REPUBLICANS
AEROPLANE
Tremendous Racket Over Sat-
urday's Primary.
Vote Not Completely Canvass
ed In Meeting Yesterday.
Charged That Democrats Par
tiCipated in Nomination.

The republican primary of Saturday
is in an undecided con lition. On the
face of the returns & W. Coppinger
has the nomination over J. NJ. Kelly
by $50 votes The approximate vote
for Mr.. Coppinger is 300. For trustee
S. L. Rogers has the highest vote,
about 55S, with L. P. Brewer. second,
with 487 votes. Over this race there
Is contest, question being raised ov-
er the legality of the voting at Whit
well, Victoria, Whiteside and She'll
mound, where it is alleged democrats
have voted contrary to the rules of the
primary committee which laid down
shat only known republicans should
be allowed to vote.
A meeting was held at Jasper yes
terday afternoon to canvass the vote,
and for two and half hours there
was a constant wrsngle over these
points, and nothing definite was deci-
ded on. Efforts were made to have it
decided by the Executive Committee
Saturday next, but this was not deter
mined upon. An effort was made to
have the candidates settle it them
selves, but owing to the absence OF
some ofsthem this could not be finally
decided upon Tne vote was not
counted, about ten districts being pass
ed upon when conflict came up over
the Shellmound vote where eight dem
ocrats are claimed to have voted. At
Victoria 4S democrats are said to have
voted. At Whitwell the vote is near
ly 100 in excess Of previous voting,
ana it is charged that democrats voted
there.
The discussion was entered into by
leading republicans, and while con-
Quoted in friendly way was strenu-
Gus. There was sharp clash in par
liamentary tactics between j. W.
Morrison and J. j. Dykes, the former
a leader fol Brewer and the latter for
Rogers. 1t is not known when the
matter will be settled.
In the matter of nomination for tax
assessor Alder won by large vote ov-
er Adams.

With Other Editors


A woman IN Indiana wrote 10 the pres

detained" on the border and Mr.. Wilson
promptly wrote back that the troops were
kept on the border for the protection of
the country, not for dri1.
1t j. hard for those AT "A distance to APP

many IF the Gnardsmen now here seem
10 appreciate the fact that were the
troops withdrawn from the frontier there
would be q repetition Of the raids and
robberies which were the primary cause
for their being sent here.
The preparation for actual conflict with
Mexico is only secondary TO the necessity

that the border people are all bent upon

ArlQSErlElQI
Diaghilef Ballet.

The second night Of the DiaghileH
Ballet Russo engagement was a repeti-
ton of the spectacular, musical and
dancing splendors revealed at the open
ing presentation. Our own theater
having developed absolutely nothing
in the same artistic spirit. there are no
standards Of comparison 10 be brought
forward i'll connection with this i'm
portation. Its work stands forth dis
tinctively and alone. yet the programs
given here demonstrate the variety of
which this character of entertainment
is capable.
Perhaps The most pretcntious of the
photographic works thus far pre-
scented in Washington is Scheherazade,
the tragedy founded on the faithless
wife of the sultan, whose story opens
the conventional editions of the Arab
an Nights. There is q sense of the un-
usual in being compelled to take a
fairy book of youthful diversion with
seriousness as 4 work of tragic force.
The oriental tale is revealed by
Diaghi1eT with all the conscious effort
that would be given the narrative by
an oriental stoTSteller. Flora Reyalles
made q profound impression, the cen
trail element OF beauty in a scene of
thrilling maeuificence. Adolph Eolm
was no less Interesting and adnira BILE
The second number revived for an
exquisite moment the conventional
ballet, which was at once the Jest and
the delight Of our forefathers, VINO
donned their opera hats TO greet some
lta liam prIfna donna. \ simple reVcla-
ton of physical grace, Les Sylphides"

sodes Of the entire evening. 'LApres

cry Prince Igor minSles ethnoiogE
with art in a WhiriWind of native

costuming is a fantastic hurly burly of
colors. and yet harmonious in general
effect.
The orchestra was accorded series
of ovations, its work proving even
more delightful than On the evening
previous.
The final performance of the Ballet
Russo will take place tonight. The bill
Will include the following ballets; La
