Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1906-11-09
The ELECTION.

The election of 1906 has been
held, and while the vote is in
doubt on governor, it seems to be
Hoch with less than 1900. The
other candidates on the Republi-
can State ticket are elected.
Col. Harris made a straightfor-
ward, manly fight, and told where
he stood, especially on law en-
forcement, including the prohibi-
tory law. Gov. Hoch promised
the saloon men through his friends
undisturbed peace, and as a result
the voters of Atchison. Leaven-
worth and Crawford countless, the
largest whisky countie in the
STATE, placed the dollar above their
morality and their better Judge
ment, and voted the Hoch ticket.
A few others throughout the state,
still having faith in the governors
now forgotten pledges of a few
years ago, voted the same ticket
as did the saloon men. It is now
up to them. The strict enforce
ment of the prohibitory law is the
only means by which we will ever
get resubmission, and that is what
would have been the result had

Anyway, the election boards

THE COUNTY ELECTION.

Barton county gave Harris the
splendid majority of 275. Madi.
son, Republican for congress has
about IS, Chatter, for the legis-
lsture about 300. The Democrats
elect Clarke, County Attorney
by about l75, and Epperson for
Register of deeds has 2 majority
with the railroad vote to hear
from.
The other republican candidates
have about the following ma
jorities.
Ashpole, County Clerk, so.
Button, Corner. 43.
Willard, Treasurer, $50.
TORY, Probate Judge, $50.
Opie, County SuDt., 100.
Kellam, District Clerk. 300.
Dalziel, Sheriff, ATS.
Keeper CON-, 4. -
Probably the most gratifying
result is that of county attorney,
and it is the office over which the
hardest fight was made, and as
unreasonable a one as ever was
conducted was made against
Clarke.
We regret the loss of the ticket,
but the candidates who we're elect
ed were good men. and have made
good officers, and as usual our
people give them a second term.
Chas. YOunkin is deserving Of
especial mention, for the manly
campaign any good fight he made,
and he is entitled to the best con-
sideration of the party in the flu.

also made a fight against great
odds.

FORTHECORONATION
KING HAAkoN REACHED TRoND-
JHEM LAST NIGHT.
Princes and Princcsses From All Over
Europe to Witness the Ceremony
French Embassy Was Royalty We'll
coined by the King.


TrondhJem, Norway, June 20.-The
French armored cruiser Admiral Aube
carrying the special French embassy
to the coronation of King Haakon ar
rived here this morning. Immediately
after she reached anchorage, specially
selected for the vessel, her guns awak-
ened the echoes of the ford with a
salute. She then dressed ship" and
then the Norwegian men of war and
shore batteries answered her salute.
Al spanking breeze swept the harbor
causing the flags and bunting to fiut-
ter in a lively fashion and raising a.
sea in which the launches and the cut
ters were tossed about like corks.
But In spite of the breeze a dense
fog prevailed near the entrance of the
ford and delayed the arrival of other
warships and steamers, including the
British royal yacht Victoria and AL
bert, having on board the prince and
the princess of wales, and conveyed by
the cruisers Juno and Talbot. These
vessels were anchored outside the ford
and did not arrive at Trondhjem un-
til this afternoon.
The members of the French embassy
landed at IL O'clock this morning. King
Haalxon received the embassy and
thanked them and their nation for
their presence here. Leading members
of the Norwegian cabinet headed by
Premier Nicholson will leave Christ
iania today for Trondhjem.

DEATH in TUNNEL
TWO VICTIMS OF GOTHAM'S La
TEST PLAYTHlNG.
Men in the Tunnel Blown Into the
River by the Excessive Air Pres
sure Used to Keep the Mud Back
Others in Danger.

New York, June 20.-Two men lost
their lives, another was fatally injur-
ed and six more were severely hurt as
a result Of an accident in the Penn
sylvania tunnel between Thirty
fourth street this city and Long Is
land city today. Twenty four of the
thirty five men who were at work in.
the tunnel at the time of the accident,
escaped without serious injury after
having faced death by drowning The
accident was caused by tremendous
air pressure necessary at the head of
the tunnel to hold back the soft mud
into which a. shield is forced. The
mud under this shield was blown out
and two of the workmen were caught
in the flow of air and were swept to
death in the river.

STANDARD GETS MUTUAL.
Big Oil Octopus Controls the Mutual
Life Insurance Co.

New York, June 2O.-Despite the eff
fort Of President Peabody to keep the
fact secret, it has become known,
through a prominent trustee of the
Mutual Life Insurance Co. that the big
corporation, with almost half billion
of assets, has passed into the hands
of a general committee which has
clinched the hold of the Standard Oil
Co. and its allied corporations upon
the property of the 100000 policy
holders.
At the last meeting of the board of
trustees new bylaws were adopted for
the Mutual Life, which provided for
five standing committees, of each of
which President Peabody and Vice
President McClintock should be mem
bers ex-officio.
There was a further provision that
the supreme authority in the company
should be vested in general commit
tee, to be composed of the president
and the vice president and a repre-
sentative of the five standing commit
tees.

Insurgent Leader spaIding Defeated and
DisCredited in His Own Ward and CITY
Some OF the Results as Shown by Re-
ports From Different Counties In the
State A Few Surprises.

The regular republicans have won
a great victory over the state and will
control the state convention.
The latest official figures at 2
o'clock give the regulars 3O1. the in
surgents 129 and 81 doubtful
The victory is a rebuke to the
muckrake methods of The Grand
Forks Herald and it's weaker imita-
tors.
The numerous "exs," who aspired
to leadership of the new faction Of the
republican party, who wanted to de-
stroy the organization through which
they had formerly enjoyed honors and
emoluments are down and out.
congressman Spalding, who
was the chief of the insurgent howl
ers, is utterly discredited and de-
feated. He lost every precinct in his
home town, including the two pre-
cincts of his home ward, he lost the
city, he lost the county and he lost
the state.
His political funeral seems to have
already been held.
The results show that the mass of
falsehoods, unfounded charges and
malicious insinuations of the leaders
of the new gang were not believed by
the mass of the voters, who are sat
is1ed that the organization which has
controlled the state is not corrupt.
Despite all the hard work of The
Grand Forks Herald the city of Grand
Forks was carried by the regulars
but the county was carried by the in
surgents by a larger majority.
Fargo piled up a big majority for
the regulars, the western part Of the
county was about an even break and
the central section was strongly in
surgent, the regulars winning by
safe majority in the county.
The State.
The following table is compiled
from the latest information received
from the various counties in the state
as to the vote on delegates to the

Terrible Scenes of 5estiality by the
Blood Drunken Mob Of Roushs That

Grodno, Russia, June 20.--Owfng to
the refusal of the censor at Bialystok
to permit a free telegraphic report of
the investigation by the Associated
Press of the massacre of the Jews
there, the correspondent came here.

Imperative orders have been issued
to prevent further outbreaks.
When the correspondent arrived at
Bialystok Sunday morning the worst
was already over, but on all sides
there was revolving evidence OF the
savage bestiality on the part OF the
blood drunken mobs, which for forty
seven hours sacked and burned the
Jewish houses, shops and stores. At
first the police and the troops urged
on the mob but finally when dis

not content with the killing of more

wild animals, and while this was in

case fired into the houses and shops
where the Jews were concealed under
the ptext that thy believed thin to

way for murderers and plunderers,
who followed in the soldiers wake.
The mob seemed TO delight In tortur-

cut from their bodies, and children
were snatched from their mothers
arms and taken by the legs and brain
ed on the pavement before the eyes
OF their parents. An old Jew was
beheaded and the ghastly trophy
was carried all day at the end of a
