BEHIND HIS COLLEAGUES
"stalwarts" Could Not Resist a Chance to
= Scratch La Toilette. 5&'f -

Scratch La Toilette. 49, 49,
MILWAUKEE, wls.,-Ofi1cial returns
from .fifty-five counties in the state show
that Governor Ia Toilette ran far behind
all Of the other candidates on his ticket.
Apparently there was a "stalwart" cut OF
at least 10000 votes on the head of the
ticket, If not more. and it Is also be-
lieved that the plurality Of the governor
will fall short at least 10000 of the highest
figure heretofore claimed for him.
The official returns of the vote for state
officers as sent to republican headquarters
show the following net pluralities for re-
publican candidates: Governor La Toilette.
1854; Lieutenant Governor Davidson,
43,401; Secretary of State Houser 43,416;
Treasurer Kempf. 43,012; Attorney Cen
eral Sturdevant, 43,0SS; Railroad Commits
sioner Thomas, 1850; Superintendent
Cary, 1890; Insurance Commissioner
Host 1874.
T. When the returns are in from Dane,
Ashland, Brown, Dodge, Door, Douglas,
Fond du Lac. ,Langlade, Marinette, Villas
and WinnebagO there will be a change
but it is believed it will still be shown
that the governor ran several thousand
behind the highest man on the ticket. II
the seventeen counties remaining to be
heard from show the same situa ton
which Is possible, it means that the gov.
ernor ran behind by from 10000 to II ,00t
votes. He was probably cut a total OF
10000, and this was due to the opposition
| of the "stalwarts"

NO PRECEDENT TO GO BY
Point Of Law Raised In Destruction o
Belle PLANES Joints

6eIle PIalne'S JOINTS.
MARsHALLTOWN, IOWA-By the de-
struction of two liquor joints at Belle
Plaine, Sheriff w. c. You'll of Benton
Is believed never to have been ruled on
In this state. Resorts were conducted by
Julius Krabenhoft and Joe ]. Jocobi at
Belle Plane In open violation Of law, it
is alleged. Recently the proprietors were
indicted for keeping nuisance and each
was convicted and fined $500 and costs. -
On Tuesday Sheriff You'll destroyed
every drop of liquor he could find and
seized the furniture preparatory to it's
disposal at public sale. Tom c.. Miner,
attorney for Krabenhoft and jacob. OBJ
jected to the sheriff's procedure, assert
ing he had appealed to the supreme court
from the judgment Of the district court
and that, therefore, all proceedings under
the Judgment Of the district court were
styed. County Attorney Kirkland in
sited that the sheriff had acted within
the law. The question then naturally
arose: us an appeal a stay of execution
Of an order Of abatement Of a nuisance?'
| AS a matter of form, Judge Caswel
granted an injunction restraining the
sheriff from disposing of the furniture
in question, but as the law requires foul
weeks advertising, it will be seen thai
the judges order amounts to nothing, in
asmuch as his decision will be given be
lore the TOUR weeks nave passed. The
fixtures Of the two resorts raided at Belle
PLANE are estimated at about $4,000 II
value, regardless of the liquor destroyed
The saloonmen's idea was to get the fix
lures in position and continue business
until the supreme court could rule on tn
|appeal, but the state held the appeal dit
not in any manner affect the execution
of the order of abatement. Aside from
the question Of law raised, the affair rha
created great deal Of excitement at Bell
Plaine, the raid being the result of deter
mined action on the part of many citizens

CONGRESS OF MICROBES.
Room in q London Scientific Institu-
tion Contains Enough Bacilli
to XIII Everybody.

Carelly guarded and tended in one
room in London there are enough mi
erobes to kill every man, woman and
child in the world. The room is in
the Institute of Preventive Medicine
building, situated in one of the most
densely populated districts of the big
city.
The microbes are there in thou
sands, millions, and even billions, and
they are just yearning to be at their
fell work upon human beings. They
represent almost every known disease
and are classified and kept in bottles,
fed and developed, and surrounded by
an atmosphere best suited to them,
and they are nursed with as much
care and tenderness as is given to the
fairest and rarest of flowers.
The microbe esta blishment is main
tanned for the purpose of enabling
medical men to become familiar with
these mighty atoms" of destruction.
Here they have every opportunity to
make a close study of the precise
character, appearance and disposition
of the different bacilli; to discover, in
fact. everything. that can be discov-
cred with a view to the prevention
and cure of diseases that. are caused
by microbes. And one can easily con-
:eive what a fascinating study bacilli
afford. -
An uniformed stranger might
walk through the incubator room of
the institute without dreaming for
q moment that he was in hot bed
of disease. He would more probably
imagine that he was in a novel kind
of bakery, where small bottles of va
riously colored fluids were stored to
De in an even temperature, for around
the room are arranged numerous
ovenlike incubators, with glass doors.
through which one can perceive the
long glass tubes containing the
bacilli, whose way of egress from
the tubes is barred by nothing more
impenetrable than small wads of cot
ton. There, quietly, almost invisibly,
reposes a power great enough to
sweep the earth of human life.
And the bacilli demand the greatest
attent ton, the most delicate feeding.
Almost every different kind of mi
crobe has particular likes and dis
likes, which have to be carefully
studied. One kind of bacilli likes to
dine off horses blood, another off
broth, while third will touch moth
SO on right through the list of dis
eases represented, though, luckily for
the catering department of the estab
hshment, few agree in having vry
similar tastes.-Chicago American.
