ROOSEVELT carried Wisconsin yes
terday by tremendous majority, and
the Republican state and county tick
cts we're swept into Office on the wave
of Republican ballots that followed
the president. The foreign element
in this city and throughout the state
voted the straight Republican ticket
this year, and this fact undoubtedly
saved the governor from defeat as he
lost heavily wherever the tickets
were split. The returns also indi-
cate that the governor received fully
as many Democratic votes this year
as he did two years ago, and the heavy
vote po11ed by the Social Democrats
also materially affected the result in
the state. 1t looks now as if the
whole Republican ticket had pulled
through, although some of the candi-
dates were little nearer the rocks of
defeat than was quite pleasant.

true. The story is that General Keller,

Of bis command into soldierly conduct
donned a conspicuous white uniform
on going into bis last battle and was
an easy target for the enemy. On nu-
merous occasions during the civil war
officers arrayed themselves in conspic-
uous uniforms to encourage and ami
mate their followers. An act Of the
kind may be free from bravado and
signify that desperate situations call
for desperate daring.

CONGRESS BACKS ROOSEVELT
Possibility That the Majority in the House
May Be Nearly Seventy.

Chicago, Nov. 9.-Dispatches to the
Associated Press up to 2:15 a. m. show
that the Republicans have elected 2OS
representatives and the Democrats 135.
Forty three districts are still missing,
most of them now represented by Re
publicans.
Washington, Nov. 8. - President
Roosevelt is assured of the cooperation
OF Republican congress. The re-
cent Republican majority in that body
is thirty -four, and there need be no
surprise if this figure is almost doubled.
and it is reasonably certain to reach
majority Of at least fifty. In prac-
tically all districts the Republicans
nave held their own, while in some
significant instances the Democrats
have lost.
Probably the most marked of these
cases are the Fourth and Fifth dis
tricts of California (San Francisco,
now represented by Representatives
Ltvernash and Wynn, Democrats,
which reports indicate have been
gained by the Republicans. In the
Twelfth Ohio district Tayler Rep.), is
reported to have defeated Badger, the
sitting Democratic member who was
candidate for reelection
The most surprising of all the re-
ports, however, come from the Fifth
and Fifteenth Missouri districts, both
strongly Democratic and the former
represented by Cowherd, chairman of
the Democratic congressional cam
paign committee. The Republicans
claim to have carried both districts.
In the light of these reports a Repub-
lican majority of fifty in the house
is considered conservative estimate.
The states of Alabama, Arkansas,
Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, North
Carolina, South Carolina and Texas,
all send solid Democratic delegations
to congress, while those from Ken
lucky and Virginia probably each will
send only one Republican representa-
tive, making no change from the pres
emit complexion. Tennessee will con-
tinue to send two Republican repre-.
sentativeS. There are several solid Re-
publican delegations reported from
northern states, including Iowa with
one possible exception, Kansas, Mins
nesota, New Hampshire and the two
Dakotas.
Other states such as Michigan, Till
nois, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and even
Indiana and New Jersey-from which
the Democrats hoped for much in the
way of gains, send to congress delega-
lions which are preponderatintyly Re-

WOMAN IN POLITICS.
Mrs. Eva Tetard Wheeler, For
merIy of kenOsha, is
Running for Office
is NOW LIVING In COLORADO

kenosha women have gained re-
nown IN many fields but it remains for
Mrs. Eva Tetard Wheeler, a daugh-
ter Of the late John Tetard a former
sheriff of the county, to be the first
woman from this county to take a de-
cided place in politics. Mrs. Wheeler
is now an active candidate for the Of
fee of county superintendent of the
schools of Gunnison county. Colorado
What is more to the point the papers
from the county state that Mrs. Wheel
er will be elected by large ma jority
of the votes in the county.
Mrs. Wheeler is a woman of pleas
ing address, thoroughly educated,
and of mature Judgment. She is en-
dowed with an enthusiasm for her
work which will make her a most eff
ficient official.
Mrs. Wheeler was born and spent
her early childhood in Kenosha coun-
ty and was well known to many of
the younger people of the city. She
went with her parents to Colorado in
1884 and attended the schools at
Crested Butte. After that she re-
turned to Wisconsin for number of
years and was student at st. C1ara's
academy at Sinsinawa Mound. After
completing her course she returned
to Colorado and there was married to
N. c. Wheeler of Bristol, N. Y. Mr..
Wheeler died in 1902 and since that
time the widow has been engaged as
a teacher in the schools of Colorado.
In this way she has made herself and
her three little children independent.
During the preconvention campaign
in the county several Republicans of
the sterner sex appeared as candi-
dates for the nomination but Mrs.
Wheeler was an easy victor at the
convention.
The Kenosha friends of Mrs.
Wheeler will be delighted to see her
successful in the campaign she is
making.
