city and county for the first time, and
the Democrats have elected the Legis-
lature and all of the Congressman eX-
cept possibly one whose fateis in doubt.

Central States For Taft.

Ohio. Indiana and Illinois, the great
central states. with an aggregate or
sixty-ave electoral votes have gone
Republican despite the fight made to
bring them into the Democratic col
umn. The SUCCESS Of Mr. Taft in these
states. considered vitality necessary to
his election, has carried with it the
success of the Republican state tick
cts. except in Ohio, where Judson Har-
mon. Democrat, is elected governor by
10000.
Republican hopes of carrying Ken
lucky proved vain in spite OF the vic
tory Of Wilson, Republican, in the
eubernatorial contest last year The
greater part Of the states congress
sional delegation will be Democrats.
The Pacific coast states, California.
Washington and Oregon, have given
their votes to the Republican candi-
date. but Neva Ia. which voted against
Parker in 1904. gave its votes this year
to BRYAN. Montana, the Dakotas and
Minnesota are again Republican, but
Governor JOhnson's personal popular
itv has sufTiced to seat him again in
the glbernatoIial chair of the North
Star state. Wisconsin. Michigan, Iowa
and in fact the entire west and north
west are Republican. but, as noted
above. by lowered majOrities.
The South Still Solid.
The solid south"is still solidly Dem
ocratic. Mr.. Bryan polling the usual
large majorities. Only in Maryland
has the Republican party made serious
inroads on the Democratic vote and
NAV have carried the state. Della
ware. about which some doubt was
expressed. has gone Republican. The
/ New England states have gone for
Taft and have elected Republican gov
errors. but The vote in Rhode Island
where the Democrats made a strong
fight. is very close. In Massachusetts
the independence party candidate for
governor made a good showing, though
running far behind the vote of Thomas
L. Hisgen last year.
New York city has been carried by
Taft by about 10000, but Chanler

THE DUBUQUE
| INJUNCTION SUIT
Motion to Dissolve Set for Tomorrow,
But Is Not Likely to Be Reach
ed in Circuit Court.

According to the notice served on
The attorneys for Dubuque at the time,
the attorneys for President Holland
and the Three-Eye league will appear
in the circuit court tomorrow morning
and press the motion to dissolve the
injunction. This motion was filed two
weeks ago, together with answers and
afidavits TO show the position of Hol-
land and the other clubs of the league
relative to the Dubuque matter.
1t is not likely, however, that Judge
Ramsay, who is now presiding in the
circuit court, will take the matter up
tomorrow The damage suit of Math-
aw Coburn against the Moline, East
Moline G. Watertown Railway com.
pany. which is on trial this week. will
probably not be concluded today, and
may not be given to the jury until
late tomorrow. Furthermore, Judge
Ramsay is not familiar with the base
ball litigation, and would likely no
| care to take it up now, in view of the
| fact that Judge Graves, who has here
tofore heard the matter, is to return
| in few weeks to preside here again
Thus it will in all probability be somt
weeks before the baseball suit is TAX
en- up in court.
