REPUBLICANS CARRY NEARLY
ALL THE STATES.
Audubon County Republican By 27S
and the Entire County Ticket
Elected But Sheriff.

Tuesdays elections resulted without
exception, in grand republican victo-
ries. No township or precinct has yet
reported where the party Of the people
did not triumph. Our dispatches else
where published show the scope and
character of the victory. Iowa swings.
back to her old landmarks and elects,
Gen. Drake by the hoggish majority of
nearly seventy thousand.
In Audubon county the results are,
most gratifying. The campaign had
been one of activity and education.
and republicanism always gains by
such canvass. All questions that
divide the parties were carefully con-
sidered and our voters never were bet
ter able than OIL Tuesday to give a
wise and righteous verdict. The at
tempt OF the democratic party to sub
ordinate eyey issue to their pet policy
of state wide license was a flat failure
as the people seem to consider the
present law settlement of that oues-
tion, for the time being at least. The
nominees and the platform dictated by
democratic federal administration
have been buried out Of sight and the
place set for the great republi can vic.
tory that is to come in 1896.
Audubon county republicans do their
part toward the great victory, as will
be seen by the tabulated vote publish
ed elsewhere. A. III. Edwards is elected
representative by majority something
near one hundred and fifty. i. d.
Phelps, the present county treasurer ia
reelected by more than two hundred
majority and all the ticket, save sheriff,
is elected by safe majorities. 1t is
indeed most sweeping and complete
victory and is good enough to last un-
| til 1896 when the last vestige of demo-
cratic misrule, false promises and in
competency will be wiped out.
The republicans of Audubon county
were never in better form for contest
than this year. Their ticket was good
without exception, their organization
was perfect and all the workers of con-
sequence were in line for victory,
which so grandly came. There are a
number OF things that democracy NAV
yet learn. For instance, that the liquor
| Question is not the only one that VII
tally concerns the people and that the
people will hold them to account as a
national party wherein they fail to be
true to the promises and pledges made.
The victory is as gratifying as it is de-
eisive and emphatic.

When sentence was passed on 1.-TWO

was on trial here in 1889 for the muir

Two Sticks is not popular, even

dian, according to their story. He was

grub in his mouth" wherever the In
dian wars have been most barbarous and
bloody, wherever the innate cruelty and
treaohery of the red man have been most
manifest, there Two Sticks has been in
the midst of them His hatred Of the
white man is bitter and intense.
Two Sticks received both verdict and
sentence with absolute Indifference
When asked by the judge whether he
had anything to say, he replied, without
any show of feeling or interest in the
matter: 81 am an old man, but have a

''He made it too. He was put.on big

States Banished From Boston Schools.

The reasons assigned by the school
committee for tho discontinuance OF
states, slate pencils and sponges in the
public schools and the substitution of
paper, lead pencils and rubber erasers
in their places are as follows:
First.-A light gray mark upon a
slightly darker gray surface is more or
less indistinct and trying to the eye
sight.
Second. The resistance of the hard
pencil upon the hard slate is trying to
the muscles, and the resistance to which
the muscles are thus trained must be
overcome when beginning to write with
pencil or pen upon paper.
Third-The use of states, slate pen.
ellis and sponges is very unoleanly GUS
tom and leads to and establishes very
uncleanly habits. Boston Herald.
