Enemy is Routed.

Complete and emphatic was the
triumph of the scott-Carrigan people
at the primary election in this coun-
ty yesterday afternoon. although
the results were reduced greatly by
the domination of the Hubbard exec
utive committee and election officers.
With a square deal Senator Scott,
Carrlgan and others would have re-
celved a majority of at least six
hundred.
Unfair methods were used and ev-
cry election outrage known to HUI
man intelligence were resorted 10 at
various places by men, who had
howled themselves hoarse with the
cry ITO down election corruption"
These brazenly used every endeavor
possible to keep legitimate voters
from voting. At some OF the pre-
cincts regularly appointed chaI-
lengers We're not permitted to serve.
In two city precincts alone rs
votes were thrown out. Election
commissioners and clerks caused
voters to spoil as many bal
lots rs they could and every device
OF human invention was resorted to
to prevent the people from saying
Notwithstanding the hypocritical
pretense of their big and brainy"
chief who wanted to ''let the pes
pie say" Ring rule Of the worst
and lowest type was the order of
the day with that crowd and it was
not only permitted by its leaders but
also wiuked at pleasingly by them.
The Hubbard crowds domination
of the county executive committee
was impresslyely repudiated, too.
The people tired of party perfdy and
firmly resolved to break up the col
fusion Hubbard leaders and the
Democratic county committee en-
tered into. That unholy compact,
so far as official color goes, was
eliminated with a vengeance. In.
deed, the Republican party of Har-
rison county had a wholesome house
cleaning.
Senator scott's triumph is OF
statewide significance, as Harrison
county with the party organization
in charge OF Hubbard men, had beer
regarded as Hubbard stronghold
The defeat of Hubbard and his or.
ganization refuted the idea and is q
significant endorsement OF Senator
Scott.
The people genrally are well sat
isfed with the results as capable
honest men have been nominated
and they will prove good winners.

NEW YORK CITY, June 90
Weather typical of the month OF
brides and roses attended the wedding
day of Miss Eleanor Butler Alexan-
der and Theodore Roosevelt. Jr.,
whose nuptials at the Fifth Avenue
Presbyterian church today promised
TO furnish one of the most notable
society events of the season
The promised attendance Of the
br!degroom's distinguished father so
stimulated popular interest in the
function that there was every promise
of record throngs in the vicinity OF
the church edlfce long before 4
O'clock, the hour set for the cere-
mcny. The church was beautifully
decorated. The ceremony was per.
formed by the Rev. Henry NJ. SAN
ders, a great uncle OF the bride. Fol-
lowing the ceremony there will be a
reception after which the newly mar
ried couple will go on honeymoon

appears that Hubbard through hi
henchmen seeks to perperate even I
greater political outrage by resort
Ing to theft.
As matter of fact the steal was
planned at the beginning Of the pres.
ent campaign. when a few members
OF the county committee secretly
prepared a list of election commits
sloners and bg force of number at
the committee meeting succeeded in
the face of strong protests against
such an arbitrary and .usurping pro-
ceeding in naming the election Of
ficers. With that accomplished
Hubbard and his henchmen were
content for the time being under the
belief that they would be able 10
complete the steal at the polls by re-
sorting to every known means to
keep Scott followers from voting
through intimidation and arbitrary
rulings, and as a browning touch of
the plot to reject the expression of
the people there was to be a coun-
ting out.
However, they counted their chick
ems before they We're Matched, as
shown by the fact that Republicans
always loyal to their party and sat
lsfled with fair and honest elections
succeeded in stationIng challengers
or watchers at the polls and the la.-
ter preventedfi by their presence at
the polls, the completion of the job
so neatly planned by the Hubbard
with Hubbard's saction.
But, that was not enough. Hub.
bard must rule or ruin. So, he has
his hencmen delay the canvass of the
returns on the ground of Irregular
tiles committed by his own support
crs aud appointees as election Off
GERS, Hard pressed Hubbard leaders
in the county name but single
voting place they want to inyesti-
gate. The purpose is doubtless to
throw that precinct out. thus chang
ing the results in such way as to |
affect the list of noml-
nees. They want to throw that pre-
cinct out so that the county will
have been carried Inv Hubbard. and |
Grille will have been defeated for the
legislature. They have voluntarily
given the plot away and their own
act condemns them.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
plot looks good to them, and that
they believe they can accomplish II,
they have the people to reckon with,
and 1t is safe to venture the asser-
ton at this iuncture that the people
will not permit them or Hubbard
himself to disfranchise them on this
occasion.
Doubtless, by Friday the Hubbard
part OF the old county committee
will find it wisest to declare the re-
suits as returned by commissioners
they appointed themselves and quit
their squawking over the fact that
the commissioners did not complete |
the steal as intended for them to do.
