TIL h Result

Everything indicates at this time that
the national Republican ticket has re-
ceived splendid majorit'e s all over the
country wherever the party had a fight
ing chance. In almost every Republican
state the president has received a larger
majority than was given Mckinley four
years ago. showing that the people en-
dorse Roosevelt and his pol.cy of prog
ress.
From all indications Nevada has come
back into the Republican fold, elect.ng
Yerington to congress and enough Re-
publican legislators to send Geo. S. Nixon
to the United States senate. There is a
possibility that later returns may change
the aspect, however the vote is expected
to be very close in any event.
Humboldt county returns are coming In
slowly, but so far as received the indica-
tons point to the election of the straight
Republican ticket, with possibly one or
two exceptions.
Taken all in all 1t is a glorious victory
for the cause of Republican.sm and the
policy of progress and prosperity inaugu-
rated and sustained by the Republican
party.

1t is extremely probable that the dem

but the fact must be apparent to every
one that constipation is caused by a lack
ii water in the system. and the use of
drastic cathartics like the old-fashiohe.

Chamberiain's Stomach and Liver Ta3-

their effect, and when the proper dose Is
taken their action is so natural that orc
can hardly realize 1t is the effect of t.
medicine. Try a IS cent bottle of them.

Warden E. J. Murphy, 1--WE expect to
spring bigger surprises on our oppo-
nents in the next two weeks than any
they have yet had" The govern
or's plans are to spend tomorrow,
Wednesday, and Thursday of this week

ney General Hamlin have also arrang-
ed to go there. that will be the main
battlefield. The primaries, under the

GAME OF STRANGERS WAS
FINALLY SEEN THROUGH

1t has just come to light that two
young men giving their names as
Charles Wilde and Frank S. Ford, and
their home Burlington, Iowa, recently
worked the Rock Island road for 500
on a fake damage case and were
working on schemes against the Tri-
City Railway company and the Moline
Pillow company when something arous-
ed their suspicious that they were I'M
der watch and they disappeared. They
claimed to be travelling men and were
registered at the Hotel Harms while
executing their plans. Ford obtained
500 from the Rock Island road on the
representation that he was struck by
hot cinder thrown from an engine
while walking near the tracks in Day
export.
1t was on an attempt by Wilde to
secure money from the street rail
way company that the pair reached
the end of their game. Wilde repre-
