sIeNINFICANCE OF THE ELEC-
TON.

CF'rom the Pittsburg Dispatch (Rep)
While extravangant claims are made
by leaders of both parties in regard to
the national significance of the var
fous state elections, there appears lit
tie foundation in fact for any of them.
The results in almost every instance
can be easily traced 20 local influences.
When great national questions are be
ing decided not much attention is given
TO third parties or side issues, as was
the case in Ohio on Tuesday, when a
Eelf-appointed candidate was clearly in
the running, having secured more than
enough votes to represent the balance
of power. In Cuyahoga county the
Cleveland street railway strike was
clearly the main inspiration of the
Jones vote. in Lucas county it was the
personal popularity Of the Golden Rule
candidate. In like manner Judge
Nash's personal popularity secured him
a majority at home in the Democratic
county of Franklin and in Hamilton
county an ordinary Republican major
ity was overturned. on a personal can
vass, in favor of Mclean.
The result in Maryland gives more
satisfaction to Republican Senator Wei
Hngton than to Democratic ex-senator
German. In Kentucky the fight was.
throughout, so clearly on PERSONAL
grounds that Bryan was advised to not
appear in the campaign. AS for NIassa-
chusetts, Iowa, New Jersey, New York
and Kansas the results are sufficiently
mixed to make it difficult for anyone to
draw national conclusions from them,
either singly or together. Had Nebras-
ka gone Republican it might have ex-
ercised some influence upon Bryan's
candidacy for the presidential nomina-
4ion. but the fact that it was carried

DEATH OF MRS. HEBRON.
One of Topeka's Oldest and Best
Known Citizens Passed Away.

Catherine Rear Heron, wife of Geo.
w. Heron, died this morning at 1905
o'clock at the family residence, 1900
Lane street.
Mrs. Heron was taken sick about
two months ago. Two weeks later she
suffered a stroke of paralysis from
which she never recovered. Death came
period of intense suffering. She left
surviving, her husband, an old and re-
spected citizen and business man of this
city, and at one time a member of the
city council for a period of six years,
and a daughter, Laura B. Hahn, wife
of W. z. Hahn, formerly a resident of
Topeka but now in business in New
York city. Mrs. Hahn came on from
New York when her mother was taken
sick and was with her constantly to the
end.
1885, in Morgan county, Ohio and was
married to George w. Heron in Athens
county, Ohio. August 49, 1860. They
moved to Kansas and located at To-
peka in 1854 and have resided here ever
since. Two other children were born
of this maria ge-Nettie Grace who
died in August, 1866, aged about four
months, and Lulu may who died July
6, 1879, at the age of Il years.
Mrs. Heron was a woman of strong
character, who met and fulfilled all the
duties and obligations of life in most
exemplary manner. She was most sin
cereIy respected and loved by all who
knew her.
The funeral services will be held at
the family residence Tuesday after
noon at 2 o'clock, conducted by Rev
L. BlakesIey, assisted by DR.. Fisk of
the First Congregational chhrch.

very significant of what it may do next
year.
As the Dispatch pointed out from the
beginning there was no possibility of
settling any national issues by these
state elections. The American people
are supporting the administration and
will support it through the war in the
Philippines independent of any differ
ences of opinion in regard to the final
disposition of those islands. If the state
elections have any significance in con-
nection with that subject, it is in show
ing that while the people support the
administration in defense of the flag
they are not going beyond the present
to give popular endorsement to any
policies not yet fully defined.
