Harrison's Body At The State Capitol.

Fifty thousand people took last
look at the face of ex-President Harri-
son at the Capitol building of the State
of Indiana, last Saturday. For nine
hours continuous stream of people
passed the coffin, and when the doors
were closed several thousand more were
waiting patiently in line to pay last
tribute of respect to great man.
The body lay in state until 10 O'Clock
and not once during the hours was
there break or halt in the lines which
passed rapidly by on the right and left
of the casket.
1t was Indiana's day with her dead,
and most touchingly was the esteem
and honor in which General Harrison
was held by his fellow citizens revealed.
In front of the Harrison home, along
the streets through which the remains
were carried on their way to and from
the State House, in the lines that
stretched at times half mile from the
doors of the Capitol, men, women and
children stood for hours waiting their
opportunity to pay tribute of respect
to the dead,
1t was an immense throng, but one
more easily handled, or, rather, one
that required less handling, never
gathered anywhere. There was no
jostling, no disorder, no disturbance of
any kind.
Not single Objectionable feature
marred the day. The weather was
perfect.

Election Day.

The day, March 10, 1901, set apart
by promulged decree of the Board OF
Supervisors as the one upon which the
"battle of ballots" was to be fought to
determine whether jackson should or
should not become city OF the sixth
class, was typical California one.
The weather was simply perfect, just
cool enough for comfort and in every
way lovely. The three voting precincts
with their quote OF officials, were open
and ready for business promptly and
then the war began. There was no
arguments of note on the streets dur
ing the day. Those in favor of in
corporation who were entitled to vote,
proceeded to the proper precinct, cast
the ballot, and almost Immediately re-
turned to other duties. Those oppos-
ed, especially a few leaders, were on
the qui vive, however, from morning
till night, using every argument
imaginable to defeat the measure,
which they succeeded In doug, as
reference to the unofficial returns in
this paper will show. We are pleased
to be able to truthfully say that nothing
occurred during the day to interfere
with perfect peace and quiet. No
heated discussions; no boisterous talk
no infringement of the rules of decency
and decorum, but gentlemanly conduct
on the part of all participants during
the entire day. The table of the votes
cast will give further particulars.

A Fall In The Dark,

Night Watchman F. w. Parker met
with quite an accident on Friday night
of last week. He was conducting late
ledger to his bedroom in building
where carpenters had been engaged
during the day in laying a new floor.
The job was left unfinished and Mr..
Parker, who was familiar with the
premises, but ignorant of the condition
of the floor as left by the workmen,
while guiding the belated man to his
room in the dark, fell between the joice,
sustaining skinned limb and almost
cracked rib. He was able to be about
in few days, however.

MIR. TALBOT NOMINATED
Public Sentiment. Anticipates the
 Work of the Convention.

There seems to be a universal de- mand among republicans for the nom ination of MT. Walter Talbot for mayor. Democrats, of course, are not falling over themselves to urge his nomination, for they appreciate that it means the election Of republican mayor, and they naturally hope to find someone in their ranks that they can recommend for the place.
 still one of the bset known demo- crats in the city said to a Republican reporter yesterday: Being a demo- crat, of course l do not want to be quoted, but Mir. Talbot has always bsen my ideal candidate for mayor of this city. This. of course, is saying nothing disparaging of the others, but he is the man 1 would like to see in that place.
 A number of republicans were spoken to on the subject. It is unnecessary to give names for the reason that Mir Talbot has never been known as a politician and is one man that would command a solid party vote if nom mated, as well as the vote of many
