RepubIIcans win in Illinois.

Chicago, Nov. AT l o'clock the re
turns showed conclusively that Taft
had carried the state by 100000 to
175,000. Deneen. the Republican can
didate for governor, was elected by a
plurality estimated at from 10000 to
$4,000. The next Legislature, which
is to choose a successor to United
States Senator Albert J. Hopkins. will
be composed of 5s Republicans and 34
Democrats in the Senate and 215 Re
publicans and 176 Democrats in the
House.
The Elbert County tribune., 1908-11-05
Republicans Hold the Senate.

Chicago, Nov 3.-The senate will
show practically no change in political
complexion, the Republicans retaining
a large majority. In Oregon a Demo
crat was given the Endorsement for
United States Senator and II the legis-
lature carries out the will of the voters
as expressed at the primary In that
state the Republican majority will be
decreased by one in the Senate. Other
wise the indications are that the politi-
cal strength of the two leading parties
in the upper branch of congress will
remain as heretofore
The terms of thirty-one senators ex-
pire March Ord. Louisiana and Mary
land have already elected Democrats
and Vermont and Kentucky have chos-
en- Republicans. or the remaining 81
members to be elected the probabilities
are that Is will be Republicans and
IL Democrats. Indiana, which elects
a United States Senator, Is considered
doubtefal as to the complexion of the
legislature.
The membership of the Senate Is 92,
the holdover members numbering 81
t43 Republicans and IS Democrats)
The election of II Republicans and 13
Democrats, as seems probable from the
returns giving the makeup of the var
ious legislatures which elect senator's,
would show the strength of the two
leading parties in the Senate:
Republicans, 60.
Democrats, 81.

has carried the state by about 10000
plurality. Henry B. Quinby, Republi-

Fowler Incorporates

The village of Fowler will be in
corporated into CRY of the third
class and will then elect her city
officers. The petition to incorpor-
ate was brought before the board
and also a remonstrance but after
hearing the evidence the board
granted the petition. We might say
that we do not care to bring in all
that was said at the hearing as it
will do no good at this time as many
of the old sores were again laid open
and if it don't stop soon will result
in running sore and never can be
healed. 1t is to be regretted that
thos. people cannot all get together
and dwell In peace and harmony
but it seems like they cannot. They
better do it if they expect to have a
good town.

The Meade State Bank

In another column of this paper will be
found the statement of that bank and it
shows up about as good as any of them and
in fact is ahead of great many. You will
note that they only carry their real estate at
$500. 90 as resource when they have in
reality about s2o.o 10000 worth of real estate.
Again you will note that they have deposit
of SI32, ,2S2. IL and as a resource for this
they have cash and sight exchange s7S. 3S2. 81
or about 90 per cent of the said deposits in
cash. Now this is what is termed very con-
servative banking and shows great strength.
1t is certainly statement of which the bank
officials may be proud and also that in
spires the individual to do business with such
an institution.

it should be SIS per day for. each

Last Saturday about 100 people
of Meade went to Dodge City to
hear that Peerless William Jennings
Bryan who delivered a speech in
that city on the afternoon of that
day. 1t is estimated that about
5000 people heard him and all were
satisfied. Of the Meade crowd we
only heard one complaint and that
was from Uncle John Braden and
he said he did not expect to hear
vefy much when he went People
went from Meade regardless of
party and Republicans who heard
him tell us that he is a great orator
and that he says something and
that the republicans will have to
take notice as he talks the facts and
that everyone is impressed with his
sincerity. The crowd from here all
report having a good time coming
and going and feel well paid for the
trip.

Justice Court

Last Wednesday morning Justice
Stamper's court was occupied with
the case of H. A. Busing VS.. D. G..
Brown. The case grew out of a
board bill which Mr.. Busing claimed
was owing him by Mr.. Brown.
Mr.. Brown is grocery peddler who
has been selling goods in this coun-
ty for the past six months. The
facts as we get them from MIR. Bus
ing are as follows. This man
Brown boarded at his place from
time to time during his travels
through the county selling goods.
Mr.. Busing says he bought one bill
from him while he was travelling for
Sweet Bros, of Chicago, and they
came and everything was satlsfac-
tory. Later Brown induced him to
purchase another bill and in the
mean time Brown went to work for
another outfit and transferred the
!. bill to the new house, to this Mr..
.Buslng objected and refused to
accept the same. In the mean time
Brown owed Busing 81 or So for
boafd and refused to pay same be-
cagse Busing refused to accept the
goJds which he purchased from one
house and the agent had transferred
to another, which house Brown re-
fused to divulge the name to us
when we asked him, and under this
excuse Brown refused to pay. Bus
ing sued him and the case came up
yesterday morning. Brown was
there without counsel and he was
advised what he must do himself or
get an attorney and he sat there
like stump while Stamper gave a
judgment against him for $3.50 and
costs. The moral is let the grocery
peddlers alone and buy from your
home merchant. Later an execu-
ton was issued against Brown and
an effort will be made to collect the
amount.

About ten days ago six box cars
got on fire at Fowler and were
totally destroyed. The next morn
ing some tramps were found around
the depot and were held on suspic-
ion and few days they were
brought down here and placed in
Jail. Now SO far as we know no
warrant has been issued nor no
written charge of any kind has been
made against them and we think
that they should be released at once
as we are past the Spanish Inquisi-
ton and these methods are not
tolerated in any civilized country.
These men should be given a hear
ing at olce or turned lose. If this
matter continues until next week we
shall endeavor to name the parties
who are responsible for the incar-
ceration and we shall criticise them
severely.
