CLAIMS AT THE
CLOSING OF N. Y.
CAMPAIGN

New York, Nov. 6.-With Governor
Whitman and Samuel Seabury. candi-
dates for governor, making final ap-
peals to the voters of this city. the
New York state campaign closed only
few hours before the polls opened.
The head Of each state ticket joined his
campaign managers in protesting Sc
rene confidence in the outcome of the
balloting. Because New York is con-
sidered a pivotal state in the Presi-
Dental election chief popular interest
in tomorrow's voting centered in the
contest between President Wilson and
Charles E. Hughes. Voters will be
called upon, however to elect COM
plete state ticket in addition to Gov
ernor and United States senator. Fore
casts tonight of the result tomorrow
depended upon whether the person
who made the prediction was a Demo-
crat or Republican. Both sides
agreed that the tide would be turned
for the national ticket by those who
voted as Progressives four years ago.
The combined Taft and Roosevelt vote
in 1912 was 845,5S0 as compared with
655,573 for Wilson. In Greater New
York, which the Republicans concede
will return a Democratic plurality this
year, the Taft and Roosevelt vote to-
gether exceeded by 3092 that cast for
Wilson.
On the eve of tomorrow's election.
the chairman of both the Republican
and Democratic state committees
claimed victory by at least 100000.

ILLINOISPOLLS

Chicago. Nov. 6-Although the presi-
dental, state, congressional and local
campaigns in Illinois were virtually clos
ed Saturday night, leaders and candi-
dates Of the various parties passed today
for the most part in perfecting organiza-
ton in the wards and precincts.
The chairmen of both Republican and
Democratic committees claim the state
will cast its vote for their respective
candidates for President by practically
the same plurality, 10000. The Repub-
lican chairman also claims that Frank
o. Louden will be chosen governor by
10000 plurality while the Democratic
chairman puts forth the claim that Gov
ernor Edward F. Dunno will be reelected
by 5000 plurality.
Women Of Illinois will vote for Presi-
dent for the first time tomorrow. though
they have not the privilege Of voting for
state officers with the exception of trus-
tees of the state university.

vote in the state will reach 100000. of
which 100000 will be cast by the women

Topographic Map Of Coyote Rapids,
Washinuton.

A new topographic map of the Coyote
Rapids quadrangle" Washington, has
just been issued by the United States
Geological Survey, Department of the
Interior. 1t covers an area Of about
210 square miles in the south-central
part Of the State. most of 1t a sparselv
settled semiarid lava plateau which is.
however. capable Of being made produc-
tive by irrigation. Water for this pur-
pose must be obtained from the Column
bia. which crosses the quadrangle. The
river flows northeastward here as at No
other place in it's course. For sone
time an irrigation system has been in
use in the area northeast of Covote
Rapids. and there is a pumping station
just above the rapids. The power used
here in raising the water is transmitted
from power plant at Priest Rapids *
miles up the river. and the water is die
tributed through the Hanford ditch
Much OF the lava plateau Of eastern
Washington has been Transformed hv
cultivation into fields Of wheat. ana IN
other secttons fruit raising has beer
carried to the extreme. but no great 80
riculturai development has vet hse,
made n the Coyote Rapids quadransl.

REPUBLICANS
NOT CONCERNED
IN THE NEGRO
COLONIZATION"

Chicago, Nov. 6.-Alvin T. Hert, man
ager of Western national Republican
headquarters, issued a statement to-
day denying that Republican leaders
have any knowledge of the alleged at
tempt to colonize Negroes brought
from the South in certain Northern

THE only Negro voters from the
South who have come into the North
have been brought here by farmesr and
manufacturers to work and there are
only a few of the Negroes who have
made the migration" Mr.. Hert said.
These few. If they have been in the
North long enough to establish a res

Nervous Period
fcaI Headaches

This trouble commonly called sick head
ache, is said to be due to the retention of
urea in the system. Often 1t is stated that
apoor condition of the blood is q cause of
these headaches, or that It 1s q nervous
condition; and in certain cases, no doubt
this is true.
Where treatment is demanded, it is more
for the pain than anything ELSE, and DR..
A. F. schellschmidt of Louisville. has
found anti anti -kamnia tablets. TO give prompt
insisted UPON" he says. "and the patient
should go to bed. darken the room, and all
the attendants and family should be as
Quiet as possible. An emetic will some.
times shorten the attack. The bowels should
be kept open with "Actoids"; a hot bath and
thorough rundown with q coarse towel,
often give grateful relief. Two anti-kamnia
tablets when the first signs appear. will
usually prevent the attack. During an at
tack. one tablet every hour or two will
shorten the attack and relieve the usual
nausea and vomiting" These tablets may
be obtained at all druggists. Ask for Ak
Tablets They are also unexcelled for ner.
vous headaches. neuralgia and all pains.

GREAT PLAcER-GoLD REGION.
Report on the Auriferous GraveIs Of
the Sierra Nevada by Wa!demar
Lindgren, Of the United States
Geological Survey.

The origin and the natural distribu-
tion of the $SO0.O000O of gold that has
been mined from the Tertiary placer
gravels of the Sierra Nevada of Califor-
mia is the subject of a report by Waldo
mar Lindgren. which has been published
by the United States Geological Survey
as Professional Paper 49,
The Geological Surveys studies of the
Tertiary placer deposits of the Califor-
MIA Sierra began in 1886 and were con-
cludedta tabout 10 years later During
this period % quadrangular areas were
geographically mapped and IA of these
were studied in geologic detail and the
results published by the Survey in geo
logic folios. Professional Paper 73 in
cludes the salient features OF this earli-
er work. most of which was done by Mr.
Lindgren himself. This report thus
comprehensive in geographic scope and
minute in geologic detail. is believed to
be the most complete and thorough de-
scription of a great placer-gold province
ever published
In the main the report is a detailed
description of the entire area covered,
including the gold placer gravels. but
MIR. Lindgren's general account of the
tremendous earth forces that built up
the Sierra and of the processes that
freed the gold from it's mother rock and
brought about it's concentration in pre-
historic river channels forms altogether
a most impressive description of conti-
nent building. Looking backward
through inconceivably long vistas of
time In which periods covering millions
of years supplant the centuries by which
we now compute it's passage. the geolog-
list pictures the uplift of the newborn
range by upward-forced great
bodies Of molten granite. This uplift
was accompanied or closely followed by
the formation Of veins and seams of
gold-bearing quartz and the resulting
highland was then planed down by ero-
sion caused by rainfall and the action
Of streams of water.
