The following is taken from the
McFali, Mo., Mirror, and as the parties
weie former residents of this county it
will be of interest to our readers:
‘Last Saturday afternoon occurred
one of the saddest accidents that ever
happened in this vicinity. About 3:80
p. m. Mr. Oakley Manring came to town
for a surgeon, stating that his little boy,
Frankie, had been accidentally shot by
Ita Coleman Qromer, who, with his
mother, was visiting at his home. Dr.
H. J. Patton went out, but soon
returned, saying the child had been
shot through the heart and death had
been instantaneous. The little boy was
laid to rest Sunday afternoon in Fair
view cemetery.
From Mr. J. C. Gromer, father of Ira
Coleiuau Gromer, we learn the follow
ing particulars as he learned them from
his wife and son: At noon, Saturday,
Mrs. Gromer proposed to drive out to
Mr. Manrings, and asked Coleman to
accompany her, to which he at first
objected; but finally agreed if he might
take his target gun, and he and his
younger brother and mother drove out.
After they had been there for a time
and the younger Gromer boy and Mr.
Manring’s two little boys had gone out
on the south side of Sampson creek to
play, Coleman took his gun and went
out west on the north side of the creek
to hunt squirrels, and saw a nest in a
tree. Thinking that a squirrel might
be scared out by shooting into it, he got
down by a stump to take 'rest.' The
stump not being high enough to accom
modate the gun at that angle, he turned
to get a piece of hark with which to
raise it. In doing so the gun was
swung to the right, and the little boys
having seen him, unfortunately came
up just at that time and the gun was
accidentally discharged, and little Frank
dropped dead.
Mr. Gromer says the gun has been
very uncertain about standing cocked,
and that they have not allowed the boy
to go hunting with anybody else, and
that it was not the intention, as he
understands it that the little boys should
be with him that day.
The little boy who was shot was five
years old, but from his size would have
been taken for much older. We have
frequently seen the little boys with Mr.
Manring and remarked their promising
appearance. The family is deeply
stricken with grief, while hardly less
afflicted are Mr. and Mrs. Gromer over
the sad calamity."
HOW THE COOHTXT WEHT.
Louisville, Ky., Nov. 4—The state
seems safe for McKinley, though the
result may be close. Taking an esti
mate of the missing counties madb some
days ago by the democratic committee
the McKinley majority of the missing
vote is 1,283. This would give the state
to McKinley by 4, 744
The democrats elected six out of
eleven congressmen. The result in the
Seventh district between W. C. P.
Breckinridge and E. E. Settle is yet in
doubt. The republican state committee
this afternoon claims the state for Mc
Kinley by 2,000 to 3,060 Chairman
Roberts estimates the state for McKinley
by 6,000 to 8,000, and the legislature
republican on joint ballot.
Detroit, Nov. 4.—Incomplete returns
from eighty-three counties indicate that
McKinley has carried the «tate by 40,
Q00. Pingree, for governor, has an
estimated plurality of 58,000. That
Pingree should have run decidedly
ahead of his ticket generally throughout
the state is regarded as something of a
surprise in view of the combined inter
ests allied against him. In Detroit
Pingree got more votes than be ever
received in his candidacy for mayor.
In 128 precincts in this county Pingree
received 86,923 to 19,154 for Sligh;
McKinley, 35,658; Bryan, 24,417.
The republican state ticket ran con
siderably behind Pingree’s vote and
several thousand behind McKinley's
vote. The republican members of con
gress are elected in each of the twelve
districts of the 6tate, except the Third
and Eighth, and in the Eighth the issue
is still doubtful between Congressman
Linton and Ferdinand Brucker, The
legislature will be overwhelmingly
republican, but by what majority is
not yet determined. McKinley’s plural
ity appears this afternoon to be 40,000.
Chicago, Nov. 4.—In this city Mc
Kinley has a plurality of 57,339. The
Chicago congressional delegation is
solidly republican. The indications are
that republicans were elected in all the
congressional districts in the state ex
cept the Sixteenth, Eighteenth, Nine
teenth and twentieth. Both parties
claim the Nineteenth. The republicans
will have a large majority in both houses
of the legislature, which will elect a
United States senator to succeed Palmer.
The entire republican state ticket is
elected by a majority of 100,000 to 125,
000. Tanner, for governor, will get
about 25,000 less than McKinley.
Albany, N. Y., Nov. 4.—McKinley’s
plurality in this state promises to ex-1
ceed 800,000. New York city has
broken its political record in a presi
dential election and has Risen a repub
lican plurality for president for the first
time since 1838, except in 1848, when
the free-soilers and Van Buren cut down
the democratic vote to less than 80 per
cent. The legislature is republican and
will elect a republican successor to Hill.
San Francisco, Not. 4.—California
has joined the east in the landslide. Its
majority for McKinley will exceed 5,000.
Many counties have not vet reported,
but the populist ones, on which the fate
of the election hinged, have all been
heard from and swell the republican
majority to a point where nothing can
possibly disturb it. The legislature is
safely republican.

TTTTTTr
A QUESTION
And an
HONEST
ANSWER.
A fashionably dressed woman
asked an O’Neill merchant this
question:
“What is style in a garment?”
“Style in a garment,” he said,
“is what all women want, what
some women instantly recognize
when they see it, and what no
woman or man oan describe. Style
that is not absolutely correct is as
bad as no style. Almost right is
no better than altogether wrong.
A stylish garment is usually well
made, of up-to-date materials and
it always fits. But good fff, ex
cellent making and quality of
material do not in themselves
make a stylish garment. The only
way to dscribe style is to show it.”
And that is what I am doing
this fall—showing the largest line
of ladies’, misses’ and children’s
jackets of up-to-date materials
and styles. We hope to have the
pleasure of showing to every lady
who intends purchasing a gar
ment this fall THE CORRECT
STYLES and lowest prices.
There is one question I wish to
submit, and that fact is: That
they are well made, and upon the
making depends the whole ques
tion of style, of fit and of servioe.
Respectfully yours,
P. J. McManus.

*Doubtful.
Electoral votes necessary to a choice—224.
Cmo a no, Nov. S.—McKinley and Ho
bart are elected, but the majority is
likely to be a muoh narrower one than
baa been looked for as the result of the
sarlier dispatches. The following
electoral votes are conceded to MoKln
ley: Connecticut 0, Illinois 24, Iowa 13,
i Maine 6, Maryland 8, Massachusetts
15, Michigan 24, Minnesota 9, New
Hampshire 4, New Jersey 10, New
Fork 36, Ohio 23, Pennsylvania 32,
Rhode Island 4, Vermont 4, Wisconsin
12. Total 220.
The following votes are conceded to
Bryan: Alabama 11, Arkansas 8, Col
orado 4, Florida 4, Georgia 13, Idaho 3,
Louisiana 8, Mississippi 9, Missouri 17,
Montana 3, Nevada 3, South Carolina
J, Tennessee 12, Texas 14, Utah 3, Vir
ginia 12—total 134.
Nothing but the most meger and
scattering returns have been received
from California—9 electoral votes, Kan
sas 10, Wyoming 3 and Washington 4,
so that neither party can as yet claim
these states.
Nebraska with its 8 votes has been
conceded to Bryan. North Carolina
with its eleven votes is claimed by both
sides, but has probably gone for Bryan
and so with South Dakota and its four
votes.
The situation, therefore, may be re
duced to this: Certain for McKinley,
220; almost certa\n for MoKinley, 18;
indications for MoKinley, 25. Certain
for Bryan, 134; probably for Bryan,
24; doubtful, 26. Total, 447.
The fight has not been given up by
the Democrats. As late as 12 o’clock
to-day Senator Jones said: “The indi
cations are that we have carried In
diana. If we have Mr. Bryan is
elected. We have carried Tennessee,
Kentucky and my best advices from
Minnesota are that Towne is elected
and the state is in doubt. I have just
received a telegram from Mr. Bryan in
which he says that he will carry his
state by 10,000.”
From returns thus far received the
next Senate probably will stand as
follows: Republicans; 42; Democrats,
32; Independent and Populist 11,
doubtful 5. Total 90.
On the currency question the Senate
undoubtedly will have an anti-silver
majority. The doubtful states are Del
aware. Kansas. Kentucky, North Caro
llna and South Dakota. The Kepub*
Ucans would need 45 votes with the
Vice President to control the Senate.
The Republican senators who bolted
the St. Louis ticket and platform are
classed as independents. They are
Teller, Dubois, Mantle and Cannon.
Another Utah senator to be elected to
succeed Brown will undoubtedly be in
dependent.

NEW YORK.
Over 300,oeo for McKinley—Republican
for VIrat Time In History.
AbBANT, N. Y., Nov. 0.—With less than
one-fourth of the election districts above
the Harlem river to hear from and with the
vote of New York city and Kings county
complete, the plurality of McKinley over
Bryan promises to exceed 800,000 In the
state. One county In the state, Schoharie
which la the home of Chairman Danforth of
the state Democratic committee, has given
Bryan a plurality of 500.
New York city has broken Its political
record of Presidential elections bv giving
McKinley 16,689 plurality over Bryan. This
is a Republican plurality for President for
the first time In the city's history. From
1899 to 1896, with one exception. Democratic
GARRETT A. HOBART.
Presidential candidates have never polled
less than ST per cent of the total vote of the
city. In 1845 the defection of Van Buren
and the Free Sollers cut down the Demo
cratic vote to less than 36 per cent, but left
a small plurality. Even In the Qreeley cam
paign of 1872 the Democratic candidate
polled nearly SO per cent
The state assembly, out of ISO members,
has 11 Republicans; the Democrats elected
thirty-nine, so that on joint ballot of the
legislature to elect a successor to Senator
Hill the majority will be Republican.
PENNSYLVANIA.
McKinley’s Majority at Least *66,000—
Congressional Status Unchanged.
Philadelphia, Nov. 8.— Estimates from
every county In the state give McKinley an
apparent plurality of 266,950. There la
every rtason to believe that the official re
turns will show a plurality for McKinley of
nearly 280,000. The legislature Is almost
entirely Republican, the Democratic repre
sentatl ixa not Exceeding 10 per cent In a
membership in the lower house of 204.
Philadelphia complete gives McKinley
178,884, Bryan 68,383. Republican plurality,
115,650. Alexander Crow, Jr., Is electeA
sheriff by 18,821.
In the Third Congressional district ex
Oongressman William McAleer, gold Demo
crat, is elected to succeed Frederick Waiter
man, Republican. The four other Congress
ional districts In this city were carried by
the Republicans.
Including the two Congressmen-at-large,
Pennsylvania elected thirty Congressmen.
According to the latest returns, the delega
tion will be divided politically as follows:
Republicans 28, Democrats 2—the same as
In the last Congress.
INDIANA.
McKinley Almost Certain to Carry the
State by 30,000.
iHDiAHAPOUg, Ind., Nov. 5.—Four hundred
out of the S,ll5 precincts In Indiana outside
of Marlon county (Indianapolis) show a net
Republican gain of 4.179, a little over ten to
a precinct. This ratio of Republican gain
has been kept steadily up and If It continues
will give the state to McKinley by over
30.000.
With such a heavy Republican vote over
the statf the Republicans have probably all
the congressional candidates, though there
Is doubt about Sulzer In the Fourth district
Tracewell In the Third and Landis in the
Ninth. There is little doubt that Johnson Is
re-elected In the Sixth.
the Republicans will have a majority In
the legislature which the Republican man
agers place at 42 on Joint ballot Marlon
county will probably give a Republican ma
jority of 7,000, which Is a big Increase over
the last vote. _
MICHIGAN
MoKlnley’s Majority at Least 40,000—
Ptngree Iaadlif the Ticket.
Detroit, Nov. 6.— Returns from the eighty*
three counties of Michigan indicate that Mo
Klnley's plurality in Michigan will he 40,
000. The same returns give Plngree, for
Governor, an estimated plurality of 64,000.
That Pingree should have run decidedly
ahead of his ticket generally throughout the
state is regarded as something of a surprise
in view of the combined interests allied
against him. In Detroit he got more votes
than he had received in his candidacy for
Mayor. In 188 precincts of this county Pla
gree received 37,923 to 19,164 for Sllgh, Mc
Kinley. 33.658; Bryan, 24,417. The Repub
lican state ticket ran considerable behind
Plngree's vote, and several thousand behind
the McKinley vote.
Republican members of Congress were
elected In each of the twelve districts of the
state except the Third and Eighth, and In
the Eighth the issue Is still doubtful between
Congressman Unton and Ferdinand Bucker.
KENTUCKY.
McKinley Has n Plurality on Conceded
Estimates of Delayed Counties.
Louisville, Ky., Nov. 6.—At 8 o'clock this
jpornlog Kentucky seemed sate for McKln
ley. Counties not Heard from tnen were:
Leslie, Floyd, Johnson, Knott, Maguffln,
Pike, Bntler, Oreenup, Harrison, Jackson,
Owen.and part of Henry. These Include
strong Republican as well as strong sliver
counties, but the heavy Republican gains
everywhere teem to make the state safe for
McKinley, though the result may be close.
Taking the estimate of the missing counties
made several days ago by Chairman Sum*
men of the Democratic committee, the Mc
Kinley majority of the missing vote le 1,238.
This would give the state to McKinley by
4,744. This Is the Democratic estimates of
the missing counties. The Democrats
elected aix out of eleven congressmen.
ILLINOIS.
The Republicans Swept Illinois by Over
One Handled Thousand.
Cbicaoo, Nov. B.—Returns from the state
Indicate that McKinley has won by 126,000
and Tanner by 25,000 less, and the Repub
licans will have a large majority In both
houses of the legislature which will elect a
United States senator this winter to succeed
JohnM. Palmer.
The Indications point to the return of Re
publican congressmen In all districts In the
state except the Sixteenth, Eighteenth.
Twentieth and Nineteenth. The last named
district Is still doubtful, both parties claim
ing It The Chicago congressional delega
tion will be solidly Republican.
In this city out of a total of 843,708 vote*
William McKinley received 201,434 and W.
J. Bryan 142,274, giving McKinley a plural*
ity of 67,389 votes.
MINNESOTA.
Forty Thousand for McKinley and the
Entire State Tteket. 3
St. Paul, Nov. 5 —Five hundred and fifteen —
of the 2,100 precincts In Minnesota had been
heard from at noon to-day, giving McKinley
70,184 to 43,824 for Bryan. There seems no
reason to change last night’s figures of 40,
ooo majority for McKinley ana the entire
Republican state ticket will also be elected,
Governor Clough by a reduced vote, but
by not less than 10,000. -Of the congressional __
districts five are placed In the Republican
column, while the Sixth and Seventh are
considered doubtful. Both parties claim the
Sixth and the Seventh. Congressman Eddy
has been running everywhere so far ahead
of hts ticket that It aeems as If he may be
elected even In that Populist stronghold.
GREAT GAINS IN OHIO.
McKinley Carried Bb Ova State by a
Decided Majority.
Columbus. Ohio, Not. 6.—On the compart*
ton of the rote with that of the last Presl
lentlal election, Ohio made nnprecedented
gains for McKinley. In 189a Harrison car
led Ohio by an average plurality for the
itepubllcan electors of 1,073. In that year
une of the Cleveland and Stevenson electors
#as elected. In 1898 McKinley nad a plural*
fty of over 80,000 for Governor. The Repub
licans carried Ohio In 1894 by 187,000 and
last year Bushnell, Republican, was elected
Governor by over 93,000.
MARYLAND.
Che State Carried by at latest 80,000
by the BepubUeaaa.
Baltimohb, Md., Nov. b.—The indications
are that McKinley leads Bryan by 80,000,
10,000 of which has been contributed by
Baltimore. Five Republican congressmen
have surely been elected, the only doubtful
district being the First, In which Joshua W.
Miles, Democrat, may be re-elected. In the
city an almost unanimous Republican Coun
cil has been elected.
100,000 In Wisconsin.
Chicago, Nov. 8.-0. W. Peck of Milwaukee
Wls., wired the Associated’ press as follows
this morning: “McKinley has carried Wis
consin by a comfortable majority. Schofield
tor governor will no doubt pull through very
close to McKinley. Both of them ana every
ether Republican I have heard from will
have a majority enough to be considered
| tafe, say 100,000 or along there somewhere.
They have seemed to draw largely from the
•o-calld silent vote.whlch Is not particularly
illent at this hour. In other respects we are
lulte well, thank you. When you are going
to have any more elections you should send
as an Invitation._
184,000 In Massachusetts.
Boa to if, Nov. 6.—McKinley's majority In
Massachusetts Is 134.000. The Republican
candidates for President and governor car
ried every city and town for the first time In
the history of the state. The Congressional
delegation Is unchanged—twelve Republlc
tns and one Democrat, the latter the only
mein New England. The gold vote was
about three per cent There was little dif
ference between Bryan and Williams. The
rote on the biennial amendments Is Teri
close. The legislature Is more strongly Be?
publican than ever.
88,000 for McKinley In New Jersey.
Tbbbtok, N. J., Nov. 8.—Revised returns
rive McKinley a plurality of 68,000 In New
fersey. The Republicans have elected seven
Congressmen sure and the result In the Sev
enth district, between Young, Lam and Mc
Bwan. Republicans, is In doubt The state
legislature will probably stand: Assembly
Republicans, 44 or 48; Democrats, 16 or 16;
lenate—Republicans, 18; Democrats, 8.
Three and perhaps four of the twenty-one
counties have gone Democratic. The Pal
mer and Buckner vote Is lighter than was ex
pected. _
California 0,000 Republican,
Sam Francisco, Nov. 8.—California baa
lolned the East In the McKinley landslide,
uid lta majority for the Republican stand*
u-d hearer will reach 8,000 at least Oreat
nterest Is centered on the congressional
ticket Outside of this city only one Demo
:ratlc representative seems to have been
:hosen. The legislature has gone with the
general result and may safely he classed as
Republican, tfcus insuring the return of a
Republican to the United States Senate.
New Hampshire Twenty Thousand,
Concord, N. H., Nov. 8. — New Hamp
ihlre returns came In very slowly, but each
precinct reported showed a gain for Me*
Klnley, and McKinley's plurality totalled
20,000. The Palmer and Buckner ballot was
rery light, and out of a total poll of 90,000
Is not expected to exceed 6,000. Ramsdell,
for governor ran behind the McKinley elec
tors, but he will have the largest plurality
sver given a Republican governor In New
Hampshire. The legislature will be over
whelmingly Republican.
Delaware.
Wilmington, DeL, Nov. 5.—Returns from
Delaware are still Incomplete in detail, hut
•nough Is known to accurately state the re
mit McKinley carries the state by 1,800 to
2,000 majority. He may lose one elector,
lames O. Shaw, Sr., whose name was printed
without the affix of “Sr." on the regular
Republican ticket but It Is conceded that
the courts will correct this Irregularity if the
Issue is raised
