Kentucky Board of Contests Hurriedly
Agrees on a Report.
FRANKFORT, KY, Feb. l. - While

tests between Goebel and Taylor for
governor and Beckham and Marshall
for lieutenant governor met in the city
hall to consider the evidence submitted
to them and prepare their report to the
legislature. A few legal authorities
were read to them at the request Of Sem
ator Allen, who wished light shed on a
few doubtful points. The vote was then
taken and by q strict party vote Of 10 to
/, William Goebel was declared to have
been legally elected governor Of Ken
lucky. The Beckham-M Marshall contest
was then voted upon and
strict Party Vote Of Nine to Two
settled this matter. No announcement
was made Of the reasons leading up to
the report being made SO hurriedly, the
boards taking everything at one leap.
Each one Of the members Of both com.
mittees announced that he had made up
his mind as to the merits Of the case
and voted promptly as his name was
called.
In the contest for governor Repre-
sentative Yarberry vas the one to vote
in favor Of Taylor, and in the Beckham-
Marshall contest Reid and Lilly were
with Marshall.
All effort was made by q number Of
the Democrats to get together a quorum
Of both houses and hold a night session

Owosso, Mich, June o, 1000.

MEssRs. HARTsHoRN & Son, Owosso.
Gentlemen:-After two weeks delibers-
ton, you say you got the Mccormick mower
of Henry Jacobs. There is no better evil
dence needed of Mr.. Jacobs shrewdness
than the fact that after working your farm
for three years he had a 90 year old horse
left. SO with his ability as horse trader
and your shrewdness to recognize bargain,
you got possession of Mccormick mower
at reduced price, either for the sake of
speculation on your part or for the purpose
of injuring the business of Payne & Co.,
and from the fact that you have kept the
mower at your store for weeks representing
to farmers and others that you could get all
OF them you wanted and for less money
than Payne & Co. could, furnished me
''ground" for ''insinuating" that you were
notfair with your competitors. However II
you are willing to admit that you bought the
mower on occount of its superiority, for the
sake of speculation or to use on your own
farm, l am satisfied. You can choose
either horn of the dilemma you please. You
say you traded $3.50 worth of ''other pro-
perty" for II, while true yet is quite mlslead.
ing as you paid $4,000 cash So so in ''othel
property" Your claim that you could ge,
all the Mccormick machines you needed led
me to believe you got the mower Of some
local agent because you advertise how hou-
est you are and that you "will not allow
your statesmen to misrepresent or deceive"
| frankly admit was mistaken. You fail tC
mention my second proposition, but will
leave 1t for the public to decide why you
| did not. did get mower for which you
are agent, not for its intrinsic value but OF
the record 1t has made. i did not ask you
whether you were "happy" in wrong doing
or whether you had any ''pins prickiDg you
or any "kicks due you" or any of the ether
silly things you refer to. asked you by
what legal or moral right you claimed tC
sell Mccormick machines. You have
answered my first proposition as to where
you got the machine satisfactorily. have
paid the Dorcas Home the $40 as agreed.
now ask did you buy the mower because yor
got 1t cheap for the purpose Of speculation
or did you buy it for the purpose of injurns
Payne u Co.'S. business?
You say you have no time for further
correspondence with me. Judging from thu
length of tine you took to answer my othe
letter and the study it must have required
to so successfully dodge the point at issue
l think myself you better spend your tim,
seeking bargains. Yours truly
GEO. M. GRAHAM.

Death of Loren Hopkins.

The death of Loren Hopkins occurred
at the family residence on Cute street,
Monday afternoon. Mr.. Hopkins had
been in poor health for several months,
suffering from heart trouble. His death
was undoubtedly hastened by the acci-
dent which befell his wife several week s
ago.
Mr.. Hopkins was among the best
known men in the city, largely by
reason of his work for the First M. K.
church, of which he was most devoted
and active member. For years he had
been member of the official board
His counsel and prompt action were
OF great help to the church in years
gone by and to him more than to any
other one member is due the credit of
building the society up to its present
position as the strongest church in the
city. He was also always interested in
the schools of the district.
Mr.. Hopkins was born Feb. 10, 1926,
in Niagara county, N. Y, coming to
Michigon with his parents ten years
later and in 1866 to this county, pur-
chasing the farm just south of the city
which he owned at the time of his death.
In 1890 he gave up the active manage
ment of the farm to his SON. law, We'll
lington Williams, and removed to the
city to reside. Mr.. Hopkins was twice
married. His second wife and three
children, Frank d., of Owosso, Mrs.
Frank Dodds, of Saline, and B. S., a
teacher in the Menominee high school,
and an adopted daughter, Mrs. yelling.
ton Williams, survive him. The funeral
services were held in the M. E. church
yesterday afternoon, conducted by Rev.
j. p. Warner, assisted by Rev. Seth
Reed, and Rev. E. B. Bancroft. The
love of the people tor the dead was
clearly shown by the beautiful floral
tributes.
