4 OHIO COUNTY,. No ~,
The unusual delay in completing the
count in tho districts OF Ohio county kept
up the interest in the local result, though
it was apparent early in the day that the
entire Democratic county ticket was elect
ed by varying majorities, and that the
Democratic candidates for County Com.
missioners had been elected in seven out Of
the ten districts. The three exceptions were
Madison and Clay, in the city, and Lib
ertv, in the country. In Ciay district that
able politician, Mr.. Robert Simpson, was
defeated by q close majority. A prom
inent Democrat remarked yesterday that
III Robert had behaved himself he would
have been elected" AS it Is
the Democrats will control the organiza.
ton OF the Board, but the Republicans
will have three very able Representatives
in, Capt. Tom Prince, Mr.. w. +. Peterson
and Mr.. Daniel Maxwell. All four mem
bers OF the lower house Of the Legislature
are Democratic. gr,' Z, (.
Wilson's majority in the county will b.
about 800. The railroad subscription and
constitutional amendment both received
majorities. Handlan's majority for Sheriff
is the largest on the list.
LOOSE MANAGEMENT. 49,
There probably never was an election
conducted in strict accordance with Law
in Ohio county. There certainly has MOI
been one for several years. That Of Tues
day was an improvement, but in, seyera,
precincts there were violations OF the
plain terms Of the law. In centre distric
both poll books and certificates wert
sealed up in the ballot box and left with
the Clerk Of tho Board OF Commissioners
One OF these is required by law to be left
with the Clerk Of the Circuit Court. mls7
In Webster district the vote for the two
candidates for State Senator as certified
by the officials Of the election exceeds by
Is the entire number OF names on the poll
books. How this could have been brought
about is beyond conjecture.
In Union district the entire vote could
doubtless he thrown out If contested,
Several Of the defeated candidates have
been advised to contest it. The law was
ignored in several important respects, the
most fragrant violation being the commits.
sion OF the ballot box to the keeping OF
John W. Boring, Democratic candidate
for County Commissioner, after the count
was finished sst night The law expli.
city provides that the box shall
not leave the custody Of the
Commissioners at any time except when
by them committed to the care OF one OF
them, and then it shall be securely sealed
with their names written on the paper
where it Is sealed. It is also said on good
authority that Mr. Boring had access to
the ballot box at other times, once, at
least, in the absence OF the Republican
canvasser and before the count was fin.
ished, ana that the count was generally
informal and not in accordance with law.

Wesley Rees, aged twenty six years,
son of John Rees, prominent and
wealthy farmer of Muncie, Indiana,
committed siicide yesterday by shoot
ing aud hanging, in novel manner.
Climbing a tree in the orchard, he
placed a moose, made of hitching rope,
around his neck, and tying the other
end around limb, he sat straddle the
limb and shot himself in the temple.
The fall from his position broke the
strap and he fell to the ground, where
he was found. The cause OF the suicide
was reading sensational and trash nov
