The Tuesday Election.

The returns of last Tuesdays
election show that the demo
Gratis have carried the city and
SangAmon county by large ma
iorties We cannot give any
causes for this overwhelming
democratic victory, save Repub-
lican apathy and inactivity in
time of peace The leaders Of
the party no longer give support
and recognition to the element
proper, in the party.
The one reason most vital, is
the split and hurrah over the
fight for Uuited States Senator.
AS to the first ward we assign
the cause thus:
First; money, is we fear, vast
ed on ungrateful nonenlties.
Second; the white Republicans,
mostly, are wolves in sleeps
clothes and do not vote for
man who is not classed white
The proof: The first precinct
has approximately 54 colored
votes, Duncan got SO. This pre-
cinct has about 125 Republican
votes.
The second precinct has, APP
proximately 210 Republican
votes, Duncan got 2Oi.
The third precinct gave Dun
can 81, just about the colored
vote and has about $50 Republi-
Can votes in it.. The Republicans
did not vote for Duncan. All
this talk that colored people will
not vote for their own color, is
hot air. We refuse to be fooled
all the time.
We sl vi have colored men up
for places at each election and
shall expect the suffrage from
the party we are affiliated with.

LOVED CHORUS GIRLS.
Story That Harry Thaw Was as Much
of an Admirer of Them as
Stanford White.

Pittsburg, Pa, Sept. 5.-William r.
Braun, proprietor of one of the most
Fashionable dancing schools in this
city, said that Harry K. Thaw had
haunted his place and e~ndeavored to
form the acquaintance of his little girl
pupils until he threw him bodily out
and ordered him never to return.
Evelyn Nesbit, nov Mrs. Thaw, was
then about 10 years old. and she APP
piled to Mr.. Braun for tuition. He had
learned, he declares, hat 'rhaw was
paying her fees, and he refused to re-
ceive her as a pupil. She then went 10
another school, and Thaw settled for
her education in dancing there. Thaw,
so Mr.. Braun says, was paying the ex-
penses of several girls, none more than
10 or IA years old, in dancing schools.
He hung about the school almost con-
stantly, and selected young girls whose
dancing pleased him, anu upon these
he lavished money ex~travagantly. This
was before he had become known as
a chorus girl lover in New York.
Thaw's statement that the first time
he ever saw Evelyn Nesbit was in a
New FORK theater when she was in the
Ahorus. Mr.. Braun says. is false.

WILL NOT HOLE GRAIN

Huron, S. D.. Sept. 5.-Every effort
possible is being made by railroad men
to prevent a car famine when grain
shipments from South Dakota sets in.
Representatives of roads operating in
the state are making a on of each di-
vision. inspecting cars preparatory to
putting into service every one avail
able or that can be made so, at a mo-
ment's notice. That all roads will be
taxed to their utmost capacity is al
ready apparent, and the fact that ele-
vators have been cleared, as nearly as
possible, of their surplus grain and in
many cases enlarged, will materially
aid in caring for grain until shipments
can be made.
There is a disposition on the part of
the farmers not to hold grain longer
than 1t can be gotten to market and
reasonable prices secured. The vast
amount Of money that will come into
the state by reaSon of the immense
grain crop will enable the farmers to
cancel their obligations n make ad-
litional investments in farm lands.
During the past year the freight traf-
&c on all lines within the state has
iinue indefinitely. This, together with
.he fuel shipments into the state, is
likely to interrupt grain and cattle
shipments. and this is being guarded
against as much as possible by rail-
way officials and every effort posi-
Die will be made to accommodate ship

LOST ESQ HEAD CATTLE

Deadwood, $. D., Sept. GA huach of

not less h $40, GOO, are wandering
some place TIVE the southern boun-
dairy of this state ard the Canadian
line, They are the property of Henry
Wyttenbach. of Sturgis, who is practice
ally helpless in the matter. There is
a vast mount of territory included pe-
tween these two boundaries, and cattle
scatter widely. This is IL good i'll
lustration of what was always Likely
to happen TO cattle that We're turned
loose upon the range and allowed to
shift for themselves from shipping sea-
son to round up time.
"A few years ago Mr.. Myttenbach put
about $50 head of stock in the care of
Il ranchman in the western part of this
state. AS they We're yearliags, the
marketing did not IN until last
year, and up to the present time only
BIO head of stock has been recovered.
The proceeds from these will about
cover the original cost and expense of
the range, but the profits on the in
v%estnlent are either wandering around
the country or have been confiscated by
some one who has been able to evade
the inspectors. How careful the in
spectors are, however, is shown by the
fact that only a few months ago Mr..
Wyttenbach received returns on one of
the truants which had been shipped
from Moorcroft and a short time later
he received a check for one thai had
reached South Omaha by being shipped
from Valentine. Neb. In Doth of these
Instances, although the cattle were
shipped with other stock. the inspector
discovered Mr., Wyttenbach's brand
upon them, and sent the check for their
value to him. il is said that these cat

severe storms last. winter.
