ayers insisted chat he would also
have the five votes of South Dakota,
as yet credited TO Taft.

but the figures we're not yet conclu-
slve and Wyoming remained in the
Taft column, Taft being credited with
20 electoral votes.

 He will conclude tomorrow.
 MT. Kern declared that many mem bers of the Illinois legislature, includ- ing Senator Holstaw and Charles A. White had received large sums about the time that money in the interest of Lorimer is alleged to have been used.
 He also declared 1t suspicious that so many members of the legislature hired safety deposit boxes soon after the Lorimer election.
 Senator Kern contended that Charles A. White, the democratic member of the House whose confession was the basis of the double Lorimer inquiry, was not as black a he had been pie tured
 MT Kern undertook to show White s connection with Lorimer and Browne declaring 1t appeared that Browne had promised White q federal place and had actually obtained a place in Cook coun- ty for him through Borimer.

 IS HELD FOR JURY.
Charged With Sending Im- proper Matter Through
 Mails-All0wed Bond

Augusta, Ga, June 7-Thomas E. Watt son. former populist leader and presi- dential candidate, was bound over unde. $500 bond here for sending obscene matter through the mails. He was arrested by federal authorities last week. He was taken before the United States commits siorer The matter objected to was con .tained in an article Tn. Watsons ,Maga- zine attacking the heirachy of the Ro- man church.
 MT. Watson appeared in his own de- fense at the hearing today while district attorney Alderman represented the gov- ernment The defendant argued. in pre- senting his case that if there were suf- fieient ground for swearing out war rant in the case it should have been is- sued against the publishing company which issues his magazine and not against himself personally. The moti~s which prompted him to print the article containing the alleged objectionable mat . ter. Watson asserted. was the "uplift of mankind' and he also set up as a de- fense the alleged fact that the objection- able matter had been copied from a book which had been copyrighted by the gov ernment.
 District Attorney Alderman contended, in his argument, that the United States supreme court decisions do not take cog nizance of the motive in sending ob- scene matter through the mail and as to Watson's claim that he copied from a copyrighted book, he stated that "any- one can get copyright for anything by establishing the fact that he is the hu- thor
