COLE THE STAR TWIRLER
Crandall a Close Second, While
Matty Makes Fine Record.

King Cole, the phenomenal young tWirl-
er of the Chicago Cubs, carried off the
pitching honors of the National League,
according to the official records Of the
pitchers While Brennan. of Phila delphia
Burke of Boston, and Philippe, of Pitts
burg. maintained higher averages. none OF
these three pitched more than FIVE complete

pitched in 33 games. q of which he COM
pleted. He won 20 and lost only 4. Next
in order was Otis Crandall, of the Giants.
who won Il and lost 4.
The mighty Mathewson pressed both of
these stars hard for honors, and another
brilliant sea sons record is credited to him.
He won more games than any other pitcher
in the league, q victories being chalked up
against his name. along with 9 defeats.
His nearest rival in victories was Mordecai
Brown, of the Cubs, who won IS games but
lost IA More hits were made off Mathew
sons delivery than off that of any other
pitcher. 292 being registered in all.
With the exception of Rucker Of Brook
lyn, who twirled $50 innings, Mathewson.
who pitched 31S was in class by himself,
while the number of times at bat against
Matty was 1,179 which was more than against
any other twirler. An even hundred runs
were made while Mathewson was in the
toX but the average number scored nine
inning game was only 2.S3. This was the
lowest average maintained by any pitcher
with the exception of Cole. of Chicago, with
24G. and Overall, of Chicago with 2.75.
Bugs Raymond was the only New York
pitcher who did not win more than half of
the games he pitched.

Election Figures.

ON the first page of this weeks is
sue will be found an abstract of the
vote cast in Highland county at the
recent election. In the table will also
be found the vote cast for Harris and
Harmon in 1905 which will he impor-
tant for those who desire to make
comparisons.
For those who delight in figuring
out how it happened this table will
be very interesting.
Among the many things 1t discloses
is the very light vote cast In this
county this fall. The total vote OF all
parties in 1908 was 8 200, while the to-
tai vote this fall is 7,l73, falling Off
Of l,027. A large part of this decrease
is, of course, due TO the mo Doodle
Agreement, which was in force this
year, but the general apathy among
the voters also accounts for a consid-
erable part of it.
Another interesting comparison
arises out Of the vote received by
Gov Harmon in 1908 and this year
In 1908 Harris carried this county by
1874 Harmon receiving 1927 votes. This
year Harmon received 3,574 votes and
carried the county by lS0. Thus it
will be seen that while Harmon lost
this county by 304 in 1908 and carried
it this year by lS0 he received this
year 253 less votes than two years ago.
While the total vote in the state
can not be secured at this time we
believe that 1t will show that while
Harmon carried the state by about
10000 more than he did two years
ago, that he did not receive as many
votes by several thousand as he did
at that time.
We have no doubt that when the
figures for the state are given out
that the defeat OF the Republican
state ticket this fall will be shown To
be due TO the decrease in the Repub-
lican vote rather than to Democratic
gains. While this will be but little
consolation TO the Republicans it will
show that this defeat was largely due
TO apathy in their own ranks and
should remove fears of future defeats
If the vote can be got out.

Declared Insane.

Judge Watts went over to Highland
Tuesday morning and held a lunacy
inquest on Scott Burton, Of that place.
Mr.. Burton's mind has been somewhat
deranged for some time. His chief
halluclnation seems to have been of a
warlike nature. He claimed in the
examination that he had been to war
and had been shot full of lead. He
also said that he recently went out to
his watermelon patch few days age
and shot about .l50 Indians who we're
stealing them. He was adjudged in
sane and taken to the asylum yester-
day by Sheriff McMullen. He had just
recovered from an attack of typhoid
fever, which it is believed caused his
insanity.
