ception of the majority of the state
assembly were elected; the closest

crat, appeared to have beaten Carmi
Thompson, Harding's choice Tor
governor.
The democrats made a strong
fight for the governorship Of Kan
sas, senatorship, in Indiana, the
governorship Of Nebraska. Arizona,
Oregon and Oklahoma. All over
the country, they cut down the re-
publican majorities Of two years ago
and in the states where they did not
score an overwhelming victory, they
restored the normal ballot between
the parties as it existed before the
Harding landslide two years ago.
The Democrats appeared defi-.
nitely to have gained senatorial
seats in these states: New York, New
Jersey, Maryland, Indiana and West
Virginia. They lost a number in
Nebraska. Seats now held by the
Democrats were in doubt in Ohio
and Wyoming. Republican senator
ial seats in doubt were in Michigan
and Washington. =.
In the house, the democrats gained
back everything they lost two years
ago in the south and scored heavy
gains in normal republican territor-
les. Incomplete returns indicated
the following democratic gains: New

Ohio 8; Illinois s; New York 6; Ten

Miners claimed that no effort was
made to molest the truck. The men
on the truck declared shots were
fired from the miners meeting and
they retlfned the fire. Two miners
in the crowd were killed. No one
on the truck was hurt.
Incensed by the Killing of strikers
the mob surrounded the strip mine.
After an all night vigil, the strike
breakers, led by superintendent Nc
Dowell, cripple, left the mine un-
der flag of truce, expecting a safe
conduct to railroad station.
The strike sympathisers, after es-
corting the strikebreakers down the
road a short distance, opened fire
on the prisoners. The men were
told to run for it" across a field and
as they fled for their lives they were
moved down by fire from the mob's
ranks.
Local authorities showed little de-
sire to prosecute the guilty. A cor
oner's jury, plainly composed of un-

plainly blaming the employers who
attempted to operate the mines for

A widespread movement among
cha nhers of r. coun n, nrcn and other hrs

summoned and the indictments fol-
lowed.

dicted have been arrested with the
exception of half-dozen who are
supposed to have fled the country.

recent issue Of The Pioneer. The
first impression which the majority
will probably gain from the reading
of the heading is that the drive was
undoubtedly made in Ford.
You Can't Beat EN-
Had His Number
A clerk in a Bemidji store was
rather perplexed the other day at an
order he was asked to fill. A wo-
man came in and asked for shirt
for her husband.
"What size?" was the natural
query on the part of the clerk.
"Just a minute" she said, and
then proudly produced a photograph.
"Here's my husbands picture. I
want the shirt to fit him."

Alright With Him

you talk" explained a New York City
man the other day after the judge
had asked him why he had come to
the court room intoxicated and had
gone to sleep on a bench. "The ad-

Can You Blame Him
Finding paper marks no good to
him, the editor of a weekly paper in
a Bavarian town announced to the
public that he prefers to take his
subscriptions IN kind. For a three
months subs r; ;ytion he is. ready to
receive six pounds of flour, pound
of butter. or two dozen fresh eggs,
And we'll wager that he still finds
it hard to keep his subscribers paid

oners have been released in the past
fortnight, it was stated at Free State
military headquarters today. AL
though the majority Of them were
given their freedom in the last few
days, it was in no wise a Christmas
arrangement.
The course of signing a pledge not
to bear arms against the government
has been opened to all prise . rs for
considerable time, the officials add
ed, but the approach of the holidays
included many of the republican pris-
oners to abandon their idea of armed
activity. Owing to previous expert
ence with liberated persons breaking
their promises, the military authori-
ties made a careful investigation of
every case before granting release.
