Votes Thrown Out.

The executive committee continued the hearing and on the charges brought by Judge Stiles in his petition of contest threw out twenty votes shown by evil dence adduced to have been illegal. One of these votes had been cast for Judge Stiles, leaving nineteen illegal votes to be deducted from the total vote cast for Colonel Higdon. This resulted In total majority of fifteen for Judge Stiles and he was declared the party's nominee for sheriff.
 All the charges of illegal voting made by Judge Stiles in his petition were not investigated for the reason that they were not answered by the eontestee and the investigation. it is claimed. would only have prolonged the hearing and to no purpose.
 This action and the rules by which 1t was done Is bitterly attacked by Colonel Higdon and his supporters and an inde- pendent nomination in mass meeting was the result.
 The name of Judge Stiles will go on the official ballot as the regular nominee of the democratic party and that of Colonel Higdon will go on the ballot as the nom- inee of the democratic and conservative party"
 The lines are closely drawn. Both sides are claiming a large following and the final contest promises to be lively.
 Will Answer Charges.
 It is announced that certain charges made by a representative of Colonel Hig- don will be answered at the mass meeting tonight.
 Another feature that is said to have considerable bearing on the result of the shrevalty race is the possible action of the republicans in placing full ticket in the field for county officers. The nomi- natlng committee of the Jefferson county republican executive committee will meet at the Metropolitan hotel tonight to com~ plete it's work of naming candidates and there is considerable speculation as to what will be done. The committee has already held two meetings but so fag have only made three nominations; name ly, for state senator, senior judge of the criminal court and one representative While members of the republican commit tee refuse to discuss any action or pos sible action of the body. 1t Is understood that the prime question before them is that of putting a candidate for sheriff in the field

Year.
The difficulty of obtaining fence
posts at reasonable prices has given
an impetus scarcely realized to forest
planting in the middle west.
Newspapers, farmers, institutes,
women's clubs, and boards of trade
throughout the region are pointing
out the need OF such material AMI
dwelling on the profit realized by q
few men who planted trees years ago
and whose plantations have been sue
cessful
The local supply of all forest pro-
ducts is insignificant, and timber, If
not grown at home, must be import
ed With the continuous retreat of
the sources of supply under the at
tack of a vigorous demand, the length
of the haul increases and the cost of
transportation rises higher and
higher. Yet the fields and pastures
must be fenced. The posts must be
had.
The annual production of fence
posts in the regular logging camps of
the country, as reported by the last
census, is S,715,661. How many times
greater than this is the annual cut
from the home wood lot no figures
exist to show, but by taking the total
number of the farms and their acre
age and making a conservative allow
ance for posts for the fence inclosing
each farm, it has been estimated that
upwards of 1,OOO,OOO,OOO posts are
set each year, Such figures are too
vast to mean anything.
Even the nine million posts of the
census are a mere drop in the bucket

production, would, If set 3 feet apart,
