Days-Great Inconvenience Caused
to tine Patrons of the Road.

The train was unusually late coming
in Monday and Tuesday, and notwith.
standing that the residents of this Sec
tion have practically become accus-
toned to the miserable train service on
the Drummond and Philipsburg branch,
the unusually late arrival Of the train
for several days this week, has caused
considerable Inconvenience.
While there may be some excuse for
the delay occasioned Monday by the dis
abling of the locomotive, the company
is deserving Of criticism for supplying
this branch with an old rattle-t trap of
an engine that has to be taken to the
repair shop every other day.
A large revenue is derived by the
Northern Pacific Railway Company
from this district, and it would seem
that the public deserve somewhat better
service than the company has accorded
its patrons on the d ummoud and Phil
ipsburg branch. The traffic and freight t
business On the branch has been quite
heavy all summer and IS exceptionally
so at present If it is not sufficient to
Justify the running of two trains a day
the company should at least supply ii
locomotive that could do the work re-
quired without going to the repair shop
every day or two.

j. E. Abbey Appointed Temporarily to
the Position.
y. E. Abbey has been appointed tenn
porarily to the position of chief of po-
lice of this city, made vacant by the
resignation of George Stephens.
Mr.. Abbey is not entirely unfamiliar
with the duties of his new office al
though in late years he has been EN-
ployed by the n. P. R. R. Co. as station
agent at different points along their
route. While in his native state of
Ohio, and before he took to railroading,
Mr.. Abbey was commissioned justice
of the peace for number of years,
which posi- ion he filled very creditably.
The appointment to the position of
chief Of police Of course only tenn
porary, but it is believed the selection
will meet with the approval of the en-
tire council, and will be made for the
unexpired term at the next regular
meeting. There is no question that
Judge Abbey will make frst-class
police officer, and that his appointment
will be popular one with every tax
taxpayer in the city.

RESULTS OF ELECTIONS
Republicans Garry Several States
by Large Majorties.
A DECISIVE VICTORY IN OHIO
GOebel Claims His Election In Kentucky,
and Contest is Likely to Take
Place Returns From
Other States.

The latest election returns from Ohio
give Judge Nash for governor and the
rest of the Republican ticket plurality
OF 10000, and an unusually large major
ity in both branches of the legislatu g.
Z In Kentucky Taylor is elected gov.
ernor by a majority estimated from
600 to 10000.
AS usual the Democrats refuse to ad-
init their defeat and Mr.. Goebel and his
managers clam his election, although
they admit that his majority is small.
The returns so far obtainable indicate
that with but few excep ioLs the entire
Republican ticket has been elected by
good majorit:es.
While the Democrats carried Mary.

pubicans in New Jersey. The senate
will stand as last year. while in the as.

In Massachusetts the ants received a
decisive rebuke. Crane (Repy was
elected governor over Paine Dem by
about 10000
In Pennsylvania the contest was for

Iowa elected the entire Republican
ticket.

SIX Assemblymen.
The fusion ticket carried in Nebraska
San Francisco elected a Democratic
mayor on gold bug platform.
Sacramento, Cal elected a Republican

he returns summed up show a de.

Republicans did not carry all The states,

ACCIDENT IN A NINE.
james Patten Injured by Falling Rock In
His Mine.

james Patten Injured by Falling Rock In
His Mine.
James Patten was quite painfully in
jured by falling rock in his mine on
Hope hill last Mo'day afternoon. He
was making his usual tour of inspec-
tian and was engaged in taking a sam.
pie from the face of drift when the
cave occurred, and he was caught by
the falling rock
Miners employed in the vicinity of
the accident rushed to his rescue and
Mr.. Pat,en was released and taken to
the surface
Notwithstanding that he had received
severe cut near the right temple and
was suffering intense pain from a
fractured collar bone, Mr. Pa'ten
thought he could ride his saddle horse
home, but after an attempt he was
obliged to abandon that idea. Charles
Sprague then mounted the horse and
came to town after Mr.. Patterns buggy,
in which he was brought home.
A physician was called to attend him
and he was made as comfortable as pos
sib'e. He is now doing nicely and ex-
poets to be able to be out again in few
days
