"McLoughlin concedes the city by a small majority to Travis,
fifteen election districts estimated. This clinches the Reform
League victory in the state."
I turned to Travis. He was paying no attention except to the pretty
apology of Margaret Ashton.
Kennedy drew me to the door. "We might as well concede Miss Ashton
to Travis," he said, adding gaily, "by induction of an arm about
the waist. Let's go out and watch the crowd."
