Congressman Will Secure 100 Votes

Gratis Vote for Him.

Corrected returns from the Ninth dis
trict received yesterday increase the ma
jority Of Congressman Smith to within
few votes OF 100. This conforms very
nearly to Judge Smiths own estimate late
Tuesday night, when his private advices
from each county in the district indicated
that his majority would be close to 1000,
and while the political stausuoians were
figuring around below the 1000 mark his
confidence did not waver and he refused
10 admit the probability OF a majority over
Cleveland OF as low as 800. A remarkable
feature OF the vote is the enormous num-
Der OF democrats who voted for Judge
Smith, not alone in Council Bluffs, but all
over the district Judge Smith estimates
that At least 1900 OF his votes were cast
BY democrats. In Council Bluffs many
democratic votes were found with but a
very small proportion or the party candi-
dates voted for and only one mark in the
republican column and that opposite the
name OF Judge Smith. One vote in the
First precinct OF the First ward had but
two marks on II, one cross opposite Por-
ters name and the other for smith.

CITY FARMS AND FARM TEACHING IN CITY
SCHOOLS TO SOLVE HIGH COST OF LIVING

COLUMBUS, O., April 2S.-By
recommending the establishment OF
municipality owned farms, the teach
ing of agriculture in the schools OF
the city and state, the establish
ment Of secondary agricultural col
leges with experiment farms In
each county and other radical
changes from the established order
of things, the members of the Ohio
state legislative committee, APP
pointed to investigate the high
prices of food, have sounded toe
sin calling Ohio's sister states to
action and struck at the same time
a blow against the food trust-the
hardest, by the way, which has yet
been delivered.
BY teaching the primary princi-
pies OF farming to children in the
schools and the establishing or az
ricultural colleges in each county,
the legislators feel a new interest
would be created in farming which
would have a tendency to attract
the young men of the country to
the farms instead of to the city.
The establishment of labor bu-
reau, to be conducted by the state.
for the sole purpose Of furnishing
labor for the farmers, Is another de-
cided innovation and one which the
farmers welcome. Every year the
farmers complain they are unable
to get men to help them in harvest
time, and every year about the
same time the cities are crowded
with unemployed.
Here is one significant statement
contained in the recommendations
of interest everywhere:
Storage is doing for food what
banking has done for money. Stan
dardizing of prices is thus made
possible. Governments have fixed
the interest on money and they
should fix the profits on food"
Domestic science taught both
boys and girls in the public schools
would, the legislators believe,
make them familiar with the first

Accustomed as he has been to
seeing large crowds at the even
ing meetings in other cities, J. B.
Combs, in charge of the state tubef-
culosis exhibit now on display in
the armory, is rather surprised
that so few persons are attending
the evening sessions here.
The meeting last night was under
the direction of the Woman's club
Of Spokane and not more than Top
persons were present to listen To
the excellent addresses delivered
by prominent women of this city.
During the day HOO children

The western wall Of mountains, and
Evan appeared to wheel his master
within. But the tough old fellow de
murred Half his nights had been
spent in the open air with only the
starry canopy for a tent. Now that
the end was near, he dreaded the crib
bed and cabined confinement of four
walls. So lantern was brought and
hung to the Tafters of the porch,
where its dim radiance could not in
terfere with that piercing gaze which
to the last roamed lovingly over the
mountain prospect.
One, two hours passed, and save for
the steady, harshly rhythmical
"crunch-crunch" of the stamps" the
town below was strangely quiet.
Every soul therein knew that the
mastermind in the hillside eyrie was
passing away; hushed were the usual
sounds of rude revelry and wide
OPEN license. 1t was felt to be
Hateful night for the town of Meleen.
At length Mr.. Carboy's task was
done. A table was carried on to the
porch; by lantern-light the will was
read to the testator, who turned his
eyes to meet those of the lawyer in
mute approval when the reading was
ended. Then, lifted and supported by
old Evan, he affixed his uncouth and
sprawling signature, the witnesses fol
lowed, and the deed was done which
bequeathed princely fortune and
royal revenue to-Whom?
Next morning Andrew Meleen was
found lifeless in bed, his gnarled and
