The election of 'Mrs. Hattie V. Caraway as United States senator an honor never . before accorded a woman was assured in early returns tonight from today's special election in Ar kansas. . Returns from 47 counties, eight complete and several others almost complete, gave Mrs. Caraway 12,738 votes against 391 for Sam D. Carson and 536 for Rex R. Floyd. Her two opponents were listed as independ ents on the ticket. : The republicans did not offer a candidate. The election had been generally regarded as a mere formality, as the democratic nomination is tantamount to election in Arkansas, but because of its history-making aspect women's clubs and party leaders sought to get out a large vote. With most county treasuries in straitened circumstances, women vol unteers serving without pay acted as election officials in many places. In her home city of Jonesboro. only two votes were cast against Mrs. Caraway, and in many precincts over the state her opponents polled no votes. Mrs. Caraway, who took a seat in the senate at the opening of the pres ent session under a temporary ap pointment from Governor Harvey Parnell. will serve out the unexpired term of her late husband. Senator Thaddeus H. Caraway, who died two months ago. The term erpires in March, 1933. World-Herald. In a few months work will be under way on Missouri river de velopment in this vicinity.

C& St. Passing of Former Resident of Cass County Mrs. Alma Bnssell Gilmour of Caster County Called to Last Seward Well Known Here. The following from the Loup Val ley Queen, of Callaway, Nebraska, tells of the death of Mrs. Joseph Gil mour, former resident of Cass coun ty: Alma Russell, third daughter of Elizur H. and Henrietta (Amick) Russell was born near Weeping Wa ter, Nebraska, December 5th, 1862 and departed this life January 2, 1932 at the age of 69 years and 27 day 8. Her parents homesteaded in an early day on the present site of Elm- wood, Nebraska. After her mother's death in 1868, she made her home with her maternal 'grandparents for several years. Her father remarried in 1869. She received her education in the Cass county public schools. Under the pastorate of Rev. Wehn of Weep ing Water, she was converted and joined the Methodist church there. For years her membership has been in the Redfern Evangelical church. On February 14, 1883 she was united in marriage to Mr. Joseph Gilmore of Weeping Water. To this union were born nine children: Hen rietta, Russell, Reuben, Myrtle, Mary, Willis, Wilmer , Elma and Rachel. In 1890 she with her husband and infant daughter Myrtle came to Cus ter county locating on Redfern Table. They lived on their home stead until 1906 when they moved to their new home on an adjoining tree claim. Mr. and Mrs. Gilmore possessed the true pioneer spirit and they were always glad to respond to any call for service in their commun ity. There was hardly a home in the Redfern locality to which Mrs. Gil more has not ministered in time of illness and sorrow. Her many acts of helpfulness and kindness could not be numbered. The pastors of the surrounding community always found a hearty welcome in the Gilmore home and her liberality to them and to her neighbors was very commend able. She has also in her relation as mother rendered her full measure ot loving service to her children. Just as her mother faced the hardships incident to pioneer life in Cass coun ty, such experiences as Bess Streeter Aldrich's famous character Abbie Deal endured, so did Mrs. Gilmore in the early period of the Redfern com munity face them "with a song upon her lips and the lantern of love in her hand." Her husband passed away Novem ber 11, 1931. The strain of his long illness N seirelyi taxed "her health. She had enjoyed the holiday period with her children and, granchildren and her health was apparently im proving when she was suddenly call ed Home. Besides her husband she was preceded in death by her father, mother, two sisters and six children. One (laughter, Mrs. Rachel Booker, who died in 1920, left an infant daughter to whom Mrs. Gilmore has given a mother's care. She is survived by three children, Mrs. Myrtle Massie, Mary and Willis' nil of Callaway, a half brother, John W. Russell of Callaway, ten grand chidren, other relatives and many friends. Funeral services were held Tues day, January 5th, at 2 p. m. at the Methodist church in Callaway pre ceded by prayer at the home by Rev. Garrison. Rev. Hutchins read Psalms 90. Rev. Thomas offered prayer. Rev. Garrison pastor of the deceased paid a tribute to her life service after which Presiding Elder E. F. Haist delivered a message of comfort from 1 Samuel 20:3. Music was furnished by Mrs. Frank Brakel and a quartette composed of Mrs. R. D. Wieland, Miss Lorraine Lewis, Mr. E. E. Lewis and Supt. W. A. v Rosene. Miss Lewis sang "Crossing the Bar." Pallbearers were Messrs. George Thurman, George Robertson, Ray Walker, Emery Stockham, Edgar Whitehead and Roy Matz. Interment was made in Rose Hill cemetery. Relatives from a distance who at tended the funeral were Mr. Wilson Gilmore of Weeping Water, Mrs. Al bert Shelhorn and son Howard, of Louisville, Mr. Lewis Hollenbeck of Elmwood, Mrs. Alma Crabtree, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Embry, Mrs. Celia Bates and daughter Dolores all of Maywood. ma nine WINTER is the harvest season for the demon Fire! FIRES are more apt to start from many well known causes.

Davis Insurance, Loans and Investments Cass County Has Champion 4-H Clubs Practical Poultry Producers of Eagle and Weeping Water Dairy Calf Clubs Are Winners. The Practical Poultry Producers of Eagle and the Weeping Water Dairy Calf Clubs were declared the state champion poultry and dairy 4-H clubs. Each club now has permanent possession of the beautiful silver lov ing cup given by the Gooch Milling Company of Lincoln. The cups be came the property of the clubs after having won them two years in suc cessions. The following is a brief outline of the activities of the poultry club: The Practical Poultry Producers won the Gooch Milling trophy last year with a membership of 24, which completed 100. They had 38 en tries at the state fair and also ex hibited at the junior and county fairs. They had the state champion poultry judging team that placed sixth in the National contest with third high individual. Their dem onstration team placed fifth at the state fair. This year the club reorganized with 27 members that completed 100. The club exhibited 175 birds at the Eagle Junior Fair, 135 at the Nebraska state fair, 125 at the coun ty fair and 35 at the Cornhusker ex hibition at Nebraska City. Winnings at the state fair this year were, 13 firsts, 9 seconds, 4 thirds, and 3 fourths. Only one pen was disquali fied. Tht members averaged 188 chicks started and raised 139 of them or 74. The net profit per member was $53.70. Each member average! mak ing two new pieces of equipment. This club again had the state champion poultry judging team which placed second at Chicago with the high individual of the entire con test. The club's demonstration team placed second at the state fair this year, and because the team placing first could not qualify for the Na tional show, the second team which u presented Nebraska at St. Louis was from this club, and they placed fourth in that contest. The club also had their usual tour and picnic, judging contests, and achievement day. They also sponsor ed a "chicken feed" to raise money for the Junior Fair. The presentation of the loving cup to the Dairy club was made Thursday morning, by W. H. Brokay, director cf extension, at the Nebraska Dairy men's Association meeting, at Or ganized Agriculture. The Dairy club erorganized this year with 19 mem bers. This was an increase of two members over last year and 10 over the year before. This club has finish ed 100 for the three years it has been organised. Last year they had the champion dairy demonstration team at the state fair. It was also the champion farm demonstration team. This team represented Nebraska at St. Louis. This year, with new enthusiasm, the club members took more inter est in their calved and in their club work than ever before. Nine of the members exhibited their calves at the county fair and six at the state fair. The winnings of these members at the state fair were, 2 firsts, 2 sec onds, 1 third, 1 fourth and 1 fifth. One of the boys exhibited his cow which stood second and one of her ralves which placed fourth. One of the members won the Jersey show manship medal. One of the boys ex hibited his calf at jhe National Dairy Show. This club also had the champion demonstration team in Class B at the state fair and represented Nebraska at the National contest at St. Louis in that division. One of the members was on the county dairy judging team that placed sixth at the state fair. The club had a tour, picnic, judging contests, and try-outs and an achieve ment day. Cass County 4-H club members should be proud of the fact that Cass county won two of the four cups given by the Gooch Milling company this year. DAWES SUPPORT GIVEN HOOVER Chicago. Jan. 1. Charles Dawes, ambassador to Great Britain, Monday night issued a statement in which he said that any intimation to the effect that President Hoover would not have Dawes full and entire support is "an insult to me." Discarding talk of his possible candidacy for the Republican presi dential nomination, as "the discus sions of politicians seeking, as usual, to read petty political significance out of my return to Chicago," Dawes said he cherished for Presi dent Hoover "the highest admiration and deepest affection."
