Win-Montana Has Exciting Time.
Cincinnati, April S.-While the re-
publicans made material gains in the
municipal elections, they did not Sc
cure many changes in the administra-
ton of the cities. The most notable
exception was at Columbus, where
Mayor Hinkle tdemocrat) is succeed
ed by Robert H. Jeney (republican)
with plurality of 1900. The mayors
of all the leading cities, except Colum-
bus, were elected. The republicans
claim control of Cincinnati and the
democrats Of Cleveland. and Samuel M.
Jones was elected as an independent
for the fourth time as mayor of Toledo.
The democrats reelected their tickets
at Dayton, Sandusky, Chillicothe,
Hamilton and other cities normally
democratic, and the republicans at
Steubenville, Youngstown, Warren.
Ironton, Portsmouth and other towns
that they have heretofore controlled.
The fusion tickets as rule, were de-
feated in dozen or more cities where
they were in the field. One Of the most
notable gains of the republicans was
at Mansfield, and of the democrats at
Springfield, where local issues con-
trolled results, as was the case in most
Of the changes.
Future Results.
There is much diversity of opinion
as to the effect of these municipal
elections upon the next republican
nomination of governor, but it
is conceded that Tom. L. John
son of Cleveland will now become
formidable candidate for the demo-
cratic nomination for governor few
months hence and that the ingalls, or
ganization will be continued with a
view to making Mr.. ingalls, the demo-
cratic opponent of Hanna for senator
The elections were the first under
the new Ohio municipal code. which
reorganizes all cities with a different
system Of officers, and none are held
over from previous elections.

Opening of Proposals.

Major c. c. Walcutt, constructing
quartermaster at Whipple opened bids
his afternoon for the grading of a
1900 foot railroad spur, and laying
the track into the site of the govern
ment warehouses now under construc-
ton there and for changing a portion
of the water course, which runs on the
north side of the barracks. Three
bids we're presented as follows: y.
c. Webster, W. II. Cook, and E'iiield
and Gallagher. For the entire work
Mr.. Webster was low man and will in
al probability be awarded the con
ract. The spur will leave the track
of the S. f. P. Il P. railroad at the
south end of the bridge just north of
the post and will run in southeaster-
ly direction to the warehouses. 1t
will not only prove a great conven-
fence during the period of construc-
ton now in progress there in getting
and supplies in, but will also
be advantageous after the rehabilita-
ton of the post to get the supplies to
the ware house.

Bishop Eden, of Wakefield, Eng
land, created a sensation in church
circles recently by attacking the ae-
cepted belief in the inspiration of the
Bible. In a speech at Leeds the bis
hop said Biblical inspiration was not
verbal or absolutely accurate and
infallible. 1t was not an inspiration
of pens but of men who stamped their
own characters upon their writings.
Even educated people would find it a
great relief to be told such elementary
truths as that the Bible was not in
fallible. The Bible was not necessarily
literally exact. 1t was not scien-
tific text book. The books were not
necessarily written by authors whose
names they bore. These names had
absolutely no authority except the old
traditions of the Jewish race. Old
chronology, the bishop declared, was
not inspired. The world was not
created 1904 years before Christ. Once
people realized these facts and under
stood the great purpose of inspiration
they would lose the paralyzing fear of
answering truthfully the direct ques-
tions of children, he argued.
