HUGHES NOT ELIGIBLE.
For Congress in Fourth Dis
trict Not Citizen Long Enough.

James AHughes who is elected Ia
Congress in the Fourth district is not
eligible for the reason that he has not
been citizen of the United States for
seven years as required by the Con
stitution ofthe United States. Mr..
Hughes was born in Canada and was
only naturalized on The evening pre-
ceding his election. He claims, how
ever, that some years ago, about the
time be was holding office in Ken.
lucky, he took out naturalization
papers before police court in some
town in Kentucky, but there is nc
record Of it, Even If this were true,
the court was not court of record
under the laws of Kentucky aud con.
sequently had no authority to ma
turalize foreigners. The laws of the
United States provide that the dee
laration must be made before a
United States court or some state
court of record having common law
jurisdiction. In the event that
Hughes is declared ineligible, as
seems apparent that he must be.
some doubt has been expressed
whether Collins would be declared
elected or vacancy would exist.
Theirs seems to be no reason to
doubt that Collins would be entitled
TO the seat. The votes cast for a
candidate who is not eligible count
for nothing, and the candidate who
is eligible, having the greatest mum
her Of votes is elected. While par
tisanship in this country has run
rampant. it can hardly be that Con
gress would ignore plain provision
of the law and seat man who is
clearly ineligible The very fact
that Hughes made a new declaration
on the eve of the election, thus giving
away and publishing the real situa-
ton is strong proof Of the fact
that he did not rely on the attempt
ed naturalization before the Ken
lucky police court. He evidently
overlooked the provision Of the law
which declares that to be eligible for
Congress he must have been a citizen
for several years. The new natura-
lization made him citizen aud
gave him the right to vote, but it
did not make him eligible for Con.
gress.

Death of Mr.. John Lindsey.

LINDsEY-JohnI |. Lindsey died at
his home in Pittsburg on Friday Nov
ember 23d 1900, after long illness,

locating ia Pittsburg where he has

Dayton's Majority Nearly Twenty Five
Hundred-DOyenor Gets Oyer FIVE
Thousand.

The official majority of Dayton in
this district is 2,4S2. For Doyenor
it is 5, 129. The figures for the third
and fourth districts are not yet avail
able nor are those for the state at
large. On the day following the
election this paper stated that Dayton
appeared to have twenty-five hundred
and that Governor would run about
five thousand. These figures are
found to be very close.
The vote on the state will be watch
ed with interest. 1t is thought that
the claim of seventeen thousand will
not be very far wrong but there is
nothing yet on which to base the
figures. Gaines is claimed to have
five thousand while Hughes is said to
have about the same. However these
may be scaled down somewhat.
The official vote OF Ohio is the
same as that cast for Bryan in 1896.
This is unprecedented in the history
OF our elections. 1t is very curious
result and one that will be full of
meaning for those who had predicted
a vast increase due to the Jones vote
and to other disturbing factors over
there.

HAD THE KNOT RE-TlED.
Joseph AnthOnyIand Wife, Of Washing
ton, Pa, Who We're Married in 1898,
Parted in 1896 and Divorced in 1898,
We're Again Made Man and Wife.

WASHINGTON, Pa, Nov. 24.-Jos-
eph Anthony and Mrs. Lille Anthony,
both of this place, were married for
the second time last evening by Rev.
J. w. Cary, of the Jefferson avenue
Methodist Episcopal church. They
were first married in the summer of
1893 by Rev. G. W. Westfall. at the
residence Of Joseph Wright, in West
Washington, and lived peaceably to-
gether for period of three years
During this time two children were
born and the husband was devoted to
his home. In January, 1896, domes-
tic difficulties arose and the wife went
to reside with her parents, taking the
children.
Anthony repeatedly solicited his
wife to return. His efforts, however,
met with no success, and in 1898 he
brought suit for divorce, alleging,
among minor complaints, that his
wife's refusal to return to her home
was the direct results of undue inf1u-
ence exercised by her parents, who
had always been opposed to the mar
riage The divorce was granted.
Recently through the efforts of
friends, the two were prevailed upon
to bury the past and travel through
the future just as if cit never had
been," the episodeculminating in the
marriage of last evening.

The Revival Services.

Last night large congregation at
tended the Methodist Episcopal revi-
val services. After prayer by Rev.
Dr. Buchanan the Rev. #. W. Gee
preached very plain, solemn and APP
propriate sermon from the words
what shall it profit a man if he
shall gain the whole world and lose
his own soul. Or what shall a man
give in exchange for his SOUL" The
trend of the sermon was to show that
the deathless human soul surpassed
all worldly things in value. and that
its immediate salvation from sin and
its splendid heavenly Immortality
should so thrill all unconverted people
as to arouse them to intense and
prompt religious action. The 3 p. M.
meeting was well attended.
