HOW MANY NEGROES?

The politicians are still on the anx-

population in the United States next
year. The Nashville and the Ten
nessee people are asking them
selves, will the loyal Negroes who
stood by the Taft band wagon be
given places? A prominent republican

er OF not there would be any Negro
enumerators, and he replied Il do
not know. 1t is hard to say what
Taft is going to do, he is almost as
hard problem as his predecessor,
although on a different scale, for he
is doing what he said he would not

his party to do. There will. be lots
of jobs to be given out if only for a

racing up the street and summoned

HANGS HIMSELF IN JAIL
Man Who Shot Senator SomerviIIe

Commits Suicide.
John Hayner, who shot and seri-
ous1y wounded former Senator George
w. Scmerville at Sleepy Eye,
hanged himself in the Brown
county Jail at New Ulm and was
found swinging dead from the bars of
his cell door. Hayner had carefully
torn his blanket into strips, fashion
ing rope strong enough to bear his
weight, and then swung himself into
eternity.
Prior to taking his life Hayner, in
discussing the shooting of Somerville,
declared that he was sitting, down in
a chair in Somerville's office when he
fred the shots at the lawyer and did
so because SomerVjlle had risen from
his chair and advanced in a threaten
ing manner, holding an Office ruler in
his hands. 1t was, he said, to repel
this attack, that he fired the shots.
Hayner said that the real estate
deal with Somerville, in which he
thought he had been cheated, was the
exchange of ITO acres of land in Dent
county, Mo-, for property in Sleepy
Eye. He said that Somerville assured
him that seventy acres were under
the pillow and 100 acres we'll timbered
&c the value of the land was $4,000
These representations, Hayner said,
were not true and he tried to engage
counsel to bring suit against Somer-
