that a number OF Republicans voted
for Mcclellan in order to aid in the
defeat Of Hearst. Hearst's large vote
shows that the Municipal Ownership
league must be reckoned with as a
factor in the city's politics. Coler's
election as the president Of the bor-
eugh of Brooklyn gives the league
representation on the board of esti-
mate and apportionment, which has
control of the city expenditures. It
is estimated that this board will di-
rect the outlay of 100000, 900 during
the next four years.
The weather was ideal, aiding great
ly in the polling of a large vote. There
was little disorder, and although many
arrests were made, they frequently
were due to misunderstanding or cler-
ical errors, and only few men were
held for trial.
More splitting Of tickets was done
probably than ever before, yet the
voting was unusually rapid. An Incl
dent of the day was the desertion of
several hundred of Mr.. Hearst's poll
watchers, who went over to the oppo-
sition.

BAD NEWS FROM CAUCASUS

them with arms and bombs. Two
companies of Cossacks are said to
have been entirely wiped out. The
entire trouble is of revolutionary
character, but it gives the peop1e an
opportunity to manifest their race
hatreds, and the most horrible atroci-
ties have been committed. According
to merchant who has just arrived
from Baku. the scenes witnessed there
were beyond belief, and not only mur-
der, but torture in all forms has been
perpetrated. An Armenian girls fin
gers were cut of one by one and aft
erwards her arms and legs were am

Pattison's Election Not Certain.

Cincinnati. Nov. S.-Since the early
reports, which estimated the plurality
of Pattison {Dem.), for governor, at
10000 or 10000 in Hamilton county,
and like amount in Cuyahoga county,
the returns have failed to indicate the
election of Pattison. Taking 220 pre-
cincts in Cincinnati, 40 in Columbus
602in Cleveland and 16 in Toledo, the
average Democratic gain is 106 to the
precinct. In 120 precincts received
outside of the above cities the Demo-
cratic gain average thirty-three to the
precinct. Estimating the 733 precincts
in the above cities and the $500 pre-
cincts outside gives a Democratic gain
OF 1S9,56S, or 40,S21 votes less than
Laylin's (Rep.) plurality in 1904.

Indiana.


Indianapolis, Nov. 8.-Returns from
b6 cities in. Indiana indicate that the
Republicans haye been victorious In
26 and the Democrats in 20. The
tickets named by the citizens organi-
cations carried in ten municipalities.
The elections in many cities developed
surprises, chief among which was the
defeat of the Republican tickets at
Evansville and Richmond Mayor
Bidaman, candidate for reelection on
the Republican ticket at Terre Haute,
was defeated by James H. Lyons
(Dem.), who conducted his campaign
On the issue of municipal ownership.
The early reports, though very
meager, were so strongly in favor of
Pattison that his election was bull
letined and announced in many of the
extras, but as fuller returns came in
showing reduced ratio of gains the
Republicans became more hopeful and
the Democrats refused to give out
any statements, although they still
maintained that they had gained a
notable victory.

 Why should a witness be compelled by law to attend court at a sacrifice of his own time and expense, and, if a farmer. at the loss of his team, when 1t Is often needed on the farm, and more at all.
 When the witness is discharged he is furnished with a certificate of his at- tendance, If the State fails to convict, which in most counties is not worth registering and is not worth the paper 1t Is written on.
 The witness for a defendant in a criminal case never receives any pay. If a State witness receives seventy-five cents per day for his attendance the defendant must be convicted when the State pays that pitiful sum and mile- age.
 If the State fails to convict the State says to her witnesses. "The State Is through with you. You may go. The State Is not responsible for cost Prove your attendance before the clerk and he will issue you a certificate which Is charged to the county, not to the state" And in nine counties out of ten the wit ness never receives one cent for his att tendance.

The Portsmouth Star seems of the opinion that Roosevelt will fall be- tween two stools. as 1t were It reasons in this way: Despite the curious and undignifed acts of which he has been guilty. the people admire President Roosevelt because he is an honest, brave and e wholesome patriot. But nobody has any con- fidence in his wisdom, and he has not the slightest idea of deliberation. The Senate is on guard against him and the House is not in harmony with him. So the question is. what chance has President Roosevelt? He Is in a de- liant attitude toward his own party: he has not won the confidence of the Democratic Party. So what chance has he to do more than he has done heretofore in his twenty years of ofice- holding and disturbance making?" Like that famous legendary coffin of Mahomet which hangs between the heavens and the earth, Roosevelt may find himself in the air. politically. when his term expires.

 The counties, I dare say, would ar- range to pay all witnesses in misde- meanor cases, If the State would pay witnesses in felony cases The counties Will never be able to pay both and little enort Is made to meet such an unjust burden.

 The county convict labor under con- trol Of the Commissioners Court or Board of Revenue. but which the State Convict Inspectors wish to control, are now receiving for their labor four times as much as they were four years ago. and if this is true of counties with short time, the same should be true of tained in the next Legislature for the relief of the counties and witnesses. then a similar law as Georgia has ought to be enacted, which provides that each county may retain and work all lconvfcts whose term of sentence does not exceed five years on the pub lie roads of the county; or may hire out such convicts. the proceeds of their labor to be used in improvement of the public roads.

WAR AND AIR-sHIPs.

Monsieur Santos-Dupont gives 1t as his opinion that during the present generation flying machines will reach such a stage of perfection that they will make war impossible. Dumont is known as a very sanguine inventor and experimenter, but for all that he has not yet perfected a thorough flyer. 1 nor have others been more successful There Is always something lacking, or some defect that bars the way to per- feet success.
 But suppose the long-expected per feet machine Is invented, how Is that to put a stop to war? He does not tell us ana we are left to conjecture. If a war were going on between two great powers, one of which was fully equipped with reliable flying machines, we can easily see what an advantage it would have over the other. If there were no other advantage the celerity of movement would be a tremendous one. The ability to "git thar fust with most men," as Forrest Is charged with putting it, would give
 
 estimated. To send an army through the air with the .swiftness and certain ty of bird flight would give the power possessing that advantage complete control of the situation.
 Then. again. in this day of high ex- plosives an aerial army would be able to sail above the enemy g army and annihilate it by dropping bombs and other deadly missiles on an enemy who have no defence or escape and no means of retaliating. If both the op- posing powers possessed the flying armies each could destroy the towns of the other with certainty and impunity. All this would of course make war un- popular.
 But there Is another feature of such a method of warfare that would, in our judgment do more to make wars objectionable, if not impossible, than anything we have mentioned, and that is the horrors that would inevitably attend a battle above the clouds. It would be something like Milton's des- cription of the combat between the armies of Light and Darkness as set forth in Paradise Lost" where the contending armies fought in mid-air. A battle on land or sea is sufficiently

 OF VALUABLE EXPERIENCE.
A Former Pronounced Dyspeptic He Now Rejoices in Perfect Freedom
 from Miseries of Indigestion.

Now RejOices in Perfect Freedom from Miseries of Indigestion. Thousands of sufferers know that the reason why they are irritable and de- pressed and nervous and sleepiess is because their food does not digest, but now to get rid of the difficulty Is the puzxiing question. The doctor often requires good deal of time to get in- 70 helpful relations with the case and
 ID expensive and disappointing, while most advertised remedies relieve just Tor the moment.
 Good digestion really calls for strong digestive organs. and strength comes rom supply of good rich blood. For Hams Pink Pills for the cure of indiges- ton. and writes as follows regarding his experience:
 Ihey have been my best doctor. I was sunerfng from dyspepsia. The pains In my stomach after meals were almost unbearable. My sleep was vevy irregular and my complexion was sal low. an unusual thing in the case of a man Of twenty-five. As the resuIt of using eight boxes of Dr. Williams Pink Pills, about the merits of which learned from friends in France, have escaped all these troubles, and am abIe again to take pleasure in eating."
 A very simple story, but if 1t had not been for Dr. Williams Pink Pills. 1t might have been e tragic one. When discomfort begins with eating. fills up the intervals between meals with pain and prevents sleep at night there cer- tainly cannot be much pleasure in liv- Ing. As every part of the body must under such circumstances be ill-nour- ished a final general breaking down must be merely question of time.
 MT. Joseph Baysson Is a native of the celebrated health resort, Aix-1es- Bains, France, but is now an Ameri- can and resides at No. 2439 Larkin Street. San Francisco, Cal. He Is one of great number who can testify ito the remarkable efficacy of Dr. Will liams' Pink Pills in the treatment of obstinate disorders of the stomach.
 Proper diet is, of course. a great aid in forwarding recovery once begun. and a little book, What to Eat and How to Eat" may be obtained by any one who makes request for 1t by writing to the Dr. Williams Medical Co. Schenectady, N. Y. This valuable diet book contains an important chap- ter on the simplest means for the cure of constipation.
 Before, however, the plainest food can be digested, the digestive organs must be strengthened. It Is just at this point that pr. Williams Pink Pills are worth many times their trifing cost. They contain elements that pass at once Into the blood, and stimulate and strengthen the digestive organs to do their work.
 If. therefore. you would get rid of nausea, pain or burning in the stom- ach, vertigo, nervousness, insomnia, or any of the other miseries of dyspep- tic. get rid of the weakness of the digestive organs by the use of pr. Williams Pink Pills. They are sold by druggists everywhere.

A RELATED WARRIOR.


 As an example of the feeling yet ex- isting among some of the utter im- plaeables of the North we find in The New Haven Register short communi- cation from a man who signs himself Veteran" and who says:
 Tn reading in your paper the letter Niles. feel Nike saying to her, shut up, for heavens sake" It has always been blot on the nation that it did not try him for treason and hang him with the woman's clothes on that he tried to escape the country in, for he well knew he deserved 1t.
 We think it more than probable that this fellow was veteran" in the com missary department. or he might have driven an ambulance. Still, he may have ben soldier who has never for given the South for winning so many battles. There are some of that kind yet on the pension roll, and they never let an opportunity pass to show their spite and venom, which they can now do without danger.
 We do not know that there is any thing to be gained by debating or dis cussing the Davis Miles episode. That Miles treated the Confederate Presi- dent brutally Is beyond controversy. That he did it in obedience to an in- famous public sentiment, intensified by the infamous proclamation of Andrew Johnson, urged on by the still more infamous stanton, may be an explana- ton of Miles's action, but is no defence for it.
 But in his controversy with Mrs. Davis and in his attempted defence of himself he has shown himself both un- gentlemanly and untruthful. He has made statements which are utterly without foundation, and has used lan- guage about Mrs. Davis which no gentleman would use about a lady such as she Is. and a lady, too, who has almost reached the age of four score. No explanation that he can make will excuse the brutality of his conduct towards Mir. Davis or his lam guage to the bereaved widow. We feel free to say this much.
 As to what this modern Bombastes has to say about trying and hanging Mir Davis, and the woman's dress, that Is what might be expected of a man who would write such a letter. If he does not know that MT. Davis was not dressed in woman's clothes he Is too ignorant to tell a cod-hsh from a ground-hog; if he does know 1t he in- sinuates a falsehood, which would doubtless be very easy for him. He must also be very ignorant if he does not know that the United States was unable to try Davis for treason and could not have convicted him if it had tried. It had some officials who want ed to try him, or who would have hanged him without trial, had they dared.
 But whats the use of arguing with fool?

Amendment to U. c. v. Constitution.
 The proposed amendment to the Veterans. which will be acted upon du- ring the Louisville reunion, are at tracting attention from the veterans. t II IS proposed to change article z: seo- quarters, placing the designation of the general Headquarters within tho discretion of the commanding general. The amendments to be acted upon are
 .. Amend article '. paragraph, General Headauarters," of the section i, to read as follows: "Article 2. Section l. The tion shall be designated by the gen eraI commanding, and shall be located at such point as shall. in his judg- ment. be most convenient or the trans ton"
 While permanent headquarters pos sess some advantages that are mani many disadvantages, and the disadvan- tages outweigh the advantages. One of the most pernicious disadvantages is that the people of the city selected for general. acquire an idea of possession. that causes them to attempt to dictate to the organization. and to assume au- thority that belongs exclusively to the whom they delegate their authority.
 Amend Section 3. Article '. "Genaral Headquarters" to read as follows: "All the records. papers and archives and standards of this federation not turned over to. the Sons of Confederate Vet erans shall. at the dissolution of the United Confederate Veterans Associa- ton. be deposited at the battle abbey at Richmond, Va"
 At the time the present law was framed and adopted the federation had n, no place In which to deposit its arch an early, day of the battle abbey fur nished the association with a fitting and safe depository for Its records. rel ics and standards.

Equally Culpable.

Macon Telegraph.
 If President Roosevelt had a right to declare a constructive recess" as oc- curing during a on-existent interval ends. the members of the House of Representatives had a right to vote themselves the expenses of imaginary travel in order to eke out their slender incomes. There was absolutely no le- gal or moral right in either case. but no greater culpability in the latter than in the former. if as great. for the chief offender would appear to be the perpetrator of the original fraud.
 As 1t appears to us, it is nothing but miserable snobbery to condemn the members of the House of Representa- tives because they are less powerful the President and a popular idol.

MiddIs Part Coming Back.


 Once on a time all women parted their hair in the middle, and it was looked on as so thoroughly feminine a habit that men who followed it a de- cade or two ago were laughed at as effeminate. Then the fashion switched from one sex to the other. Men whose achievements in the war for wealth or the struggle for fame left no room for ridicule began to divide their stubborn locks evenly. Women, on the other hand. took to parting their tresses on the side. Now the middle part Is re- stored to its rightfu1 owner, Miladi Beautiful, and it promises to be univer- sal among women before the seasons end. Somehow it seems more appro- priate for women than for men, par ticularly when the part is in the dead center of the cranium. Of course, not all women can make a division in their crowning glory and for them remains the pompadour. which, strangely enough, is a positive boon to those whom nature has equipped scantily. Many a woman Is the prettier for the pompadour couiffure. Features are softened wonderfully and otherwise insignificant faces borrow an air of distinctio from the flowing wave. But the central part will have its sway with all who have hair enough to make it practicable.
