Majority Estimated at
About 100000.
Nebraska Considered Close
With the Chances Fa-
Voring Bryan.
Michigan Elects Pingree Gov
ernor and Republican
Electors.

CHICAGO, Nov. 4.-Returns from over
the state OF Illinois indicate that Nc
Klnley has made big gains in proper
ton throughout the counties and towns
as he has in Chicago, seeming to Justify
the claim of the central committee that
the state has gone 100000 Republican.
Ii the gains which are already reported
hold up in the districts yet to be heard
from, the majority, it is said, will ex-
coed that figure. In the southern part
of the state the gains have not been so
heavy, and several towns and counties
reported give Bryan small majorities.
From all other parts of the state the
dispatches received at state headquar-
tiers claim substantial Republican
majorities. In the dispatches COM
pairing the votes Of Tanner and
Mckinley, the former has in most in
stances run slightly behind the latter.
The figures, however, plainly show
that Tanners loss was no gain for Alt
geld. Forman was the gamer Com
parsons made with the vote cast for
Harrison in 1892 show very heavy gains
in nearly every instance over the Re-
publican vote cast that year. At head
quarters considerable surprise was occa-
stoned over McKinley's vote in num-
Der of counties which were expected to
give Bryan majorities, but which in
stead have gone for the Republican
candidate

THE X RAYS AND DISEASE.

No discovery of late years has eX-
cited as much interest as has that OF
the X rays by Prof. Roentgen. 1t was
most wonderful discovery and doubt
less took a more firm hold of the
average mind, creating more interest
because of the effect it is believed it
will have upon man.
There is no question, however, but
what its power in this direction has
been greatly overrated, not by those
into whose hands it has fallen for use,
but by the public generally. But
while it has been great help to sur
gerry that is as far as it's power ex-
tends for the pre- sent. In this respect
it has become great aid, and con-
cerning,it the ST. Paul Pioneer Press
says:
Every day or two we see announced
in a line the performance of some
difficult feat of surgery by its use, or
the removal of bullet, needle or
other foreign substance from some
sufferer Naturally, an agent which
can accomplish such great and uneX-
pected wonders in surgery was re-
garded for time, and before its pos
Sibilities were fully understood, as
opening vista of infinite heaIing and
benefCence to the human race. Suf-
ferers from all sorts of diseases clam
ored to have it's wonderful powers
turned upon the mysteries OF their
physical being in the belief that II
they could see for themselves, some
thing might be done in the way of re-
lief. Many invalids have not yet
abandoned this idea and hoping
against hope that their respective
diseases may by its aid be so diagnosed
that remedy will be comparatively
simple matter.
To all these inQuirers science, so
far, can give no word of encourage
ment. 1t seems, to most of us, great
thing thing that by means of this
strange, almost miraculous thing, the
bullet that lies close to some vital
portion of the body can be lnnOcuouSly
removed, the miSshapen bone set
straight, the nature Of the fracture
accurately ascertained. And it is a
great thing. But that is all, at
present, that the X rays can do for
the physician. They reveal only the
denSer substances, such as bone or
metal, passing through all softer It's
sues, including those of the vital or
gans. They do not reveal the cause
or nature of any disease of the Wit a
organs, or aid in the investigation of
cancer. tumOFs or diseases of the liver |
and bowels. We make this statement |
on reliable medical authority and for
the benefit of persons who are living |
in the hope that the X rays may some
how be turned to their benefit. With |
in year there has been added tO.the |
resources of the physician force that
he could not have believed possible
until it was proved to his scientific |
intelligence. No achievement of |
science has done more to dispel the
native scepticism of the scientific
mind than the X rays. Therefore we
are much less ready to say today than
we would have been year ago, that
there may not be found still more |
discriminating force, which shall make
the diagnosis of disease much easier
than it is now. But SO far it has not |
made it's appearance, and we can only
hope that it's discovery will not be
postponed many generations.

which they report to be 1913, 900,
which would, Of course, put the State
on a firm basis for 1896. Butw have
no assurance that the same conditions
will not exist in 1897, and the ques-
ton arises as to how the matter must
be dealt with then. A tax levy Of ST
mills, or thereabouts, will raise it, as
you can see, by estimating the taxa
BILE property Of the State at $l70 ,000,-
600, and then there is a proposition TO
make q levy Of 4! mills and raise the
other $3.50, 0OU or 5000, 900 necessary
by imposing a graduated occupation
license, as provided for in the new
Constitution. which will do 10 mate
rial damage to anyone. To put the
thing in a nutshell. they have either
to make o levy Of ST mills OF have a
deficiency Of one hundred and fifty or
two hundred thousand dollars, Or to
supply the deficiency from new
sources
The Legislature is now to consider
a levy for State purposes for 1897,
while the appropriation bill il for
money to be paid from the moneys
derived from the levy Of 1894-1895,
plus the insurance and. Secretary Of
State fees during 1896 and plus the
~dispensary fund of s193, 900 that has
been fixed for 1896. The levy and ap-
preparation are distinct. The levy is
for future purposes, while the appro-
priation bill is for money already col
lected or available.

color are given to one company, and
their names usually begin with the
letter which olassi6es the company.
Thus, the horses in Company &c"
are called Grover, Grant, Garfield,
Greedy, Grimes, and so on. The hor-
ses soon learn to which company they
belong. Many Of them from several
troops may be grazing upon a prairie,
but when the bugle sounds the stable
call they quickly assemble, the bays
to themselves and the ~sorrels and the
grays and blacks to their respective
commands. They are taught many
difficult maneuvers, one Of the most
interesting of which is to lie down so
that the soldier may use their bodies
as a protection from behind which to
fire at the enemy.
Very warm attachments naturally
spring up between the cavalryman and
his horse, and rare indeed is a case of
cruelty heard of. Captain Aleshire
says he has known soldiers out on the
plains, far from supplies and in a
desolate country, empty their canteens
into their hats and give the water to
their furnishing horses, robbing them
selves. Others have been known to
endure intensely cold weather while
their blankets covered their horses.
