FORD GAINING IN
RECOUNT OF VOTES
Doubt Ability to Overcome
Newberry's Majority
of 1900.
BY United Press

BY Emitted Press:
WASHINGTON. Jan. 27.-Count-
ing Of the ballots cast in Wayne
county, including Detroit, began to-
day in the senate recount OF the
1918 Michigan senatorial election in
which Truman II. Newberry beat
Henry Ford.
When Wayne county was taken
up Ford showed a net gain in the
recount to date which had reduced
Newberry's plurality from 1900 to
4. 900. II he is 10 overturn the plur-
atty he will have to gain approx
mately 5 1000 votes in the remaining
391 precincts and he has not shown
any such rate OF gain as yet.
Many votes have been thrown out
on both sides and the final result
will show both Ford and Newberry
with greatly reduced totals. Ford :
net gain consists really of a net loss
Of about $500 votes fewer than New
berry has lost in the recount.
Should Ford win in the recount
that will not entitle him 10 a seat in
the senate, election committee mem
bers said. Neither will he be auto
matically seated If the supreme court
upholds the criminal conviction OF
Nev.berry and the recount shows
Ford ahead.

HUGE CROWD ATTENDS
IMPRESSIVE SERVICES
BIGGEST EVENT IN HISTORY OF
LOCAL LUTHERAN CHURCH
Rededication of Church, Laying of Cor
.nerstone and Ordination of Min
lister Last Sunday. -

Probably thes most important event
in the history of the local Lutheran
church was consummated last Sunday
morning when congregation of from
1900 to 1000 gathered to witness a
| threefold solemn celebration-re-
dedication of the Viroqua Lutheran
church, the laying of a new corner
stone and the ordination of one of its
members as a minister of the gospel.
The church was thronged to the doors
aud as many more were unable TO gain
admission to the edifice.
In a sense, the occasion was prac-
tically rededication of the church be-
cause of its union with the Synod
branch of the church, the extensive
improvements to the. structure, and
the laying of the new cornerstone.
The dedication services opened at 1880
and the new stone received the docu-
ments from the old stone together with
the new records mentioned in last
weeks Censor and was sealed and
laid by Rev H. P. Grimsby. 1t was a
most impressiye ceremony, bringing
back to the memory Of the older mem.
bers those earlier occasions when our
first Lutheran churches were built
Then came the ordination service
the first occasion Of its kind which the
| Viroqua congregation has ever been
lprivelaged to witness, and the crowd
ed church watched with keen and rev.
erent attention the solemn ceremony
| through whose csRres one Of its sons,
Oscar NJ. Grimsby, was dedicated to
the service of God in his holy ministry
the fourth member Of Kiroqua Luz
theran church to take upon himself
| holy orders. ~
The Rev. Prof. Carl M. Weswig, b
D., one of the biggest men IN the Lu-
theran church, delivered the ordina-
| ton address. 1t was one of the Most
| inspirational sermons ever heard in
the city---eloquent, thoughtful and
Notwithstanding upon every phase
of the conduct and duty which Luther
an ministers owe to their God, their
congregation and themselves.
| Assisting in the service were the
Revs. HI. P. Grimsby, A. t. Tollevs,
d. T. Bergen, w. Wang, p. Tangjerd,
| F. Hammer, S. X. Thollehaug and
Rondestvedt. Rev. Finstad had place
on the program, but found 1t impossi-
BILE to be present The beautiful and
distinguished ordination ritual, with
its readings by different ministers,
its hymns and responses by the choir
and congregation, made most pro-
found impression upon those who were
fortunate enough to gain entrance to
the church.
In the evening another large con-
gregation assembled to listen to pow
erful sermon delivered in Norwegian
by Rev Tangjerd of Minneapolis, faith
er of Mrs. Grimsby. IL was a deep
and sincere gospel address, helpful and
uplifting to all who attended. Thus
closed one of the most important and
memorable days in local Lutheran
! history. W

Vir0qua fans saw real classy game
of ball Sunday with the exception of
the 9Th inning, when our boys got the
Hillsboro team all fused up. A cou-
pie Of hits, bunch of errors and some
clever base running gave our boys all
of their six runs in this frame.
Viroqua's new lineup worked in fine
shape-no boneheads and only one err
ror. Schultz pitched his usual steady
game.
Hlllsboro came over with a Milwau-
kee pitcher and greatly strengthened
lineup with every expectation of win
ming the game, and put up a classy
exhibition until they went to pieces
IN the fifth inning.
Pet Morrison was out of the game
because of the broken finger he had
sustained while taxing Curtiss place
behind the bat the Sunday before.
kuehn was back at his old place at
first, and it seemed good TO see him
play again
Cashton humbled Boscobel. the
Western Wis. League leaders, in one
of the fiercest base ball battles of the
season. The game abounded in fine
plays on both sides. Two wonderful
foul catches were made. Shotten and
Higbee were each touched for five
hits. Boscobel scored in the second
inning. Cashton tied it the next frame
with beautiful squeeze play. The
game went seoreless until the last half
of the ninth, when a timely hit with
two men on gave Cashton the victory
