can congressman.
Topeka, Kan, Nov. G. At md
night tonight no one can tell how
the election is going. Chairman
drummer of the Republican state
central committee claims the state
by 10000 and Chairman Ryan claims
the state for the Democrats by 12,-
900. Both are basing their estimates
on reports from a very few precincts,
which are coming in. The Republi-
cans have not received more than so
reports up to midnight. More of
those look favorable to Hoch. AT
Democratic headquarters more re-
ports have been received and these
are very favorable to Harris. Shaw
nee county caused one of the big
surprises as 1t seems now to have
turned to Harris. 1t has always been
strong Republican county. If a
few other counties turn as Shawnee,
Harris will be the next governor.
The Democrats claim the county by
1900. The Republicans concede it
by 500. Incomplete returns show
Harris 100 ahead.
1t is reported that Wyandotte
county will be carried by Harris by
1900. Lyon, Brown, Riley, Morris,
Republic, Douglas and some other
counties are claimed for Hoch by
pluralities ranging from 200 to 500
Mcpherson county is reported to be
for Harris by 300. 1t will be we'll
into the morning before either side
can tell definitely which is victorious.
The vote this year is the hardest to
count this state has ever had. Not
precinct was reported until after
nine o'clock. Every man seemed to
delight in splitting the tickets.
But few precincts have beel re-
ported complete. Republicans con-
cede that Hoch's majority will be
cut down one-half to two-thirds of
what it was two years ago and the
normal plurality is cut in two.
The indications are that an excep-
tionally heavy vote was cast in near
ly every precinct of the state. 1t
was an IDEAL election day, generally
clear and warm and 1t was easy to
get the vote out. The Democrats are
not claiming any great part of the
ticket except Harris. They believe
Overmyer will be elected attorney
general and that the railroad COM
missioners will be chosen.

Bernard Shaws New Play

Bernard Shaw's new play. The Doc
tors Dilemma" came OF finally in Lon
don last week. and. as usual. there is a
wide variety OF opinions as to it's mer-
It's. The piece. which Is called a TRACE
dy, appears to be an examination into
the habits and customs OF doctors. In
the cast are representations OF an old
fashioned medical man of forty years
ago. a fashionable physician of today.
a medical scientist whose latest discov-
cry has won him knighthood and a
surgeon who calls himself Mr.. not
Doctor, Walpole. a rich Jewish prac-
titfoner, who Is proud of his race. and
a poor mans doctor. who works for
sixpenny fees. The London Tribune de-
clares that '.Mr. Shaw has never been
more witty. more penetrating or. in a
sense, more deeply human" On the
other hand. the Daily News asserts that
s.the bad taste OF the whole play makes
superficial mockeries of what are the
serious issues of lffe." and adds that
Mr.. Shaw must keep to his socialism
and TO his satire OF the outside OF life.
He has shown in The Doctors Diem
