Practically the only issue in the
Nebraska municipal elections was the
question of saloon license, and returns
from fifty towns and villages in east
ern and central sections Of the state
show no marked change from year
ago. the advantage, If anything, being

victory for the dry" element was the
capture of Havelock, the Burlington
railroad shop town, outside of Lincoln

victory at Havelock is the return of

was waged. Most of the larger towns

CHICAGO.

R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review Of
Chicago trade says:
Business generally exhibits .
prompt response to the seasonable
weather. Payments through the
banks, deposits and loans, are seen to
be far above all previous records, q
convincing testimonial,to improve ac-
tivity in the leading industries and IN
vestments. Movements have become
remarkably extended In heavy materi-
ais, raw supplies and factory outputs.
but those of grain, live stock and pro-
visions show declines. Forwardings OF
general merchandise to the interior
exceed those Of a year ago.
High prices still affect the markets
for the principal foodstuffs and buy
ers operate cautiously. Farm reports
reflect gratifying progress in seeding,
and the anxiety to complete spring
work soon accounts for smaller crop
marketings at this time.
Heavy deliveries indicate that
manufacturers increase outputs OF ma
chinery, implements, hardware, leath-
er and brass and woodwork. The mar
ket for factory needs reflect strong
buying against future consumption,
and hides recovered cent. of the re-
cent decline. Building operations here
and at interior points compare favor
ably in the aggregate with this time
last year and the eagerness OF buyers
causes firmer prices.
Despite the largely increased re-
sources OF the banks the discount rate
for choice commercial paper is held
firmly at 41s05 per cent.

coed those of the corresponding week

WET" victories were recorded Tues
day In almost every important center
of Illinois where the saloon question
was at issue. In the cherished dry"
strongholds of Rockford. Decatur, De
kalb, Dixon, Nation, Keithsburg,
Shelbyville and long list of other
local option towns the anti.saloon
forces were routed. In the saloon
towns where the "drys" made their
hardest fights Springfield, Danville,
Aurora, Bloomington. Woodstock, Free
port and others-the "wets" carried
the day, in many cases by larger ma.
1orities than they obtained two years
ago. The most important victories
gained by the .'drys" were at Mon
mouth and Canton, where the saloons
were voted out. In the light of the
election returns, Illinois plainly has
reversed itself on the saloon question
since two years ago. In all parts of
the State the pendulum swing from
the dry to the wet sentiment has made
itself manifest.

wi.constn.


While on the face of the early re.
turns neither the liquor people nor the
drys had much to boast of, neither
gaining any considerable new. ground.
the drys carried the fight into new ter
ritory and into large cities, compelling
the vets to put up strong fights to hold
their own. In Milwaukee Social Dem.
ocrats made clean sweep and elected
Emil Seidel Mayor by a plurality of
more than 5000, seven Aldermen-at-
large and carried fourteen wards. The
Socialists will control the city for the
next two years. Seidels plurality is
the largest of any party in similar
contest in the history of the city. The
feature of the campaign this spring
was that the platforms of the three
parties we're essentially the same, the
Democratic and the Republican parties
espousing Social Democratic princi-
pies like. the referendum, the initia.
tive, the recall and home rule for Mil
waukee, all four of which were first
espoused by the Socialists. at which
time they were derided by the other
parties.

Michigan.

In Michigan the total vote gives
maiorities for vets of 1852 and
for "drys" of 1888, forcing "drys' to
abandon plan to force vote on state
wide prohibition. Complete returns
on the local option election held in
thirty-six counties show that twenty
counties out of the thirty-six have de.
creed the abolition of the saloon for
two years. while sixteen repudiated
local option and declared for the H.
censed saloon. Two hundred and
eighty-two thirst parlors. of the 1,161
whose existence depended on the vote,
were put out of business. The map Of
Michigan shows forty-three counties OF
the state in the wet column and
forty where the saloon must go. 1t is
this fact which satisfies the VETS
that Michigan will never go totally
dry" and which causes them to claim
Tuesdays election to themselves. The
dry" counties are scattered over the
lower peninsula, the upper being en-
tirely wet"

By Leased Wire to The Tribune
COLUMBUS, o., July 23.-The van
guard of Ohio Republicans who will
nominate a candidate for governor at
the Republican convention here next
week to oppose Governor Judson Har-
mon at the polls in Ohio are arriving on
the ground.
The slate is now being framed but
a vacant place will be left opposite
tho CORD governor until next week.
One of the following men will be
chosen to lead the Republican party in
the state against Governor Harmon:
Judge o. Britt Brown of Dayton;
Congressman Nicholas Longworth, Gin
cinnati; Judge eynolds R. Kinkaid To-
ledo Former Secretary of the Interior
James II. Garfield; Judge A. NJ. Sum
mers.
Judge Kinkaid issued statement
in Toledo today in which he declared
positively that he would not be can
didate for the gubernatorial nomination.
AS he has been looked upon as the
choice of the administration and the
choice of Colonel Theodore Roosevelt,
some of the leaders are seriously con
sidering the advisabilty of placing his
name before the convention despite his
personal wishes.
Congressman Longworth is looked
upon as sort of last hope. His name
will be sprung to break a deadlock.
"Boss'' Pulls for Brown.
George B. Cox. "bossp of Cincin-
natl, arrived this afternoon and i'm
mediately commenced building fences
and pulling strings in favor OF his can
didate, Judge Brown of Dayton.
Cox is taking, advantage of every
Kirley OF the board of public works
to turn over the votes of Defiance
county and the Fifth congressional dis
trict, and is holding this as club over
Judge Summers, to force him out OF
the race.
Wade Ellis, mouthpiece Of the ad-
ministration in Ohio, rushed away TO
Cincinnati for a series of conferences
when the word came from Toledo that
Judge Knkaid refused to make the
race.
Something unseen has happened in
the past twenty-four hours TO put
brand new complexion on Ohio state
politics. What caused Judge Kinkaid
to make a sudden change of front can
only be guessed at,
1t is pretty shrewdly guessed that
Kinkaid withdrew because he would
have to promise to support Chairman
William +. Brown for reelection as
chairman of the state committee.
Brown is from Toledo, and Kinkaid IS
statement is taken TO mean that the
nomination must come to him with no
strings attached to it. The Democrats
are enjoying the situation immensely
They look upon the tangled state OF
Republican affairs as q good omen.
