T h e lead ers a r e increasin g th e ir
vote, an d thse in this contest in e a r n ­

estin g to keep check o f the b a ttle of
ballots, and every mail m akes some
c h a n g e in th e relativ e position of
som e candidate. Now it is one con­
te s t a n t t h a t receives a boost to w ard
th e top and then an o th er. But th e

does not tell the whole story. It is a
good th i n g to keep n e a r the head of
th e list, b u t it is a g r e a t e r a d v a n ta g e
to have a reserve back which nobody
know, a n y th in g about, and which can
be h r u g h t in to good play la t e r on.
