LAST BALLOT FOR ROOSEVELT

ROCKFORD, Ill, Nov. 14.-Otis Ed
dy, who recently celebrated his one
hundredth birthday, cast his ballot last
Tuesday and expects it will be the last
opportunity he will have for voting for
a presidential candidate. Mr. Eddy
cast his ballot for all the nominees of
the republican party. Mr.. Eddy has
an added distinction to that of being
the oldest master mason in the coun-
try 1t is that of having voted for every
republican candidate for the presi-
dency and also for every whig candi-
date. In 1856, when the republican par
ty was organized, Mr.. Eddy resided in
Rhode Island and cast his ballot for
Fremont and Dayton From then on he
has visited the polls at each presiden-
tial election and cast a straight ticket
for the nominees of the party.

So determined was he that she was

to show cause why he should not be
punished for contempt This he failed
to do, and was fined $40 for his Of

ANNUAL ExHIBI.
TON OPENED IN GOTHAM
TODAY.
Entry List Shows An Increase of More
Than One Hundred Over
Last Year.

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-THE TWEEN
tieth annual exhibition of the National
Horse Show association, the famous
Horse Show" which is looked upon
as the beginning of the winters social
season, opened today in Madison
Square Garden, the immense ampi-
theatre being gorgeous on orange and
black, the colors of the association.
The entry list this year shows an in
crease of more than 100 over last year,
thus establishing new record The
list also marks the infusion of a-lot
of new blood among the exhibitors,
for the newcomers are more than in
any previous year, and all have high
hopes of winning blue ribbons.
From early morning the big ring,
with it's coating of fresh hemlock tan
bark, and the stalls were scenes of
activity. The work in the ring was
watched with interest by quite large
crowd of horse fanciers. though the
main part of the horse show audience
will not be in evidence until evening,
and until Saturday night the show will
be the attraction in this city, not only
for the sporting element and for the
lovers of the horse, but for those to
whom horse show week is marked with
red-letters as one of the most import
ant of the year. The list of box-holders
insures an attendance no whit inferior
to those of former years.
The program this year provides for
many new features, and chief among
them will be the contest for jumpers,
which will test not only the ability Of
the horse, but of the riders. 1t is the
in-and-out jump, in which the horse
must come up to the first gate, jump it,
go over the next, about the width Of
country lane, turn, jump again and
take the side bars into the ring. An
other feature is special prize for
all the old favorites in the pony
classes are shown, and there are some
new Ones of which much is expected.
The greatest increase in numbers is
among the trotters and roadesters,
forty-seven more entries having been
made this year. In the hackney class

REASON FOR DEFEAT.
Chamberlain Says No Democrat Could
Have Won.

SALEM, Or, Nov. 1.-THE lack of
we'll defined issues to raise antagonism
and arouse enthusiasm and the disaf-
lection of Bryan democrats are the
chief reasons for the republican victory,
according to the views of Oregon's
leading democrat, Governor George E.
Chamberlain. The governor does not
believe there is anything to be done by
his party in the way of reorganization
but believes that republican dissatis-
faction with Roosevelt and a union of
the two wings of the democratic party
will place the democracy in fair way
of winning victory in 1908. He expects
Roosevelt to rule as he would like to
rule in the next four year. In discus
sing the election, he said:
There were no well-defined issues
to raise antagonism and arouse en-
thusiasm, and the difference on the
tariff question was not difference in
principle. but difference in degree.
AN element of the democratic par
ty that assisted in the defeat of Bryan
in 1896 and 1900 insisted upon be-
ing permitted to name the candidate of
the party this year, promising if their
man should be nominated he would
carry New York and some of the
other doubtful states. Thereby they
secured the aid of the delegates from
the southern states in the national
convention and nominated their can
didate, with the result that many thou
sands of Bryan men stayed at home
and as many more voted for Roosevelt.
Il think the vote in Oregon shows
that many democrats who were loyal
to the party during the two preceding
elections voted for Roosevelt yester-
day.
Another thing that entered into the
result was the strong personality of
Roosevelt and the belief by the peo-
pie that he is typical American.
Il believe that if a pronounced Bry-
an man. or if Bryan himself had been
nominated this time, he would have
met with defeat at the hands Of the
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1904-11-14

same men who defeated Bryan four
and eight years ago.
MY opinion is that many leaders of
his party will be disappointed at the
course of Roosevelt during the next
four years am inclined to believe that
the true Roosevelt will assert himself
iconoclast. My opinion in this respect is
strengthened by his declaration that
under no circumstances will he be a
candidate for reelection"
When asked as to his views of pos
sibel reorganization of the democratic
party, Governor Chamberlain said:
so far as reorganization is con-
cerned 1 do not see that anything of the
kind will be necessary. 1 believe that
the party will be stronger for it's de-
feat this time. The members Of the
two wings of the party have learned
that the party cannot succeed unless
they unite on a platform and candi-
date. I believe they will get together.
Il do not think any candidate could
have been nominated this year. on any
kind of platform, that could defeat
Roosevelt. The people were enjoying
good times and were reasonably pros
porous, and under such conditions it
is very difficult to dislodge a party in
power.
Il think that in the next four years
the two wings of the democratic party
will get together on basis satisfactory
to both, and that this union will be
aided by disintegration in the republi-
can party. Roosevelt strongly believed
in revision of the tariff and in prose-
cutiOn of the trusts, but his hands were
tied by the party managers. He is now
free, and he will carry out the work
he wanted to carry out in the last year
or two. In so doing he will displease
large number of republicans"

SUSPECT IN GERHARD MURDER
CASE KNOWN TO HAVE LEFT
NEW UlM.
R.I;.ved to Have Been In Fairfax Re-
eently-officers Are Looking
for the Man.

NEW ULM, Mimi, Nov. 14.-Corrob-
orative evidence that DR.. L. A. Geb-
hard was murdered by the cocaine
..fiend," who spent several hours IN Dr.
George r. Koch's office few days be-
fore the murder, came to light this
morning, when L. Nichols, a miller at
Fairfax, Mimi, telephoned the New
UIm authorities that such a man ap-
peared at Fairfax the day after the
tragedy While in saloon there, ne
discussed the murder with man. who
came into his place and made several
remarks open to suspicion.
s"The man and his companion came
to Fairfax on bicycles" said Mr.. Mich
OILS. Zone of them said he was dem
fist. They went into saloon and Or
dered a glass of beer and sat down at
a table They picked up a daily paper
in which they read an account Of Geb-
hard's murder. They talked in an un-
dertone, and finally one of them said:
You know the murderer was caught
at LIE Sueur' Shortly afterwards they
left the place and rode out of town.
From the description given of the
man who said he was a dentist, the
officers are certain that he is the dope
"fiend" who visited several Of the Of
fees and spent some time in DR.. KOch's
Office at New Ulm and who has been
under suspicion as the slayer of DR..
Gerhard.
The detectives attach Importance to
Nichols story inasmuch as it proves
that the man was still in the vicinity
when the murder was committed and
that he left Immediately afterwards.
OF course, they have not yet discovered
a motive for the murder, but that may
be reached when they are able to es-
tablish the identity of the man.
The presence of the two men at Fair
corroborate the story of Mr.. Neuman,
who said that when he was passing
the foot of the stairs leading to Geb
hards office a few minutes before the
murder, he saw two men standing there
and Kellar denies having been seen
hear anything, come up" He supposed
that one of the men was Albert Kel
lar, a drug clerk, and addressed him
by that name. He received no reply
and eKllar denies having been seen
there.
1t is now thought that the man VINO
went upstairs was the ''fiend' himself
That the murder was premeditated
is evident from the fact that the ham,
mer with which the dentist was killed
did not belong in his kit of tools. That
was established yesterday conclusively,
when Miss Lydia Schapekahm, the
caretaker of DR.. Gebhard's office, saw
the hammer and stated positively that
it did not belong to the dead man.
% The hammer is a cheap affair, with
homemade handle, about eight
inches long and very rough. One claw
is broken from the hammer, while it
has a straight head. 1t is not the kind
of a hammer that would likely be in
a dentists kit of tools, but more like
ly a cheap tool which the murderer
picked up somewhere
Knife Also Belonged to Murderer.
The knife with which the assassin
stabbed and mutilated DR.. Gebhard's
body, and which he carried away. was
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1904-11-14

also the property of the murderer. Miss
Schapekahm has taken a careful in
ventory of DIR. Gebhard's tools and she
finds that all of his knives are still in
his office. These developments are
taken to indicate that the murderer
went there with the express purpose
of killing the dentist.
