'At l.-.-i.st nut! result from the uriinarv kleclioii lias lipnvn.r m Oi-i'ircm's future neniiiiiieiit liislorv. ft is the reuiarkalile vktorv of t'(inrcssiuau Jit McArthur in the fl'ortlaiiu district. With three candidates Hic-iviiur. his neck in Mood thirst v maimer, with secret orders fi'ditiiitf him c'oiistantlv, Willi some of his former supporters estranged and seekim;- new idols, McArthur made the Jifrht mid as 1he darkey down south says, "Come clean." Jlis majority is decisive audio obt.-iu it he sacrificed im principle, nor did lie back track a single step on his record in congress. Plainly this makes McArthur a state character, who in the future will have influence outside of his district. "What his political ambitions may be are unknown to the Evening Observer, but whatever they n.'ay chance to he an announcement or public utterance of McArthur iu the future will receive the most profound -attention through out the state. An for future contests against him for .mgressinaii in his home district, tho- will not be worth mentioning ifor McArthur has gone through the different fires, en (Kiiintered the acid of his opposition, felt the keen knife thrusts of enemies who were after his heart, and he has (merged fi ni all victorious and standing straight up on his feet. Jt matters not whether you may agree with some of Hie congressman's ideas, admiration naturally is attracted lo a man of his type, especially in this day of the spineless weakling who too often iVls the people into electing him to office.

This year Hall took the lead to start with hut Olcott's vote in' the interior country crept up on the Hall vole until it is a los-s u j as to who will finally win. .A close election means a contest, whichever side wins.
