Iowa.
Iowa.


De: Moines, Iowa, Nov. 4-The in
complete returns received at 10 o'clock
last night indicate that Taft has car
ried Iowa by plurality from 100000
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 ]. E. Lacey by a plurality
of 100000 to $4,000, tremendous gain
from last June, when he was defeated
by Allison by 1000.
The indications are that the entire
delegtion in congress will be Republi-
can, a gain of one over two years ago.
In Des Moines there was a tremend-
Gus loss of votes to the Republicans,
due to the large labor vote for Bryan.
Hull, in the Seventh district, was
elected by reduced plurality.
Connecticut.
New Haven, Conn.,, Nov. 4-The Re-
publicans swept the state of Connec-
ticut 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 a
good many years.

dependent ticket against Albert T..
Twesme, the primary m n e :.
Twesme's plurality is estimated at
about 15O
Chairman Edmunds of the Republi-
can state central committee, says
Taft will have at least $4,000 plu-
rality in the state, while Chairman
Manson of the Democratic state COM
mittee will not concede defeat by
more than $4,000 from the returns re-
ceived by him.
New Hampshire.
Concord, N. H., Nov. 4-Up to mid
night only about two-fifths of the
vote of New Hampshire had been
counted and returned, but the indica-
lions were that Taft had carried the
state by about 10000 plurality.
Henry b. Quinby, Republican candi-
date for governor, will probably have
1000 plurality, but as majority is
required to elect, the vote of the
minor parties may cut an appreciate
figure in determining the result.
The legislature will be strongly Re-
publican in both houses and the two
Republican congressman were re-
elected.
Reno, New, Nov. 4-Indications at
1920 p. m. were that Bryan will
carry the state by a substantial ma
jority.
Oklahoma.
Guthrie, Okla, Nov. 4.-Oklahoma
has continued loyal to the Democratic
party but the majority has been re-
duced materially and Bryan's lead is
estimated at only $4,000. The five
members of congress, four Democrats
and one Republican, have been re-
elected. The legislature is two-thirds
Democratic, insuring their reelection
of United States Senator Thomas P.
Gore, the blind senator.
Pennsylvania.
Philadelphia, Nov AT 1 a. m.
with IL counties still to hear from,
the indications are that Taft has car
ried Pennsylvania by a plurality that
will be nearer 100000 than 100000.
The returns received show consider
able falling off in every county with
the exception Of two. A heavy vote
was polled throughout the state,
owing principally to the many warm
contests in the legislative districts.
The Republicans hold their own in
the congressional districts, If they do
not increase their representation.
There is practically no change in
the Republican representation in the
legislature.
In Philadelphia the national ticket
carried the city by about 125,000 plu-
rality The entire ticket S elected by
a large plurality.
Kentucky.
Louisville, KY, Nov. 4.-Bryan's plu-
rality in Kentuck of $4,000, and nine,
and possibly ten, Democratic con-
gressmen elected-a Republican loss
of two seats-this is the story of the
election in Kentucky at the close of a
day which was marked by the polling
of the largest vote in the history of
the state. Practically complete re
turns from 60 of the 119 counties in
the state give Bryan a plurality of
1907.

A Sudden Transition.

Little Willie Jones, while picking
blackberries, was stung on the calf
his leg by poisonous insect. By
bedtime his leg was so swollen that
his mother began to be very much
worried, so the first thing the next
morning she went to his room to find
out if the swelling had gone down.
"How is your leg, SOM" she in
quired.
Come, looR-it's swelled way up"
he answered proudly. my calf has

in slowly, but indications point to a
complete victory for the Democratic
state ticket and election of Demo
crate presidential electors. In Mis-
soula, three precincts which four
years ago were heavily Republican,
gave Bryan a plurality of 25 per cent.
Nebraska.
Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 4.-Nebraska
probably has gone Democratic by
decisive plurality, with not enough re-
turns on governor on which to make
an estimate. Bryan has made slight
gains in country precincts, and in the
cities the Democratic gain is heavy.
Bryan carried Lincoln by 600, over
turning normal Republican plurality
of 1000.
Wisconsin.
Milwaukee, Nov. 4-The Republi-
victorious in Wisconsin yesterday by
plurality estimated at $4,000. The
congressional delegation, with one
district to hear from, probably will
remain about the same as two years
ago, nine Republicans and two Demo
Gratis. The legislature, which will
elect United States senator to sue
coed Isaac Stephenson, will be over
whelmingly Republican, the returns
indicating the election of 70 Repub-
licans, Fl Democrats and Social
Democrats in the assembly, and 81
Republicans, Democrats and 2 So
cial Democrats in the senate.
While Taft carried the city of Mil
waukee by about 1,500, Awkward
(Dem.) for governor led Davidson
(Rep.) by about 1900 votes.

ANOTHER BOMB.
The Twenty-fourth That Has Been
Hurled at Gambling Houses.

Chicago, Oct. 31.-Another bomb, the
twenty-fourth in the series which has
been directed against alleged gambling
resorts, was exploded here last night
in the rear of saloon owned by F. F.
Brennan in Cottage Grove avenue.
Windows were shattered and the
whole neighborhood was startled by
the explosion. For months the police
and public have been mystified by the
bomb hurler, who in spite of all sorts
of ruses and traps laid to catch him
has invariably escaped.

San Francisco, Nov 4.-Owing to
the slowness with which the returns
from California points nave been re-
ceived, it was difficult at 10 p. m. to
make an estimate that would carry
accuracy and positiveness. If the
Taft figures maintain the ratio of gain
as indicated in 100 scattering pre-
cincts, California will go Republican
by 10000.
At the Republican state central COM
mittee last night, it was positively
declared that the state had gone for
Taft and Sherman by a handsome ma
jority. 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 800 give Taft
1850; Bryan, 97S; Debs, IA.
Ohio.
Cincinnatifi Ohio, Nov. 4.-Notwith-
standing the meagerness of the early
returns from Ohio, they seemed to
give a fair indication of the result
although a positive statement of plu-
rality 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 fer 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 1 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.
Colorado.
Denver, Nov. 4.-With thousands of
scratched ballots yet to be counted,
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.
1t s estimated that more than 80
per 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.
Maine.
Portland, Me-, Nov. 4.-Taft and
Sherman were given plurality of
$4,000 in Maine yesterday, out of a
total vote for the two leading parties
of 100000. Bryan's vote was esti-
mated at 35,725; Taft's, 67,203. The
vote of both parties was below the
average of the past SO years, while
the plurality was about 5000 in ex-
cess of the average.

At the home of MT and Mrs William f. Gilbert, Friday evening, a birthday party was held in honor of their daugh-. ter, Miss Ruth Gilbert. Elt was indeed an enjoyable affair long to remem- bered by her friends. Miss Elsie Gill bert presided at the piano. A quartet composed of Miss E. Madge Peck, Miss Florence Winton, John Gilbert and Earle Peck rendered various selections. They were encored repeatedly. During the entertainment whist was played. The winners were: Ladies' first, Miss Ruth Pierce, box of stationery; gen. 'tlemen's first, William Mo Arthur, box of handkerchiefs; Earle Peck, con- solation prize, a rattle box. At lo.5o bountiful refreshments were served. Dancing and selections and various other games took up the better halt|of the evening. George McArthur proved to be quite an adept in humorous stor- ies. Miss Gilbert was the recipient of many handsome gifts among which were locket and chain, $5 gold piece, watch chain, china, handkerchlets, books, pictures, box of stationery and sweetmeats. At 3 o'clock the guests departed experimenting the hostess on her splendid achievement and wishing her many more such days.

of the On ckasaw nation. i. \. Cot.
ncr, ap romincut lawyer aud real
estate man of this city in speaking
of these cases said yesterday: "All

saw nation nearly 1000 contest
suits. these were more important

were not allowed TO be filed unless

the lands of this nation were more

There will be no further contests
instituted in the Chickasaw and
Choctaw nations because the treaty
with these two nations and the Unit

1902, provided that all citizens
should have the right to file and
institute contest proceedings during
twelve months following their APPROX

son has enrolled since March I. 1907;
that being the date upon which the
rolls were finally closed by act oi
