At Fayetteville.

It is gratifying to the friends of Judge Tillman to note the splendid vote he received in Fayetteville, the home of one of his opponents, MT. Pu' man, and where such hard fight was made on him since his an nouncement on July 1st, 1912. The first race for Judge Tillman was the preferential primary at Fayetteville between him and Senator F. A. Rod gers of Gravette, Judge Tillman winning by nice vote, the second race came in the primary when his home town rallied to the support of Judge Tillman and gave him splen- did victory. This last election of Tuesday was a fitting climax to the hard race, when he completely sub merged his last opponent, MT. Put man. In Ward 1 of Fayetteville, MT. Putman's S home ward, Judge Tillman received 9S, Ivie 30, Putnam $, a clear 10 to 1 majority. In Judge Till mans home ward, No. 3, he received #115. Iyie b Putnam 12; second ward Tillman 30, Ivie 16, Putnam 2S; township. Tillman 122, Ivie 5S, Put man 3S. Totals for Fayetteville and Prairie township Tillman 430, lyie 119. Putnam SC.

HALLOWEEN FRANKS.

The youngsters, and several Of the older ones too, were out in full force Saturday night, and the many pranks played by those celebrating Hallow- cen are the subject of much com ment. In some cases property was destroyed in a ruthless manner, and in other cases the pranks were hu- morous. The two school buildings were the scenes of some of the worst work of the evening, and some of the property was badly damaged. Bug gies, wagons, blows, and other loose implements were pushed off the hlgh bank into the creek near the llght plant and in several instances the repair bill will be high. Some or these pranks are uncalled for, and are within the bounds of the law, and should be looked into. Parents should know the whereabouts o1 their children on Halloween eYen- ing, and endeavor to curtall them in some of their maneuyers. The evening is, of course, one in which pranks are supposed to be played by witches and other unknown and mys- terious personages, but the work Sat urday night was carried on ill a bold manner. One case that should be sighted is of small boys carrying two slot machines off Emma Avenue into the alleys where they were brok- en open and the contents taken. This is plain stealing, but in a small way, but is a stepping stone to some thing worse, and in which the conse- quences are sometimes grave.

 MAJORITY IN
 HOUSE REDUCED

New York, Nov. 4.-Latest returns from yesterdays election indicate that the Democratic majority i'll the house of representatives for the six ty-fourth congress will be reduced to twenty three, while the senate will remain in Democratic coatrol by an increased majority, probably of fourteen senators.
 Democrats have elected 225 mem= bers, Republicans f92, Prostessiyes 10 and Socialists l. Of the six miss ing districts, il is estimated tonight, the Republicans and Democrats might elect three each Heaviest Republi- can gains in the almost oyerHheIm= ing of the Demo rstic majority were 13 in Illinois, 12 ia New York, I0 in Pennsylvania and in Ohio
 Progressive representation in the house was cnt from l9 to 9 This re suited from the general collapse of -he Progressive orsaaizatien through out the country, excepting in Cali fornia.
 Although there is uncertainty re garding the electien in Utah and Ne vada, indications are that the new Senate will consist of 55 Democrats, Al Republicans and Progressive. Senator Reed Shoot, Republican, of Utah, would not admit defeat, al- though the latest return showed that James Nj Movie, Democrat Pro gressiye, was leading i'll the contest. Senator New1ands of Nevada also seemed in danger of losing his seat to Samuel Plat, Democrat.
 The Utah and Nevada senators have been long in the senate and both have been in their state several weeks endeavoring to overcome op- position. which had developed when the popular election of senators was provided by constitutional amend ment
 In the states where the fight was hottest, victory was practically as snred for Charles S Thomas, Demo crat Colorado; James E. Phelan, Shively, Democrat, Indiana; Charles Curtiss, Republican, Kansas; Warren c Harding. Republican. Ohio, and Charles H. Burke, Republican, south Dakota
