BEFORE NEW

I Continued from page One miles of the campaign Mrs. Hughes has hardly ever allowed her husband to get out of her sight" She has been constantly on the alert for symptoms of fag and her careful watching has enabled Mr. Hughes to finish the campaign stronger than he started. Nothing but silence came from- Mr. Hughes today. He is determined that his speech at Madison Square Garden shall be the last word of his campaign. He had nothing to say yesterday, he had nothing to say today, and he will have nothing to say tomorrow this was the word from his headquarters. Mr. Hughes believes his speeches on "false prosperity," produced a tremendous effect upon the voters during his last campaign tour. . . , . The Republican nominee will receive the election returns with the immediate members of his family at the Astor hotel. A special wire has been installed to give him the prompt news of the voting. If elected, Mr. Hughes plans to spend the time resting before inauguration, probably somewhere in the south. If defeated although he has considered no such possibility, he probably will go back to the practice of law in New York City.

Each organization will have a fleet of automobiles on hand tomorrow to assist in getting out the vote. In the meantime the bets being posted at various places in this city are, for1 the most part, favorable,, to Republican victories for the national, state and congressional tickets. There appears to be considerable Democratic betting money on hand, however., Democratic headquarters concedes a Republican victory in Wayne county with the possible exception of one county office contest Democrats are claiming, however, a great reduction in the Republican vote. -v v Saturday the claim was made that Hughes would carry the county by 1,000 majority. Today the Democrats revised this estimate and predicted a majority of not to exceed 700 for the Republican presidential nominee. . The Republican headquarters today claims a Hughes victory in Wayne county by a majority of at least 1,800, possibly 2,000. It is also claimed that the gubernatorial and congressional candidates will receive majorities just as large. Every county candidate will be elected, G. O. P. leaders say, by majorities ranging between 1,800 and 2,500. Wage Bitter Struggle v The political fight in Wayne county this year has been one of the hardest in the county's history. - Democratic state headquarters has been remarkably generous in the appropriation of funds for conducting the Wayne county campaign with the end in view of cutting down the anticipated Republican majorities for the national, state and congressional tickets to a figure which would give the Democrats a chance of carrying the Sixth district, allotted more funds to Wayne county

(No interest- no extras of any kind No purchase of records necessary) That's our proposition in a nut shell a plain business proposition- no strings to it. It is the combined effort on the part of the manufacturer and our store to make two buyers where there used to be one. Suppose you have come to the point of putting an instrument in your home. You start out to look at the various makes. In the first store you come to, they will evade , the question altogether when you ask the terms. On the other hand, they will question you, with a view of finding just how much you can pay . In other words' they will try to get the highest terms you will agree to pay. At the next store you visit, when you have found an instrument of grade and quality to compare favorably with the Columbia, you will be asked to pay from ten to twenty dollars cash and ten or twelve dollars a month -with interest added. r " . Now come to our store and see the Columbia. There's no uncertainty about the price here. There's no hesitancy about the terms. The proposition has been carefully thought out and the terms on 100 instruments made as low as the most economical selling method will permit. - '
