ANT is OFF .lALLY
ANNOUNCED

Michael Garvin, who resides south
Of the city to be deputy sheriff IF
Wapello county under Sheriff w. W.
jackson, when the change is made
from the present regime January ].
Tuesday evening Mr.. Jackson stated
to; representative of the Courier that
his choice of deputy was at that time
not definite. He said that his action
on Mr.. Garyin's application for the
position was conditional upon the ac-
ton Of the county board of superyi-
sors in the county superintendent con.
troversy. If Miss Katherine Garvin.
the democratic candidate was decided
to be elected, he stated, he would APP
point some one else as deputy but in
event that her opponent was declared
to be the winning candidate, her
brothers. application for the Office Of
deputy sheriff would be accepted.
Now that the county superintendent
tangle has been finally and definitely
settled and Hiss Nye will assuredly
succeed herself at the expiration of
her second term, there is no doubt as
to the identity Of the next deputy
sheriff. 1t will be Michael Garvin.

tally sheet. The sum Of the tailed
votes is added to the number of
straight votes and the result is placed
in column on the tally sheet marked
total
The total vote cast for each candi-
date is then transcribed to an itemized
summary, which is placed in the back
Of each poll book. One of the poll
books is then placed in an envelope,
on the back Of which the votes for the
various candidates are again summar-
lied. This book is placed in the hands
Of the county auditor and the itemized
summary in the book becomes the Off
cial returns from the voting precinct.
The unofficial returns are compiled by
the auditor from the figures on the en-
velope.
The second poll book, which should
be, in every vital point, identically the
same as the first one, is turned over
to the township clerk. The two books
from the first ward did not correspond.
While the itemized summary was be,
ing filled out, as the vote for county
superintendent was called, Clerk
Charles M. Coggswell, fatigued with al
most sixty hours Of continuous labor,
wrote the number 225 as two hundred
and fve," emitting the word twenty"
Clerk H. M. Jordan, In his book wrote
the number correctly as it was called.
But 1t was Coggswells book which
happened to be turned in to be passed
upon by the county board of super
visors as the official returns from the
first ward.
Clerk Refuses to Sign Returns.
The law says that the board of SUI
pervisors cannot go back of the re-
turns. After the error was discovered
the question arose as to whether the
board could allow the election officials
from the first ward to correct it, BY
precedent established in the case of
the Dana-Chisman contest for the Of
fee of treasurer five years ago, it
seemed that the board could not.
However, another phase of the ques-
ton now arose. Clerk Coggswell had
not signed the official returns as is
required by law before the board can
pass upon them. He refused to sign
the returns unless allowed to correct
his mistake.
Lale yesterday afternoon In the pres.
ence of the three judges from the first
ward, Charles Campbell, Fred j. Bull.
lock and A. l.. Reynolds, Clerk H. M
Jordan, and the two interested candi-
dates, Mr.. Coggswell corrected his err.
ror and signed the returns. The returns
were then canvassed and passed by the
board, the result being Miss Nye's
election to the Office of county super.
intendent of schools by plurality OF
nineteen, her total vote in the county
being 3,643, and Miss Garvin's 1924.
This will be the vote as shown in the
official count, when the canvass is fin
ished by the supervisors, and unless
unexpected developments arise, Miss
Nye will succeed herself at the end Of
her present term.

PARTY INCREASES
SENATE MAJORITY
MARGIN OF REPUBLICANS IN
THAT BODY OVER OPPOSE.
rloN is GREATER
Senator's Will be Sent From, Idaho and
Montana - Speaker Cannon Says
Elections Show Satisfaction With
Existing Conditions in Country.

Washington, Nov 15.-After March
next the United States senate will
present political complexion which
it has not had since civil war days.
The election of republican legislatures
in Montana and Idaho, insuring the
selection of republican senators in the
places of Clarke and Dubois, will mean
that the senate in the sixtieth con-
gress will contain sixty-one republi-
cans and only twenty-nine democrats.
The total membership Of the senate
is ninety, and thus the republican
party will be precisely equal to the
entire democratic representation, not
counting two democratic senators VINO
later on are to come from Oklahoma.
There will not be a democratic sena-
tor from a state north of the Ohio
river and the old Mason and Dixie
line. The only other time in the his
tory of the republic when such a state
of affairs existed was during the civil
war, when the members Of the senate
from the confederate states resigned,
their places not being filled until after
the reconstruction had been perfected.
Democrats In Senate.
The senate of the sixtieth congress
will contain two democrats each from
Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia,
Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mis-
lima, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia,
and one democrat each from Colorado,
Nevada and Missouri.
This situation seems to insure the
control of the senate by the repub-
lican party during the next president
ial quadrennium, unless there should
be tremendous democratic landslides
in 1908 or 1910.
This condition bears emphatic tes-
timony to the disorganized condition
Of the democratic party as a whole,
and at the same time to the success
of President Roosevelt as party lead.
err. Never since the civil war has the
republican party been in as good con
dition, both from the viewpoint of
party organization and that of pledges
fulfilled, as during the present admins
tration.
JubiIant in the East.
The standpat republicans of the east
are quite 1ubilant over this senate out
look, which means that there will be
no tariff legislation by the democrats,
even If a democratic president should
be elected in 1908, with a democratic,
house of representatives. The only
cnance for tariff revision in the rela-
lively near future, therefore, will be
controlled by the republicans. Speaker
Cannon is understood to hold that the
recent congrt SIS elections show that
the country as whole is satisfied
with existing conditions and does not
want a change. the defeat of repre-.
sentative McCleary in Minnesota is
looked upon MS al arciient 'dae IL

thing which has happened to McCleary
happened to half dozen Of the other
prominent standpat members of the
present congress, the speaker might
be Of different frame Of mind.

MISS NYE TO BE
SUPERINTENDENT
MISS KATHERINE GARvIN WILL
NOT CONTEST THE ELECTION
OF HER OPPONENT
Democratic Candidate Allows Change
In Returns From the First Ward to
Be Made When Convinced That Err
ror Has Been Made.


Miss Enma Nye will hold the Office
OF county superintendent of schools
for Wapeilo county for the next two
years. There will be no contest in
spite of the fact that Miss Katherine
Garvin, the democratic candidate,
would have been given good grounds
for taking the question into the courts
by precedent established five years
ago. Miss Garvin would rather accept
her defeat gracefully, than owe her
election to any clerical error which
may have been made in compiling the
official returns.
IF was elected by the vote of the
citizens of Wapello county I wanted
the Office. If was not elected fairly
and squarely, did not want it," said
Miss Garvin to a representative of the
Ottumwa tri-weekly courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1903-1916, 1906-11-17

Courier yesterday afternoon. The re-
mark was occasioned by the action of
the judges and clerks of the election
board from the first ward, who had
just changed the returns from that
ward and had credited Miss Nye with
225 votes instead of 205 votes, which
change assured the election of the re-
publican candidate instead of her dem
ocrattc opponent. In the first ward
225 votes were actually cast for Miss
Nye, but because of clerical error In
the returns she was only credited with
205 votes.
Is Made With Miss Garvin's Consent.
At the time the change in the re-
turns was made Miss Garvin was pres
ent and the alteration was made with
her full consent. In speaking of the
controversy that arose over the re-
turns from the first ward, Miss Garyin
said:
when saw for myself that the tai
lied vote gave Miss Nye 225 votes in
the first ward and that she was really
entitled to that number l was perfect
~ willing that the change should be
made. did not wish to owe my cleo
ton to any legal technicality or to any
precedent. I did not wish to owe it to
anything except a plurality of the
votes cast for county superin tendent.
am satisfied with the action of the
election board
And so a controversy, which for a
time babe fair to cause a contest be-
fore the election of a county super
intendent for Wapello county could be
definitely decided, has been settled
and settled amicably.
The cause of the controversy was a
simple one. BY the omission Of sin.
gle word by an overworked and al
most exhausted election clerk the
identity Of the successful candidate for
the office was for time placed in
doubt.
How the Trouble Started.
On every election board there are
two clerks Each of these clerks has
a poll book, in which, when the votes
are counted, the result is tailed. The
straight ballots; that is those which are
cast voting for every candidate on
one of the several tickets are first
counted by the board after the closing
of the polls. The number of votes
given to each candidate by these
straight ballots is then recorded in a
column reserved for that purpose after
the individual candidates name
The scratched" ballots are then
counted. These are the ballots on
which the elector has cast votes for
candidates of different parties or has
failed to cast his vote for all of the
candidates of one Marty This count fs
tailed by the clerks on a sheet pro-
vided for that purpose and which is
the part of the poll book known as the
