all that can be sad with any degree
of certainty we'll after midnight. Re-
turns from the counties are coming
in very slowly. Democrats claim tho
state for Bryan by small majority.
The uncertainty in western Mary
land Is shown by the fact that IA pre-.
cincts in Allegheny county. that gave
Roosevelt 223 plurality, went this
time for Bryan by 70. Parts of that
section of the state are difficult of
access. and the final result will not
be known for some time.

and returns on straight ballots com
plete in no city. town or county In
Colorado. conditions at midnight were
such that it was impossible to give
an idea how the state has gone,
Ii estimated that more than sc
Ger cent of the ballots cast through
out the state were scratched Outside
of Denver and Pueblo, Bryan and Taft
are running neck and neck on straight
ballots, with definite returns from no
point In Denver, Taft seems to lead.
In Pueblo, Bryan has the advantage.
1t is not likely that definite state
ments of results can be made before
late today.
Des Moines, Iowa, Nov. 4.-The in
complete returns received at 10 o'clock
last night indicate that Taft has car
ried Iowa by a plurality from 10000
to $4,000. This is a tremendous fall
ing off from the Roosevelt plurality Of
$4,000 of four years ago, but it rep
resents only slight falling off from
the normal plurality. The entire Re-
publican state ticket is elected prob
ably by about the same plurality
Governor A. B. Cummins probably car
ried the Republican senatorial primary
over Major j. E. Lacey by plurality
Of 10000 to $4,000, tremendous gain
from last June, when he was defeated
by Allison by 1000.

Connecticut.

NOnncCIlCUC.
New Haven, Conn.,, Nov 4.-The Re-
publicans swept the state of Connec-
ttcut in yesterdays election fully as
complete, or little more SO, as four
years ago. Taft carrying the state by
more than 10000 plurality, and Con
gresham George L. Lilley. the Re-
publican candidate for governor, go
ing to Office by about $4,000 plurality
over Judge A. Heaton Robertson, his
opponent. All the five congressman
are Republicans by pluralities equal to
those of two years ago. The entire
Republican state ticket is elected, as
usual. while the general assembly Is
more strongly Republican than for q
good many years.
California.
San Francisco, Nov. 4.-Owing to
the slowness with which the returns
from California points nave been re-
ceived, 1t was difficult at 10 p. IN. to
make an estimate that would carry
accuracy and positiveness. II the
Taft figures maintain the ratio of gain
as indicated in 109 scattering pre-
cincts. California will go Republican
by $4,000.
At the Republican state central com
mittee last night. it was positively
declared that the state had gone for
Taft and Sherman by handsome ma.
1ortty. The managers OF the Demo
cratic state campaign have practically
conceded the defeat of Bryan in this
state.
In San Francisco, partial returns
from Sc precincts out Of 300 give Taft
1880; Bryan. 978; Debs. l44
Ohio.
Cincinnatifi Ohio, Nov. 4.-Notwith-
standing the meagerness of the early
returns from Ohio. they seemed to
give fair indication OF the result,
although positive statement OF plu-
lality was impossible. All sections
Of the state, both city and country,
were included in the first returns and
the same ratio continued would give
a plurality for Taft for president in
his home state of anywhere from
100000 up. Cleveland. Cincinnati,
Toledo and Dayton are included In
the first reports and in all the Taft
vote was very heavy.
The figures continued to fall as the
additional returns came in later In
the night and at ! O'Clock it seemed
that Taft would have slightly more
than normal Republican plurality
of close to $4,000, while Harris, Re
publican, for governor, was defeated.
The figures at that hour were for the
election OF Harmon, Democrat, by
over $4,000.

Rheumatism Recipe.

A Well-known authority on Rheuma-
tism gives the following valuable
though simple and harmless, prescrip-
ton, which any one can easily prepare
at home;
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
Mix by shaking we'll in bottle, and
take teaspoonful after each meal and
at bedtime
He states that the ingredients can
be obtained from any good prescrip-
ton pharmacy at small cost, and, being
of vegetable extraction, are harmless
to take.
This pleasant mixture, if taken reg
ularly for few days, is said to over
come almost any case of rheumatism.
The pain and swelling, if any, dimin-
ishes with each dose, until permanent
results are obtained, and without in
juring the stomach. While there are
many so-called Rheumatism remedies,
patent medicines, ETC., some of which
do give relief, few really give perma-
nent results, and the above will, no
dubt, be greatly appreciated by many
sufferers here at this time.
Inquiry at the drug stores of this
neighborhood ELECTS the information
that these drugs are harmless and can
be bought separately, or the druggists
here will mix the prescription for our
readers if asked to.
