the part of these egotistic agents of
political corruption that the governor
will lend himself to any disreputable
scheme that they may suggest. Gov
ernor HUM is an honorable man, and
enjoys high reputation. To intimate
that he would aid in the execution of a
vile partisan scheme, for the selection
of a lot of corrupt and purchasable
Democrats. to act as Voters Assistants
at the behest of corrupt gang of pol
iticians who think only of ''their own
selves and their own pockets all the
time" is an insult to his integrity and
intelligence, and reflection upon the
pleasing estimation in which he is held
by his fellow citizens.
1t is just like this gang of offensive
politicians and satellites who represent
the controlling sentiment of the Union
Republican organization to impudently
assume, that the Governor is a puppet,
not man, and that he will humbly
obey their bidding, no matter what
contemplate partisan work they may
ask him to do. He is a gentleman,
and law abiding citizen, and when
the law says that he shall select ''hon-
est and capable" men for certain pub
lie places, he may be expected to do so.
Low down tricks, and underhand deal
ing, are as foreign to the character OF
John Hum, as at present understood
by the people of Delaware, as they are
congenial to those who profess to ex-
pect them of him.

Made a Very Profitable Business ia Lower
Kent and Sussex Counties.

The holly season has now opened in
Lower Kent and Sussex counties and
has developed into a large business.
The price paid per box is $1.75, and a
single man is able to get from six to
eight boxes alone day, netting him
from $1O.5O to $l4 per day, which has
caused almost every available man to
seek for it,
The price paid last year was $1.25
per box, but owing to its scarcity, the
price has advanced. The boxes are
four feet long, two feet high and two
feet across the ends Many of the
farmers daughters are making wreaths
from which they get from 6 to 8 cents
apiece. A good workman can make

HARVARD won the intercollegiate
football championship on Soldiers
Field, Saturday afternoon, by conquer
ing Yale, % to O. The result was so
unexpected that the New Haven men,
are wondering how it all happended.
Harvard made three tOuchdowns, from
which two goals were kicked, and a
magnificent goal from the 40-yard line,
was kicked by Quarter Back Marshall.
Harvard played beautiful football all
the way. The attack and defence was
so strong that the Yale Varsity, the
same team that vanvuished Princeton,
at New Haven by score of IL to 0, the
saturday previous, was made to look
like a scrub eleven at times. Harvard
had the weight with which to put
power into her attack, and also showed
remarkable speed and endurance.
Though the hardest kind of football
was played, not a Harvard man was
compelled to leave the field, whereas
Eve substitutes were in the Yale line
I'D at the finish. Never before at an
intercollegiate contest of this kind, haa
there been so large a crowd. About
$1,000 persons, had seats around the
four sides of the gridiron, and the
demonstration made by them will never
be forgotten. Every Harvard sup
porter carried crimson flag, so tina
when the first touchdown was made, i
was estimated that %, 900 Harvard ban
ners we're waving ON high.

PRESIDENT Roosevelt has announced
the selection of Clayton McMichael,

Emory Smith says of the appointment:
''The appointment is entirely salts

Michael for great many years, and L
consider him man of great ability.
In selecting Mr.. McMichael, the Pres
ident is simply carrying OFT his policy
persued in other States, notably in
Delaware, by allowing the Congress
ional delegation, to suggest the Fed
ersl appointees. If they are satisfact-
orp tc the President, he appoints
them. Mr.. McMichael will not enter
upon the discharge of his new duties,

Leaders of Both Republican and Fu-
sion Parties Claim Victory.
Philadelphia, Nov. 4.-The leaders of
both Republican and Fusion parties
tonight reiterate their claim that their
respective candidates will carry the
state.
Chairman Reeder of the Republican
party said tonight that late advices
received from Western and Northwest
ern counties lead him to raise his for
mer estimate. He now says Harris
and Potter, the Republican candidates
respectively for state treasurer and
Supreme Court justice, will have near
er 10000 than 100000 majority.
Chairman Greasy of the Democratic
State Committee declined to give fig
ures, but confidently predicted the cleo
tion of Coray and Yerkes, the fusion
candidates for state treasurer and
justice of the Supreme Court
Chairman Miles of the Philadelphia
Republican City Committee claims a
majority of over 1000 for the regular
Republican state ticket and the same
figure for Weaver, regular Republican
candidate for district attorney
The Municipal League are predicting
the election of Rothermel, the fusion
candidate for district attorney, by
from 10000 to 10000 over Weaver, and
also predicts a majority in the city for
the state fusion ticket.

ticket The Democrats say that their
city ticket is safe and that they will
WIN their legislative ticket in two dis
tricts.
In the counties the outcome is also
exceedingly doubtful. The Democrats
unquestionably believe that they will
carry several of the counties heretofore
considered hopelessly Republican, and
this belief is largely based upon the ex-
pectation that the new arrangement
OF the ballot will disfranchise the
greater part of the illiterate negro
voters.
Republican leaders from the counties
claim that they have succeeded in
drilling, their vote, and that their loss
will be very small; nobody has as yet
been able to forecast the exact effect
of the new ballot law. and each side
claims that the other will suffer heav-
lest through it's operation. Both sides
appeared to be equally as confident,
and only the counting of the vote can
decide between the rival claimants.
The counting of the ballots this year
will be much more difficult than for
merly and it is doubtful whether the
complete returns will be known until
Wednesday afternoon.

So dense was it that a walk into the

avenues of traffic resembled the steam

Around Trafalgar Square and the
Houses of Parliament scenes unparal-
leled for years were witnessed. Hun
dreds of omnibuses, cabs, carts and
wagons formed an ineXtricable and i'm
movable mass. The mounted police, in
trying to clear away the jam, got lost
themselves. Many vehicles were in
collision. The drivers, not knowing
where they were, stood at the heads of
their horses patiently awaiting the lift

ANOTHER BURNING.
This Time in Mississippi and After
Victim Confesses to Horrible Crime.

Victim COntesseS To HOrrible crime.
Gulfport, Miss, Nov. A negro
whose name has not yet been ascer-
tanned, was burned at the stake in
Perry county, Mississippi, Saturday
night. The crime for which the negro
was burned was committed early Sat
urday morning.
Mrs. Fortenberry, the wife of a
prominent country gentleman. was the
victim. She was attacked, beaten into
unconsciousness and criminally as
saulted by the negro. After recovering
consciousness, while yet almost too
weak to move, she began crying for
help.
Within short time assistance reach
ed her, and she told the story of the
crime. The negro was described and a
posse organized and a search begun
for the criminal
A negro answering the description
given by Mrs. Fortenberry, was caught
and carried back to the home and there
identified by Mrs. Fortenberry herself.
She stated positively that he was the
brute who had committed the crime.
The nerve of the negro then gave
away and he made a confession of his
crime, telling all the details he had
previously denied.
An informal court was organized by
the members of the posse, and the trial
resulted in a decision to burn the ne
gro. He was carried from the house
to the scene of his crime of the morn
ing and there burned at the stake.

STATE OFFICERS AND MEMBERS
OF THE LEGISLATURE
ARE TO Be ELECTED TO-DAY.

The BETTING ON the Result Seems to
Hinge Upon the Size of the Repub-
lican Plurality, with Various
Odds Given at That-Cuyahoga,
Franklin and Other Counties
Doubtful Congressman Dick
Probable Candidate for Governor
ship Two Years Hence.
Columbus, Nov. 4.-State officers and
members of the Legislature will be
elected in Ohio tomorrow. There is
perhaps greater interst in the result
of the legislative contests than in the
gubernatorial election, from the fact
that the Legislature to be chosen to-
morrow will elect successor to United
States Senator Joseph F. Foraker.
Advices from differnt parts of the
state Tonight indicate great interest in
doubtful counties for members of the
members, all members of both branches
being chosen every two years. During
the campaign Senator Foraker, who is
a candidate for reelection, and SEN
ator Hanna, have appeared repeatedly
OH the same platform and co-operated
with Chairman Dick for both the state
and legislative tickets. 1t is reported
that Congressman Dick, who has been
chairman Nof the state committee for
many years, is likely to be the Repub-
lican candidate for Governor two years
hence.
The vote tomorrow will be compar-
ed with that for Governor two years
ago, when 100000 votes We're cast. Gov.
Nash. Republican. then had a plurality
of $4,000 over John r. Mclean, Demo-
crat. Two years ago 100000 votes were
cast for Mayor Samuel L. Jones of
Toledo. bipartisan candidate, and
$4,000 votes for other minor candidates.
The Jones vote of 1899 will materially
affect the comparisons, especially in
Cleveland and Toledo, as Jones then
carried both Cuyahoga and Lucas
counties. In 1899 there We're 3,109 pre-
cincts in the state. This year there are
3 ,234 precincts. Both sides tonight re-
peat their previous claims. The betting
is at various odds on the Republicans,
and mostly on the size of the plurality
The most spirited betting is on the leg
islative results in Cuyahoga, Franklin
and other doubtful. counties. Gold
weather continues throughout the
state.

Republicans Likely to Challenge

Louisville, Nov. At appears to-
night that the special feature of the
election in Louisville tomorrow, when
z Mayor and full city and county and
legislative tickets will be voted for,
will be the attempt of the Republicans
to challenge Democratic voters whom
they suspect of being illegally register
ed. The managers will have men at
the polls in each precinct with list
of names of persons whom the Repub-
licans allege are Illegally registered.
They declare they will challenge the
vote of any person on the list who Of
fers to vote. The Republican managers
sent circular letters through the mails
to the persons in question, and claim.
large number were returned by the let
ter carriers with the Endorsement that
the person to whom the letter was ad-
dressed was not to be found at the ad
dress given; and as this address was
the address from which the person in
question had registered, the Republi
cans regard the non-delivery of letters
as presumption of illegal registration.
They threaten that if such persons Of
fer to vote they will be arrested.
The Democrats deny all charges of
illegal registration and charge the Re-
publicans with attempted intimidation.
They deny that any of the voters on
the Republican managers lists can be
arrested for offering to vote and say
any challenged voter can by affidavit
establish his right to vote.
The weather promises to be clear and
cool.
Chairman c. c. McChord of the Dem
ocratic State Campaign Committee to-
night gave out a statement in which
he claims the Democrats will have %
or 23 out of the 35 members of the

Republicans VIII Sweep Massachu-
setts, Except in Boston.

Boston, Nov. 4.-No eve of an cleo
ton ever saw Boston quieter than to-
night. In the hotels, clubs and politi-
cal headquarters the talk was not of
the state ticket but of the size of the
Democratic majority in Boston, and its
bearing on the mayoralty fight next
month. In the absence of issues it was
expected that one third of the voters
will stay at home tomorrow, and that
Gov. w. NJ. Crane, the Republican can
didate, will be reelected by about $4,000
majority over Hon. Josiah Quincy, the
Democratic candidate There seems lit
tie prospect of any noteworthy change
in the complexion of the Legislature.
1t seems generally agreed that if Mr..
Quincy obtains a lead over the Repub-
Hcan for governor of 5000 in Boston,
the chances of the Democrats electing
a mayor will be very good. Anything
below 5000 will give the city Republi-
cans more hope.
