Candidates Complete Work of Filing
Expense Accounts with the
Register of Deeds.
JUSTICE STEWART LEADssTHE LIST
Defeated Candidates Spent More Money
than those who were Elected-social
Democrats Spend Little.

Today was the last day allowed by
law for the candidates at the recenl
state and County elections to file their
statements of expenses with the
County Clerk, and nearly all the can
didates in the county made good, and
the Clerk has mass of rarely inter
esting reading matter. The expenses
as shown by the accounts were small
and in most cases the defeated candi-
dates paid more for defeat than the
successful ones paid for election.
The largest account filed up to noon
today was the account Of Calvit,
Stewart, who in his race for districi
attorney, expended $3.50. The smallest
account filed is that of C. A. Dewey,
who ran for the office of member Of
the Assembly. This account shows
that Mr.. Dewey expended a dollar
only.
Many Of the accounts are interesting
and the humorists among the candi-
dates had a chance to give the people a
sample of their work. DR.. Paul Malm-
strom, who ran for the office Of cpro-
ner, was one of the humorists and his
account which covers large sheet, is
z rarity.
In the account every expense is set
down, and not only that but the way
in which the money was expended. In
of many well known citizens, for
whom the Doctor swears that he
bought beer and cigars la order to Sc
cure their influence on election day. II
also shows that tie brand of cigars
used by TIE Doctor during his cam
paign was even below the election
brand as the account shows that these
cigars cost the Doctor only two and a
half cents apiece.
John B. Maloney gets philosophical
in his report of expenses. and in con-
nection with the statement that he ex
pended $25 with various saloon keepers
and landlords, the genial circuit clerk
adds; ITO conform with a foolish GUS
tom INDUCED IN by my fellow poll
ticians and expected by certain men
with whom / come in contact"
The report of G. A. Tarbeil, treas
urer of the Republican county COM
mittee, shows that the committee
raised $3.50, and of this amount there
is balance of $62O3. This will not
remain in the treasury as the COM
mittee has some debts and it will be
divided pro rata among the creditors.
The expenses of the Social Demo-
cratic committee were very low, and
the secretary, w. E. Swartout, files an
account showing that the campaign
expenses of his party were but $1O.50.
Evidently the Social Democrats got
their moneys worth. The full list of
evnanSes ca far fled a re aS follows.

utmost importance and could on no ac-
count suffer delay.
1t was pitchy dark the rain was de-
Scending in torrents and the wind was

denly he heard the toot of a LOCOMOTIVES

flashed into his mind Only a little dis
lance away stood a locomotive and he
at once climbed into the cab, seized th,s
whistle cord and began to Jerk il in .
manner which sent out a series of weird
toots which mystified the engineer and
heard any such signals, and half feared
that their colonel had become dis
tracted.
Again and again he repeated the series
OF wild toots, sounding the whistle to its
full capacity
Finally his sharp ear caught from the
other bank OF the river an answering
whistle The operator at headquarte-s
had heard the whistle footing his tele-
graph call. and realized tina. locDmotive
whistles instead of telegraph KEYS and
saunders must be called into service in
the transmission of an important message.
This result was ACCOMPLISHED and se-i
