APPEARS WINNER IN S. D.
RETURNS INDICATE lNDEPEN
DENT REPUBLICAN IL LEAD.
His Supporters Claim Victory by Plu
rality of From 5000
To 5000.

Sioux Falls, S. D., June 9.-Late re-
turns indicate that George w. Egan,
Independent Republican candidate for
governor, has won over Governor YES
sey, progressive candidate for renomi-
nation, and S. H. Elrod, stalwart can
didate.
Supporters of Egan today claim his
nomination by a plurality from 5000
to 5000.
Egan surprised both the stalwarts
and progressives by the manner his
vote kept up throughout the state.
instead of running strong only in part
of the state where he lives, he secured
a heavy vote in the most remote pre-
cincts and in the territory where it
was thought he would receive only a
scattering vote. He secured as heavy
proportionate vote as in territory
which was regarded safe for him.
The error of the progressives and
stalwarts was in not adjusting their
factional differences last winter when
peace overtures were made by the pro-
gressives to place only one ticket in
the field.
The outcome of the primaries on
congressman is yet in doubt Reports
are too meagre to form basis for
opinion as to who has won. The pro-
gressives claim their two candidates
for congressman have been nominated
while the stalwarts are hopeful that
Congressman Martin and Burke have
pulled through.

Madison-Divorces in Wisconsin are
increasing apparently at rapid rate.
1t is estimated authoritively that one
out of every eleven marriages in this
state results in a divorce. This esti-
mate is based on divorce statistics
compiled by DR.. J. G. Harper, Madison,
secretary of the Wisconsin state board
of health and vital statistics, for the
report of the board.
The principal cause of divorce is
cruelty. That was given as the cause
in 48.2 per cent of the divorces grant
ed during the last year for which sta
tistics are available. Desertion was
given in 1876 per cent of the cases,
drunkenness in 5.3 per cent, neglect
to provide maintenance in "A per cent,
and unfaithfulness in 2.6 per cent.
During the year in question the wife
was the complainant in about four out
of five cases.

Time Increases Discord.

Length of the marriage relationship
apparently increased instead of de-
creased martial discord in these cases,
as sixty divorces were granted after
a period of thirty years of married
life while only thirty-siX were granted
during the first year of married life.
The period between the first and
fourth years of married life seems,
however, to be the most turbulent, as
one-fifth of the divorces granted in
the year in question were to couples
who had reached that stage of their
relationship.
Two-thirds of the compliments were
native and one-third foreign born. In
43 per cent of the cases the parties
were without children.
In his compilation of divorce sta
tistics DR.. Harper says in part:
Prior to Oct 1, 1907, the date on
which the uniform law for the collec-
ton of vital statistics became opera
tive, no statistics of divorce had ever
been collected in Wisconsin. The fed
eral census bureau report shows that
the actual number of divorces in Wis
consin increased from 765 per year in
1887 to 1853 per year in 1906. The
number of divorces per 1000 mar
riages for each year has increased
from fifty-one in 1892 to ninety-one III

An Unnecessary Confession,

A hearty laugh was occasioned at
the Birmingham police court by pris-
oner who gave himself away in a very
delightful manner. The man was the
first on the list, and the charge against
him was merely one of being drunk
and disorderly. He stepped into the
dock, however, just at the moment
when the dock officer was reading out
a few Of the cases which were to come
before the court that morning, and a
guilty conscience apparently led him
to mistake these items fer list of his
previous convictions.
He stood passive enough while the
officer read out about dozen drunk
and disorderlies, but when he came to
one "shopbreaking" the prisoner ex-
claimed excitedly, THAT was eight
years ago, your honor" Everyone be-
gan to laugh, and the prisoner, realiz-
ing the blunder he had made, at first
looked very black indeed, but finally
saw the humorous side of the matter,
and broad smile spread over his face.
His blunder did not cost anything
