LOCAL ELECTION NOTES

Great political expectations evi-dently

¬

came to grief last night as thereturns came In So much was said-so much predicted that Bryan wouldcome under the wire a leader in yes-terdays

¬

vote that it drew a largecrowd at the Ocala House to receivethe returns H C ° Groves read thedispatches as they were received andthere was so little In them to arouseenthusiasm among the Democrats andevery prospect pleasing to the G OPs that at ten oclock there was asolemn assembly relieved here andthere by a bright smile of a Repub ¬

lican or the witty remark of H LAnderson who soon had the field allto himself Some Democrats became-so depressed that they were unkindenough to remark that they believed-Mr Groves as he read the dispatchesdoctored them to suit Tafts election

e was only a little gangrene theresult of buoyant hopes lashed to de ¬

spair by the unfavorable returnsShortly after 11 oclock the crowd dis-persed

¬

satisfied it was Bill Taft Thelocal vote we deem quite complimen-tary

¬

and satisfactorily democraticThere was said to be 1000 qualifitdvoters in the Ocala precinct and 627votes were recorded The ticket wasa long one and so many were not fa-miliar

¬

with names that It took a longE time to fill out the tickets a number

consuming fifeen minutes and thenmarking names on the wrong sideThere were ten voters who deemed itthe wiser plan to leave theIr ballotsunmarked and let them be counted for

ti what they were worth Mr W SDurst said this morning there wes ahandsome reward for the names ofthese ten voters

a The desire was so great to vote inthe afternoon the crowd at the doorbecame congested and so much timewas consumed In waiting that quite anumber of voters left in disgust We-

s presume the question which Bill willbe elected was asked ten thousandtimes yesterday

There was some previousness aboutclosing the polls the contention being

i T5 that the time to close was at sundownand that sundown was 455 oclockThe result was quite a number of per ¬

sons working In the mills and foundryi were barred from voting The Inspec-

tors¬

and clerks of election did theirSl duty well and with some forethought

Mn preparation things were so wellmanaged that by 10 oclock they hadcompleted their count and made their

Jannouncements J-

TbprQ was great Interest displayed-In the vote for legislators as it wasthe Impression that the liquor men

c and their friends had it in for W DCam the uncompromising disciple ofprohibition There were those who be ¬

4

3 lieved he would be beat but the re ¬

turns received last night showed MrCams vote to be two to his opponents-one But It Is all over now so far asMarlon county Is concerned until twoyears from now
