KANSAS, COUNTED FOR ROosE- WELT, SWITCHED TO WILSON
 MAY GET ILLINOIS, 2e.
THE INDICATION IS FOR 439
ColonePs Total in College Is v, if He Loses Sucker State, Where Democrat Is in Lead-
 Taft's Total Is 12.

New York, Nov. S.-Woodrow Will son will have the unprecedented rec ord of 439 votes in the electoral col lege, from present indications, and he has good chance. of adding the three votes of Wyoming to that total, as it will require the official count there to determine whether Taft or Wilson won.
 Col. Roosevelt will be second, with the electoral vote of Pennsylvania, Michigan, South Dakota, Washington and Minnesota for a total of Y. Presi, dent Taft is third. He surely has the states of Idaho, Vermont and Utah, a total of F votes, and the chances of getting Wyoming when the count is completed. This was made certain when the revised figures became available.
 Roosevelt lost Kansas and, with lit tie doubt, Illinois, both of which he had claimed steadily from the earliest report. But he gained Minnesota when the vote of the "corn fields" be- gan to come in. The farmers stood by Roosevelt, and it is certain that the Oyster Bay statesman will re- ceive the electoral votes of that state.
 Switch in Illinois Due to Farmers.
 The switch in Illinois and Kansas was unexpected, and in both instances was due to the farmer vote. The rural districts swung in behind Wilson so effectively that the big Roosevelt vote of the cities was overcome.
 Wilson Plurality Is 2,500,000.
 Wilson did not receive a majority vote, but his plurality will be in ex- cess of 2.500.000, a record-breaker for

ed the former holding OF the supreme
Court in case OF the Shawnee Gas ana
Electric company against the State ct
AL. appealed from the corporation
commission and was dismissed today
for want OF jurisdiction. The court
formerly held that the corporation
commission was without authority to
fix rates charged by the Shawnee
company because it was controlled by
a city franchise fixing the maximum
rate. The question of jurisdiction was
not raised at the former hearing. Ell
feet of the decision is to sustain the
reduced rates made by the commits
sion for the Shawnee Gas company.
The court announces that gas and
electric companies do not fall within
the cate cory of transportation and
transmission companies, appeals OF
which the court now has jurisdiction.
The legislature has made no provis-
ions for appeals of gas companies
from order of the Commission, the
court says.
In the case of Jennie Yarbroush.
against Josie C. Spaulding and 7. NJ.
Leslie. from Muskogee county, which
is reversed and remanded, Justice
Dunn holds that congress had ple-
nary authority to fix the terms and
conditions under which restrictions
might be removed from members Of
the Creek Indian tribe. The act of
May 81, 1908, which provided that en-
rollment records of the commissioner
to the Five Civilized Tribes, was
thereafter to be conclusive evidence
as to the age of the citizen or freed
man. the court held, was neither un-
constitutional nor void, but valid
exercise Of congressional authority.
The same holding was made in the
case of Clifford Ross against s. N.
Herriott. appealed from Wagner
county, which was affirmed.
Act of the legislature Of 1910 fixing
salary of district and superior court
stenographers at 81 200 per annum
was not an appropriation, the court
held in the case of Cliff against State
Auditor Meyer. Cliff, court stenog-
rapher, obtained from the lower court
an order mandamusinS the auditor to
issue warrants for salaries upon the
theory that the legislature had fixed
the sum to be paid. This was reyers-
ed in an opinion by Justice Hayes.
Appropriation made for stenographers
by the last legislature was vetoed by
the governor and no relief can be
granted until the legislature meets.

The annual fair held by the Inter,

Friday evening, was the largest and
most successful ever given by the asso-
citation and the management from the
president down are individually and
collectively, richly entitled to the con-
gratulatiOns of all who attended the
fair and saw the many exhibits and at
fractions. There was good attend
ance. but it was not as large as it would
have been had the weather been less
chilly, which made it somewhat disa-
greeabIe. 1t is the opinion that the fair
as whole, was better than any of 10
cal character held in the state and that
many of the exhibits were better than
at the state fair, especially the stock eX-
hibit. The races were excellent and
there was not better field of horses at
any fair in the state, there being a
string of seventy horses to participate e
in the races scheduled during the ex-
hibition. The areOplane flights were of
the attractions that we. e drawing cards

The Farmer and His Partner.

| The August crop report of the Agri
cultural department., with it's forecast OF
| record breaking gains for 1912, is inter
estlng reading alike to the farmer and
| the city man. so essential to general
prosperity are satisfactory returns from
| the soil
The pesslmlSt is diSheartened with
the gain of 191 million bushels of corn.
l6 million bushels of spring and winter
wheat and 800 million bushels of oats.
totaling almost 600 million bushels in
three crops with rye and barley not con-
sldered; and it is still nesessary, in order
to get some idea of the total, TO add 20
million tons of hay.
This is billion dollar year for a bill
lion dollar country, and there is fair
chance that our 1912 crops will exceed
10 billion dollars for the first time in
history.
What has brought about this increase?
Are the rains Wetter and the sunshine
brighter than in former days? Not So
they are just the same, but the present
day farmer has learned well his lesson.
make hay while the sun Shines" The
explanation of the increase is intensified
farming, the application of science to
the tllllng of the soil, and economy in
the use OF methods and time.
The modern farmer no luuger bitches
up old DObbin and drives over bad roads
to town, thus needlessly wasting time
and energy. He has learned that he can
send his voice on his errands over the
wire highway. The rural telephone has
come to be the progressive farmers part
ner. 1t enables him to accomplish more
in one day than his father could have
done In two or even three. This partner
OF his brings to him the weather fore
casts and market quotations. He no
IJnger works in the dark. The partner
ship between the American farmer and
the rural telephone is contributing to
bring husbandry up to the same point of
efficient organization as any of the So
called big businesses.
An official of the Western Electric Co.,
the manufacturers of the seven million
"BelP' telephones, states that within the
last five years they have sold over half
million telephones for the farmers, and
the demand shows no sign of abating,
as practically all of the country folks
who have not already done so are realiz-
ing the advisability of taking into their
business lartner-a rural telephone.
