The Republican state central committee met at the Denison house, with members from districts 1, 10, and 13 absent, to wrap up campaign business.

The party reported a stronger financial position, with about $300 debt on Jones Tabernacle A.M. & Zion church and plans for a December 26 grand union mask at Masonic hall. An indoor basket meeting is slated for Sunday morning with prayer, scripture readings, and supper served by the awardees.
