The only accident of the day occurred in
this race. While about halfway over the
course, opposite Juniper island, two crank
bolts in the engine OF the Antonio broke,
and its cylinder was split. The engine was
not in good repair and, presumably, over
work caused the accident. The Mariquta

that they can raise money by taxing

raise money that way, or any other
way for that matter. Lastly there 10

WE frankly admit that we have
hut little confidence In the crowd
who have been elected as republican
members of the legislature. Some
are on the make; others have but
limited qualification for the position,

republican principles. The selection
of Douglass for speaker indicates
that this element Is in the ascendant.
