The militia held a meeting last Sat
urday night but owing to the absence
of Capt. Spur no business was trans
acted except the appointing of cons.
mittees to draft bylaws and also to
solicit funds for putting a hardwood
floor in the armory building.
The rules Of the national guard
provide that meeting shall be held
once each week. There is quite de-
mand that the regular meeting night
be changed from Saturday to some
other night, but the change will prob
ably not be made till the committee
on by laws reports. Therefore
meeting will be held tonight at the

Democrats viii Not Concede Republican
Control of the House.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 11.-Chairman
Babcock of the Republican congressional
committee now believes the Republican
majority in the next house will reach 20.
At the headquarters of the Demo-
cratic congressional committee conf
dence is expressed that the Democrats
will control the next house of repre-
sentatives Secretary Kerr will not
concede many of the claims made by
Chairman Babcock of the Republican
committee and says that in large num-
Der of districts it will require the official
count to determine definitely the result.
1T seems certain, said Secretary
Kerr, ''that we have elected 1873 mem
bers of the next house, the Republicans
1873 and that II districts are in doubt.
Information is slow in coming in, be-
cause the count in so many of the dis
tricts is very close. Our figures are
based upon definite returns and am
satisfied that they are entirely accurate.

PROGRESS ON THE wATERwoRks
Chances Good for the System to
Be Completed This Fall.

All the different branches of work
on the waterworks system are pro-
crossing with the regularity Of clock
work The laying of the mains is
completed except for a short distance
on the west side of town, and the feed
main from the wells During the
week a sprinkling hydrant has been
put in diagonally opposite from ] ID.
Goods corner Two drinking foun-
tains have arrived and are to be put
in near the Farmers elevator and also
on 9th street near where Fowlers
tank is at present.
The wells are being dug. There
are to be six Of them thirty five feet
deep. There is some indication Of
the remarkable flow Of water from the
fact that the water is now within six
feet from the top of the one which is
completed.
The foundation of the tower is
completed and the pumping station
is about finished. The machinery is
now expected in week and then can
easily be put in place in two weeks.
The plumbers have many connections
made and no doubt many will be
using city water three weeks from
now.
The proposition of the Great Nor
thern to pay S35 per month for water
for ten years was considered unsatis
factory and altogether too binding by
the council. They think that the
water is at the lowest figure worth
$40 per month and they do not feel
like tying up the city to a ten-year
proposition.

FAREWELL RECEPTION.
rendered by the D. OF R. to Mrs.
Johnson and Mrs. Tebbets.

We ale under obligations to a
! member Of the Degree of Honor for
the following account of the farewell
reception rendered by that lodge to
Mrs. A. I'll. Tebbets and Mrs, j 7.
Johnson.
"One of the pleasantest and at the
same time sad affairs that it has been
our privilege Of participating in, in
long time was a surprise rendered
Sisters Johnson and Tebbets by the
Degree Of Honor at the home of the
Chief of Honor, Mrs. N. A, Nilsson,
last Friday NoY 4th,
There was always pleasant flow
OF conversation interspersed by de-
lightful musical programme rendered
by Miss Hulburd, Miss Stinson, Miss
Nilsson and Prof. Sobey. There has
strong friendship grown in our
lodge for our two departing sisters,
both Maids of Honor, and it is with
the deepest regret we bid them
goodbye. AS slight token of our
esteem, they were each presented
with dainty gold and silver cream
spoon, and we heartily hope they
may have the cream in life. Sister
johnson accompanied by her hus-
band, returns to the old country to
visit the haunts of her childhood.
We all wish her bon voyage. 1t is
not decided where Sister Tebbets
will be located To our hostess, Sis
ter Nilsson, is due many thanks for
the delightful time we all had, and
whose home had been so especially
decorated for our coming together.
The back parlor was draped in the
national colors and the refreshment
room in the lodge colors, pink and
white. Sister Nilsson recited a short
poem and there was a goodly flow of
after dinner speeches. When we
broke up at late hour hoping
not to have similar occasion
for coming together soon, feel
ing that it you'd be pleasant to get
together oftener.

Republicans Capture Everything Ex-
cent tie Goxernorsl1ip.

cepL the UOVernOrSHlps
John Lind is elected by plurality
of about 1900. The total vote Of
the state was over 100000 below that
Of two years ago, and no doubt the
greater part Of this was Republican,
Lind was the most aggressive of the
two candidates for governor and 50
succeeded in getting out his vote
All the rest Of the Republican state
ticket, including Judges Lovely,
Brown and Lewis, is elected Lewis,
the lowest Of the Republican nomi-.
nees, is fully 1000 ahead Of CAVITY,
the highest Of the Fusion candidates.
All Of the seven Republican con
gressmen are reelected Eddy making
the run Of his life and piling up a
plurality Of 1000 The contest is
very close in the sixth district, but in
dications are that Morris is to win out
by few hundred.
The Republicans will have ma
jority of something like "a in the ma
tional house and eighteen ma
jority in the senate, Thus the admin
istration is supported and the Repub-
licans will have full control of nation
al affairs.
The Minnesota house and senate
will be Republican and Senator Davis
will be returned.
Col Roosevelt carried New York
and the Republican legislature will
elect Republican successor to Sena-
tor Murphy.

Tuesdays Vote Taken to Mean an Endorse

LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. lion the re-
suits Of the election United States Sen
ator John n. Thurston says:
The sweeping victory in the West,
including Nebraska, means the uncon-
ditional Endorsement Of President Nc
Kinley's administration, the conduct of
the war and his foreign policy. The
battle was fought on the straight gold
standard platform, and the result, in
my Judgment absolutely eliminates
free silver as national issue in 1900.
The entire tendency of independent
voters is to return to old party allie
glance, with permanent gains to the Re
publican party from the best element Of
Democracy and Populists. This is
largely due to the prosperous conditions
Of agriculture and business generally.
The people are satisfied with present
conditions.
In Nebraska the fusionists early in
the campaign practically abandoned the
free silver issue and for a time at
tempted to maintain themselves by crit
icisln of the conduct of the war. Driven
from this they fell back upon the Nc
Cleary bill.
The Republican campaign was very
active and aggressive, and successfully
met the three issues in detail. Above
everything else. however, was the pa
trioric determination to stand by an adj
1ninistration whose victories in war and
whose far-reaching and successful for.
oi::ll policy has won the admiration OF
0ar;stendom /"
