TANNER NOW
 LEADS STUBBINS

The official returns are not all in as yet. but the precincts to be heard from will not make any material change in the standing of the candi- dates. The only precinct of import. ance not reported is Craig on Prince of Wales island. The Socialists will likely have the largest vote there when the returns come in. The returns from Sulzer were received yesterday but brought no change in the Shoup- Reck race for position in the legisla- ture, as neither of them received a vote in the precinct.
 Stubbins who was in the lead on the non-partisan ticket by one vote, drops into second place with Tanner leading by the same margin. The vote of sulzer increases Tanner to S4S; Stubbins, SAT; Shoup the low man on the ticket has 626, while Reck. the high Progressive, has 596. Appended is the vote of sulzer.

and was the cause of two changes
in Texas statutes during his long
and remarkable legal fight against
the charge of murder.
Oats fight for life was made all
the more remarkable by the fact
that every one of his seven juries
found him guilty of murder and six
OF them condemned him to death.
The other jury, being unable to
agree over a penalty, caused q mis-
trial. although declaring the negro's
guilt. Technicalities and at times
more serious legal errors have been
used repeatedly to secure new trials
for Oats. The sixth trial was de-

maker, the 131-year-old Blackfoot
Indian from Glacier reservation, is
in Chicago to see the United States
land show. Chief Firemaker is the
oldest human being in the world,
having been born in the region now
known as Glacier National Park in
1891, according to well authenti-
Gated tradition.
The big chief was a stalwart
young brave of eighteen at the time
of George Washington's death in
1893. He was the first red man
from the far West to visit the great
White Father, and his journey to
the national capital when President
Jefferson was in the White House
was a memorable event in his life.
He Is regarded in his tribe as an
oracle.
At the time of his birth, so the
Indian legend goes, the father of all
spirits, standing on mountain.
shot an arrow near his fathers te-
pee. The prophecy, as interpreted
by the medicine men, is that he
would live forever and assist the
gods in their councils. The aged
Indian is a chieftain of his tribe.
and in his younger days was a great
huntsman. He has killed 5000
buffalo.
