Jan. 14.-1'he senate accepted a
report OF the special committee ap-
pointed to investigate the senatorial
contest case of Keane VS.. Kerns,
recommending that the contest be
dismissed. The principals, Joseph
P. Keane, republican, and Abner G.
Kerns, democratic senator from Sho-
shone county, reside at Wallace.
Keane claimed larger vote in the
county, which was not shown, he
says, because ballots marked with
cross at the head Of the republican
ticket and on which his name was
scratched and Kern's name on the
other ticket not scratched, were not
counted for him, while they should
have been.

These are lively times in Wash

Mr.. Roosevelt is in fine fighting

Wednesday he rose at four o'clock

a country hotel, delivered speech
to a crowd that had gotten wind of
the Paul Revere business and re-
turned to the White House and
was able to take his dinner at the
table as usual. Lately he, the
president has been prescribing
riding tests for the officers in the
army and the navy and he has
allowed three days for the per-
formance of the ride which he
made in seventeen hours. He did
it probably by way of example,

in the upper h puse of congress by

there was grou nd for this antici-
patton, not on dared to publicly
justify it, and, when the result was
announced, it showed a solid party
majority for Hepburn.
