LOST ON JONES.

The old horse seemed to know what
was expected of him and hobbled
around to fourth street and stood in
front of the Jones campaign COM
mittee rooms for some time, when he
was finally driven Off by some small
boys.
On approaching a negro to-day who
had a hand full of tickets, we asked
him who he represented, "Well boss"
said he, represents all NV EN-, you
can just take yonr chorce. On exem-
ination we found that he had five
different tickets, but said he didn't
care cent who "got there"
We hope to be able, tomorrow
evening, to give nearly all the cleo
ton returns. AS we 60 to press this
evening everything looks very encour-
aging, and although it is conceded
that it will be closer between Mills
and Jones than expected, Mills will
receive handsome majority in Waco
RETURNS OF BOXES.
The vote is very heavy in all the
wards of the city. The indications
are, First ward one hundred majority
for Mills. Second ward two hundre
majority for Mills, Third ward in
doubt, Fourth ward so majority for
Jones, Fifth ward in doubt. A mes
senger arrived from West at two
O'Clock and announces that West will
give Mills an overwhelming majority.
Roberts store has probably gone for
Jones, Proctor Springs gives Mills IA
big majority HubbyHouse is in doubt,
the Poor house gives Jones a
a majority. The indications are that
Mills will come to the B.azos from the
east side OF the county, 1~itif 400 ma
jority. Dan Ford, Kincaid, and Dick
enson will carry the county by hand
some majorities, while the county
ticket is elected by majority of abou,
1000 votes.

THE amendment of the present state
election law has been under discussion
ever since the recent election. Senator
Whiteman, the author of the law, ad-
mits that it was in a crude state, but
this was due for the most part to amend
ments passed at the last session which
changed the law as originally drafted
These amendments, he says, were Off
cred in hopes of defeating the bill en-
tirely. Mr.. Whiteman will offer an
amendment this winter in regard to the
time of opening and closing the polls,
making the hours from Z until 5 O'Clock
instead of from until Z, as now. His
plan is to have at least three or four
more days for registration. He will
seek to amend sections 13 and IL relat-
ing to separate ballots and ballot
boxes, so that they will apply to the
entire state instead of to cities of over
5000 population, as now. He will
also urge an amendment that Will de-
crease the number of tickets and bal
lot boxes so that the congressional
and legislative candidates can be
printed upon one ticket, the state
and judicial the same, also the county
and city tickets together.-Erchange.
If it Is desirable TO have less tickets
and ballot-boxes, and it certainly is,
why not have but one of each and
done with it? This division of the
tickets seems foolish, when the same
officers are to be voted for by all vot-
ers. 1t makes delay in voting and al
80 in counting. All this detail and red
tape renders it easier instead of more
difficult for those who desire to COM
NIT fra u Let's have one ticket,
and make it a misdemeanor to circu-
late, split and except tickets, save
those scratched by pencil or pen, and
it will be found that there will be less
confusion and no chance for fraud.

WHY the Republicans should crow so
Justify over the results of the late Presi-
dental election, or why Democrats
should feel detected, has no foundation
to rest upon, aside from the fact that one
party has gained the FederaI Offices and
the other party has lost them. Cleve-
land received majority of the votes OF
the people, as he did in 1884. A change
or saving of ], 400 votes in Indiana and
a change or saving of 5000 in New York
would have reelected Cleveland.-Le-
Sueur Sentinel.
Don't you remember how you boosted
four years ago over the great" victory,
and how many times you referred to the
twill of the people" as expressed in a
little scratch of 1000 votes in the great
state of New York? Have you consid-
cred that the change of less than one
vote in every 1000 cast in that state four
years ago would have elected Blaine,
and saved the country the antics of the
man of destiny? Mr.. Harrison has a
plurality in every state he has carried
that brings some force with it, and il
the returns of one or two Southern
states that are his are not fixed up in
the ludicrous recount" he will have the
largest majority in the electoral college
of any President for score of years.
The Republicans can stand this sort oil
"drawn battle" for long time to come.

THE Pioneer Press in speaking of The
Senatorial situation in this county says
According to the Geographic reports
of the convention which nominated the
Republicans who were elected to the
lower house, there more than at any
other point the Sabin and anti-Sabin
matter came up and the latter faction
prevailed. The four members-elect
Messrs. Barr, Lassow, Perrin and Davis
are as yet non-committal on the senator.
lal question.
The p. p. may assure itself that "tele.
graphic reports" are very unreliable on
such subjects. If the question of sena.
torial preferences entered into the con
test in the county convention nobody
but the p. p. correspondent found it out
The fact that the members-elect are non.
committal goes to show they are ignor.
ant of the idea that their nomination
was evidence that the anti-Sabin faction
had prevailed.
The only reliable "pointer" as to the
feeling on this subject yet at hand is the
defeat of John c. Wise, who made his
fight for election on the sole issue of 1.
am-down-on-Sabin-with- both-feet until.
Idle. The fact of Mr.. Wise's failure to
impress the people with the danger be.
setting Mr.. Sabin's reelection furnishes
pretty sure indication that our people
are not afflicted with the anti-Sabin mo.
nomania as has been studiously repre-.
scented.
We gladly give the Pioneer Press the
benefit of this information, as its editor
appears to be in sad state of doubt.
The Mankato free press. [volume] (Mankato, Blue Earth County, Minn.) 1879-1924, 1888-11-30

If the ardent supporters of the differ
ent candidates for the US. Senate from
Minnesota would be as considerate in
their criticisms regarding the choice OF
these who do not agree with them on
this question, as are the friends and sup
porters of Senator Sabin, the canvass
will Gloss with much more credit to the
Republican party than it gives evidence
of at this writing. While the FREE
PRESS has frankly stated its position, il
Gov. Washburn, Major Strait, Judge
Start or any other of the eminent gen.
tlemen whose names have been promi-
nently mentioned for the Senatorship
shall be chosen, no paper in the state
will give the successful candidate a
more hearty support, according to its
ability, than this paper. We have the
highest regard for all the gentlemen
named. but believing that Mr.. Sabin's
senatorial course has been entirely cred
table to the great state of Minnesota,
and that his experience renders him
especially valuable to the state at this
time. We see no good reason why he
should not succeed himself, while there
are many reasons why he should do 30.
There is no argument in personal abuse,
and nothing convincing in malignant
editorials. II would be far more cred.
liable for Republicans and Republican
papers to treat members of their own
patty at least with degree pf respecta-
bility, and while doing this, boom their
particular favorite for all there is in
them.
