Fl Cores de Sonora of Mexico says that an engineer employed by an Amer ican company who recently visited the Cerro del Mercado in Durango, says that the iron in sight on this mountain is sufficient to furnish all the smelters of England with ore for period of 80 years. The iron which may be obtained without excavating one inch exceeds 100,000000 tons, and the value of the ore that may be taken out runs up to the astounding figure of 9,900, 100000 pesos, at the price of this product when the in- vestigation was made The newspaper cited asserts that the German engineer Frederick Weidner, who has made a more careful study of the wealth of the Cerro del Mercado than any one else, ayers that it contains 1,046 004 200 cubic feet of metal, which is sufficient to sup ply the smelters now in existence or which may come into existence for cen turies to come. Mexican engineers agree that the iron mountain referred to is the greatest in the world, and are of the opinion that there are similar masses of iron in the country, which will be discovered little by little.

An odd suit has just been decided in Sumner county, Kansas. Mrs. Rosa Lusk asked for $1o,0O0 damages from the city of Caldwell for the death of her husband, who feil on the street and broke his neck. In her petition she set up that MT. Lusk was drunk and had officials permitted the joints in which her husband got whiskey to run, she said, and, therefore, the city was re- sponsible. The court held that the city was not responsible for the lapse of its officers in not enforcing the liquor law.

It is estimated that the fame which attaches to Stratford-on- Avon because of the fact that Shakespeare was born there is worth $5000,0OO to that town. The charges for admission to the poets house, to Anne Hathaway's cottage, to the church, to the memorial and to the grammar school net $150,00O yearly-a sum which is equivalent to an income of 3 per cent on the $5, 900, 900 capital. This calculation does not take into &C., count the income to the railroads from the pilgrims to the Warwickshire Mecca, and there is no estimate of the profits of the Stratford tradesmen, who do a good business in photographs, pam phlets and trinkets relating to the town and the great bard.

Mayor Smith, of Macon, Georgia, has plan for systematically planting trees in that already beautiful city. His idea is to set aside one day in each Novem- Der to plant trees in the parks that adorn the middle of the streets. The city will furnish cast-iron box to pro- tect the base of each of the trees. In the box will be cast the name of the person and the date of planting the tree. Each person who pays twenty five cents for tree will have the right to furnish the name to be cast in one box. As many as a dozen names may be furnished in the same way at one time by any person. The names used in tile boxes may be those of either liv- ing or departed friends.

If Judge Deemer is appointed chan
cellor of the law department of the
State University it is likely that Judge
Green of this city will become candi-
date for the vacancy on the supreme
bench. Judge Deemer's appointment
would be most excellent one. His
high character and abilities mark him
as man eminently fitted for the place.
Judge Green would be enthusiastically
supported for the supreme bench by
Audubon county and, we think, by the
entire district both judicial and con
gressional. Judge Green has made a
record on the bench which compares
very .iavorably with the very best in
the state. he has those abilities of
research, of mental grasp, of analy sis,
of scholarship and has judicial fairness
and absolute honesty which so to make
the admirable Judge. His elevation

New York, Nov. lit became evil
dent at very early hour last evening
that the election of Mckinley and
Roosevelt was assured. At $40 p. IN.
returns from nearly two-thirds of the
election districts of Greater New York
had been received, indicating beyond
question that Bryan and Stevenson
could not expect more than 25.OO0 or
10000 plurality in this Democratic
stronghold and unless there was
landslide In the outside counties be-
yond all reasonable expectations the
pivotal state of New York had de-
clared in unmistakeable terms, al
though by reduced majority. for the
Republican candidates. Returns from
Illinois betrayed like condition. The
Republican gains over 1896 seemed to
indicate that Delaware, Maryland and
West Virginia had given decisive Re
publican pluralities. The count in sew
eral of the far western states was nat
urally so delayed as to give little in
dication of the outcome there, but they
had ceased to have determining eff
feet, and before IL o'clock the Demo
cratic leaders had given up the con-
test, and II was announced that Mr..
asleep.
Thewhole story was easily and briefly
told. The Republican ticket would have
larger electoral vote than four years
ago, but in the larger states of the east
and middle west the pluralities had
been greatly reduced.
Massachusetts had fallen from 174,-
900 to 10000; New York from 26S, 5000
to 135.000 and Illinois from 10000
to 100000 or less.
The 57th congress seems to be Re
publican by substantial working ma
jorlty.

parently followed the national and

New York. Nov. 7.-Returns received
this morning indicate that the Repub-
leans won New York by about 10000
and that the Democrats have carried
Greater New York by about 10000.
This forms one of the surprises of the
campaign for the reason that the Re
publican chairman and candidate for
governor, Mr.. Odell, had claimed the
state in his ante-election estimates by
only 100000 and the Republicans gen
orally have been willing to concede
that Mr.. Bryan would carry Greater
New York by at least $4,000. The
Democrats claimed that Bryan would
carry New York by from $4,000 to 3d.
900.
Richard Croker sent Mr.. Bryan tel
egram informing him that, though the
state had gone heavily Republican,
New York county, which In 1896 gave
Mckinley 23,0O0 plurality. had been
carried by the Democratic electors by
$4,000, a gain of $4,000. Mr.. Croker
was also quoted as saying: mo power
ON earth-nothing but his death-can
prevent Mr.. Bryan from remaining the
national leader of the people"

Republicans Win Complete Victory--De-
feat for senator Pettigrew.
Sioux Falls, $. d.. Nov. mo doubt
remains that the Republicans have
won complete victory in South Da-
kota. Frank Crane, chairman of the
Republican state committee, has per-
sistently refused to be quoted during
she present campaign on the probable
outcome of the election, but at mid
night he said: I'VE have secured suf-
Hcient returns from the state to con-
cluslvely show that we have carried
the state for Mckinley by a plurality
of from 10000 to 1900 and we have
elected our two nominees for congress
and the entire state ticket. We will
have a majority of 40 on joint ballot
in the legislature, insuring the cleo
ton of Republican to succeed Sem
ator Pettigrew."
The result has been a surprise to
both sides, as the fusionists expected
Bryan to carry the state, while the Re
publicans did not expect McKinley's
plurality to reach more than 5000 or
5000.

result of the election in Minnesota
was settled, so far as the presidential
vote is concerned, but the figures on
the head of the state ticket are still
too meagre to make any final state
ment. The Mckinley presidential
electors have carried the state by over
10000 plurality, some estimates and
claims going far by that figure. The

received on the legislature. The bal
ance of the Republican ticket seems
to have been elected.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF AUDUBON COUNTY

The speakers bureau of the republi-

managed by A. +. Dawson and from
what we have observed and from what
business we have had with it we believe
it was managed this year with skill,
method and energy. The place of
manager of that bureau in a state
especially in presidential
year is an exceedingly difficult one to
fill. Dawson did splendidly.

1917 for Bryan, thus assuring him
majority Of at least 10000 in the state.
The defeat of the Democrats has been

no doubt that Missouri has gone
Democratic by plurality estimated at
from 10000 to 10000. The national
Democratic ticket received a heavy
vote all over the state. Congressman
Alexander NJ. Dockery, the Demo

a majority that is but slightly smaller
than that of Bryan and Stevenson. Re-
turns from 100 out of the 1888 precincts
of st. Louis received up to 3 o'clock
this morning show Democratic gains,
but these returns with but few excep-
lions come from Democratic strong
holds. The Worlds fair constitu-

overwhelming majority, thus insuring
the success of that project.
