lind bei tin. largest and best line of Hail Racks made, of solid oak. beautifully finished, In different designs and sizes at money saving prices, 8. & E.
