Returns
IRMON BEATS WILSON

Columbus, May 22.--With little
more than one third of the vote in
the state counted at | o'clock this
morning Roosevelt's delegates and
Governor Harmon's lead in the Ohio
primary.
The fight on both tickets is so
close that complete returns may
change the final results.
Complete returns from slightly
less than 1900 precincts in the state
showed Roosevelt had lead Of
more than $4,000.
Harmon's lead over Wilson is con.
siderably less.
In the Congressional districts
Roosevelt, apparently won delegates
from the fourth, sixth, ninth, tenth,
twelfth, fourteenth, fifteenth, seven
teenth, eighteenth, nineteenth, TWEEN
tieth and twenty first districts.
Taft practically has been granted
the first, second third and probably
the fifth, seventh eighth, thirteenth,
sixteenth arc doubtful. Both sides
claim election. Roosevelt also claims
two or three districts listed to Taft
tonight.
In Cincinnati Taft delegates were
nominated by vote Of two to one,
but the vote was light. Longworth

Republicans of the first district. In
the twenty first district, in Cleveland
proper, Roosevelt received more than
double the votes for Taft. or 1858
to 6,96S. LaFollette got 4,163 votes.

Roosevelt By 8 to /,

On the face Of the early returns
in Ohio's first presidential preference
primary, today Col Roosevelt lead
the Republican ticket by to 2 over
President Taft, and Gov. Woodrow
Wilson of New Jersey led Gov. Jud-
son Harmon of Ohio on the Demo-
cratic ticket. These returns, how
ever, were given on the basis of a
complete figure from little more than
ESQ precincts out of total Of 5,192
in the state.
Only on the Democratic ticket
does the count represent a direct
presidential preference vote. On

puted is the total number of ballots
cast in the precincts counted for
delegates to the national convention
pledged to President Taft or Col.
Roosevelt.

Attest
LONG Horns Long Trip.


To cover at rate of more than
$50 miles a day, a distance of more
than 1000 miles over strange roads is
the unique motoring achievement Of
c. F. Blumberg of Sequin, Tex. who
recently arrived in Detroit, in the
Texas Long Horn" EMF go"
In many ways, Mr.. Blumberg's trip
is unique. The car in which it was
made is the first EMF $50" shipped
to Southern Texas and had been run
more than 10000 miles by Mr.. Blum
berg. Something more than month
ago, friend suggested that the car
deserved an overhauling after so long
a period of uninterrupted service. Mr..
Blumberg expressed no confidence in
Seguin's local mechanics.
''Why not take it back to the fac
tory then?' inquired the friend.
The suggestion struck home. The
next day Mr.. Blumberg started, his
son Otto and William Stein completing
his crew.
The trip was made by way of Dallas,
Oklahoma City, Kansas City, Quincy
and South Bend The car encountered
the usual difficulties of an unusually
wet spring but made no compulsory
stops.
All along the route the care-free
spirit of the Texans ensured them an
enthusiastic welcome. The unique
decorations of their car which carried,
with other scenery, a gigantic pair of
steer horns affixed to the radiator, still
further enhanced the striking nature
of the expedition.
On his arrival in Detroit, Mr.. Blum
berg gravely inspected his equipage,
listened to its rythmical motor beats
and gave it as his opinion that the car
didn't need any overhauling after all.
Pending a play-spell in Detroit, in
which he finds the Long Horn" EMF
$50" of great convenience, Mr.. Blum
berg will resume his travels, making
the return trip by different route.
A unique part of the Long Horns"
trip is the fact that the car brought
Texas air to Detroit in every one of
the four Goodrich tires. Otto Blum
berg, age Is, drove the car all the way.

JAY SEAT
ONCE MORE
IN TURMOIL
Another Controversy on Between the
Officials Of Delaware +,
County.

Oklahoma City, June 29.-The Jay
county seat controversy is not settled
yet. This time it is the question of
a building in which to house the coun-
ty officials that is raising a dispute
between the county commissioners and
the other county officials and the mat
ter was placed before the supreme
court for adjudication.
When things looked rather dark in
the way of settlement in the Della
ware county seat fight Adjutant Cen
eral Frank Canton took jount Jay
ward at the order of Governor Cruoe
and the records were removed to a
building in the town of Jay proper.
This was no more than done than the
commissioners held a meeting and
passed resolutions that the building
picked out by General Canton was no
fit place in which to store the county
records and was unsafe. They there
fore ordered the county officials to
move back to the building from which
General Canton had removed the rec
ords. The county officials dared not
to do so and did not. Then the COM
missioners went into court and sought
to mandamus the county officers but
Judge Pitchford refused to take any
action.
Now the commissioners have filed
their appeal the supreme court. j

UNITED STATES
FOREIGN COMMERCE
New Record Made in Foreign Com
merce of the United States in the
Fiscal Year, 1912.

The foreign commerce of the United
States made new and remarkable
record in the fiscal year just ended
The total value of the merchandise en-
tering and leaving the country in its
trade with foreign lands and its own
island possessions in the fiscal year
1912 was A billion dollars; the value
of manufactures exported was more
than l billion dollars, and the value
of non-dutiable merchandise entering
the country was / billion dollars. Of
this l billion dollars worth of non
dutiable merchandise entering the
country during the year ending June
30, 1912, about 900 million dollars,
worth was from foreign merchandise
and 100 million dollars worth from
Hawaii and Porto Rico. OF the mer-
chandise coming from foreign countries
only (and not including that from
Hawaii and Porto Rico) 535 per cent
entered free of duty, against 44S per
cent during the entire period Of the
Dingley law, 4SS per cent under the
Wilson law, and SO per cent under the
Mckinley law when the admission of
sugar free of duty made the percen-
tage of duty-free imports unusually
large, but not so high as that of the
year just ended In fact, the value of
duty-free merchandise entering from
foreign countries in 1912 not only ex-
ceeds by far that of any earlier year,
but also forms a larger share of the
total imports than in any previous
years except 1892 and 1894, the open
ing and closing years of the operations
of the Mckinley law, when the i'm
ports of sugar free of duty were alb
normally large. Imports of duty-free
merchandise never reached as much
as 100 million dollars prior to 1873.
They touched the 200 million dollar
line in 1880, the 800 million dollar line
in 1891, the 400 million dollar line in
1892, the 500 million dollar line in
1905, the 600 million dollar line in
1907, the 700 million dollar line in
1910, and in 1912 approximated 900
million dollars; and the addition of
the merchandise coming from our own
islands brings the grand total Of non
dutiable merchandise in the fiscal
year 1912 up to a round l billion dol
lars.
The principal articles forming the
billion dollars worth of duty-free
merchandise entering continental
United States during the fiscal year
1912 ale, according to the latest re-
ports of the Bureau of Statistics of
the Department of Commerce and
Labor, food stuffs and manufactures
materials The food stuffs entering
without payment Of duty included
about 120 million dollars worth of
coffee, approximately S5 million dol

Change in telegraph Rates.

There will be a material reduction in

reduced many of the forty cent rates
to thirty This is equivalent to a
