Election day is here and by the time we reach you the big battle of 1904 has practically been won or lost. It has been a notable campaign and rhe democrats are proud of the dean and worthy fight they have made. From reports obtained we are assured that a big vote has been polled, not only here, but over the entire state and Nation. The result will be known within a few hours. The democrats of Adams county have been on their tiptoes all day and feel assured that they will more than hold their own. At this hour the voting is practically over and we have but one request, the last of the campaign—for all democrats: If you haven't voted, hurry ; if you know anyone who hasn't, get him in the polls before six o’clock. It may mean much. Additional Locals. Miss Vina Sakmiller, of Geneva, returned to her home this afternoon, after making a visit in Fort Jennings, Ohio.

Stock Sale. Fred Reppert, the well known auctioneer, of Decatur, is highly pleased beoause’he has been chosen to help sell the live stock in the big Nabor-Lea Hereford sale at Treaty, near Wabash, Nov. 15th. Mr. Nabor, the proprietor of this big breeding farm, is compelled to move his family to a warmer climate, hence will sell all his fine Hereford cattle. Several farmers in this county have already some stock from this fine herd and they pleased with Jheir cattle, as well as the treatment they got from Mr. Nabor. Those whom we recall are A. J. Smith, Titus Uhlman August Walters, and John Boocher. These men all talk of attending this sale Nov. 15th. This county and this part of the state should become a center for fine cattle. If there were twenty breeders in the county it would attract buyers here, more than one or two breeders could do. Decatur I ought to have a combination sale every year where breeders could each sell from one to ten head of ' tine cattle. Those who have barn ' room and some roughness should j not fail to take a day off and attend 1 this sale. The round trip can be 1 made in a day byway of Huntington or Marion. Electric cars leave Marion and Wabash for Treaty every hour. For further information ask Fred Reppert or write to G. M. Nabor, Wabash, Ind. Twelve months’ time without interest. Your herd will almost double before you need to pay for the cattle. Twenty farmers in this county should jump at this opportunity. . 256dCwl
