Some Talk of a Contest.

The Clay County Republican. a re- publican newspaper published at Corning, has annouced that Taylor, the defeated republican candidate, will institute a contest for Macons seat, charging fraud in the election. The Republican says that fraud was committed in every county except Clay This wholesale charge of fraud is humorous to the extent of being ridiculous.
 Was there any fraud in Greene? Well, hardly, and we don't believe there is a man in the county who will say there was
 Of course this wholesale charge of fraud is made for political effect and is not seriously done. Nobody knows the untruthfulneSs of the charge better than the editor Of the Repub- lican does. We rather regard the threat of contest as an idle boast that Mir. Taylor will not attempt to put in force, for surely he would not profit by it, even with republican congress to pass upon it.

took the bet and Brown won 1t. It
is said that Youngblood had been
drinking pretty freely; he charged
that Brown had won the bet unfair
~ and the first thing Brown knew,
pruning knife was ripped across
his throat. He began to bleed pro-
fusely at once and the bystanders
were staggered by the sight, the
wounded man presenting one mass

aud bound up his own wounds and
party started to bring him to
town at once, but on the way, the
horse ran away, dragging the in
iured man a considerable distance
and finally leaving him stretched
upon the roadside. It is a miracle
that he escaped death in his weak
ened condition. Another buggy was
secured and he was brought tc
town, fainting from loss of blood
soon after the Kimball House wa:
reached.
youngblood escaped and securing
his Winchester rife, went to the
rock quarry near his place and
swore be would never be taken.

came from Anadarko yesterday
and went to the place bat they
didn't think it best to proceed tc

afternoon Youngblocd went to hi
house and leaving his gun, started
for the barn. Sheriff Thompson
who vas lying in wait, managed
to get between the man and th'
house and pulling hi
compelled the man to surrender

REFERS TO SMITHS WIVES

Burrows chairman of the senate
committee on privileges and elections
opened to Smoot debate this afternoon.
In speech Of thirty thousand words
carefully prepared, he marshalled his
arguments against seating Smoot.
Early in the argument he said there
was no evidence that Smoot is guilty
Of polygamy. He referred to the po-
sition of Smith. leader of the Mormon
hierarchy, the husband of five wives
and the father of forty-three children.
He quoted Smiths testimony that
congress had nothing to do with pri-
because he is a member of the Nor
mon hierarchy, his membership inter-
fering with the functions of state be-
cause the hierarchy of which he is a
member encourages pOlygamy and be-
cause Smoot, as a member of the hier-
archy has taken an oath hostile to
the government of the United States
and incompatible with his obligations
as senator.
He reviewed the domination of the
church in politics. He said there is
no case in Utah showing the defeat of
man favored by the Mormon church
nor of ones election when the church
opposed.
