The local members Of the X. M. C.
A. were given a treat on Tuesday
evening when special election re-
turns were received at the Y, the
evening being open to senior and in
termediate members Of the Y only,
this being one of the treats which
the Y has in store for it's members.
The arrangements for the even
ing were in charge of the movie and
social committee mad it proved to be
great old night, reminding one of
the days of old when so mucn inter-
est was taken in the elections.
A special Western Union wire was
run into the building and Operator
Phil Hagen grabbed off every return
coming over the wire and kept the
crowd well supplied with the news
then in making in the political line.
The returns began coming in at
about eight o'clock and as soon as a
few of these returns were received
they were read and then movie
program was run and more returns
were read, then more movie of the
comedy order and more returns
At the midnight hour the social
committee served refreshments con-
sisting of hot coffee, sinkers and
cookies and after this the boys re-
manned until about two thirty until
it was definitely settled that the Re-
publicans had swept state and nation.

The Steamer Lupus with cargo
Of between 5000 and 1000 tons of
hard coal for the Northwestern Fuel
Company in this city is on the way
up the lakes and according to sche-
dule ought to reach this city some
time during Saturday of this week.
The boat left the lower lake port
on Tuesday of this week.
Supt. John Gibson says this is
more than enough coal to supply the
trade usually supplied by the local
dock and there will be more than
plenty of the coal for the Washburn
trade.

LEAGUE OF NOTIONS NOT
POPULAR.

Wilson and his League of Nations
was anything but popular in the
presidential campaign as is indicated
by the returns. Four years ago the
Democrats went into office on the plea
of "He kept us out of war" and in
this campaign the party favored the
League of Nations which was Will
sons pet idea, but the voters want
action and not mere words from this
time and they believe Harding and
Coolidge will give them action,
Americans refuse to be tangled up in
any alliance that will draw us into
the squabbles of the nations OF the
European continent and it seems that
the candidates that were against go
ing in on the League swept their dis
tricts everywhere.

BLAINE HAS AN EASY
TIME WITH MCCOY
Democrats Make a Poor Showing in
the State and Nation. People
Tired of wisconsin and Democratic
Misrule and League of Nations.

OeHlOcfatlc mlSfuIe, WISCONSIN,, Ine
League of Nations and all other
Democratic party ideas were swept
into the discard on Tuesday when the
Republican party scored landslide
and swept the state and nation,
/. carrying with them Republican
Congress which will be strong enough
60 control the affairs of the United
States for the next four years.
When the early returns began to
come in from eastern and middle
west states showing Harding and
Coolidge far ahead of the Democratic
candidates it was apparant that the
tables had been turned and that the
Democratic party was being swept
from Office, but Republicans, remem-
bering four years ago when on early
returns it appeared that Hughes had
bee nominated, refrained from re-
jocing to any great extend until
enough returns had been received to
indicate the way the wind was blow.
ing, and then the smiles of victory
began 10 appear ntheir faces.
1t was great victory, well fought
end well won, and the Republicans
are entitled to credit for conducting
a clean campaign. From returns
now it would appear that the Repub-
licans have made a gain of ten seats
in Congress while in the upper house
the Republicans have also acored a
gain of at least two members, and
complete returns are expected to in
crease this number.
In the electoral vote Harding is
sure of upwards OF 275 while 266
votes are all that is necessary. Of
the 120 doubtful ELECTORAL votes
many states are expected to go into
the Republican column on official
returns.
1t has been some years since such
a landslide was scored and the women
of America are netitled to a good
deal of the credit for they turned
out in Numbers al over the country.
In Wisconsin with the vote for
President and Vice President going
Overwhelmingly for Harding and
Coolidge interest centered on the
governor and Senatorial races. Nc
Coy, the democratic candidate, on
whom great faith was placed, was
easily defeated by Blaine, the Re-
publican. Blaine will have a plu-
rality of more than two to one.
United States Senator Lenroot, on
whom LaFollette and Non Partisan
centred attention during the cam.
paign in the hope of electing Thomp-
son, the independent, will lead the
other candidates by about $4,000.
Rensch, the democratic candidate was
a poor third in the race, it appearing
that many Democratic votes were
switched to Thompson in an endeavor
to defeat Lenroot, but Wisconsin's
favorite son, who has become one of
the leading men in the upper braLch
of Congress, came out of the fray
with comfortable majority.
In Bayfield, county there was no
opposition for the Republican county
candidates, and this was also true of
State Senator and Assemblyman.
John p. Jensen the socialist candi-
date fer Congress, made miserably
poor showing AGAINST Adolphus Mel
son, the Republican candidate.

AT ASHLAND ON THURSDAY
NOVEMBER 18th
Dandy Boxing Exhibition 20 be
Staged by the Ashland Athletic
Association at the Grand Opera
House Next Thursday.

The Ashland Athletic Club has all
arrangements made for another box
ing match to be staged at Ashland
on Thursday Nov. 18th, which is
Armistice Day, and the match prom
ises to be thriller.
For the main bout Carl Leonard
of New Richmond, and Boyle Of
Brooklyn will be matched. These
boys met in the last exhibition &C
Ashland and gave the fans battle
well worth seeing. Boyle was some
what over weight ia the last match
but he has agreed to make 1873 for
the coming contest and this will put
the hoys in about the same weight.
Leonard and Boyle begin boxing
from the sound of the gong i'll the
first round and keep going during the
entire ten rounds and there will be
plenty of action in this match.
For the semi-windup Godfrey John
son, the pride Of Washburn fans,
will be matched against Kid Hurley
of Hurley. This go promises to be
"a thriller. Hurley ic fast and
furious boxer with plenty of steam,
while johnson is known to be able to
stand punishment, besides carrying
the wallop of mule which has put
many of che boys into slumber land.
This bout will be at 135 pounds. Kid
Hurley boxed at Ashland in the first
exhibition and made good showing
against his opponent, while Johnson
is well known to Chequamegon Bay
fans.
In addition to the above there will
be two good preliminaries and the
promoters at Ashland say it will be
a card well worth seeing. !
