"William Howard Taft has been elect
ed President of the United States , and
James S. Sherman Vice President , ac
cording lo the early returns , by a vote
or Jill to 172 iu the electoral college ,
thus giving a majority over Bryan
and Kern of 39. Tuft has sixty-nine
more than the number required to elect.
but falls short of Roosevelt's total of
83-i four years ago. Taft has a plural
ity of the popular vote in the entire
country of about 1,000,000 , against
Roosevelt's 2.515.000 in 11)04. The next
House of Representatives is Republi
can. and the Republican party will re
main in control of all branches of the
government after March 4 next.
Of the States called doubtful or de
batable in the campaign , Taft carried
nearly all. His majority in New York
Ull 11AM IIOUAKU 1AI1.
State may reach 188,000 , he carried
Ohio by about 75,000 , and Illinois by
175.000. Indiana was extremely close ,
the majority for the head of the ticket
ranging from 5,000 to 15,000 , according
to the returns at 3 o'clock Wednesday
morning. The returns Indicate that
the far western mountain States of
Colorado and Montana have given
Bryan their electoral Aotos , but Taft
has i-urried Idaho.
Bryan made a much bettor race for
the presidency than he did in either
of his other campaign , gaining both in
electoral and popular votes , but has
made no serious inroads upon the Re
publican hold on the presidential office
Ho has done bettor in the West than in
the East. In the West ho has won his
own State and other States which were
for Roosevelt , but in the East he has
made no headway , and the majorities
against him there are almost as large
as they were in 1000. Where he did
gain Avas in States where there were
factional fights temperance
Re-publican or a
perance struggle over the State ticket
Involving the electoral ticket as well.
Carrie * > ew York.
Some of the State fights Avere In
doubt on the face of the early returns.
Hughes carried New York by a major
ity less than half as great as that of
the presidential candidate.
The returns from Ohio and Indiana
came In with provoking sloAvness , but
the early figures Indicated that Taft
had carried Ohio by anything from 10-
000 npAvnrd. Whether or not Governor
Harris or Judson Harmon had carried
Ohio for Governor could not be deter
mined till the full returns were in.
Early Indications Avere that the Demo
crats Avon the governorship , as the
cities Avore against Harris on the tem
perance Issue.
Indiana returns were also indefinite.
but it was believed Taft had carried
the State by a small plurality , the esti
mates ranging from 5,000 to 15,000.
The Republican losses are somewhat
heavy in the cities , due In part to the
labor A'ote , and the early returns from
the country districts Avere meager.
There appeared to be no doubt that
Marshall , Democrat , had been elected
Governor of Indiana , and the indica
tions Avere that the Democrats had won
control of the Legislature.

majority estimated at about 100.000. at
midnight Tuesday the election for Gov
ernor was In doubt , with Hemans
( Iom. ) loading Governor Warner
( Kop. ) by 7.000 to 10,000. Many coun
try districts in which Warner expected
a heavy vote had not reported. There
\\ore no indications of pronounced
Democratic wins in the Legislature.
Wisconsin has given Taft its normal
Republican majority of 100.000. This
is a fall in- off from the l.TO.OOO of 1004.
but is the usual Republican plurality.
Governor .T. O. Davidson , Republican ,
has been re-elected , but his vote is be
hind that of the head of the ticket ,
owing chiefly to the fact that he was
not indorsed by Senator La Follette.
Eight Republican Congressmen have
been elected , two are in doubt , and one
Democrat is elected. The Legislature
is Republican.
In Minnesota , -where there was a bit
ter fight for Governor , Johnson appear
ed to have Avon by a small majority ,
although Bryan was beaten in the
State by considerably over 00,000 votes
This fact is thought to put Johnson in
the forefront of the Democratic candi
dates for the nomination four years
fiom now.
Missouri went for Brynn , and Had-
ley the Republican candidate for Gov
ernor , according to the first re
ports , did not overcome the normal
Democratic majority. The indications
wore that Senator Stone had succeeded
in the primary election , thus defeat
ing the ambition of Governor Folk to
become United States Senator.
Cum jiiiii.s AVin 4 in Iowa.
Iowa has gone for Taft , but by a m-i-
jority much reduced from that given
to Roosevelt four years ago. The early
returns indicated that Governor Cum
mins had received a majority of the
Republican vote , and will therefore bo
indicated as the choice of the Legisla
ture United States Senator to succeed
the late William B. Allison.
In Illinois incomplete returns indi
cated that Tuft's plurality in the State
will be more than 185,000 , and that
Governor Deneen has returned to the
Statehouse for a second term by a mar
gin of between 35,000 and 45.000. In
Chicago a terrific slashing of the ticket
on the part of the "Irreconcilable" ele
ment In the Republican party , which
lined up with the Stevenson managers
on a vote-trading proposition , made
Deneen run behind the head of his
ticket. Stevenson captured the city by
a margin of G,721 votes. The majority
against Deneen In Cook County , how
ever , Avas made tip iu the country dis
tricts in the State.
New York City affords one of the
greatest surprises of the election. In
stead of giving Bryan the 100.000 sc
' onfidently claimed by Democratic man
agers , Taft actually carried the me
tropolis. This is the second time a Re
publican candidate for President has
carried Now York City , McKinley hav
ing n plurality of 01,000 in 1S9G. Four
years later Bryan carried the city by
2S.OOO , and in 1904 Parker carried it by
oS,000. Two years ago Chaiiler carried
It for Lieutenant Governor by 139,000 ,
and this year the Democratic leaders
felt sure of from iWKm to 110,000 for

The Republicans have a majority in

elected in his Illinois district , and he

CONFESSION LEADS TO AEREST.
Many ol Those Connected with the
Dastardly Murder o Capt. San-
kin Are JKTov , ' in Custody.
The prompt measures taken by Gov
ernor Patterson in dealing \vitn the
shockim : outr.-igo of the Tennessee
Night Riders , when Capt. Quentin II.
Rankin uas lynched and his friend and
con-pauion. .nulw Xaclutry Taylor , nar
rowly escaped a similar fate , are bear
ing fruit. Numerous arrests of mem
bers of the Nfclit Riders have IHKMI
made by the militia , which the Gover
nor sent into the northwestern part of
the State , and one of the law-breaking
gang. Ted Burton , has made a confes
sion implicating over two score of the
criminals. The majority of those are
now under arrest at Camp Nemo , at
Samberg , and all of thorn eventually
will bo forced to face the responsibility
for their shockingly cold-blooded and
cruel crime.
According ro the story told by Bur
ton , the ringleaders of the Night Rid ;
crs. who hanged Capt. Rankin near
Wulmii Lodge on the shores of Reel-
foot Lake , were Tom and Garret John
son and Will Watson , the two former
of whom are under arrest and the lat
ter of uhom is now at largo under a
i5.000 bond for another crime. Burton
assoits that ho was not actually pres
ent at the lynching , but that he helped
to arrange the preliminaries. Ho is-
plicatos .Tamos F. Carpenter , a lawyer ,
whom ho chartros with having decoyed
Rankin and Taylor to Walnut Lodge
under the pretense of buj ing some land
bordering on Reelfoot Lake , dispute
over the fishing privileges of which
led to the tragedy. Carpenter is now
under arrest.
Burton mot Carpenter at Walnut
Lodge by arrangement , and says he
saw Rankin and Taylor at the supper
table the niirht they were taken from
their beds in the hotel and convoyed ,
bound on horseback , to Bayou Deshea ,
to be murdered. After making sure
that Rankin and Taylor were at Wal
nut Lodge ho convoyed Iho information
to the leaders of the Night Riders , and
\\hile leaving the latter to deal with
the victims ho wont out on the lake
to fish. Ho was fishing fully a mile
from shore when Rankin was killed
and hoard the reports of the shots that
were fired into his body.
The confession of Burton and the
arrest of many of the Night Riders
implicated in the tragedy have placed
the authorities in a strong position in
dealing Avith the lawlessness of the
Night Riders. Five companies of State
militia are now in the affected district
and more will be dispatched to the
scene should the situation warrant it
It is the purpose of Governor Patterson
to stamp out the lawlessness which has
existed in the vicinity of Reelfoot Lake
for a long time.
Lawlessness.
The fishing privileges connected with
this lake lie at the root of the whole |
trouble. It has been the contention of '
those living near the lake squatters
and others that it Avas their right to j
ply their calling as fishermen in its
waters Avithout molestation , while the
owner of the lan'd on the shores of the
lake took an opposite view. t
Originally there Avere many owners
of the lands bordering on the lake , bui
the Western Tennessee Land Company , B
of Avhich Capt. Rankin and .Indue Tayt
lor Avere the organizers , purchased the t
rights of many of those , and in the '
courts the company AVUS uphold , together - '
gothorvlth the embariro It had placed e
on the fishing privileges on the lake , ?
Then followed Niirht Rider AA-arninsrs , j
threatening death to those who opposed
*
the wishes of the members of the band.
It AA-US on the first visit in many months
rte
to the lake region that Capt. Rankin d
was killed. t
'
Now the Niirht Riders are to be
fought to a finish and the Avhole disreputable - J
reputable organization exterminated t
The \var against the Niirht Rider * Is B
to be extended to ether States v.'hore
this species of lawlessness exists. The
Governors of several States Governors
Noel of Mississippi. Pindall of Arkan- '
sas. and WilNon of Kentucky have e
approved a suggestion of Governor Patterson - °

tives of those States be held and plans I

in an effort to destroy Niirht Rider orc

the effusion of blood inmother revo
