Election Very Quiet in Maysvne
SENATOR HARDING
I. SPENDS DAY AT GOLF
While Country Records Its Vote For
President, Senator, Quite
Confident, Plays Golf.

Marion, Ohio, November 2. = While
the nation was recording its decision
today, on his candidacy for President,
Senator Harding pat politics out of
his attentions and gave over the
greater part of his time to game of
golf. After casting his own vote, early
in the forenoon, he went to the Scioto
club, near Columbus, for his golf
game. and will make the 4O-mile trip
back by motor late III the afternoon.
Tonight with Mrs. Harding and a
circle of relatives and friends, he will
learn the result Of the balloting at his
home, where local Republican leaders
have planned red-fire celebration in
his honor.
II there is in the nominees mind
any apprehension yver the outcome of
the election it does not manifest itself
in his outward demeanor. He wears
the same air of smiling confidence
that has characterized his manner
Throughout his campaign, and there is
apparent an additional touch of salts
faction that the stress of political de-
bate and maneuyering is over.
Mrs. Harding, his constant compan-
ion during his campaigning, appears
equally confident. She accompanied
him to the polls and cast her first vote
for him.

EARLY VOTING is.
feature OF TODAy'S
BALLO1ING IN CITY
Election Is Passing on With Little
Excitement in Maysyille--vOters
At Polls at Opening--Fast vot.
ing Indicates Straight Ballots.

Election day Is passing of very
quietly in Maysville with nothing Of
special interest about the polls. There
Is not the usual congregating about
the polling places to discuss issues
and few arguments are reported about
the places of voting.
At the opening Of the polls in most
every city precinct this morning there
were many waiting to cast their bal
lots and by noon today 1t is estimated
that nearly 80 per cent. of the vote
was cast. There was no crowding
and no disorder Of any sort. The vot-
ers stamped their ballots quickly and
left the polls Immediately giving room
for those waiting. 1t appeared that
the voters had made up their minds
in advance and it took but few Sec
onds to carry out their decisions.
Reports from the county are to the
effect that the same quiet is noticeable
about the polls. The vote will be a
very heavy one and the officers of the
election will have quite job on their
hands but as 1t is thought that there
has been little scratching done, it is
figured that they can make good time
and will be ready to announce the
results within very reasonable time.

F|REMEN AND
POLICE TO GET A
SALARY INCREASE
Ordinance To Be Presented For In
creasing Fire Department and Po.
lice Department Employees
Paving Committees Named.

Probably the most important busi-
ness transacted at the November
meeting of City Council held on Mon
day night was the request made of the
Laws and Ordinance committee that
they present at the next regular meet
ing of Council an ordinance increas-
ing the salary of the Chief of Police
and Chief of the Fire Department to
$500 per year and the salary of the
policemen and the firemen to 1920
pear year. This question or more sal
airy for these employees has been ags-
tated for months and this is the first
action Council has taken that might
be taken to indicate that a salary in
crease will go into effect the first of
next year
The matter of purchasing metal
moable signs for. the school districts
and street intersections was left TO the
Mayor with power to act For some
time there has been an agitation for
traffic signs in all city school districts
and movable traffic sign could be
used to good advantage on Saturdays
and other big days at Market and
Second and Sutton and Second. 1t is
expected the Mayor will purchase
these signs Immediately.
There was considerable discussion
In regard to the new building being
erected at East Second and Commerce
streets by the Limestone Lumber
Company. there being some contention
that the building was extending out
over the sidewalk line on Second
street, This matter was referred to
the Proposition and Grievances COM
mittee with the, City Attorney added
with power to employ an Engineer,
ascertain whether or not the build
ing was on the line and II not to cor
rect the matter.
Several of the Councilmen present
ed complaints of erroneous tax as
sessments, all of which were referred
to the Propositions and Grievances
committee for investigation.
Mayor Russell appointed his spe-
cial committee to investigate the mat
ter Of paving the extension of Carmel
street and the Carmel road from the
city limits to the cemetery gate to
as to. provide paved street all the
way to our city of the dead. On this
committee he named Councilmen Da-
wis, Hunsicker, Eitel, Brown, Keith

OPERA HOUSE WILL

OF THE ELECTION
Private Wire Installed at the Wash.
ingtOn Theater VIII Furnish the
Complete Election Returns to
Public This Evening.

All arrangements have been COM
pleted for the receipt at the Washing
ton Opera House of complete election
returns this evening. A private tele-
graph wire has been installed In this
theater and the returns will be an
nounced from the stage as quickly as
they are received over the ticker.
The county returns should be in
before s o'clock and these will be
given complete and in detail from the
Opera House stage. The state returns
will also be coming in rather early
and the returns from the Eastern
states, whose polls close one hour
earlier than do the polls here. This
gives all of the Eastern states an hour
start on the Central states and the
people of Maysville should be able to
know how the Eastern states have
voted long before they learn of the
Central and Western states. This
should give one some idea of how the
nation will go because there are many
electrical votes controlled by these
Eastern states.
In addition to the complete election
returns, there will be several splen-
did pictures presented during the eve
ming. The Opera House will remain
open all night and everyone will be
welcome to stay as long as they de-
sire.
To get the complete and correct re-
turns, be at the Washington early and
stay until early in the morning.

Silently Huenchacke whipped out a
razor from his hip pocket and. holding
Tuttle with one hand, slashed his
throat three times. The rozar narrow
ly missed the jugular vein and laid

throat.
Tuttle sank to the ground, while his

walked calmly down the street toward
police headquarters, leaving his vic
tim lying on the sidewalk. He entered
police headquarters and inquired Of

other prominent men in the manufac-
ture Of salt, the product being secur-
ed from salt springs located in the
mountains about 100 miles north of
that point. The business became one
of considerable importance and
proved very remunerative until cheap
transportation was afforded with the
advent OF the Northern Pacific rail-
road. When they began operations.
salt commanded a dollar pound in
Montana, and for some time they util-
lied about 800 OK teams in delivering
their product in the various towns
and mining camps throughout Idaho
and Montana territory.
Following the construction of the
Utah Northern railroad to Butte, in
1881, Governor White became an in
terested principal in the firm of Sc
bree, Ferris & White, doing general
merchandising and supply business
in all the towns along the line as it
advanced. The same year the firm
founded the first banking institution
| in Dillon, Governor White becoming
cashier, and in 1884 they merged this
institution into the First National
Bank Of Dillon, this being one of the
first national banks in the territory.
Governor White held the position of
cashier until 1888 when he was elect
ed to the presidency of the institu-
tion.
Staunch Republican
In politics Governor White was a
staunch republican, being an able and
loyal advocate of his party's princi-
pies and policies. In 1882 he was the
republican nominee for representa-.
tive in the territorial council and was
elected by majority of 800 votes
though pitted against one of the
strongest men of the democratic
lparty in Beaverhead county. The
change was one of radical nature

cendant of the first white child born
in America after the landing of the
Pilgrim Fathers, was born in New
Bedford, Bristol county, Mass. Dec.
3, 1888. and completed his early edu-
catiOnal discipline in Pearce academy
at Middleburg. His self-reliant and
ambitious spirit early showed its
domination, and in 1854, at the age
Of Is, the future governor Of Mon
tana shipped as a sailor before the
mast. making his first voyage on the
clipper ship Kathay, from New York
to Sidney, Australia. His second
voyage, in 1856, was to San Francis
co. Cal, and upon his arrival at the
Golden Gate, the attractions proved
strong enough to cause him to aban-
don a seafaring life and locate there.
Practiced Law in Idaho
In 1857, Governor White took
charge of large fruit farm in Napa
county, California, where he remain
ed until 1866, in the meantime de-
voting careful attention to the study
of law. The same year he went to
Idaho, of which Montana was then an
integral part, located in Malad City
and was admitted to the bar Of the
territory in 1868. He then entered
upon the practice of his profession
He held the office of clerk of the
United States district court. and In
1868, on the anti-Mormon ticket. was
elected clerk and recorder Of Oneida

Former Governor B. F. White. who
died in Dillon q few days ago. was
one Of the men who came to Montana
when It was q wilderness and helped
to make Of it the great state that it is.
