Ward a group of Republicans we'll
known at the Camden Republican Club
combated all efforts of leaders and
workers to get them to vote.
The general ground for the Oppose
ton to the machines is that the voter
cannot see how he is voting. He only.
sees a lever marked Republican. or
Democratic or prohibition" hears
the click of the machinery, the ringing
of bell and it is all over, and he cam
see that he has done anything. He
prefers the old style of voting with a
slip of paper on which of can
didates are printed and placed in a box
before his eyes. He is not satisfied with
the assertion of those who know how
the machines are built that it is the
most accurate and honest way to vote,
that the machine cannot be manipu-
and that corruption is reduced to
the minimum. Some of the foremost
Republican leaders in the State have
been forced to the conclusion that the
machines, which cost the State 5000. 600,
will have to go.

Maryland Surely Democratic,
but Kentucky Chooses a
Republican Governor.
DELAWARE SPLITS EVEN
Two of the License Districts Go
Dry and Two Wet-.RhOde Island
Reflects Higgins by an In
creased Plurality Over the
Vote of Three Years Ago.

NEW YORK, Nov. Traditional re-
turns received this morning confirm
the general results already announced,
and clear up some of the doubts in
closely contested elections. The re-
suits, that were doubtful outside of
New Jersey, are now established as
follows:
Maryland has elected the Democratic
candidate for Governor, Judge Austen
L. Crothers, and the entire Democratic
State ticket. The Legislature is ap-
p%arently Democratic. Ex-Governor
Smith carried the primaries for the
long term in the United States Senate.
and Senator William Pinckney Whyte
is assured of the short term.
Kentucky has elected the entire Re-
publican State ticket, headed by Au-
gustus r. Wilson for Governor by
majorities ranging from 5000 to 10000.
The Kentucky Legislature will have a
Democratic majority on joint ballot,
and probably will elect Governor Beck
ham to the United States Senate.
The vote on the liquor question in
the four districts of Delaware shows
that there was q majority in the State
as a whole for license of from 1000 to
| 1900, but the actual result is that Ii
cense prevails in two. districts and pro-
hibition in the other two. The license
districts are the city of Wilmington,
with a population of about $4,000, with
$50 bars, and rural Newcastle County,
with a population of 10000 and about
thirty drinking places. The prohibition
districts are Kent County, with a pop
ulation of $4,000 and about twenty
drinking bars, and Sussex County, with
o 1000 population and about twenty-five
drinking bars.
t. Rhode Island has reelected Governor
James H. Higgins, the Democratic
candidate for Governor. his plurality
now reaching 2,3O7, a gain of 1000 since
1904. The General Assembly is Republi-
a in both branches, insuring the re-
turn of George Peabody Wetmore to
the United States Senate.

handsome court. The corner lanterns are
among the finest specimens of Italian iron
work Of the period. Many old, famous
works OF art were in the palace, but were

accepted that Dade would be divided.
Aside from other reasons given for
the division. the county is 1876 miles in
length and the inconvenience to citi-

YACHT CLUBS HOME
NEW PLACE WILL BE OPENED In
- JULY
Commodore Merrill of Mobile Fleet
Leaves for New York, where
He May Purchase New
Flag Shin.

Mobile. May a. Especial. )--Commo-
dore Frank B. Merrill of the Mobile
Yacht Club. left this afternoon for
New York on a business trip. 1t is
the opinion of the commodore that
while the contractors engaged in con-
structing the new club house of the
Mobile Yacht Club off Monroe Park
expected to complete the greater por-
tion of the structure by July 1, it is
scarcely possible that 1t will be entire
~ completed before the latter part of
the month.
While the club house will not be en-
tirely completed, it is the plans of the
club to take possession about July 1,
the formal opening occurring soon af-
ter the building is completed.
With this in view the club has ask
ed the Regatta Committee of the South
ern Gulf Yachting Association to
change the date of the regatta of the
Mobile club from July 4. the date set.
untu some day early in August This
will no doubt be granted and the date
selected will be made the occasion for
house warming, the event possibly
extending over several days in con-
nection with the regatta.
Some months ago Commodore Mer-
rill disposed of his flag ship, the
ouatchouan. and referring to another
flag ship the Commodore said that II
was his intentions while in the East
to look around for a vessel more
adaptable to Southern waters than the
Ouatchouan. A temporary flagship
however, will be secured for the yacht
ing season this year.

Killing OF Pierce Travis At Foshee IL
Declared To Have Been Jus

R. Stewart was given preliminary
hearing before Justices Leslie B. Nc
ConnelI and w. r. Hammac at Foshee
Tuesday for the killing of Pierce
Travis at that place last Saturday
night.
An entire day was devoted to the
trial and the taking OF testimony OF all

the killing, and 1t was the verdict of
the magistrates that 1t was a justifia-
BILE homicide. and to use the language
of Justice Mcconnell on his return
from Foshee yesterday 1T was the
clearest case OF justifiable homicide
that I have ever tried or ever heard

Travis was a reckless man and par
ticularly so when under the Influence
of liquor. Witness after witness testi-
fed of the previous threats that Travis
had made against Stewart before the

Mr.. william F. vahlberg, Oklaho-
ma City, Okla, writes:
"One bottle Of Peruna which / have
taken did more toward relieving me of
an aggravated case of catarrh OF the
stomach, than years of treatment with
the best physicians.
IT had given up hopes of relief, and
only tried Peruna as a last resort.
II shall continue using it.. as I feel
satisfied 1t will effect an entire and
permanent cure.
II most cheerfully recommend Pc
runa to all who may read this"
Peruna is usually taken as a last
resort Doctors have been tried and
failed. other remedies have been
used. Sanitariums have been visited.
Travel has been resorted to.
At last Peruna is tried. Relief is
found.
This, history is repeated oyer and
over again, every day in the year. 1t
is such results as this that gives Pc
runa its unassailable hold upon the
people. We could say nothing that
would add force to such testimonials
as the above. That people who have
had catarrh and have tried every 9TH
er remedy available, find relief in Pc
runa, constitutes the best argument
that could be made.

RETURN OF RAGAN
FORMER POSTMASTER Is SAID TO
HAVE CONFESSED.
He mad Frank Roberts are Expected In
Admission ON the Same Train
Shortage IL
xSO7zIO

Admission May 2-(Special.) "A
capias and copy OF the Federal grand
Jury's Indictment of former Postmas-
ter James Madison Raglan has been
sent to the marshal of the district of
Colorado by Major Charles J. Allison,
clerk of the Northern District of Ala
bama, asking for the return of the flu
gitive postmaster to Admission. -
This information and order will be
received by the Colorado officials Wed
nesday morning. it Is said, and 1t is
considered likely that Raglan and Rob-
erts may be returned to Admission on
the same day, probably leaving Bir-
mingham at the same time.
As Ragan's crime was committed
against the Government, and he is now
within the United States. no requisi-
ton will be necessary to have him re-
turned to Admission. Inasmuch as he
Is said to have confessed his identity,
the capias and the indictment will be
sufficient to justify the District Judge
in Issuing an order of removal
III Raglan should deny his identity,
it would be necessary to send a man
to Pueblo to identify him. Judge G. B.
Randolph has been asked to go on this
mission should 1t be founnd necessary
Judge Randolph will not have to take
the trip, however as 1t is said that the
telegram received in Birmingham was
to the effect that Raglan not only ac-
knowledged his identity. but made a
full confession of his guilt.
The last figures given out stated that
Ragan was short in his accounts
$3.6S3.92, but in the Indictment. the
amount of his enlightenment Is placed
at $3.077.10. The story about Raglan
having left in woman's attire is con-
firmed, Deputy Marshal Root stating
that he was going East in that garb
when last heard of before Postmaster
Barker was notified that he was in
Pueblo.
Judge Street, District Attorney, says
that Frank Roberts will not likely
have to undergo the formality of a
trial, If the telegram stating that he
had made full confession is true. and
this statement will likely hold good in
the case Of Raglan.
Raglan, 1t is said, will be held respon-
sible for the amount Of Roberts short
age. as he did not require his clerk to
make bond. This would, II true, rem
der him liable to a maximum sentence
of ten years, and the amount Of the
defalcation as q fine. Roberts will
likely receive only the sentence, the
minimum being three months.
Since he has been in Pueblo. It is
said. Raglan has been going under the
name Of J. Reynolds.

CROP ALMOST DESTROYED.
Cotton In south Madison Reported t.
Houa N9oor Prosnacfa

Huntsville. May 22.-(Speeial.)-
N. M. Rowe. representative of Madi-
son county in the State Legislature,
writes a very pessimistic report of cot
ton prospects in the southern part of
this county. He says all of the best
seed has been planted and nearly all
killed by the unreasonable weather, and
only about 40 per cent of the seed that
remains for planting will germinate
Mr.. Rowe believes half a crop will be
impossible in this section and that the
average farmer will do well to make
enough for seed next year.
