    1. [KSSEWARD] Enrollment Near The 80 Mark: November 4, 1920
    2. Jim Laird
    3. The Liberal Daily Democrat Seward County Thursday November 4, 1920 Enrollment Near The 80 Mark. The enrollment in the 1B of Lincoln school is close to 80. Miss Eldridge has been hired as an extra teacher for part of this grade. Miss LAKE who has had charge of these 80 little people for the past 8 weeks is one of the best Primary teachers Liberal has ever had and we appreciate the effort she has put forth in keeping them up to the standard through the hardest part of their work regardless of the half day sessions. They are now able to go to school all day.

    1. [KSSEWARD] County Ticket Went Largely Republican: November 3, 1920; Several Surnames
    2. Jim Laird
    3. The Liberal Daily Democrat Seward County Wednesday November 3, 1920 County Ticket Went Largely Republican. Seward county went Republican in yesterday's land side, all the contested offices in the court house going to the Republican with the exception of county attorney. The Democrats elected two commissioners, Chas. NEFF and Butler WOOD. Miss Emma THOMPSON, county superintendent had no opposition. The surprise of the contest was the race made by E.W. DAVIS for the office of county attorney. Davis was badly beaten two years ago, but yesterday the majority was very nearly reversed. Davis received a majority in every ward in Liberal city, Kismet, Antelople Valley, Blue Bell. The vote from Seward Township and Fargo township are not in. The Republicans elected the following officers: Abe K. STOUFER, county clerk. W.H. FEATHER, Treasurer. Dr. W.O. NELSON, Sheriff. J.W. CAMPBELL, probate judge. H.F. BOLTON, register of deeds. S.A. MILLER, coroner. F.O. RINDOM, district clerk. Minnie J. GRINSTED, representative. (Note: Don't know for sure, but think perhaps the Sheriff and Coroner may need to be reversed.)
