Even the baggage room has its sea-
sons" said the baggagemaster, making
himself comfortable on a trunk and
pointing to number of large trunks
that had provoked his observation.
Farmers seem to believe they are
the only persons whose work varies as
the seasons change. An apprenticeship
in a baggage room would soon con-
vince them that we knew what the
season is by the kind of baggage we
handle.

NEW CASTLE, Ind, Aug. 2S.-Con-
stsrnation was caused in Republican
,circles yesterday when it was learned
THAT three candidates and possibly
ymore on the Henry county ticket were
sPmgressives. One candidate, when
approached by an official as to the
lstory, declared vehemently that he
twas a Progressive and intended to
lsupport the national and state tickets.
kThe Republican county committee
!some time ago passed a resolution re-
touring all officials and candidates to
stake an oath of allegiance to Taft and
!!Durbin, and there is speculation as
Ito whether or not the several candi-

his fellows when he speaks OIL the floor
Of the senate. One day last July he
rose to make a speech, and, seeing that
there were only three men besddes him
self ii their places. he moved to ad-
journ. This was prevented by the as
sembling of a quorum Of senators who
had been sitting in the cloakrooms. In
beginning his delayed speech he said:
81 do not understand the conduct Of
senators. have seen them under all
phases. have seen a senator leave
this chamber when he should stay here
to receive good advice. I have seen
him leave this chamber when by re-

NET Awful. DEATH
NJ. r. Mcdonald Crushed by
Train at Simmons Switch
This Morning.
MANNER OF DEATH MYSTERY

NJ. r. Mcdonald, 80 years of age.
and employed as brakeman on the
Northwestern railway, met an awful
death at the Simmons switch just north
of Kenosha shortly before one O'Clock
this morning. His body, mangled be
yond recognition, was found about a
mile north of the city and taken to
the Mischief and Stanton mofgue, where
Ia coroner's inquest over it viii be
held on Saturdaw evening.
Mcdonald, who lived at the Brock
hotel in Milwaukee, was veil known
among railway men and had been en-
ployed by the company for some time.
He had left Milwaukee with the crew of
fast freight late Thursday night and
had aided in switching cars at Racine
Junction. When the freight pulled into
Kenosha just after one o'clock it was
discovered that Mcdonald had been
lost and the police department of Ken
osha was notified. Officer Borden made
an examination and found the coat of
the brakeman caught on the draw bar
Of one of the cars. With employees of
the railway, the officer walked back
along the track until the body of Nc
Donald was discovered. The man S head
and hoth of his arms had been cut off
and It seemed evident that the entire
train had passed over him.
Little is known in regard to the
family of the brakeman. He had made
his home at the Milwaukee hotel for
some time and the men who had worked
with him seemed to have no idea as to
where he had lived before going to
Milwaukee. Officials of the company
this morning announced that they would
make an effort to locate the friends OF
Mcdonald before the inquest is held
on Saturday evening.
Mcdonald was well known to many
of the employees of the company In Ken
osha and his tragic death caused great
sorrow among these men.
Other members of the crew can as
sign no reason for the man being killed.
He was a careful, sober, painstaking
brakeman and it is thought that he
must have slipped and fell between the
cars while walking from one car to
the other.

LaFolIette Wins President.
iaI Primary in this County
1,O75 to 652.
ROOSEVELT GETS Is VOTES

Senator LaFollette is the choice of
the majority Of the 1900 Republicans
of Kenosha county who voted in the
presidential preferential primary on
Tuesday, as the senior senator from
Wisconsin received 1915 votes to $50
cast for President Taft Theodore
Roosevelt, former president and now
a candidate for reelection, while his
name did not appear on the ticket,
lreceived total of Is votes. Presi-
dent Taft ran ahead in but one vot-
ing precinct in the county and the
victory of Senator LaFollette was an
emphatic one. In the second ward
Taft led LaFollette by five votes. 1t
/ is claimed that this is the only ward
in which active work was done for
the president.
The reports from the state indicate
that the vote in Kenosha county is
about the same as that in other coun-
ties and Senator LaFollette will go to
the Republican convention backed by
a full delegation from Wisconsin.
The vote for delegates fell far short
of the vote on city and town officials,
but the vote in the rural districts was
much larger in proportion than in the
city. The official canvass shows the
following vote for the various dele
gates:

THIRD WARD IS THE LEADE|
Forty Votes Were Cast by Women in
This Ward, but the Number Is MUCH
Smaller Than Number Cast at Elec-
ton in Same Ward Two Years Ago.

Votes for Women the slogan Of
the suffrage leaders in Kenosha failed
TO pring out the great vote expected
at the city election and the official
canvass of the vote showed that the
women who voted at the charter elec.
ton of last Tuesday numbered just
169 This was not great increase in
the number of women votes in the
city and in fact the number is not
as large as had been known IN former
elections in the city before the agita-
ton of the suffrage question There
was no great effort made to bring
out the women votes by candidates
for school commissioner this year and
no ward shows effective work in
bringing the women to the polls.
There was not a ward in the city
where the votes Of the women had
anything to do with the result as the
returns show that the candidates for
school commissioner were all elected
or defeated by the votes cast by the
males. There was an increase in the
number of votes in some of the wards
of the city. In the third ward the
women cast forty votes, the largest
cast in any ward of the city, but IL
the same ward a year ago the wont Il
cast more than double this number of
votes. The eighth ward had an un-
usual large number Of voters among
the women and the returns show a
total of % ballots from the fair sex.
In-this ward there was a hard fight
between the rival candidates for
school commissioner. In the seventh
ward the one woman who voted at
primary remained loyal to the cause
and voted at the election.
It is declared that the number of
votes cast by the women was much
smaller than had been anticipated
and while no organized effort was
made to get out the women the town
had been billed with posters calling
the attention of the women se their
right to vote and the necessity Of
their exercising the right Of suffrage.
The votes cast by the women in the
various wards are shown by the of
fetal report of the election as follows:
