Mississippi went Democratic. , But Pennsylvania went wrong. .'Anybody hear from Alaska ? 'Pay your election bets and look pleasant. wwwx . Old Kentucky is again in the Demo cratic fold. mrWMJrw Wo don't have to bo shown that Mis souri went Democratic. tyhat's the matter with Box Butte county ? She's nil right 1 Maryland remained firm in the Democratic faith with a safe majority. District Judges VV. H. Wcstovcrniid J. J. Harrington aro re-elected by over 400 majority. Sheriff Meed's majority is only 457. Evidently the voters did not hclicyo that "Ira Reed is no sheriff at all 1 " The election returns in this county do not indicate thut Tub Herald has lost anything by not abusing the candi dates on the republican ticket. Ohio came up smiling with a great Republican majority and Tom Johnson, Democratic ca4jdate, lies buried be ncutluin avalanch of Hanna votes, The race between Brcnan and Muir head proved to be the closest in the local contest. In fact its hard to con cede s victory where the majority but 1. is Fusionists elect county clerk, judge, sheriff, commissioner and surveyor. Republicans elect treasurer, superin tendent of schools and coroner, the first by only one majority. Iowa gave Cummins, candidate for governor, about 60,000 majority, a con siderable falling off from two years ago. The Democrats gained several members in the lower house. Tom Piatt is off on his honeymoon aud Tcddv was unable to hold' the wicked city in line alone. If Tom had appointed Dowio as his understudy during his absence there might have been some hope. I he campaign carried on under the leadership of County Chairmen Mit chell and Reed was void of any dis agreeable features It is only to the credit of these men to state that thev conducted a campaign free from per sonalities. Returns from about four-fifths of the election precincts in Nebraska, outside of Douglas county, make no material change in the estimate of Wednesday morning, which indicated the election of Judge Barnes by about 8,000 plurality over Judge Sullivan. After a remarkable campaign in which there was united against him nearly all the uewspapcrs and prac tically every minister of religion in that city, George B. McClellan was elected third mayor of Greater New York over Seth Low, f usionist, the present mayor, by a plurality of about 70,000. A degenerate of this citv. who hns not the moral courage to defend him self, is trying to create sympathy (which he needs badly) by telling that lie was attacked on election day by a man with a gun. Notwithstanding that no gun was drawn, the person whom he claims had his hand on one, had been informed by several persons that the degenerate had carried one for him for several weeks. However, if one had been drawn, it would not have been the first six-shooter or shot gun that the degenerate has dodged since his residence in Alliance, viz. for wrecking homes.

Columbus, O., Oct. 30, M. S. Con nors, general superintendent of the Hock ing Valley and allied lines, today an nounced that the American Railway asso ciation had decided to aban don the opera tion of trains by telegraphic orders on all double-track roads In the country. The change is effective January 1. 1904. At the meeting there was represented over 70 per cent of he entire mileage of all the roads in the United States, the delegates being composed of the higher operating officials. The report of the rules committee was adopted in full as submitted. It contem plates the substitution of the block system wherever possible. A' high official of the Pennsylvania road annou need that on Jan uary 1 the Fort Wayne road between Pitts burg and Chicago would make the change, and similar announcements are expected from other lines. The purpose of the change is to remove the danger of misin terpreted and lost orders. The trainmen have only the block signals to watch in the handling of their trains. It is hoped great ly to reduce the danger of travel and lessen, the number of accidents. s SKIRT I $(8.50 2.05 5.00 8.95 S12.50 Tor mm w 1 BROS. - r ri I i Vw ft t x.
