Charles Moore, who was private sec

Adrian and Ann Arbor were the first
cities in the state to furnish complete
returns. Ferris carried both.

Detroit, Mich, Nov. 9.-Not in many
years has a state campaign been so
holly contested as the one settled by
the voters yesterday. Democrats be-
lieved the issues Of primary reform
and machine politics and the clean
candidate they put forward would once
more give to the state a democratic
governor. AS the returns began cont
ing in it was evident that nothing but
disappointment was in store for them
and that while the normal republican
majority would be reduced the election
Of Warner by a comfortable margin
was inevitable. At republican state
headquarters in Detroit at midnight
the figures were placed at 10000, and
it was admitted it might be more.

Washington. Nov. 9-President
Roosevelt, after the election returns
clearly indicated the result, issued the
following statement:
81 am deeply sensible Of the honor
Gone me by the American people in
thus expressing their confidence n
what have done and have tried to do.
I appreciate to the full the solemn re-
sponsibility this confidence imposes
upon me, and | shall do all that i'll
my power lies not to forfeit it. On the
4th of March next / shall have served
three and a half years, and this three
and half years constitutes my first
term. The wise custom which limits
the president to two terms regards
the substance and not the form, under
no circumstances will be candidate
for or accept another nomination"

DETROIT CITY ELECTION.
Maybury Defeated by Good For the
Mayoralty.

Detroit, Mich, Nov. 9.-The scepter
so long held by w. G. Maybury as may
or of Detroit was wrested from his
grasp yesterday, and George p. Codd is
chosen by the people as their munich
pal ruler.
The election of the republican candi.
date was conceded early in the even
ing, the only difference of opinion. be-
ing in the estimates of his majority.
In 81 precincts the o'clock count
gave Codd 9,317 and Maybury 6,515,
difference in Colds favor of 2,S02. In
these same precincts two years ago
Carstens, the republican candidate for
mayor, received total vote Of 1929
and Maybury 9,901.
Although Codd had a lead of over
$500 in these 81 precincts, it was est.
mated that Maybury would make
slight gains in certain east side demo-
cratic precincts which would in the
end bring Codd's majority to about
$500.
Reports on all of the republican can
didates with the exception of Hot,
mann for sheriff and Renaud for city
treasurer indicate republican land
slide. Renaud was running somewhat
behind Thompson, but was making a
great run at that, everything consid-
cred. Hoffman, was not keeping apace
with his ticket, but his election was
predicted b va safe majority
At the time when the republicans
had figures to show a lead of nearly
$500 for Codd by the o'clock count,
1t was conceded at democratic head
quarters that Coed was about 1000
ahead.

the following vote: Roosevelt 1855.
Parker 9,1S7, Warner 14,565, Ferris

gave Bliss majority Of 1913.
At the same hour seven districts in
Marquette county gave 637 for Warner
and $50 for Ferris. Young for congress
was making runaway race with
Black.
Ferris ran well in Hillsdale city,
which he carried by about 100 Bliss

Twelve out Of 21 precincts in Chip
rewa county give republican state
ticket 1870 majority. Roosevelt will
have 1000 majority. Fl. o. Young, rep,
for congress, will probably get 1900
majority.
Ferris will carry Hastings and Eaton
counties by small majority. The
ballots were badly scratched, many
democrats voting for Roosevelt and
scratching the Parker electors. The
republican senator and representative

Returns indicate that Roosevelt has
carried Cheboygan county by 900 ma
jority, Warner by $50, Loud for con-
gress by $50. The county ticket is all

ROOSEVELT HEARS THE NEWS.
How the PRECEDENT Received Tidincs
of His Reelection.

of His Reelection.
Washington, Nov. 9.-Surrounded by
his devoted family and a company of
intimate personal friends, President
Roosevelt last night received the news
of his overwhelming victory achieved
at the polls of the American people.
The first information Of definite
character was received by the presi-
dent while he was at dinner The re-
turns laid before him then were in the
nature of assurances that he had car
ried New York, his home state, by a
plurality so large as to be really
astounding Bulletins from the news
papers Of New York city were received
conveying the welcome news. While
the president was gratifed, it may be
said that the result was not entirely
unexpected, although he himself had
not anticipated so tremendous a VIC
tory.
These and rapidly succeeding bulle.
tins, each conveying to him more
cheering news, were read and dis.
cussed by the president with surpris-
ing calmness. He was in the best OF
spirits but at no time did he manifest
the slightest nervousness or anxiety.
Assured, as he said, that the campaign
had been conducted on a plane of prin-
ciple and patriotism, as lofty as he
himself would have it, and that every
thing had been done which legitimate
~ could be done to insure the success
of the principle which had been pro-
mulgated by the republican party and
by him, he had awaited with perfect
confidence the verdict of the people.
Shortly after Q o'clock President
Roosevelt received a personal tele.
gram from his democratic opponent.
congratulating him on his election.
In addition to the telegram received
rom Judge Parker the White House
telegraph force was deluged with con.
gratulatory messages for the president

A Republican CONGRESS.

Washington, Nov. 9.-President
Roosevelt is assured of the co-opera-
ton of a republican congress. The
present republican majority in that
cody is thirty-four, and there need be
no surprise /: this figure is almost
doubled, and lit is reasonably certain
to reach a majority of at least fifty.
In practically all districts the republl-
cans have held their own, while in
some significant instances the demo

Returns received up to noon Wed
nesday change some figures of the
earlier reports, but without effectine
results. Roosevelt will probably have
1923 votes in the electoral college to
Parker 1871. Warmers majority will
not fall short of 10000. The figures
given In this issue are revised UP to
noon. In Wayne county every Repub.
Iican candidate was elected and In De.

SubsoiIinu Query.

From the Farmers Review:-Will 1t
do any good to use subsoil pillow on a
subsoil that will hold water? How
deep should the blowing be? What is
the best time of year to do the work ?
The soil is upland and in Oklahoma
Joseph Blodgen, Oklahoma.
The query was submitted to Prof.
John Fields, director OF the Oklahoma
Experiment Station, at Saltwater, Ok,
who replies as follows:
gather from the inquiry that the
soil in question is underlaid with a
tough subsoil through which water
penetrates very poorly. The soil of
the Experiment Station farm is very
similar in character and experiments
with sub-soiling conducted several
years ago showed that the results did
not warrant a continuance of the extra
labor of subsoiling. The better plan
seems to be to plow such land quite
deeply, at least to 8 inches, and give
it thorough cultivation before plant
ing or seeding crop. Such methods OF
preparation result in excellent yields
of wheat if the blowing is done early
but if blowing is delayed until late in
the fall, deep blowing usually results
in smaller yields than shallow plowing.
would not advise subsoiling such
land for ordinary farm crops.
