VILLAGE ELECTION.
Passed or Very Quietly-Oniy
Only One Ticket in the Field.

Village election was held Monday.
There was only one ticket in the
field, the "Citizens," and but
little interest was manifested,
the majority of the voters
not deeming it worth the
trouble of wading through the deep
snow to go to the polls. Only
thirty-one ballots were cast, and
the entire ticket was elected with
the exception of Harvey Selden,
one of the candidates for the office of
trustee for the term of two years.
Selden's nomination at the caucus
was decidedly distasteful to the
people generally, and it appears
that a number concluded to erase
his name from the ballot and place
thereon the name of John Sterk,
and the latter was elected over
Selden by one vote. Walter Harris
also received four complimentary
votes for the same office. Follow
ing is the ticket as elected:
President-John O. MeKernan.
Clerk-Martin VoetSch.
Treasurer-Michael Culliney.
Trustees, two years-August
Menge, Patrick Bulger and John
Sterk.
Trustee, one year-John Fl.
Edgerton.
Assessor-Cornelius D. Shea.

He isn't acquainted with good
many important happenings during
the last two or three thousand years,
otherwise he wouldn't say the con-
duct of certain officials in Idaho sur
passes anything that has ever been
attempted in the world.
There is nothing very startling in
the way in which Steunenberg and
Merriam took charge of affairs in
riotous mining district. They mere
ly said that laws should be respected
and not violated, and because mis-
guided union had terrorized the com
munity and paralyzel industry, they
insisted that for time at least it
should not be allowed to exert its
bad influences in the operation of the
mines.
There is nothing very remarkable
in this as an event. 1t is merely the
display of praiseworthy determine
tion to preserve the peace, a plain,
common sense way of bringing order
out of chaos and converting turbu-
lent district into a peaceful com.
munlty where the rights of life, liber'
ty and the pursuit of happiness are to
be sacredly protected.-Spokesman

ExrRAHAGANr LANG UAGE.

Ed. Boyce, formerly miner, but
now professional agitator and would
be reformer of the world, is good
deal off in his history, If the published
account of his speech in Butte is cor
rect. He says: 'The conduct. of
GoYernor Steunenberg and General
Merriam surpasses anything that has
ever been attempted In the. world.
History does not record an instance
when it was necessary for working
man to secure a permit to seek en-
ployment in any country under the
sun except Idaho, where Demo-
cratic governor has descended to the
depths of depravltv in conjunction
with general of the army to com
pei workingmen to first obtain their
permission before accepting employ
ment.''
Evidently Boyce hasn't given very
profound thought to historical studies.

ELECTIONS IN SIX STATES.

There will be elections for gov
eTnor in six states this coming fall,
namely, Massachusetts, Maryland,
Mississippi, Kentucky, Ohio and To-
wa. Massachusetts and Iowa will
certainly go Republican, and Missls-
sippi can safely be placed in the De-
mocratic column. Maryland, Ken
tncky and Ohio have Republican
governors at the present time, but it
is doubtful if executives of that
faith are continued in power in all
the states mentioned.
I Ohio will probably elect Nash, the
Republican candidate for governor,
but his majority is not likely to be
overwhelming. In thirty years the
state has chosen only four Demo
Gratis for its highest Office, and no
one of these has ever received a sec
ond term. Although factional diff
ferences were apparently patched up
at the last convention In Colum mbus,
when Senator Hanna succeeded in
having his man nominated, some
apathy is certain to be displayed in
spite of the fact that All Ohio man is
president and that his candidate for
governor was nominated and will re-
n mi Of
Under normal conditions Kentucky
is Democratic. With 5000 gold
Democrats in revolt in 1896 McKin-
ley carried the state by 200 votes
only ANyear ago old party lines
were again Strengthened out and the
Democratic plurality was over 49,
900. Although the Republicans ex-
pect to wage very vigorous cam
paign, there is slight chance of theil
winning a victory.
The contest in Maryland is likely
to be close. The state now has il:
FIRST Republican governor in 80 years
The country districts are Republican
while the city of Baltimore is Demo
cratic, and the election will probably
turn on the vote of the municipality
A new honest election law is now il
force and the frauds of former year
in Baltimore are not likely to be re-
peated. This fact, the Republican,
claim, will be something greatly t.
their advantage.
