ILLINOIS.

Chicago, Nov. S.-Returns from Hi
nOis show complete Democratic land
slides in many points and Democratic
gains nearly everywhere that elections
were held. It is a noticeable fact that
the gains We're greatest at the places
where there was an extensive labor
vote. Williamson county went Demo-
cratic for the first time in fifteen years.
Carterville, a strong labor city, which
gave a Republican majority of 81 for
Mckinley in 1896, now comes to the
front with a Democratic majority of
2O5. Wherever there was interest man
ifested the Democratic gains We're
greatest.
Marion, Nov S-There was a COM
plete revolution among the voters of
Williamson county. Returns from sew
enteen precincts give E. H. Bulliner 165
majority for county commissioner over
NJ L. Duncan, Republican.
The returns from the other two pre-
cincts viii probably reduce the ma
jOrity some, but not enough to defeat
Bulliner.
The county went 474 Republican last
year and 46O for Mckinley in 1896.
CarterViIIe Nov. S.-Carry the news
to John R Tanner that Carterville, one
of the strong labor cities OF southern
Illinois, has accepted his challenge and
passed on his case and instead of a Re
publican majority of 81 given Mckinley
in 1896, now gives BuIliner, the Demo-
cratic candidate for county commits
sioner, a majority of POS
Eight Mile, which gave Al Republican
majority in 1896, now goes 48 Demo-
cratic.
The indications at this hour are that
Williamson county has gone Democratic
for the first time in fifteen years. .

COncordia, Nov S.-Ten out of TWEEN

gave 1S5 Republican majority, which
shows a Populist gain of y. Returns

Troy, Nov. S-PensiOn Agent Cyrus
Leland, who has lived in DOniphan
county for the past forty years, had
his vote challenged yesterday, and had
to swear it in. He was accused of be
ing a nonresident because he resides
temporarily in Topeka. The challenger
the Troy Times, POpulist, and brother
of Frank Elliott, the editor. Much in
tereSt was shown in the fight for treas
urer and township trustee. Graves, Re

Denver. Col. Nov 8-YeYsterday's
election has resulted in a complete vic
tory for the Democratic ticket in this.
CArapahoe) county by a plurality of
from 5000 to 5000. and possibly by
a clear majority. The Silver Re
publican vote will not reach 5000 out Of
a total of $4,000 cast in the county The
result is largely due to the popularity
of the proposition to issue bonds of the
city of Denver for the construction of a
municipal water plant which was ad-
voca ted by the Democrats and opposed
by the other parties. The proposition
carried by a large majority. The Wo-
men were very active during the day as
well as during the campaign. Returns
from the state are very neagTe and in
dictate that results are mixed. Only
county officers were voted for in this
state.

VOTING MACHINES
Used For the First Time in Rochester
Give Satisfactory Results.

Buffalo, n. Y, Nov. 8.-The standard
voting machine was used in this city
today for the first time and accom-
plished all that was expected of it.
The result in the city was known IS
minutes after the polls closed, on the
head of the ticket, which was computed
first. The Republicans made q clean
sweep, eIecting city treasurer and other
city officers by majOrities ranging
from , 600 to Geo. The Republicans also
elect their entire councilmanic ticket
giving them seven members and the
Democrats two. They also elect 13 Of
the % aldermen.
In the county Thomas Penny, Re
publican, for district attorney, is elect
ed by about 10000 plurality, and John

Former Justice Joseph F. DAILY who
was nominated by the Republicans for
justice of the supreme court but who
was not indOrsed by the labor party

Practically all political interest in
this city and even throughout the state
is now conferred in the question as to
whether or not there will be a contest
made by Robert NIazet, Republican, who
was defeated yesterday by 400 votes by
Perez M Stewart Tammany and Citi-
zens' union candidate for assembly in
the Nineteenth New York district.

MISSISSIPPI

Jackson, Miss, Nov. 8.-Scattering re-
lions of the state indicate a very light
vote in the Mississippi election. The
entire Democratic state ticket is elected
by a majority conservatively estimated
at 10000. The official count will not
greatly vary these figures. The Popu-
list vote shows a decided falling off,
which will probably amount to 80 per
cent. Not over $4,000 votes were pOlled
during the day. The POpulists have
probably elected a member of the leg
islature from ChOctaW county. The
vote on the Noel amendment providing
for an elective judiciary is decidedly
close and viii require an official count
to determine the result.

The Sleep of the Gums.

Cease, guns! Be still; one day is set
Which strife nor battle mars,
For souls that in their cloudy tents
Are camping near the stars.
Some forms on lofty hiltops resi-,
Some in the valleys lie;
The tropie grasses wave DER some.
Ger some the waters sigh.
Rank, line, and file forever more
Shall dream of glory proud,
While floats the flag they carried far
And gathered for a shroud.
Sleep on, brave hearts, nor heed the sound
Of charge or bugle-cal;
Full many a bronzen group shall rear
On arch and pillar tall.
Nor any winter wind that sweeps
Der fields that sigh for June,
May hush the hero-songs that rang
Beneath the harvest moon.
And oft the maid shall wreathe her hair
As she goes forth to wed;
And in her tale unto her babe
Shall be your story said.
Nor myths of olden,. stranger lands,
Nor deeds of Greece and Rome,
Can dim the light that burns for you
In this, your native home.
And where the ships of battle glide,
Or marching COLUMNS fret
The ears of men, your honored names
Shall be remembered yet.
Cease, guns; be still!

Conpress' Action,

Washington. July 22.-Secretary of the
Interior Hitchcock has disapproved the
recommendation Of the commissioner of

LOOKS LIKE REVOLUTION.
Difficulties Arc Such as HAVE Pre-
cedcd II in the Past.

Managua, Nicaragua, July 1.-Difficul-
ties are daily arising in Nicaragua of a
character such as in the past have indi-
Gated the outbreak Of revolution. The
failure of Nicaraguas special minister
plenipotentiary to Salvador TO negotiate a
commercial treaty, and his return under
a cloud have led the government TO be-
lieve that Salvador has entered into an
alliance with Costa Rica, the terms Of
which are believed to provide than the
government of Salvador shall assist Costa
Rica in the event Of war between that
country and Nicaragua.
Several newspapers have been suppressed
by the government because of the publica-
tion in them of articles not complimentary
to the authorities.
Ell Nacional was ordered to suspend pub
lication a few days ago, but after many
explanations had been made and a number
of appeals reported TO the government by
the owners and editors of the paper, it was
permitted 10 resume publication.

ZELAYA IN DISTRESS
President of Nicaragua Orders
Forced Loan of $780, 900.

President of Nicaragua Orders n
Forced Loan of S5OO,OOO.
Mobile, Ala, July 22.-Mail advices from
Central America by the last fruit steamer
indicate that the latest revolt in Nicara-
qua, in the Meridional department. is
causing the administration of President
Zelaya serious concern. Since the rising
of Cen Reyes, in the Bluehelds region,
there have been a series of unsuccessful
attempts against zeiaya which he has sub
dued with aid from the liberal adminstra-
ton of Honduras and Salvador.
1t is said in a letter received in this city
yesterday that Zelaya has issued an order
for a forced loan of 100000 to be raised
Immediately, and that his proclamation in
structs the departmental commandants to
insist that every available resident of Mic
aragua shall assist the republic without
delay.
The letter adds that the censorship exer-
cised mainly by governmental control of
the telegraph lines IN the republic makes II
most difficult to learn any news OF the
revolution in Nicaragua, except that sent
to the press of this country from the bor-
dering republics not in sympathy with Ze-
lava, but that the fact of the forced levy
tells eloquently the distress of Zelayas ad-
miDistTat ton.
