THE OFFICIAL COUNT
The State Executive Council Will
Meet Next Monday.

A week from today the state exc
cutive council at Des Moines will can
vass the official returns sent in by the
auditors of ninety-nine counties. The
law requires that this be done the
twentieth day after election.
Practically all of the auditors have
made their reports. If some of them
have not reported by Wednesday, the
secretary of state is authorized TO
send to the counties for the official
returns. There have been few instan-
ces when the executive council was
delayed in its work by failure of the
auditors to make returns, according
to w. c. Hayward, secretary of state.
The membership of the legislature
may not be accurately known until
the canvass is completed. In many
counties the vote was close. 1t is ex-
pected that several contests will be
filed. One already has been institut-
ed In Washington county.

Hon. SAINT Kirkpatrick is recover.

cent accident. He is still confined to
the house, but is getting along nicely
and will be about again in a few days
He feels very grateful for his election
and is anxious to get around over the
district to thank the boys personally.
In conversation with Chairman Clark
of the congressional committee he re-
marked that he was making short
work of the appointments in some
parts of the district. II. S. ROsecrans
will be the next postmaster of Oska-
loosa, and Tracy Osborne will receive
unhesitatingly recommend both these
appointments. Those two matters are
settled" he said. ..
Henry Rosecrans is one of the most
militant democrats of Proud Mahaska
as we'll as editor and owner of the
Oskaloosa Times. He has spent his
time and energy lavishly for the pro
motion of the cause of progressive
democracy and this recognition is
well bestowed and goes where it just
ly belongs.
Tracy Osborne is one of the true
fighting democrats of Mahaska county.
He is county chairman and is likewise
well deserving OF the recognition"
