kONOP ELECTEDlN
THE NINTH DISTRICT
KEWAUNEE DEMOCRAT RE.
CEIVES MAJORITY BY OFF,
GAL COUNT.
RECOUNT WILL BE ASKED
kuestermann to Contest Returns, but
is Expected to Lose in the End.
Will'Carry Contest to
Congress.

Mar1nette.-By vote of two to one
the board of canvassers of Marinette
county refused to allow the admission
of the contested thirty-four votes in
the Second precinct. thus giving the
election as Ninth district congress-
man to Thomas Konop, Kewaunee,
over Gustav Kuestermann, candidate
for reelection by majority of five
votes.
Konop will receive certificate of
election from the secretary of state.
The official returns for Marinette
county, including the returns from
Pembine, which were for time mis-
sing, but which we're included in the
039 and Konop 2,044. Konop's ma
jority in the entire district is Ave
votes.
AS preliminary move for a re-
count, Kuestermann's attorneys filed
a protest with the canvassers against
their action, and within thirty days
after the certificate of election Is is
sued to Mr.. Konop, will serve notice
for recount on him. The recount
will be only in certain precincts, not
the entire district.
All the figures adduced in the re-
count will be laid before the clerk
of the house of representatives. He
turns them over to the election COM
mittee of the house, which body will
finally determine who shall occupy
the congressional seat.
Konop heretofore was an almost
unknown quantity in Wisconsin poll
tics. Not one man in a hundred in
this district thought he had even the
most remote chance of election.
Kuestermann's postoffice appoint
ments, it Is believed, we're his undo
ing. In Green Bay, Oconto, and AL
gonna his appointments cost him valu-
able support and the belief is general
that this was the chief factor in his
defeat.
Konop was born on a farm in the
town of Franklin, Kewaunee county.
He attended the high school at Two
Rivers and then went to the UNIVERSE
ty of Nebraska. Returning to his ma
tive county he hung out his single
in Kewaunee and announced that he
was a lawyer. Before he was of age
he ran for county superintendent of
schools, but was defeated, due in a
large measure to his youth. Then he
ran for district attorney and was sue
cessful. For two successive terms
he was elected to this Office without
opposition.
Last spring Konop heard of some
dissatisfaction with Congressman
Kuestermann among the republicans,
and thought he had a chance. Even
democrats who wanted some one to
play the "goat" and fight the sup
posed losing battle for the Office had
little hope to offer him. Konop did
not have much money to put into the
campaign, but went out to the voters
with speeches, and made several hun
dred of them in the primary and gen
eral election campaign.

BANCROFT BEHIND TICKET
Plurality of Attorney General Low,
but Is Enough to Elect
Him.

Madison. election returns
from forty-two out of seventy-one
counties filed with the secretary of
state it appears that McGovern's p1ur-
sality, as well as those of the remain
der of the ticket, except Levi H. Ban
croft, will approximate $4,000.
Bancroft's margin will be about TO-
GOO, From the same figures it is
apparent that the amendment to the
state constitution increasing the sala-
ries of state representatives from
$500 to $1,000 was defeated, while
the other two amendments, eliminate
inc the state census and appropriate
ing funds for developing water power
and forests in the state, were carried.

CONTEST WOMEN'S ELECTION
Brief Field by Opponent Against
AdeIine Pratt, New Marinette
County Official.

Misunderstanding position SINH
lar to that Of Bancroft in relation
to his office, Emery D. Galineau,
through attorneys, filed papers before
the county canvassing board demand
ing that they do not canvass any
votes for Adeline B. Pratt, successful
candidate for register of deeds, on the
grounds that he was legally elected
by receiving the highest number of
votes for the candidates who can quail
ify.
A demand was also filed on the coun-
ty clerk, asking that he issue GER
tif1cate of election to Galineau. The
canvassing board found majority of
seventy-three for Miss Pratt. On the
strength Of these returns an election
certificate will probably be issued to
her.
Galineaus attorneys took this az
ton so as not to waive any rights.

by Coroner's tJurles.

Referring to a verdict recently
given by a coroner's Jury that death
was Caused by the medical evidence"
the British Medical Journal says:
THAT verdict may be added to those
cited In the report of the select COM
mittee on death certiflcation. where
DR.. Ogle is quoted as saying: One
verdict came before me little time
ago which was this: "a man died
from stone in the kidney, which stone
he swallowed when lying on gravel
path in state Of drunkenness" That
was given as a verdict. thought
some Joke had been played, and I
wrote down about 1t, and found 1t was
an absolute fact Another one Is
like this: Child three months old,
sound dead. but no evidence whether
born alive" These novel judy
ments recall that an upstate newspa-
6sr not long ago spoke Of taking a

Berlin Petiteion Rejected.

Madison.-The petition of the AL
len Lumber company, seeking better
conveniences for unloading lumber
from the tracks of the Milwaukee
road at Berlin, was dismissed by the
railroad commission. The petitioners
claimed that when cars were spotted
for unloading they were moved by
engines and the time thus consumed
was added to the cost of demurrage;
it was sought to secure an order eX-
tending the time before demurras sc
could be charged. The commission
finds that to grant this request would
in effect result in a rebate.
