But the Fight Hot One.
Bismarck N. D., Nov. 5.-Returns are
coming in so slowly that it is difficult to
form an intelligent estimate on the legis-
lature. Very little is known yet except
as to the electoral ticket, governor and
congressman, but there is every indica-
ton that the republicans will have both
the Senate and House by a small majori-
ty. In the Senate, the republicans have
the advantage of having elected all but
ono or two hold-over senators Of two
years ago.
Friends Of United States Senator Hans
brough claim he has a majority of the
republicans thus far known to be elected.
In the three districts of Grand Forks
county all the republican legislative nom-
inees were Hansbrough men, and two are
elected.

feated. Many lawyers are Of the opinion

indianapolis, Ind, Nov. 5.-Indiana COM
plete with the returns from thirty
six counties taken from the official count
and the rest unofficial, gives the state to
Mckinley by 22,l45.
The republican state ticket has run
about {, 900 ahead of this owing to the fact
that the populists had a state ticket In
the field. The returns as wired in give
only pluralities and do not mention the

makes the delegations stand four demo-
Gratis and nine republicans. The repubn-
cans hold majority OF twenty in the

of the Library Fund.

Miseolua. Feb. 6.-The new school law
which went into effect last July pro-
vides a library fund for each school dis
trict. While this fund amounts to but
very little i'm any one year, the ac-
cumulation of a few books each year
will soon make good working library.
The fund amounted to 500 in the Mis-
soula district and has already been
used i'm the purchase of books. Instead
of purchasing single copies of books
such as are ordinarily found in Hbrar-
les, sets of books for class use were
bought. These books will be used in
class as supplementary to reading, geo
praphy, history and science.
1t was considered useless to pur-
chase the ordinary library books, since
this would simply duplicate the public
library. To which the pupils have &C
cess. Most of the books are for the
lower grades. The pupils of these
grades cannot read the books in the
public library and need the aid of a
teacher in reading. The following is
the list of sets of books purchased:
First Grade--Lane's Stories for Chill
drcn, Harper's First Reader, Stickney' S
First Reader and Wayside and Seaside,
No. /.
Second Grade-Cyr's Second Reader.
Baldwin's Fairy Stories, and Fables,

Marceau VS.. William Stewart, in which
the latter was accused of stealing one
of those useful culinary utensils and
seven lengths of stove pipe. From the
evidence produced, it appears that
sometime i'm March Stewart rented the
Marceau ranch at Grass Valley. In the
house on the place was a stove, ana
Stewart suggested that it be left there
stating that he would secure another
one in Missoula which he would trade
for ii. The deal went through. Ike
Gently Stewart moved off the Marceau
property, taking the stove with hln
Marceau at once had him arrested lor
