THE ELECTION LAST MONDAY.
Rast Carroll Almost Solid for +
x. Ransdell.
large Vote for Him in Madison.

Tie primary election last MOI
day, ordered by the new Senatorial
and Judicial Committee, shows con
clusisely that Mr.. +. x. Ransdell
is the choice of the almost sofia
Democracy of East Carroll for the
Judgeshlp and of large proportion
of the people of Madison.
The vote for Mr. RanSdeli IN the
two parishes is largely in excess OF
the vote received by Mr. Holmes;
and if figures continue to tell tile
truth. the truth of the business Is
,ha, Mr.. Ransdell will be the nex'
Judge.
The vote of East Carroll is very
large, considering the extreme col'
weather. and shows that The peopi'
are in earnest in their support o
Mr.. Ransdell. The vote by ward
IS as follows.

Senator William Geebel, Demo

an assassin last Tuesday morning,
while entering the grounds of the
State Capitol at Frankfort. The
assassin used smokeless fowder and
could not be located. Goebel was
shot through the right lung, The
affair adds another chapter to the
terrible condition of affairs in Ken

of more bloodshed. The contrasting

Goebel entitled to the seat whae u

plished absolutely nothing up to the

of purpose that prompts them TO
fight il out to the bitter end, and
preparations are to be made for send
ing additional troops TO the Trans
