From Asthma, and This Was Pri-
mary Cause Of Ills Death.

Toledo O., July 13.-Samuel NJ.
Jones, the Golden Rule Mayor" died
at his home Tuesday evening at 5:O7
O'Clock, as the result of a complica-
tion Of diseases. The immediate cause
of his death was an abscess on his
lungs When this abscess broke, the
mayor was not strong enough to throw
OFF the poison from his system, and
death resulted. The mayor had suf-
fered for years from asthma, and this
was the primary cause Of his fatal i'll
ness
The death of Mayor Jones has caused
the greatest sorrow over the city. Al
though everybody did not believe in his
siological ideas, everybody loved him.
His great stronghold with the people
Of Toledo was his honesty. The mayor
was taken i'll two weeks ago last Sat
urday, and for the last 4S hours pre-
viCus 10 his death was in COmatose
condition. He did not regain conscious
ness during that time. All the mem
hers of his family were at his bedside
al the tiua Of his death. He left a wild
ow and three sons, Percy, Paul and
Mason Jones. He will be succeeded as
mayor by Robert Finch, president Of
the city council.

American as Golden Role" Jones, was
born in Wales in 1916. His parents
came to America and settled in New

few months. In 1864 he went to the
oil fields of Pennsylvania. where he
worked as On engineer.
Ir 1892 ne married Miss Helen l..
Beach, of Toledo, and moved to that
city Two years later he started fac
tory for ne manufacture of oil pump
ing apparatus, which is now known as
the Golden Rule factory Here he
gradually instituted a number of inno-
vations setting up the golden rule as
the only regulation Of :he shop.
In the spring of 1897 came his first
introduction to political life. The re-
publican party was split into three
factions, each with a candidate for
mayor. As the convention saw the
necessity Of uniting to prevent the
third from winning out, and Mr. Jones
was selected rs the man on whom both
could uuite,who would be strong enough
with the church people and popular
with the worEingmen After a struggle
in the convention. Mr.. Jones secured
the nomination, and in the election tha,
followed, va c'ected by a small plu-
rality.
In 1899 Mayor Jones was named for
governor by petition as a non-partisan,
AMI poled more rhan 100, 900 votes, car
rying the cities Of Toledo and Cleye-
land by large pluralit'es,

Republicans Will Have a Great

LANDSLIDE IN MANY STATES
FIGURES MAY BE CHANGED By

Washington. Nov. S.-President

ton of a Republican congress. The
present Republican majority in that
body is thirty-four and there need be
no surprise if that figure is almost
doubled. and it is reasonably certain
to reach majority Of at least fifty
In practically all districts the Repub
licans have held their own, while in
some significant instances the Demo-
Gratis have lost Proba bly, the most
marked of these cases are the fourth
and Fifth districts OF California CSan

resentatiVes Livernash and Wynne,
Democrats. which reports indicate have
been gained by the Republicans, Tn
the Twelfth Ohio district TayleT Re-
publican, is reported TO have defeated
Badger. The most surprising of all
the reports, however come from the
First and Fifth Missouri districts both
strongly Democratic and the former
represented by Mr. Cowherd, chairman
of the Democratic congressional com
mittee. The Republicans claim TO have
carried both districts. In the light of
these reports Republican majority Of
fifty is considered a conservative esti-
mate.
Returns from the southern states
show that they have returned the
usual Democratic majorities of con-
Sressmen. as on other candidates.
The result justified the wisdom of
the Republican policy which was to
give especial attention i'm the cam
paign to close congressional districts.
1t is possible the Republican majority
in the senate will show little If any
change in the present voting strength.
OF the ninety members of that body
hfty-seven are Republicans and thirty
three Democrats. The terms of thirty
senators expire on the 4th of March
next. OF these, Dick of Ohio. Daniel
of Virginia and Money of Mississippi
have been elected and McComas of
Maryland has been succeeded by
Raynner of the same state.
This is a Democratic gain. and the
only one made SO far. OF those whose
term expires, seven are Democratic and
