Chicago, Nov. 5.--The Socialist

1904 in the three principal cities in
which Socialism is usually strongest.
In Chicago the Socialists polled 49,

and the most sanguine do not expect

votes for Debs.
Cincinnati and Cleveland, listed as

greatly decreased vote.
A. NJ. Simmons, OF the Socialist
national committee, said today that
Gompers influenced a number of la
borers who otherwise voted the So
cialIst ticket, to 80 to Bryan and
at the same time frightened many
conservative laboriug men into vot-
ing for Taft. He said the gains had
been made on the Pacific coast and
in Oklahoma and Texas towns and
in Missouri.
The total vote for Debs, it is es-
timated, will not exceed 100000.

The Recorders Postage Bill.

Unable to criticise in any way the
manner in which w. F. Scholz has con-
Quoted the Recorders office during the
past two years, few of his opponents
have circulated the report that his
postage bill is unnecessarily large.
The best and only necessary answer
to these charges is the following signed
AUDITORS STATEMENT.
l hereby certify the following to be
a correct statement of the postage
charged to the office of the County Re-
corder for the years 1907 and 1908, as
shown by the records in my Office.
1907.
Bill of Fred Salisbury, January
session 1907. Observation-Disclosures 8.47
Bills of w. F. Scholz, balance of
year. 1867. 51.O5
Bills of w. F. Scholz, stationery. $40
$62. e2
Bill Of w. F. Scholz, January ses-
sion 1908. $ 500
Total for two years. $67. .92
! The item of $3.04 for stationery was
charged in. the postage account by mis-
take, and should be deducted from the
total of $67.92, leaving a balance of
$64. So as the actual postage expense
for the years 1907 and 1908.
Of this amount $8.47 was paid to
Fred Salisbury for postage used in the
year 1906, leaving the balance for w.
F. Scholz s56O5 for the year 1907 and
up to the present time for 1908.
The amount charged for 1905 was
$25.85, and for 1906, $24.31.
Dated at Cresco, Iowa, this 26th
day of October, 1908.
C. L. TERRY,
County Auditor.
From the above it will be seen that
Scholz' entire postage for the two
years has been $56. .05, of which 1924
in postage still remains in the Office,
which will nearly or quite suffice for
the balance of the year. 1t will be OBJ
served that Mr.. Scholz predeces-
sor in Office, Mr.. Salisbury turned in
postage accounts of $58. .63 for his two
last years, showing that Scholz has
used less postage than did Salisbury.
The bills for s51.O5 for 1907. turned
in by Scholz may look little large,
but is easily accounted for by the fact
that it contains one order of $1,000
worth of stamped envelopes intended
for use in 1908 and also quantity of
postage stamps received by mailin pay
ment of recording fees and which were
used during the next year.
Moreover, every bill has been
examined and approved by the board of

with the work of the recorders Office
than outsiders.
If anyone questions the auditors
statement or any of the above explana-
tions, we will remind them that the
county records from which they are
taken are always open to the inspection
of the public.

The farmer candidate for the legisla-
ture, Hermann Kull, who has been
handicapped by illness during the early
days of his campaign, has been circu-
lating among his constituents for the
past few days and in the short time be-
tore election expects to meet large
number Of his supporters throughout
the county. He is meeting with
hearty reception by all his former
friends and is receiving assurances Of
support from many who did not sup
port him two years ago. The farmers
are especially kindly to Mr.. Kull for
they recognize in him a genuine COM
rade lone who has the stain of the soil
on his hands, who knows their aims,
their aspirations and their needs, and
one who is not connected with other
interests inimicable to their welfare,
or with designs upon their pocket
books,

Basket Ball.

In the basket ball game between
New Hampton and Cresco High
Schools at New Hampton, Oct. %, our
boys won by score of % to 20. 1t was
the first game of the season for both
teams and of course it was close and
fast game. The New Hampton people
turned out good for the game.
After the first half was played, which
was 20 minutes the score was 10 to 10,
but our boys were determined to have
the game and the second half was very
interesting but you can see the result of
the game. New Hampton's star play
er was Freeman Eakin who made Ia
out of the 20 points. The Cresco boys
made good showing for the first game
and we hope that when we play New
Hampton here Saturday night, Oct. 81,
that we will have large number of
rooters. This is not for the High school
pupils alone, but it is for everybod.
Come out and root for the C. H. S. and
help the boys win. Admission 25 and
Is cents.
The lineup of the boys who played
was as follows: Bert Thompson, cap
tain, and James Carman, forwards;
Merle Eaton, center; Ben Smith, Ar
thur Smith and Willie Wheeler, guards.
Thompson threw field baskets; Car
man field baskets and foul baskets;
Eaton field basket, Smith one field
basket and Wheeler l field basket.

ASSESSMENT BUREAU
Claims Of $4,000 Against City
for "ShaniIes."

The bureau Of assessment met
last night and heard parties interested
IN the proposed extension Of Jeffer-
son street to South Elm street and
the layout of Irion street. On the
first mentioned matter three Judges
appeared, Judge Root, counsel for the
schmitz family, claiming $4,000
dagames; Judge Cole, representing the
Bronsons, who want $4,000, and
Judge Peasley, for George Panne-
ton, Henry Wayand, f. N. Perry
and others, all Of whom are very
much in favor Of putting the street
through. Judge Peasley ridicu!ed the
idea Of his brother limbs of the law
IN putting in claims Of $4,000 for
"shanties" that are worth little or
nothing. This ended in a three cor
nered scrap that threatened to re-
suit in blows, but after a short time
the disputants cooled down and the
"scrappers' filed out on to Leayen-
worth street and HE'D themselves to
their homes with as little feeling over
the TOW as If the fight had never
taken place. John s. Neagle favored
the layout of Irion street, but all the
other property owners who appeared
had no use for 1t at this time. The
board went on tour of investiga-
CATION this afternoon and looked over
the situation in both streets, paying
particular attention to Jefferson
street.

going to attend either one of the two
performances in City hall next Tues
day, St Patrick's day, when the cast
OF characters, which has been dill

months the pretty and entertaining
Irish drama, Daniel O'Connell," pro-
duces that play. The programme of
entertainment, as arranged by the
committee Of the Ladies' Auxiliary,
under whose auspices the presenta-
ton will be given, is an excellent one
and meritorious in every respect. The
story of the play Is written around
the time of the emancipation In Ire
land, when Daniel O'Connell, the
young Irish agitator, succeeded In
giving to all Catholics, the right to
practice their religion, without fear
OF being shot down in their mountain
chapels by the red coated soldiery of
England. 1t tells of the desertion of
a pretty Irish girl, who had been mar
ried by an English tourist, because
Of some alleged technicality In the
Scotch law, under which the mar
riage rite was performed. 1t pictures
