Republicans Win Ground in Davison County Campaign
In Davison County the Republican ticket overcame strong odds amid populist and fusion pressures. J. E. Wells led the county committee with a broad team, and J. H. Scriven aided on the state level. Fullerton and Bras consolidated gains, reducing populist pl u r a l it ie s from 80 and 59 to 41 and 45 respectively. Sheriff Cook rose from 40 to 105, and two Republicans were elected to the board of county commissioners. The party contends it has a solid, renewed footing and aims to regain power in two years. The Public Library notes a book recataloging by the W. C. T. U. ladies. hours and a small fee apply.
