BET AUTOMOBILES
ON THE ELECTION
EDDYv1LLE MEN WAGER COSTLY
CARS ON SENATORIAL
CONTEST.

Eddyville, May 27. Especially =
Considerable excitement was created
in the little city last even
Ing when ]. A. Lafferty,
owner Of the Eddyville stone quar-
r1es, and an enthusiastic Cummins
supporter, and Postmaster w H. De
Long, leader of the Allison faction
here, wagered their automobiles on
the result of the senatorial contest in
the coming primary election Mr. Laf-
ferty made the challenge, which was
promptly accepted by. Mr.. De Long.
They went before notary and made
out bills of sale, which were placed in
escro pending the official count. The
cars are of the. same make, practical
ly new, and cost between $70O and
$500 each. In speaking Of the matter
Colonel Lafferty said, IT'S shame TO
take his machine, but man with nc
more judgment about betting than
De Long has, is no fit person to run
an aItomobile," Mr, De Long has diff
ferent IDEAS, however, and said
"Lafferty will take his out in walking
after June I'd. However, if Mr.. Cum
minis is nominated, will take my
medicine and walk, but if he succeeds
in foisting his Canadian reciprocity
treaty and tariff revision ideas in
congress, won't be lonesome, for
there will be plenty of other people
walking in short time"
