 Contests in Many States.
 While the people of a few of the states have indicated their senatorial preference through direct primary. there are bitter contests being carried on in the majority of the states where the senatorial vacancies occur. New York is a fair sample. It has been many years since the Democratic par- ty of the Empire state has had mem Der in the upper house of congress and there are numerous aspirants 10 the seat which will be vacated by Chauncey NJ, Depew They include Edward M. Shepard, William F. Since. han, Martin w. Littleton and a host of others.
 in New Jersey Governor Wilson has taken a hand in the fray. and is urg. ing the election of James k. Maritime to succeed Senator Kean. James Smith ofHNewark however, is making a strong fight.
 In Massachusetts there is a fight to depose Henry Cabot Lodge. Maine will elect a Democrat to succeed the veteran Eugene Hale The most likely candidate is Charles F. Johnson of Waterville. The successor to Sen ator Aldrich of Rhode Island, who has announced that he will retire with the expiration of his term, will probably be Henry F. Lippitt. In Connecticut George P.

HUNTERS FIGHT WARDENS
One "Potter" Is Believed to Have Been Shot Near OsceoIa Ark,
 and Feud Is Growing Acute.

Osceola, Ark, Jan. 3.-From. their illegal harvest of wild ducks and geese, the pothunters of Big lake have turned their repeating shotguns upon deputy game wardens. according to news of a battle between swamp an gels' and pursuing officials, which has reached Osceola.
 The fight between patrols in the en- ploy of the Big Lake Hunting and Fishing club and the poachers is the climax to the indictment of A mem bers. of the club on charges of violat- ing the state law prohibiting hunting and fishing by non-residents.
 Club scouts gave chase to the invad- CTS in boats and volley after volley was exchanged before the swamp an- gels' finally escaped in the marshes, which at this season are blanketed with dense undergrowth of reeds and offer an almost inaccessible hid ing place.
 The deputies say one of the pot hunters was seen to fall to the bot tom of his boat, but he was hurried beyond the reach of his pursuers by his companions. Others are believed to have been slightly wounded None of the pursuing forces was injured
 The present feud resembles in many features that which caused the famous Reelfoot lake tragedy across the river. Since that time many of the citizens of the Reelfoot section have removed to the vicinity of Big lake.

"A bond issue of $4,000 will be

The bonds shall have not less

authorizing $4,000 bond issue, but
the suspension of the Nye & Orms-

suited in the loss of about 100000
of the county's funds. Hence the
depleted condition of the treasury

cage was in active operation. Sew

Still he was calm and collected.
But his chum was still below. He
ventured down for the third time,
carried his chum and placed him
on the cage. But young Murphy
overcome by smoke and exhausted
from toiling, fell from the cage
and was mangled and crushed into
eternity.

Denver will soon vote on a commits
sion form of government; and it is be-
lieved it will carry. Organized labor in
Denver will be strongly for it; and by
gaining recognition at this time it was
argued that organized labor could gain
sufficient recognition to elect a man
from its ranks a member of the commits
sion. This was the two-fold purpose of
the league in referring the light ordi-
nance. The cost of referring the srdi-
nance is very small when divided among
60 members, and the league referred
the ordinance with such ease that the
general public could not but believe that
the names might be forged, and the
newspapers spread the story broadcast
to their readers.
A thorough investigation is now on by
the Denver Trades Assembly, and if any
OF its members are guilty of the charges
they should not be spared
