to prove that Barker had been
wronged and that the republican
party should be ashamed for turn
ing it's back on him after he had
taken it from the cradle in its
swaddling clothes, packed" it on
his back through winter weather
for years; yea, sucked and fed it

Missouri.

ST. Louis, Nov. 7.-Secretary Mccoy
ef the Republican state committee ex-
pressed confidence that Missouri had
gone Republican by small majority.
He stated that returns had been re-.
celved from only 25 Of the ia coun-
ties in the state, but basing his esti-
mates Oh these returns, the indica-
tions pointed to a small Republican
majority. At the same time Chair
man Evans of the Democratic commit
tee said: Missouri has gone Demo
cratic by at least $4,000 majority OF
that l am sure, although less than
half the counties had been heard
from. The full returns may show a
Democratic majority of 25,000.'

Colorado.

Denver, Nov. Returns from the
state indicate an increased Democrat
ic vote in some localities, which may
offset the Democratic losses in Den
yer. Boulder county, usually Repuh-
lican by 1000, is claimed by the Demo
Gratis this year by several hundred.
The Democrats also claim Teller coun-
ty Cripple Creekl, whicti gave a Re
publican majority two years ago.
Adams has carried his home county,
Pueblo, by 1000 to 1900. The extent
of the scratching is indicated by the
vote of three precincts in Glenwo2d
Springs. which reports Is straight Re-
publican ballots, 76 Democratic bal
lots and $40 scratched ballots.

S.u.RT WINS IN PENNSYLVANIA
Republican Candidate Elected Coz.
ernor by Over 100000 Plurality.

Philadelphia, Nov. THE most ex-
citing campaign in Pennsylvania in
tweACy five years has ended IN a tri-
umph for Edwin S. Stuart (Rep), for
governor, over Lewis Emery, Jr,
Dem. and Lincoln party by plural
ity that the Republican leaders claim
will reach 100000. Aside from the
contest for governor and other state
officers, the chief interest centered in
the battle in Philadelphia for district
attorney and in a few of the congress
sional districts. Members of the
house of representatives and county
officers were elected in every county
and state senators were chosen in
twenty-five of the fifty districts. Sam.
uel P. Rotan (Rep.) was elected dis
trict attorney in Philadelphia by a
vote which his friends claim will ex.
oeed 10000, defeating D. Clarence Glib
honey, who had the support of the re-
form forces and the Democrats.
The incoming legislature will be
strongly Republican, although not so
overwhelmingly for that party as it
was two years ago.
One Of the chief issues in the state
campaign was the new capitol, which
was dedicated Oct. 4. The fusionists
claimed that several million dollars of
overcharges and Implications are rep
resented in furnishing and equipping
the building. The Republican candi-
dates pledged themselves, if elected,
to investigate honestly these charges
and to place the responsibility for the
alleged extravaganza where it right.

OF the congressional contests, the
hottest was that against John Dalzell,
one of the Republican floor leaders.

Indiana.

Indianapolis, Nov. 7.-Republicans
have elected their entire state ticket
in Indiana by an estimated majority
of between 10000 and $4,000. The
next legislature will be Republican.
Republicans have elected six congress
men, in the First, Sixth, Seventh,
Ninth, Tenth and Thirteenth districts.
The Democrats have elected two, in
the Third and Fourth districts. Re-
publican State Chairman Goodrich
claims the election of Fred Landis in
the Eleventh. Democratic Chairman
O'Brien claims the election of Morr in
the Twelfth and Adair in the Eighth.
Returns from the Second and Fifth
districts are not sufficient to justify
an accurate estimate as to the result
The results are spotted" due to
scratching. The Republican state
ticket carried several Democratic
strongholds, which elected Democratic
county and legislature tickets, and in
other places the opposite was true.
The vote in the state was surprisingly
light.
Indianapolis, Nov. From scatter
ing reports indications are that In
diana has gone Republican by from
$4,000 to $4,000. The election of the
entire Republican state ticket is con-
ceded. Marion county went Republic
an by 5000, the Democrats electing
one county candidate and nerhanS two
The legislature will be Republican.

Idaho.

Boise, Nov. 7.-Scattering returns
indicate that a landslide has over
taken the head OF the Republican
ticket in the north and central por-
tions Of the state. This (Ada) coun-
ty has gone against Governor Gooding
by a majority of a few hundred.
KOCtenai and Latah counties in the
north are claimed by the Democrats to
be for Stockslager against Gooding,
while Washington, Elmore, Boise and
other central counties appear to have
gone the same way. Nothing has been
heard from the southeast, the Mormon
section of the state, but it now seems
quite certain that G0odirg will be de-
feated unless he makes up his losses
in the Mormon counties. The remain
der of the Republican ticket seems to
have run we'll, but how the Republican
legislative ticket is affected is not
clear.

, ment for his protege. How wick
ed then to turn and smite the hand
that gave it bread when it was
a-hunger, that gave it drink when
it was a-thirst. Shame on the in
glorious party that would so soon
forget a faithful friend. But
there may be two sides to this
matter. We are told that Barker
has always feasted and fattened
from the party and that he has
been milestone around it's neck
and a merciless tyrant more terri
bic than the drunkard who COM
PEELED his wife and daughter, ov-
er washtuh and selling matches,

earned cash to quench his thirst.
His sole purpose appears to be
conquest and pillage, and woe be
to him who withholds his support
or attempts to divide his Doodle.

the Cody Cow C, who oils the
wheels of party progress only by

Utah..

Salt Lake, Nov. 1.-THE Republicans
in Utah have elected their state
ticket by the usual plurality, return
ing Joseph Howell to congress and
electing Joseph E. Frick justice of the
supreme court. In Salt Lake county,
where the American, or anti-Mormon
party centered it's efforts, the result is
in doubt. The Americans have plu-
rality of the votes in Salt Lake city,
but this may be overcome by the Re-
publicans in the county outside OF
the city. The Democratic vote in Salt
Lake shows a falling off of probably
80 per cent. 1t is estimated that IS
to 80 per cent of the Mormon Demo
Gratis in this county voted the Repub-
lican ticket.
