FIGHTS POLICE
WITH BIC RAZOR

Fond du Lac, Nov 8.-Night Ser
geant Ochs and George Morris had a
battle at the police station, in which
the former had narrow escape from
being terribly slashed. Morris was
taken into custody early in the even
ing as a suspicious character by one
'of the detectives.
While the sergeant was booking him
Morris made grab for an inside pocket
and pulled out a large razor with
which he lunged at Ochs. The blade
passed close to Och's neck and would
have severed an artery had not Ochs
jumped. Morris made further attempts
to cut Ochs and the two rolled about
the floor of the room, Morris still -four
ishing the open razor.
Finally, with powerful blow, Morris
Was landed on his back and carried to

slight cuts and bruises neither man
was injured.
Norris, in Justice Watson's court,
was given sixty days in the workhouse

authorities that he has a long record
and an investigation will be made.

a Powerful actor
in the Result
The Latest.

Columbus, O., Nov. S.-John NJ. Pat
tison, democrats, will be the next
governor Of Ohio and his party as
sociates on the state ticket also have
been elected, according to the returns
received up to IL this morning. There
seems no reason to doubt the success
of the entire democratic state ticket
by at least a safe plurality.
A Late Estimate.
Columbus, O., Nov. Sat 1 o'clock
Chairman CARRIER said he would not
give out any formal statement at this
time burt that from reports which had
reached him he considered the election
of Pattison and the entire democratic
ticket assured. He said he believed
Pattison's plurality would approximate
$4,000. AS to the legislature he said
he counted on a large democratic ma
jority in both houses.
The campaign against the reelection
of Governor Herrick began months be-
fore his denomination and has been
carried on so vigorously by the Anti-sa-
loon league that many Sunday night
sermons became political addresses.
Herrick aroused the church and
moral element to aggressive oppos1-
ton by his action in throttling local
option legislation.
Dicks Claim.
Cincinnati, Nov. 8.-Since the early
reports which estimated Pattison's plu-
rality of 10000 or 10000 in Hamilton
county and a like amount in Cuyahoga
county, returns have failed to indicate
the election of Pattison Taking 220
precincts in Cincinnati, 40 in Column
bus. 60 in Cleveland and 16 in Toledo,
the average democratic gain is LOG to
the precinct. In 100 precincts re-
ceived outside of the above cities the
democratic gain is 33 to the precinct
Estimating 1913 precincts in the above
cities and those outside gives a demo-
cratic gain of 189,56S or 40.S21 votes
less than the Laylin, republican, plu
rality in 1904.
At midnight Chairman Dick gave the
following statement to the Associated
Press: 1.-THE election returns are frag-
mentary and meager at this hour, the
delay being dUe to the large number
OF candidates and a great deal Of local
ticket scratching. While it is not
practicable as yet to approximate def
mite figures, the indications clearly
point to the reelection of Governor
Herrick and the entire republican
state ticket by safe pluralities."

Cleveland, o., Nov. 8.-Returns
