By the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, November S.-After receiv-
ing the latest returns from party lead
ers in a number of doubtful states in
the middle west and west today, Alvin
r. Hert, manager of republican head
quarters, claimed that Hughes and
Fairbanks had carried Indiana, North
Dakota, California and Minnesota. and
that the national ticket had won with
at least 272 electoral votes or six more
than the required number.
II am certain that Hughes and Fair
banks have won, although the result
appears to be close" said Mr.. Hert Il
talked by telephone with Chester II.
Rowell. republican state chairman of
California, this morning, and he said
he had received returns from every
county in the state and that Hughes

Situation in Other States.

I'm Indiana the leaders with whom I
talked assured me that the republicans
had carried the state by at least 10000.
In Minnesota the republican leaders are
certain that Hughes has carried the
state by about 10000. I also received
positive assurance today from repub-
licans who are in position to know
that North Dakota is absolutely safe
for Hughes. Counting the electoral
votes from these states Hughes will
have 272, or six more than the neces-
sary 266. In addition to these states
which we are. certain Of we have
strong hopes of winning in Missouri
and Oregon, where the vote is exceed
ingly close"

ELEVATOR AccIDENTS.-When
in any field of public service acct
dents of more or less moment occur
from time to time and at varying
intervals, would it not seem that an
urgent need called for an investi-
cation along lines upon which the
causes might be ascertained, to the
end that public safety might be as
sured in the future. This in partic-
ular pertains to passenger elevators
in buildings where accidents, more
or less obscure and of greater fire.

have occurred in recent years.
Might it not be shown that, far
from being of obscure origin, these
accidents are merely the inevitable
effect consequent upon causes not
difficult to define?
What are the essentials of safe

hazards to be anticipated? What
features determine the adaptability
of a given device as regards its eff

any given device in a given case,

GOT KIBBLER's GOAT. lee
ture delivered in room 81, Masonic
Temple, has succeeded in getting my
goat.
The speaker was Mr.. Wilkes
barre, who, by the way, calls himself
Prof. Wilkesbarre, and the subject
was Ego"
Among the many statements that
got me were the following:
Socialism is a brain disease.
Self preservation is not the first
law of nature.
Exploitation is the first law of
progress.
The first he backs up by saying
that socialism is full of silly, sloppy
sentiments, altruism and pitiful
plea for something that isn't there.
The second by stating that if it was
left to the working class we would
have no progress, as it (the working
class) only does as it is told, so
therefore, if not ordered, it remains
where it is.
In discussing the third point he
said that self-realization, not self
preservation, is the first law. Then
went on to say that only Cheap or
ganisms," to use his own terms, are
afraid of death, for conscious egos,"
or finished organism value their
ideals more than life.
To my mind his first outburst
demonstrates his ignorance of So
ciaIsm. 1 would like him to meet
some Of our expounders of the cause.

From Rosholt Review

At the Farmers Elevator meeting
last Wednesday, the same officers
and board was reelected. Diyi-
dends and interest on the stock
was paid and other business trans
acted. The salary of o. A. Bjorke
the buyer, was raised from $500
per mouth to SIPS per month. 1t
was also decided to double the ca.
pacity of the elevator, and put in
a cleaner. Several new members
were admitted and still there are
many more farmers who will buy
stock.
Lefty Skooglund the popular and
fast pitcher of the Sisseton nine

zatiou and will for the time being
play with the Rosholt boys. Lefty

DROWNED IN
BUFFALO LAKE
Francis Warning Drowned
While In Bathing.

Francis Warning of Eden was
drowned in Buffalo Lake Satur-
day evening at about z o'clock.
He in company with a number of
other boys went out for swim
and to cool off, the day being un-
usually hot. When about fifty
feet from shore he went down
and never came to the top again.
The other boys tried to find him,
but it was some time before the
body was recovered, and they
were unable to restore life, ale
tho every effort was made.
The body was brought to Sis
seton Sunday and funeral service
es we're held from the Methodist
church Monday afternoon, Rev.
Ebert officiating. Interment was
made in the Sisseton cemetery.
Francis Warning was the son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Lincoln War
ring of Eden, was born in Sis.
seton and was about eighteen
years of age. The family have
resided here for years and only
a few weeks ago moved to Eden.
Francis was a member of the
1916 Junior Glass of the Sisse-
ton High School.
The death of Francis is a sad
blow to his devoted parents,
brothers and sister. He was
bright and cheerful and was al
ways looking foreward to a high
er aim in life. He was called at
a time when the future was full
ofpromise and when his expec.
fancy in life was most encourage
ing. He will be greatly missed,
not only by those who knew him
as member of a joyous, happy,
household, but also by the young
people who attended school with
him and mingled with him in
social gatherings. The sympathy
of a wide circle of friends is ex-
tended to Mr.. and Mrs. Warning
and the members of the family in
the sorrow that has come to
them.
