United States and Cuba, for the United States has
been our great benefactor. l look forward to an
era of prosperity. good order ard peace among the
people of Cuba themselves and with other coun-
tries.

Defeated Democrat Is Trying to
Oust the Successful Man.
Kansas City, Dec. 13.-Judge Bur-
CESS of the Supreme Court of Missouri
yesterday, on the motion of Attorney
General Crow. issued a writ of custer
Of Judge Burkhead of Douglass coun-
ty to compel him to show cause why
he is entitled to hold the office of cir
cult judge of the Twenty-first dis
trict.
The Supreme Court will be asked to
determine whether it is a violation Of
the corrupt practice statute to secure a
nomination by a game of cards, in
which tffe judgeship nomination and
81, 375 were the stakes.
Burkhead, Republican, defeated
George w. Thornberry. Democrat.
Thornberry contested the election. al
ieging that Burkhead and Ernest Bron-
son were Republican candidates for
the judgeship; that the men agreed to
play a game of cards to see who
should have the nomination, and
against the nomination the sum of ST.,
375 was put up. Bronson won, but 1t
is alleged that he, being unable to car
~ the convention. threw his vote to
Burkhead in consideration of the flnan-
Cial stake.
The defeated Democrat seeks TO prove
that Burkhead spent more money than
he stated in his return, as filed.
