ST.LOUIS PALLADIUM A VICTORY! ROOSEVELT THE MAN Poetic Story of the Rise of the Negro's Friend. [Name] A. W. WASHINGTON [Written by Prof. A. W. Washington, 2011A Walnut St., the day before election.] Theodore Roosevelt is the man Who has the ship of state in his hand; It is really his chief delight To carry her safely through all right. He is the man that all can trust, And he never likes to raise a fuss; He is too-good to do otherwise. For trouble he always dis despise. I'll tell you how he came in power, And how the blessings on him did shower: In eighteen hundred and ninety-eight The Maine was sunk in Havana's gate, On the strength of which war was declared. McKinley was president at that time— To bring about peace he asked for time. The queen of Spain would not hear to that— Nothing would suit her but have a spat. Well, said McKinley, we will prepare, I'm sure my soldiers will do their share; I will put all of them in the field. Those Spaniards will not have time to kneel. Two hundred thousand men were called for To fight the Spaniards on Cuba's shore; There was enlisted young and old, All of them were game and very bold. The assistant secretary of the navy Was Theodore Roosevelt, who loved ham gravel. He went down there and fought like a man. "Yes," said he, "I'll do the best I can. I'll go there and fight and make a name, The strength of which will bring me great fame." He was colonel in that war, you see, Heading the Rough Riders, where he wanted to be; Those Rough Riders carried him through all right. Which was really his chief delight. When the war was over he came home— In every home his name did loom. Hurrah for Roosevelt! the people said— That made the colonel hold up his head. ST. LOUIS, MO., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1004. Being elected governor of New York. He carried the state in a whoop and a walk. With honor and credit he served his state; When called to duty he was never late. In nineteen hundred his name was called To be second on the ticket in that fall, For without him the ticket could not win. For him to refuse would have been a sin. He gave his consent, and then made a speech; He stuck to his party, just like a leach— The party was triumphant in that fall— McKinley and Roosevelt, and that was all. Wm. McKinley was assassinated; Done by a man I really hated; That was in nineteen hundred and one, Soon after his second term had begun. Roosevelt was sworn in as president, Since then his time and talent he has spent; He has kept his promises as best he could, And all his acts have been very good. Now he comes up for re-election. We ought to elect him in a run, For he is the best man for the place, And he is the best one in the race. The one thing I like about him most, He deals to injustice an awful dose; He believes all men ought to do right, If not they ought to be run out of sight. It is not the tree that makes the land, Nor it's not the color that makes the man: Honesty and uprightness it is that All other than that all men are rats La La La, La La Lee, La La La, La La Lee To elect him is what I want to see. Come, let all elect him president. For he is the man that God has sent. THE CHRISTMAS DELINEATOR The December Delineator, with its message of good cheer and helpfulness, will be welcomed in every home. The fashion pages are unusually attractive, illustrating and describing the very latest modes in a way to make their construction during the busy festive season a pleasure instead of a task, and the literary and pictoral features are of rare excellence. A selection of Love Songs from the Wagner operas, rendered into English by Richard De Gallienne and beautifully illustrated in colors by J. C. Leyendecker, occupies a prominent place, and a chapter in the Composers' Series, relating the romance of Wagner and Cosima, is an interesting supplement to the lyrics. A very clever paper entitled "The Court Circles of the Republic," describes some unique phases of Washington social life is from an unnamed contributor, who is said to write from the inner circles of society. There are short stories from the pens of F. Hopkinson Smith, Robert Grant, Alice Brown, Mary Stewart Cutting and Elmore Elliott Peake, and such interesting writers as Julia Magruder, L. Frank Baum and Grace McGowan Cooke hold the attention of the children. Many Christmas suggestions are given in needlework, and the cookery pages are redolent of the Christmas feast. In addition, there are the regular departments of the magazine, with many special articles on topics relating to woman's interests within and without the home. Football. There will be a game of football between the Lincoln high school, of Kansas City, Mo., and the Sumner high school, of this city, at Handlan's park, corner Grand and Laclede avenues, Saturday afternoon, 3 o'clock, November 19. The Kansas City team is a strong aggregation, being considered the best team of its class in the western part of the state. Sumner this year has a fast and scrappy eleven, and as there is great rivalry between the two leading high schools of the state, an exciting contest is promised all lovers of the game. It is earnestly desired that the public will turn out in large numbers to witness this contest, as the management of the Sumner high school has gone to considerable expense to bring the Kansas City team here. As there will be no Thanksgiving day game here this year it is planned to make this the event of the season. Sumner will play in Louisville this year on Thanksgiving and a large crowd of rooters are preparing to accompany the team. Good rates have been secured and all who plan going are requested to see Mr. E. C. Campbell. The Sumner colors are maroon and white. Come out and root for the boys on the 19th. A Boston judge decides that a hotel is not an inn, within the meaning of the law, unless specifically licensed as such. ROOSEVELT FAIRBANKS Our President and Vice-President. Sees Hand of God in Election. Chickasha, I. T., Nov. 9.—The twenty-fifth session of the Indian mission conference of the African Methodist Episcopal church opened here this morning, presided over by Evans Tyree, D. D. M. D., of Nashville, Tenn. It will continue in session until Monday night. Rev. J. D. Springer of Ardmore preached the annual sermon. The following officers were elected: N. W. Austin, secretary; H. R. Williams, assistant secretary; J. E. Tombs, statistical secretary. Imposing on the Old Folks Almost daily we hear of cases which young girl marries some of good-for-nothing dude. Instead waiting until he has sufficient support a wife as she should be ported, he will marry on a sale five or six dollars a week, with result that in less time than it to tell it they are back home doing on the resources of either mother and father or his. The young girl in the meantin Bishop Tyree delivered an address, in which he said that the voice of the people was the voice of God, and both God and the people had spoken in the election of President Roosevelt for another term. He desired to see all the people unite for the uplifting of the common country, and did not want that there shall be any race strife. He wanted to see the time come when men like Gov. Davis of Arkansas, Gov. Vardaman of Mississippi and Senator Tillman of South Carolina would be snowed under, and only good men put in office. "Any man who will create friction between the races is unfit to hold a public office," he said. Mrs. Ruth Collett, of Philadelphia, representing the A. M. E. book concern, was identified and made a few remarks. -Globe-Democrat. Agents Wanted Both sexes, to sell our Scott's Magic Hair Straightener and Grower, and Scott's Face Bleach and Beautifier.

The above famous remedies are for sale in St. Louis at Mrs. Mattle B. Robinson, 2318 Papin street. Antioch Church Notes The pastor in charge, Rev. S. P. Anderson, preached a fine sermon last Sunday at 11 a. m. from St. John, the Sunday at 11 a. m. from St. John XV-5. The sermon was both practical and spiritual. The attendance was good. The visiting ministers were Reverends Z. P. Harris, Dr. Bayne and M. L. Stennis. At the close of service Rev. Dr. N. H. Baynes presented Mrs. Mary A. Lawrence, through her pastor, Rev. S. P. Anderson, a very nice Oxford Bible for having raised the second highest amount ($55.40) Sunday, July 31, 1904, at the last rally given by the late Rev. Frederick McKinney. Mrs. Lawrence, in response said she felt that she had only done her duty as captain of the club, and the credit was due to the faithful members and friends that assisted her. We have been so busy in politics that we have lost sight of the young dudes that hang around Jefferson avenue and Market street watching for the schoolgirls, also on the different corners as far down as Fifteenth street. This must be stopped. We call the attention of Chief Desmond to this evil. Put some shrewd Negro detective to watch their points, and then find them, out and carry about twenty of them to the stations. NOTICE! NOTICE! NOTICE! A lady on Finney avenue, in the 4000 block, said, now I have succeeded in seeing both my daughters married, now I think I ought to get married. We say, who wants a good wife? Address Palladium office. 380 Imposing on the Old Folks. Almost daily we hear of cases in which young girl marries some young good-for-nothing dude. Instead of him waiting until he has sufficient funds to support a wife as she should be supported, he will marry on a salary of five or six dollars a week, with the result that in less time than it takes to tell it they are back home depending on the resources of either her mother and father or his. The young girl, in the meantime, insists upon having the very latest thing on in the clothing line—tourist coat, velvet dress, etc. Since her husband can not furnish her with the articles her refined taste requires, there is but one resource, and that is the old folks. Girls should have more consideration for their old parents, who have saved a lifetime to support them, than to add another burden to their shoulders. Boys should have more manhood and independent spirit than to accept support from those far less able to give it than they themselves. When a young man calls to see the daughter of a house, the father and mother should know something of his life, and not permit their daughter to associate with a man on his face value only. An older person has had more experience, and is better able to judge the character of a man than a girl is. Girls are entirely too reckless. St. Paul A. M. E. Church. Members and friends are invited to attend Sunday school every Sunday at 9:30 a. m. and the Christian Endeavor at 6:30 p. m. Mrs. Alice Jones, with many other faithful workers, are doing all they can to make the work a success. So come out and encourage them. Postponed. The presentation of the musical comedy, "Miss Amanthis," by the Lyceum Sketch club, has been postponed until Thursday, December 8, on which date it will take place at Douglass hall.

State University Appointments. The board of curators of the state university held a meeting at Columbia last week: Dr. A. H. R. Fairchilds, a doctor of philosophy, graduate of Yale, now residing at Toronto, Can., was appointed temporary instructor in English, to fill the place made vacant by Prof. H. E. Penn, who was called to a full professorship at Washington university. The other appointments were as follows: A D. D. Van Deint, instructor in mechanical engineering, was named to fill the vacancy due to the resignation of J. H. Wallace. Mr. Denny of Kerney, a graduate of the university of mechanical engineering class of 1904, was made assistant in mechanical drawing. Miss Raby Fitch, of Warrensburg, was named assistant in botany. Leslie M. Fry, class of 1900, was named assistant in engineering for the second semester. Walter Arthur was appointed student assistant in zoology, Otto Veatch, of Jasper, was named laboratory assistant in geology. Prof. F. R. Mumford and President R. H. Jesse were appointed delegates to the convention of the national association of agricultural colleges and experiment stations, at Des Moines, Ia. Capitalized at $7,037,350. The capital stock represented by the 113 domestic business enterprises to which were issued certificates of incorporation by the secretary of state during October is $6,437,850, to which must be added $599,500, the latter sum representing that portion of the capitalization of the nine foreign corporations to which were issued during the same period licenses authorizing them to do business in Missouri, set apart for that purpose, and making the total for the month $7,037,350 for the new domestic and foreign companies either incorporated or licensed. To this, however, in order that the exact total may be reached, must be added the increases made in the original capitalization of companies which had been previously incorporated. Strangers Assault Frisco Clerk. E. Devid, a bill clerk at the Frisco freight office at Cape Girardeau, was assaulted by unknown parties while at work at his desk. He was hit in the back of the head with a blunt instrument, and is unconscious. His condition is critical. Nothing in the office was disturbed, and it is not known why the assault was made. Folk Addressed 10,000. In the coliseum at St. Louis Saturday night Joseph W. Folk spoke to 10,000* persons. Among the other speakers were Gov. A. M. Dockery, Harry B. Hawes and Martin W. Littleton, of New York. Mr. Littleton confined himself exclusively to national issues, making a vicious attack upon President Roosevelt. Brothers Shot by Accident. Sam and Albert Kimmick, brothers, living at Cape Girardeau, were badly wounded while hunting. They stopped to talk to a farmer who was also hunting. As the farmer was ejecting a shell from his gun both barrels were discharged into the bodies of the brothers. Their condition is critical. $12.085 in Fees and Taxes. Secretary of State Cook received $12,086 in fees and taxes during October, which $9,140 was from domestic corporations. Advocates a Canal. A. H. Bell, of Bloomington, Ill., a civil engineer and a man of 20 years' experience in river dredging, has gone over the lowlands of the Marias des Cynnes river with property owners whose land is affected by the overflowing of this erratic stream, with a view of making an estimate on the cost of digging a canal to carry off the flood waters. He proposes that a canal be built of sufficient dimensions to relieve the river when it becomes flooded and also to make a number of cutoffs where the river makes wide bends. His estimate is that the canal can be dug for an average of $10 per acre of the 40,000 acres of lard now almost valueless. During the year this river has come out of its banks and receded seven times, causing a loss of hundreds of thousands of dollars. A permanent organization has been made with regular officers among the ranchmen and farmers interested in the enterprise. Aid will probably be asked of all whom it will benefit. The Missouri Pacific Railway company suffered a big loss this spring, amounting to thousands of dollars by tracks being washed out and not being able to operate any trains over it for a number of days, and will favor some scheme whereby a repetition of this year's experience may be avoided. Can't Stay Out of Prison. There was received at the Missouri state penitentiary recently a convict known as "Dutch Charlie," who has entered upon his twelfth term of service. Charlie stated that he was careful to come to the prison under an assumed name, changing it from time to time that he might escape prosecution under the habitual criminal law. He said that his last offense was committed under the guise of a land buyer, and that while pretending to be arranging for the payment of $4,000 for a farm he stole his victim's watch. For this he gets three years, and thinks he will die before its expiration, as he is now 88 years old, and is becoming feeble. His prison record shows that he first came to the penitentiary in June, 1852, when he was 46 years old. He was sent up from St. Louis county as Lewis Meyer, receiving a sentence of two years for grand larceny. In August of the same year he was pardoned. The remainder of his prison record, which is briefly given, shows that he has spent but little time outside its walls. He denies ever having been in any other prison, and says that he cannot help stealing; that it was born in him, and that he cannot resist taking things which do not belong to him. Prehistoric Fortification. Four miles south of Mount Vernon, in Lawrence county, at the confluence of Spring river and Honey creek, is an ancient fortification that has strangely been ignored by Missouri antiquarians. No more interesting relic of prehistoric times can be found in the state. The place is called "Old Spanish Fort," a name given the fortification by the early settlers of Lawrence county. The main fortification is a circular ditch inclosing about an acre of tableland that is bordered by steep bluffs on the Spring river side and the "breaks" of Honey creek on the northwest of the old fort. For a short distance the two streams run together and on three sides of the fortification the ground is steep or sharply sloping toward the course of the little rivers. On the south side of Spring river the bluff is so nearly perpendicular that its ascent would be impossible though attempted by a trained mountain climber. The inner trench of the fortification follows closely the variations of the line of the bluff, indicating plainly the builders of the works intended to strengthen the defense by the nature of the Spring river approach. A Fortune Found Mrs. Austin. A dispatch from New York to a St. Louis paper stating that C. H. Lithgon, a millionaire of Spokane, Wash., was in New York searching for a Mrs. Austin, to whom he wanted to give $275,000, as her interest in a gold mine in Butte, Mont., led to finding her in Clinton, Mo. Mrs. Austin had recently moved to Clinton from New York. An interest in a mine near Butte was given to Mrs. Austin many years ago. It was considered worthless then and the transaction was not considered important enough to record the woman's full name. A rich strike was made about a year ago, and a syndicate offered to buy the mine. The deal could not be closed without the co-operation of Mrs. Austin. Burglars Used Dynamite. The front of the Houstonia Hardware & Implement company's store at Houstonia was blown out in an ineffectual attempt to blow open the safe. The store of the Longan-Smith Drug company and Arrengton's confectionery store were also burglarized, but the total loss was small. Cannel Coal at Rich Hill. The Big Three Coal company, composed of Rich Hill men, made a lucky strike in their shaft one quarter of a mile southeast of Rich Hill. They had gone down 27 feet through 12 feet of slate, when they struck a fine threefoot vein of cannel coal. This is the first strike of cannel coal made in the Rich Hill fields, and the price it commands in the market, together with the cheapness with which it can be mined, makes it a rich aid for the operators. They claim have 40 acres underlaid with the product. BE NOT DECEIVED TO THE COLORED PEOPLE OF AMERICA. King of all Hair Tonics, "OZONO." BEFORE. AFTER. Recognizing the fact that there are many SO-CALLED hair-growers and hair-straighteners now on the market, and knowing to a certainty that many of these are frauds pure and simple, we wish to make a straight-forward, honest statement to the colored race through this great paper. In the year 1871 our late secretary, Mrs. S. M. Moore, through a fortunate circumstance, acquired the receipt for OZONO. It was not offered for sale or purchase to any extent until 1875, when it was put upon the market and met with marked success. After a thorough test by the colored people of that time it was pronounced an honest, legitimate remedy, true to all that was claimed for it, and worthy in every respect of the confidence of every member of the colored race, because they found it to cause the hair to grow long and straight, soft and fine, and as beautiful as an April morning. Now, whenever a genuine article appears upon the market there are always a number of people who imitate and make capital out of the merits of other people's goods. Seeing our marked success, numerous firms have entered the market, offering hair-growers and hair-straighteners, many of which are worthless, causing the hair to fall out and doing great damage to the hair and scalp, and the colored people are buying these spurious compounds, which are filled with animal fats, and do the hair more harm than good. To these let us sound a warning—be careful what you use on your hair. Do not be deceived by flaring advertisements and big words. Buy the King of all Hair Tonics. OZONO. which is sold with an iron-clad guarantee to do all that is claimed for it, or we will forfeit $50.00. Now, we ask you a plain question—would we absolutely agree to forfeit $50.00 if you are dissatisfied with our preparations, if they were not true to all we claim for them? We have advertised for several years under this guarantee, and we are glad to say that every one who has used Ozono has been satisfied in every respect. 20,000 people are to-day using our preparations, and every purchaser recommends Ozono as the King of all Hair Tonics.

Nothing but Ozono is necessary, and the hair stays straight forever. You can stop the use at any time. The good effects on the hair are seen in a day or two after the first application.

Arrangements Are to Be Made For a Fitting Programme on November 26, the Day of the President's Visit. Washington, Nov. 11.—President Roosevelt has promised to attend the Louisiana Purchase exposition on Saturday, the 26th of November. He made this promise Thursday night to a committee from St. Louis headed by Mayor Wells, who came to Washington especially for the purpose of inviting him to visit the fair. The probability is the president may remain in St. Louis until the night of Sunday, November 27. President Roosevelt has been anxious to go to St. Louis to see the fair ever since its opening. However, the PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT. presidential campaign impelled him to remain in the east, and in August he so informed Mr. William H. Thompson, treasurer of the exposition. The committee to which the president gave his promise to visit the fair consisted of Mayor Rolla Wells, William H. Thompson and Corwin H. Spencer, first vice-president of the exposition. Their train was late, so they did not reach Washington until six o'clock. Through Secretary Loeb an immediate audience with the president was arranged. The committee remained with him for half an hour, and each member urged on the president the acceptance of the invitation, pointing out the appropriativeness of a visit of the chief executive of the nation, and of the gratitude which would be felt by the people of St. Louis if he possibly could find time to go. The president cordially thanked the committee for its invitation, and after consulting his engagements for the remainder of the month, he set the 26th as the most favorable opportunity available. It is expected that the president and those who accompany him will leave here on Thanksgiving night, and will reach St. Louis early Saturday morning. The invitation to Mr. Roosevelt, it is understood, is comprehensive enough to include any other persons whom he may wish to have with him, and some of the members of the cabinet are likely to accompany him. The members of the committee are highly elated with the promptness with which Mr. Roosevelt decided to visit the fair. They feel that his attendance will have an excellent effect, and that the day of his visit will be one of the banner days, if not the banner day of the exposition's history. They say that arrangements immediately will be made for a fitting programme for that day, the chief feature, of course, being a thorough inspection of the grounds and buildings of the great fair, with such other appropriate exercises as befits the presence of the chief executive of the nation. For Sunday following, should there be no disappointment of the committee's expectation that the president will remain in St. Louis during that day, arrangements for his entertainment also will be made. Mr. Thompson and Mr. Spencer left here for St. Louis Thursday night. Mayor Wells and L. D. Dozier, a member of the executive committee of the exposition, who came with the committee on invitation to Washington, will remain here for a day or two. Mrs. Gertrude Riggs Discharged. Kansas City, Mo., Nov. 11.—The case against Mrs. Catherine Gertrude Biggs was dismissed Thursday in the criminal court and she was discharged. She was accused of conspiracy with Edgar G. Bailey, James Forsha and William Moon in the murder of Albert Ferguson, a non-union hack driver, during a strike in this city. Bailey was sentenced to hang for the crime. BIG NEBRASKA BLIZZARD Fierce Snow Storm Raging and Temperature Below the Freezing Point. Omaha, Neb., Nov. 11.—A fierce snowstorm, which began Wednesday night, continued over the northern and northeast portion of Nebraska Thursday. A dispatch from Norfolk says that it increased in fury, reaching the proportions of a blizzard. The temperature has fallen considerably below the freezing point. MASSACHUSETTS' POLITICAL HERO Wm. L. Douglas Says He Won On "Publicity and a Real Issue." THE ONLY DEMOCRAT ELECTED The Governor-Elect of Massachusetts Says He Had Something to Advertise, and Spared No Palms to Let the People Know It. Boston, Nov. 11.—"Publicity and a real issue," that is William L. Douglas' laconic explanation of his phenomenal democratic victory in being elected governor of Massachusetts, with Roosevelt carrying the state by 80,000. Such a freak of politics is unparalleled in old Massachusetts. Mr. Douglas was not merely elected, he won by a plurality about five times as large as any democrat and second in size to the plurality of any republican candidate for governor in the history of the state. And to emphasize and isolate his victory, he was the only democrat to win; all the republicans, from Lieut.-Gov. Curtis Guild down, getting the normal vote. Already Mr. Douglas is being nominated for president in 1908 and hailed as the newly-raised Moses who is to lead the democratic hosts in a war on the trusts next time. His victory has given a terrible jar to to the Lodge machine and is being interpreted as an ominous warning to the "stand-patters." It was a sign-board and newspaper victory. Every sign-board in the state and every newspaper made his warry of "Reciprocity; no protection to the trusts," as familiar as the wood-cuts of Douglas in the advertisements. They carried the story of his humble early life as a shoe pegger, a doffer boy, driver of a prairie schooner, finally a modest shoemaker and at last a millionaire manufacturer to every corner and crossroads. Poster and newspaper saturated the public with Douglas and his idea. Trying to Figure It Out. Now everybody in Massachusetts is trying to figure out how it happened. The sheeamaker-governor-elect told the story in his headquarters in the Old South building. He had just come up from Brockton, where 3,000 of his employees had given him a great ovation. He had been cheered all the way up, and came to Boston to find himself the hero of the day. The next governor of Massachusetts is a self-made business man, with all the marks of his successful kind. He moves rapidly and speaks decisively. "I was elected," said he, "because I made my fight upon a single, live, human issue, which reached straight into the intimate, everyday affairs of men and women—because of that issue and a generous use of publicity. Advertising had made my business pay, and I used it to the limit in arousing and directing the sentiment which I knew to be widespread on the subject which was our chief issue—reciprocity and tariff relief. Run His Own Advertising. "The central committee ran the campaign, we ran the advertising down at Brockton. From the outset, my idea was to keep our fight and our issues right before the people—to keep just a little more in the public view than the republican candidate. "In my inaugural I shall begin the work by asking the legislature for permission to appoint a commission to thoroughly investigate all the tariff injustices and report fully. That report I shall seek to have sent to the people under our referendum law, to instruct out representatives in congress to take steps to procure reciprocity and lower tariff. I do not believe that the republican legislature will block this effort. I do not think it is willing to shoulder the responsibility. The people have shown what they want." NATURALIZATION FRAUDS. The Federal Grand Jury at St. Louis Will Undertake a Searching Investigation. St. Louis, Nov. 11.—The federal grand jury, which has assembled for the November term in the United States district court, will take up the St. Louis naturalization frauds and commence what promises to be a lengthy and thorough investigation of the conspiracy which resulted in hundreds of foreigners being provided with forged citizenship papers purporting to be issued by the St. Louis court of appeals. Col. D. P. Dyer, United States district attorney, will bring before the jury the mass of evidence which his office has been accumulating for weeks. Lists compiled from the registration books, showing several hundred names of persons who registered for the November election, and whose papers are not on the records of the court of appeals, will be submitted to the jury. JAPS TO TRY FRUIT FARMING Thousands of Them Are Expected to Settle in the South When the Present War Ends. San Francisco, Nov. 11.—J. Saiki, a Japanese, has just arrived here from Manchuria on the way to Florida to plant a Japanese colony to engage in fruit farming. Saiki says he intends securing 6,000 acres which will be cultivated on the same plan as that in Hawaii. He expects thousands of Japanese to settle in the southern states at the close of the war. 2601 LAWTON AVENUE, N. W. Cor. Jefferson and Lawton Aves. Open Day and Night. Both Telephones.

LOUIS PALLADIUM IS in its 20th year of regular publication. (2) Never has missed an issue. (3) No fake subscription list to "catch" honest advertisers. (4) More bona fine subscribers than any other Negro paper in St. Louis or State. (5) The ONLY Negro newspaper pub- lished in St. Louis as the organ of the Republican party. (6) Because it is the official organ of Wright Cuney Political Club. (7) Because it is fearless in denouncing crime regardless of consequences. 69 ROOSTER Last Tuesday we met the enemy, and they are ours. The most gigantic swindle was in the Fourth ward. Let congress see that vote. Harry M. Coudrey will be elected from the Twelfth district when the count is made in Washington. The defeat of the democratic party come to them like death comes, at an hour when they least expect it. For two years the republicans have been anxious to see the books at Jefferson City. We shall see them at last. Several of the so-called Negro democrats will be put out on the side walk. Most all of them have secured a position with Street and Walker. We wish them success. The Negro democrats held a wake last Wednesday night on the defeat of their so-called friend, the democratic party. All the crape in St. Louis has been secured by the democratic party to cover the state of Missouri. In the state house. Next January there will be a general house cleaning. We will see the books, and we have to see more yet, and that some good election laws put upon the statute books of this state for the protection of the citizens of this state. T. H. THE STATUE OF THE INDIAN WARrior SIOUX CHIEF. One of the Beautiful pieces of Statuary at the World's Fair. Last Tuesday, November 8, the democratic party met their waterloo. We told you so. You can fool some of the people all of the time, and you can fool all the people some time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time. For thirty years the democratic machine of the state of Missouri has had their sway, but on last Tuesday they fell a victim to their folly and they can realize the above quotation. We feel and know that the Palladium has been on the side of our party principle, and we have left no stone unturned to rescue our party. Only one left to tell the story-almost as bad as Job's servant. When the Hon. Joseph Folk seen that the city ticket was defeated he said to his friends, "I am the only one left," and in a little while he came back to the state committee and said, "Behold! I am the only one left to tell the tale of the state ticket." This ends the story. The governor of Missouri, the Hon. Joseph W. Folk, will be very lonesome at Jefferson City. All his advisers will be republicans. We hope their acquaintance will ripen in golden friendship of the republican principle. St. John's Mission Sunday School. Sunday, October 23, at 603 Red Bud avenue, St. John's Mission Sunday school was reorganized by J. W. Wheeler, with the following persons: Miss Emma Fontain, Mrs. Amandy Mitchell, Mrs. Hattie Saulsbury, Miss Bulah Fountain, Miss Mammie Fountain, Miss Lena Cole, Little Josephine Cole, Ada Cole, Allie Keithely, Frankie Keithely and Miss Gasey.

After a few remarks were made by the acting superintendent, the cards and tickets were given out and adjourned to meet November 6. On the 6th of November the school met in pursuance to the time set. School was opened by singing hymn No. 85. Prayer by superintendent. Singing, after which the lesson was spoken of, instructing those present to the importance of a Sunday school and living an exemplary life. At this juncture cards and tickets were given out to new scholars. Several visitors were present. Among them were Mrs. Fearson, a member of St. Paul's chapel, who promised to give us all of the aid she can. School closed to meet November 13th. Mammie Fountain, secretary; pastor, acting superintendent. A Unique Affair. A most delightful surprise was tendered Rev. and Mrs. E. W. Alexander, November 3, at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. E. G. Tuget, 3826 Sophia avenue, in the form of a silver coin shower by their many loving friends. Rev. Alexander has accepted a call to the Second Baptist church at Columbia, Mo., and will depart thence November 10. On behalf of their leaving, the surprise was given, at which a handsome purse of $15.75 was presented them. Speeches of presentation were made by Revs. W. H. Davis and J. L. Cohron, expressing the sentiments of 65 guests, representing each of the churches of which Rev. Alexander has had pastoral charge. In response, Rev. Alexander expressed himself as being surprised and grateful, and his remarks were very impressive. Many were the comments Mrs. Tuget received upon her beautifully decorated home. The color scheme, being green and white, was carried out precisely with chrysanthemums, ferns and rubber plants. Supper and refreshments were served in abundance by the caterers. A short, interesting programme was rendered. The amusing feature, a recitation by Mrs. Sarah F. Lewis, was highly appreciated by all. It was near the wee small hours of the morning when the last guest departed. Vashon's Female Classes. I am forming female evening classes for instruction in language and belles-lettres, mathematics and penmanship. These classes will meet at 2629 Lawton avenue three evenings of each week. Ladies intending to join these classes, address me at the Lawton avenue (or the subscribed) address at once, as there will be no disposition to enroll new pupils after the classes are formed. GEORGE B. VASHON, 2243 Oregon Avenue. A Pleasant Visit. Mrs. Rev. H. C. Pierce, of Parkersburg, W. Va., visited her daughter, Mrs. Josephine Wilson, of 2109 Chestnut street, also her sister, Mrs. Ottis Hunty, of Richmond, Ind., and Mr. Will Richmond, of Chicago, Ill. They returned home last Wednesday. While here they took in the fair and were pleased with our old St. Louis. They also visited the many first-class resorts. Petticoat Logan and Folk. We are in receipt of a clipping from some paper that had copied an article from Petticoat Logan, who teaches school in Huntsville, Mo. He is a fullfledged Folk man and publishes his paper to that effect. If the party who sent the article desires to have it published, he should have sent along a compensation to run the machine. Africa. There will be a lecture given at Bethany Presbyterian church, Nineteenth street, between Wash and Carr streets, Sunday, November 13, at 3 p. m. Dr. W. H. Shepherd, F. R. G. S., will lecture on his 14 years in darkest Africa. Subjects: "A visit in Lunkanga, Twelve Miles in the Interior;" Two Days in the Cannibal Camps of the Zoppozop;" "Two Months' Journey by Canoe in the Kwango and Kwelu Rivers;" "Founding of the First Christian Mission Station;" "The First Dawn of Light in Central Africa;" "The Building of Two Churches." He has also with him many African curios. Singing in the native tongue by Mrs. Shepherd. Mr. and Mrs. Shepherd were sent to Africa by the southern Presbyterian board in 1890. They are here for a vacation at Dr. Curtis' 2735 Lucas avenue. They are under the directions of Dr. L. J. Washington, of Bethany Presbyterian church. Notice. We have stopped free-doings in the paper. Since the World's fair we have received hundreds of locals concerning coming guests, and those who are here. The senders undoubtedly expect the articles to be published free graits. Through investigation it has often been discovered that the senders are neither subscribers to The Palladium, nor do they even bear a friendly attitude toward it. Any locals not accompanied by a compensation will find their way into the waste basket. Important Items. Mrs. W. A. Long's husband is still very sick at her home, 815 Lucas avenue. Mrs. McKinley was among the earliest to congratulate President Roosevelt on his election. St. Louis republicans will boom Thomas K. Niedringhaus for the United States senate to succeed Francis Marion Cockrell. Mrs. Fannie Bird, of 1622 Franklin avenue, left last Monday for Wright City, Mo., to attend the funeral of her father, who died last Sunday. She will be back soon. Next week we shall give a full account of these so-called Negro democrats that will soon take their departure from the city hall and courthouse. We deeply mourn for them. Mrs. Eliza Haycraft, one of the oldest teachers on the force, died early Thursday morning, after a lingering illness. Quite a number of the teachers of the present time have been former pupils of Mrs. Haycraft, and always recall her as a pleasant one. May she rest in peace. Jas. L. Mays, Prop. A. Claypool K.

SAN ANTONIO & ARANSAS PASS RAILWAY COMPANY SAN ANTONIO & ARANSAS PASS RAILWAY COMPANY One of the Best Lines South. We are confident that many of our people are looking for permanent homes, and we would suggest that they look to the great state of Texas, in order to make a personal investigation of the wonderful possibilities of the Lone Star state. Texas, particularly the territory traversed by the San Antonio & Aransas Pass railway, which owns and operates 723 miles of road, as follows: Main Line—San Antonio to Houston. Waco Division—Waco to Yokum. Waco Division—Waco to Tookum. Lockhart Division—Lockhart to Shiner. Kerrville Branch—San Antonio to Kerrville. Corpus Christi Branch—Corpus Christi to Kenedy. Rockport Branch—Rockport to Gregory. Alice and Falfurrias Branch—Skidmore to Alice and Falfurrias. By reference to the map you will see that they run through the finest and earliest truck-producing section in the southwest. The climate is so that the farmers raise and sell something every month in the year; in fact, it is known as the "open winter" farming country of the southwest, where a man can work out in the open air every day, and does not have to spend all he makes in the summer to keep him through the winter. It is understood that the low rate Homeseekers' tickets will continue to be on sale during November and December to all San Antonio & Aransas Pass points, of which the following are the most prominent local stations: Falfurrias, Corpus Christi, Alice, Bceville, Skidmore, Runge, Cuero, Yorktown, Hallettsville, Rock Island, Yoakum, Giddings, Cameron, Luling, Rockport, Kennedy, Karnes City, Floresville, Rockdale, Gonzales. You can pack up Sallie and the babies and go south, and they will show you all of these fertilized fields, where you can enjoy life. It is a sad mistake when our people crowd into a large city. You can do better by taking up your home in Texas. We will continue this appeal for the benefit and welfare of the Negroes. (To Be Continued Next Week.) Go on SAN ANTONIO & ARANSAS PASS RAILWAY. If you wish to spend a pleasant winter, GO TO TEXAS. If you have money to invest in land, GO TO TEXAS. If you wish to be benefited by the finest of artesian well water, GO TO TEXAS. If there are another number of other things you wish to do, just take advantage of the never-before-heard-of office of the San Antonio and Aransas Pass Railway and go to Texas. Just think! Only $15 a round trip to Texas. Quite often one makes his home in a place where the best of advantages are not offered him. The only way to remedy this inconvenience is to take advantage of whatever opportunities afford themselves. Texas is a state that contains acre upon acre of production farm land. It is not only productive during the summer, but what is most unusual also during the winter. A man doesn't have to "lay by" for the long winter months. The climate is such that one can farm all the year around. Some may hesitate because of the supposed difficulty in disposing of crops because of lack of railroads. Such a claim held good long years ago. At the present time, the San Antonio railroad has access to every available point, and makes this special offer of $15 a round trip for the express benefit of those whose funds may be low, and who might wish to purchase land in Texas, and could not afford the regular fare. Don't hesitate longer. Buy your ticket and go at once. ROOMS FOR RENT. NICELY FURNISHED ROOMS for rent. 103 S. 14th st. FOR RENT — Nicely-furnished rooms at 1809 Lucas avenue.

THE REMARKABLE ELECTION RESULTS Theodore Roosevelt Swept All But the Solid South Like a Whirlwind. THE REPUBLICAN MAJORITIES ARE SOMETHING PHENOMENAL. Partial Returns From Many of the States Indicate the Extent to Which Republican Success Has Been Carried in the Greatest Victory in American Politics. New York, Nov. 9.—The election of Theodore Roosevelt to be president of the United States for four years beginning March 4 next, is one of the most complete victories in the history of American politics. In the same measure that it is an overwhelming victory for republicanism and its policies, it is a crushing defeat for democracy, perhaps, in view of all the circumstances, the worst the party has ever sustained. Congress is overwhelmingly republican. In the house the republicans increased their majority of 31 to 64 or better, as several districts are yet doubtful. To what extent the candidacy of Watson and Debs contributed to the defeat is not clear at this time. The astonishing vote which these men received, however, particularly Debs, who polled over 45,000 votes in Chicago, is a strong indication of the discontent with which a large wing of the democratic party regarded the candidate and the platform of the St. Louis convention. The indications, based upon a careful summary of the known vote, is that Roosevelt will have 325 votes in the electoral college, which gives Parker 151. No democrat since Horace Greeley's time has run as low as this. In 1872 Grant had 292 votes to 74 for Greeley and other democrats. In 1892, however, Harrison got but 145, while Cleveland got 277. At that time the electoral college was smaller by 29 votes at present. The republicans carried every doubtful state in the country, and carried them by tremendous pluralities. As nearly as can be estimated, New York state gave Roosevelt a plurality of from 175,000 to 180,000, while Higgins, the republican candidate for governor, was literally dragged through by the national ticket. Falling behind over 100,000, he was still able to win by 75,000. A split result was obtained in four states. Nebraska, which gave Roosevelt about 30,000, and elected a republican legislature, appears to have given Burge, the fusion candidate, about 8,000 over Gov. Mickey, republican. The election of a republican legislature in Nebraska is a fatal blow to the aspiration of William J. Bryan to the United States senate. Bryan bent all of his energies to the saving of the legislature, in vain. Minnesota gave Roosevelt 100,00, but elected Johnson, the democratic candidate for governor, by about 10,000 plurality. The main fight in the state was over the gubernatorial situation. Republicans voted for Johnson and refused to aid their own candidates on the stump or at the polls because of their disgust with the ring rule that the state had staggered under for so many years. Massachusetts gives Roosevelt 75,000 majority, but elects William L. Douglas, the democratic candidate, governor. Boston gave Douglas over 34,000 plurality. The Roosevelt vote in the state exceeded the fondest hopes of the republicans, but they are absolutely stumped by the unexpected defeat of John L. Bates for governor. The vote in Colorado is close, but there is no doubt that Roosevelt has carried the state by about 6,000. Alva Adams, the democratic candidate for governor, is elected by about 8,000 over Peabody. The defeat of Peabody is laid to the labor troubles in which he played a conspicuous and unpopular part. In every other state in the union outside of the solid south the republican national and state tickets have swept everything before them. President Roosevelt, in most instances, runs ahead of the McKinley vote of four years ago, while Judge Parker is behind the Bryan vote in many states. It is clear that Bryanites slashed the national ticket in most every state, either going over to the republicans or voting under the standard of Watson or Debs. California, which gave McKinley but 40,000, turns out a 60,000 plurality for Roosevelt. In Connecticut Roosevelt is about 3,500 behind the McKinley vote, but in Illinois he is 55,000 ahead of it; in Indiana 24,000 ahead of it; in Iowa 30,000; in Kansas nearly 30,000 ahead of it; in Michigan 45,000 ahead of it; in New York 34,000 ahead of it, and there are corresponding increases all along the line. The popular vote for Roosevelt and Fairbanks will be the largest ever cast in this country, and the plurality on straight votes will exceed anything ever attained by the candidates of either side. The way in which the tidal wave struck New York state, and more especially New York city, is the astonishing feature of the day. That Roosevelt would carry the state there was but little doubt, but no such plurality was looked for by republicans or democrats. It was confidently believed that Herrick would be elected and his asinishing run ahead of the national ticket shows that only the abnormal conditions prevailing all over the country defeated him. The landslide hit New York city proper hard. To come down from the 122,000 Coler plurality of two years ago to a total plurality in the entire city for Parker of about 55,000 and a plurality of about 80,000 for Herrick was a hard blow to Tammany. Following are some of the late returns from the states: THE ELECTORAL VOTE. Alabama ..... 11 Arkansas ..... 9 California ..... 10 Colorado ..... 5 Connecticut ..... 7 Delaware ..... 3 Florida ..... 5 Georgia ..... 13 Idaho ..... 3 Hibnols ..... 27 Indiana ..... 15 Iowa ..... 13 Kansas ..... 10 Kentucky ..... 13 Louisiana ..... 9 Maine ..... 6 Maryland ..... 8 Massachusetts ..... 16 Michigan ..... 14 Missouri ..... 11 Mississippi ..... 10 Missouri ..... 18 Montana ..... 3 Nebraska ..... 8 New York ..... 3 New Hampshire ..... 4 New Jersey ..... 12 New York ..... 39 North Carolina ..... 12 North Dakota ..... 4 Ohio ..... 23 Oregon ..... 4 Pennsylvania ..... 34 Rhode Island ..... 4 South Carolina ..... 9 South Dakota ..... 4 Tennessee ..... 12 Texas ..... 18 Utah ..... 3 Vermont ..... 4 Virginia ..... 12 Washington ..... 5 West Virginia ..... 7 Wisconsin ..... 13 Wyoming ..... 3 Total ..... 343 ..... 123 The electoral vote of Missouri is a veto ILLINOIS. Chicago, Nov. 9.—Illinois surpassed all records in the matter of yielding republican pluralities. President Roosevelt carried the state by at least 230,000, and com- CHARLES S. DENEEN. plete returns may swell even this unprecedented figure. Charles S. Deneen's law school is less the tremendous uprising in the Prairie state for Theodore Roosevelt among voters of all parties has upset all political calculations. Some of its effort. Twenty-three of the 25 congressmen are republican, whereas only 19 were even hoped for. Nobody branches of the state legislature are strongly republican. Every ward in Chicago went republican for the first time on record in a general election. Not more than 25 of the 102 counties in the state gave a Parker plurality. Chicago furnished the greatest surprises in the state, if not in the entire country. President Roosevelt would carry the city—normally democratic—by more than 100,000, he would have been scoffed at. He would have been carried by Cicero and Roosevelt carried the same territory by more than 107,000. Benecean ran ahead of Roosevelt in the city by about 5,000. His total Chicago vote was 213,383. Stringer's being 100,511. Congressman Foster (dem.) lost in the city by about 5,000, usually good for 5,000 pluralistic votes. The socialist vote in Chicago, and in the state causes unconcealed surprise. In Chicago the vote for Debs was 4,357, and in the state causes unconcealed mated at 100,000. In McLean county the socialist vote increased from 95 four years earlier to 1,000. In the centers of the state the same proportionate increase is reported. This fact, added to the defection of the democratic vote, is responsible for democratic strongholds, are doubtless responsible for the astounding republican pluralities, the feelings engendered at the field's conclusion, and continued at St. Louis, who was never stifled. NEW YORK. The republicans hold the legislature by an increased majority an increased majority. They will probably have 100 out of the 155 senators and 30 of the 50 senators. A republican will be elected senator to succeed Depew. PENNSYLVANIA. Philadelphia, Nov. 9.—The republicans have made an almost clean sweep in Pennsylvania, carrying the state or 20% of the 252 senators and electing 25 of the 28 state senators and 29 of the 32 congressmen. They have also elected about 175 of the 204 members of the house of representatives. This gives them control of both branches of government. They are also during the election of Gov. Pennypacker's appointee, P. C. Knox, for United States senator to succeed the late M. S. Quay. John P. Elkin, republican, is elected state supreme court judge by majority as that cast for the republican national ticket. The republicans have also carried nearly all of the judicial districts in which elections were held for common pleas in which associate judges were chosen. INDIANA Indianapolis, Ind., Nov. 9. - From incomplete returns it looks as though Roosevelt came from 75,000 to 100,000 plurality in Indiana. Marion county, Fairbanks' home, which gave McKinley a majority of 4,000, gives Roosevelt a majority of 21,000. Thousands of votes were bought by the republicans and that $20,000 was spent here. Varlous plans were used to defeat the Australian ballot that $20,000 was a peculiar way of folding the ballot. The hardest fight is on the legislature, which elects two United States senators. The republicans are claiming the legislature has a majority. Republicans also claim a gain of one congressman—Newton W. Gilbert—in the Twelfth district. The republican commit- WYOMING Cheyenne, Wyo., Nov. 9. - Roosevelt has carried Wyoming by from 7,500 to 8,000. Mondell, republican, has been elected to governor of Wyoming. Brooks, republican, has been elected governor by over 4,000 over Osborn, democrat, and the rest of the republican state ticket has been elected by majorities ranging from 4,000 to 8,000. The republicans will control both branches of the state legislature, thus insuring the re-election of Senator Clark. On returns received Cheyenne is far in the lead for the permanent location of the governor. WEST VIRGINIA. Charleston, W. Va., Nov. 9. - Roosevelt has carried this state by a large plurality of Democrats. Democrats have elected their state ticket. John J. Cornwall, the democratic candidate for governor, believes that he has been elected by not less than 10,000 plu- Wheeling, W. Va., Nov. 9.—The republicans have elected all five congressmen. W. M. C. Dawson, republican for governor of Missouri, will be the Republican of Rosevelt's majority, will be twice as great. MASSACHUSETTS. Boston, Nov. 9.—The republicans are absolutely stunned by the sweeping majority in Brockton, for governor. Gov. Bates ran behind Roosevelt in every town and city, and lost his majority in the city. His plurality of 35.98 over Col W. A. Gaston a year ago is turned into a plurality of from 25,000 to 30,000 for a congressman. The republicans elected the rest of the state ticket, at least ten to fourteen congressmen, and a large majority of the Democrats. The democrats elected, besides their candidate for governor, at least three congressmen, Roosevelt's plurality will be 35.98, as against 81,880 for McKinley in 1900. MISSOURI St. Louis, Nov. 10.—The St. Louis Republic of this morning, summing up the situation in the state, says: For the first time in 35 years, or since Carl Schurz was elected United States senator, republicans control the Missouri senator, according to the best estimate obtainable last week. They will have a republican majority of 14 on joint ballot, thus causing the retirement of Senator, Francis M. Cockrell, the former governor. The republicans have elected 85 members of the house and the democrats 57, a republican majority of 18. Of the 17 new senators, the republicans probably have elected seven. There are three republican hold-over senators, or a total of ten. This gives the democrats a majority of 14 in the upper branch of the assembly. At present, the democrats have a major share in the house and 18 in the senate. On joint ballot, the present democratic majority is 44. The Missouri returns show results the state astonishing in the history of the state. Folk is elected by a majority that may have carried the state vote over 8,000. He has carried the state vote twice, even excepting possibly Cook and Allen, despite that the electoral vote probably will not be carried. National districts are probably republican. Calculations on percentage of democratic loss indicates 4,000 Roosevelt plurality, or the election of Judge Reyburn is in doubt. HON. JOSEPH W. FOLK. Governor-Elect of Missouri. The republican landslide and democratic apathy engulfed legislature and conventions with the populists, voted with the populists, or voted the republican ticket, scratching state candidates and writing in such of the democrats that the party was incomplete returns up to midnight indicated that the next Missouri delegation in congress would consist of eight democrats and eight republicans, as follows: First District—James T. Lloyd (dem.). Second District—William W. Rucker (dem.). Third District—Frank D. Klepper (rep.). Fourth District—Frank B. Fulkerson (rep.). Fifth District—Edgar C. Ellis (rep.). Sixth District—David A. De Armond (dem.). Seventh District—John Welborn (rep.) Eighth District—Dorsey W. Shackle- der (dem.) *Nintt District—Champ Clark (dem.) Tenth District—Richard Bardholt (rep.) Eleventh District—John T. Hunt (dem.) Twelfth District—Ernest E. Wood (dem.) Thirteenth District—Marion E. Rhodes (rep.) Fourteenth District—William T. Tyndall (rep.). Fifteenth District—Cassius M. Shartel (rep.), Sixteenth District—Robert Lamar (no.) Unofficial figures from 85 out of 114 counties in the state show that Folk's plurality over Wabridge is $8.183. Roosevelt over Wabridge is $4.85 votes. The other counties in the report will have a gain for Folk and a probable loss for Roosevelt. It remains possible that the state will be saved to the democrats. In St. Louis the entire republican city ticket, with the exception of a few canvassers, from 500 to 2,000. The exceptions were Moses N. Sale, dem., for circuit judge, who defeated William Zachritz, rep; two members of the Twelfth district, and Hunt, in the Eleventh, and three members of the legislature. Folk, for governor, was the only member on the state ticket to carry the city. Kansas City, Mo., Nov. 9. The indications are that Jackson county councillors are in Jackson county to be elected. Judge Wofford was the only man on their ticket that the democrats had any chance to pull through. Cowherd seems to have been defeated for congress, though probably by a smaller margin than the 1,100 the republicans had. He was the only democrat of Parker in nearly every precinct. He was the only democrat to carry Kansas City. His plurality is about 3,000. COLORADO. Denver, Col., Nov. 9. -Estimates this morning from scattering and incomplete returns indicate a plurality of over 10,000 or Roosevelt in office in 1945, and over 10,000 or state officers in doubt, owing to the large number of scratched ballots that have not been counted. The presidents outside of Denver Peabody received 10,068 votes and Adams 10,033. The scratched ballots in the entire state are estimated at over 40,000. Scratched ballots in Denver which have been voted in the Adams in the ratio of about two to one. Thus the democrats claim that Adams is elected governor by from 7,600 to 8,900 plurality, with a probability that the remainder of democratic state tickets is also elected. MARYLAND. Baltimore, Md., Nov. 9.—The vote in Maryland is very close. In Baltimore the indications are that there may not be a difference of votes. The counties return from the counties show unexpected republican gains, particularly in the western counties. Chairman Hanna of the republican committee claims that Maryland has undoubtedly gone republican. Official returns from the counties are still missing, and the result is close. In ballast 1990 arrests out of 319 give Parker, 299 majority. WISCONSIN. Milwaukee, WI, Nov. 9—The republicans carried Wisconsin for Roosevelt in the primary, but the factional tion that has been waged in the party, against 106,000 given for McKinley four years ago. Although the party has been waged against Gov. Gavin Locke, the party was against Gov. La Follette and thousands knifed him at the polls, he is re-elected. It was the large democratic vote he received that made it possible for him to win. The next legislature will be republican, but the democrats have made big gains. NEVADA. Reno, Nev., Nov. 9.-Indications are that Nevada is carried by Roosevelt by a few hundred, but the legislature is democratic on joint ballot, insuring the electors of the United States senate. Van Dusen, democrat, for congress, is probably elected. CONNECTICUT New Haven, Comm., Nov. 9.—Roosevelt sent the state, his plurality being estimated, the publican state ticket was also elected by a large plurality, not quite so large as the New Haven Register (Ind.) claims the state for Roosevelt by over 20,000, and by nearly as much, and the state ticket in New Haven by from 1,000 to 1,500. CALIFORNIA San Francisco, Nov. 9.—Incomplete returns from parts of the state indicate that McKinley nearly double that given McKinley four years ago. The chairman of the republican committee makes an estimate, which he cites as the active, of 75,000 plurality, and says it may reach 80,000. San Francisco, which gave McKinley 17,000 plurality in 1980, rolled up 18,000 in incomplete returns from 651 precincts out of 2,523 give Roosevelt a plurality of the republicans elected all eight candidates for congress, generally by large majorities. OREGON. Portland, Ore., Nov. 9.—The republican campaign managers place Roosevelt's majority in the state at from 35,000 to 45,000. In Portland scattering returns from a plurality of 3,800. Meager returns from the county show a republican landslide. WASHINGTON Seattle, Wash., Nov. 9.—Few figures on the result in Washington were available until the election, when a velt carried the state by 30,000, the largest plurality on record. Turner, democrat, for governor, ran well ahead of Parker, but Mead, republican, is elected by 6,000 MAINE. Portland, Me., Nov. 9.—Seventy cities and towns in Maine give Roosevelt 16,418. The same in 1900 gave McKinley 16,745, Bryan 8,841, Republican gain, 1,139. OHIO. Columbus, O., Nov. 9.—Estimates this morning are that Roosevelt's plurality will exceed all others ever gained before in state, and is placed at not less than 140.000. GEORGIA. Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 9. -The democratic majority is estimated in Atlanta Ga., between 35,000 and 40,000. All the democratic congressmen are elected. No contests. ARKANSAS Little Rock, Ark., Nov. 9.—All the democ- ratic offices for congress are elected in Arkansas. NEW HAMPSHIRE: Concord, N. H., Nov. 9.-Untabulated reports from 20 towns in this state show substantial republican gains for the national ticket. RHODE ISLAND. Providence, R. I., Nov. 9: Six districts in Rhode Island for president give Parker 349, Roosevelt 1,167; same in 1900, Bryan 245, McKinley 998. DELAWARE. Wilmington, Del., Nov. 9. - Roosevelt has carried Delaware by about 5,000, and the governor and concessions. The legislature will be overwhelmingly republican. TEXAS. San Antonio, Tex. Nov. 9.—Reurrs from Texas slow coming in. They indicate that the state will carry the state by a plurality of 200,000 for the electoral and state ticket; also that as nominees for com-mers are elected, and nearly all members of the legislature, NEW JERSEY Trenton, N. J., Nov. 9- Scattering returns show consistent republic gains, and indicate that Roosevelt has carried the state by a large plurality. IOWA Des Moines, Ia., Nov. 9.—Returns indicate that Roosevelt's plurality will be 125,000, and the entire state ticket will have about the same number. NORTH DAKOTA. Grand Forks, N. D., Nov. 9.—Incomplete returns show that Roosevelt's plurality will be 25,000 at least. Col.

Miss Rose Hennessy, well known as a poetess and elocutionist, of Lexington, Ky., tells how she was cured of uterine inflammation and ovaritis by the use of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. "DEAR MRS. PINKHAM: —I have been so blessedly helped through the use of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound that I feel it but just to acknowledge it, hoping that it may help some other woman suffering as I did. "For years I enjoyed the best of health and thought that I would always do so. I attended parties and receptions thinly clad, and would be suddenly chilled, but I did not think of the results. I caught a bad cold eighteen months ago while menstruating, and this caused inflammation of the womb and congested ovaries. I suffered excruciating pains and kept getting worse. My attention was called to your Vegetable Compound and the wonderful cures it had performed, and I made up my mind to try it for two months and see what it would do for me. Within one month I felt much better, and at the close of the second I was entirely well. "I have advised a number of my lady friends to use it, and all express themselves as well satisfied with the results as I was." —Miss Rose NORA HENNESSY, 410 S. Broadway, Lexington. Ky. The experience and testimony of some of the most noted women of America go to prove beyond a question that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound will correct all such trouble and at once, by removing the cause, and restoring the organs to a normal and healthy condition. "DEAR MRS. PINKHAM: — About two years ago I consulted a physician about my health which had become so wretched that I was no longer able to be about. I had severe backache, bearing-down pains, pains across the abdomen, was very nervous and irritable, and this trouble grew worse each month. The physician prescribed for me, but I soon discovered that he was unable to help me, and I then decided to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and soon found that it was doing me good. My appetite was returning, the pains disappearing, and the general benefits were well marked. "You cannot realize how pleased I was, and after taking the medicine for only three months, I found that I was completely cured of my trouble, and have been well and hearty ever since, and no more fear the monthly period, as it now passes without pain to me. Yours very truly, Miss PEARL ACKERS, 327 North Summer St., Nashville, Tenn." When a medicine has been successful in restoring to health more than a million women, you cannot well say without trying it "I do not believe it will help me."

ODD FACTS FOR FARM FOLK, ‘Tokay: and Syrian Grapes Grown in Northern Tdaho—All Grains sre Over Weight When Properly Grown by Irrigation—White Fiax Seed—Corn Wheat in Flace of Corn, visitors to find that tokay grapes grow in the United States. as tar north as Duluth, Minn, The particu- lar place where this may be done is Lewiston, Idaho, on the banks of the Snake river. Whatever is done along the Snake river in the matter of agri- culture and horticulture must be doue with irrigation, however. The remarkable things done under irrigation are portrayed by a number 07 states. Colorado has a reliet map of the Arkansas valley. Utah shows a diorama of one of her irrigated val- leys. California exhivits her products from lands worth a thousand dollars an acre. Oregon displays her beanti- ful fruits and grains from irrigated cistricts, while Idabo, her next door rejghbor, won twenty gold medals on her agricultural showing. The tokay grapes from Lewiston are only one of 62 varieties now success- fully grown at that far northern point where the climate is almost as mild as lialy, for the tokay cannot flourish where the winters are cold. Along with the tokay is a fine sweet grape from Syria, in which eyery grape and fruit grower will be interested. The name is Hunisa, or Antab late, from Antab. It is large, very dark, and a fine keeper, the last being its miost important quality. After traveling over 1,500 miles to the World's Fair il opened up in as fine condition as the tokay, and made a good show. These grapes are from the first vine of this variety fruited in America, Another fact not well known Is that grains gcown by irrigation in the cry atmosphere of the western slope of the Rocky mountains are much heavier than those grown in the east, and the yield is far greater. In the Idaho exhibit of the Palace of Agri- culture at the World’s Fair are many examples of irrigation results. A suck of oats was received at the ex- hibit a few days ago which was graded by one of the machines in the building and tested as to weight. It was found that the third, or poorest grade, weighed 88 pounds to the bushel, while the stafidard of weight for oats is only 32 pounds to the bushel. The yield is 100 to 110 bushels to the acre, and Idaho oats ordinarily weigh 42 to 46 pounds to the bushel. An acre of ir- rigated land yields about three times a5 much as an acre in a humid clf- mate. Wheat in southern Idaho is 62 to 64 pounds to the bushel, the stand- 27d being 60 pounds, and tue yield 50 to 70 bushels to the acre A bundle of alfalfa hay, second crop of 1904, biovght from southern Idaho, is a tall as a man, a six-footer. Five to seven tons to the acre are grown each season, it being cut usually three times. All over southern Idaho, which tor the most part is a vast desert, are cases that have been made fruitful by inrigation. ‘The liberal provisions of the Cary Act of Congress have made possible the reclamation of these lands, the state taking over the lands and disposing of them to settlers at 50 cents an acre, The water right is an extra cost, in some cases as iow as $25 an acre for a perpetual right, the first one or two crops often paying the entire cost of a fine property. Ouly a few days ago the state land board of Idaho threw open to settlement 100,000 acres of land under one canal at Twin Falls, on the south side of Snake river. It is In Cassia county, one of the counties that touch the Nevada border. In this instance the total cost per acre is $25.50, and uncer the liberal terms of the Cary Act entry may be qoade through another person. The payment is in easy installments. Many of the exhibits in the Idaho display are from along the Snake river, which is so named because of its sinu- ous course, and not because of any snakes. The water for the Twin Falls tract, which embraces 270,000 acres, Is fiom the Snake, and the cost of the 2,000 foot damand the 100 miles of main canals is about $2,500,000. A railroad is being constructed from Minidoka southward to cross the tract, which is expected to repeat the history of the Wood River Country, the Boise and Payette Valleys, and become a populous part of the state. ~ Idaho has the honor of showing in ber agricultural display something that very few farmers have ever seen, namely, white flax seed. This variety of flax originated in Idaho, and is said to possess great commercial pos- sibilities, because it is richer in oll snd produces a grade of very light colored ofl that is far more desirable for white paint than the darker grade, Idaho is trying to do what other raoantain states are attempting, that is, to supply the home market with fruits, vegetables, meats, grains and dairy produets.

God's command to the keepers of this temple of the body is: “Be ye holy, for I am holy.” Lev. ‘ir44; 19:2; 1 Pet, 1:15, 16; Matt, 5:48. ‘The King had a right to order the tem- ple repaired, nay, {t was his duty to so do.

Bournemouth, England, has become the cradle of a curious crusade, direct- ed against the comfortable practice of sleeping in church. The clerical gen- tlemen who have started it apparent. ly object to the habit om two grounds— imprimis, that from an aesthetic point of view even “sleeping beauties,” with an inclination to snore, are not at- tractive articles when viewed from the pulpit; end, secondly, that eomnolence in the congregation is discourteous to the preacher. In a discussion which took place among the local pastors on the subject, Rev. T. Evans remarked that a good many people thought it a sin to laugh in church, but deemed it ao harm to sleep there. Ministers ought tohave hand cameras, with whieh to take snapshots of dormant members of their congregation, and then pre- sent copies to them. If people could see themselves asleep in the pew as viewed from the pulpit, ft would give them many sleepless nights in thinking of the spectacle.—Troy Times. Seat ta eben eae One of the difficult problems in prac- tical mechanies is to make a “straight- edge.” Low difficult it is may be judged from an incident which oc- curred in the shops of J. A. Brashear, the astronomical instrument-maker, A customer asked Mr. Brashear what would be the price of “a perfect straight-edge of glass 26 inches long.” “It can't be made absolutely perfect,” said Mr. Brashear, “but it could prob- ably be made with a fimit of error amounting to only a fraction of a wave-length of light.” “How much would that cost?” “About $40,000!” It turned out that the customer want- ed the straight-edge for a scraper, and that an error of one-sixty-fourth of an inch would have beeninsensible for his purpose.—Youth’s Companion. Se an aa eee At a distance Holland, by reason of its flatness, may seem to be an ideal country for the eyclists, but as a mat ter of fact it is one of the worst in Lu- rope. This is owing to the fact that all the main high roads of the country are paved with brick sized stones, and the consequent jolting ts very disagreeable.

GANDER'S CO. MARINO Dr. E. C. Cole preached a wonderful sermon last Sunday to a large congregation. In the course of his remarks, he said: "When I walk down the streets of St. Louis, I see so many of my people standing on the corners idling. In fact, they seem to have no desire to work. This is a shame and a disgrace to the race, and I think that the time will come when the white people will rise up and run them out of town, just as they are doing, in other parts of the country. Barrocons and other resorts are full of them every day. Where is their living coming from? God knows. I want to see my people do better, and I am quite sure that we would receive better treatment from the white people if we were living as God would have us live. The twentieth removal anniversary of the First Baptist church commenced at the above church on November 2, and ended on Friday night, the 4th. It was the grandest affair held at that church for some time. A nice little programme was executed each night, at the conclusion of which an ice cream entertainment took place, and on Friday night a free supper was given to all present. The receipts from the cream and other sources amounted to $95. Brother Andrew Daniels, a good, honest and faithful member of the First Baptist church, departed this life at his home, 1610 Gay street, on November 2, at 1:05 p. m. He was a member of three different secret societies, the members of which turned out in large numbers. Dr. E. C. Cole, pastor of the First Baptist church, preached the funeral. A large crowd was present. Prof. J. Arthur Freeman, one of our city school principals, a noted educator, and organist at the First Baptist church, left this week to join an opera company in New York, in which he will tour this county and Europe for the next few years. May he have great success and his happy days be many. The financial rally which should have taken place at the First Baptist church last Sunday was postponed until the last Sunday in this month, when all the members and friends of said church are invited to come prepared to respond liberally. The B. Y. P. U. had an interesting meeting last Sunday at 5:30 p. m. The subject was: "Some of God's Promises That cheer us." The public is cordially invited every Sunday. Mr. Charles Bollinger, president. Mrs. Pauline Jones, of Bunker Hill, Ill., was in the city last Sunday on a visit to her friend, Madame M. A. Gilree, 3000 Lawton avenue. Rev. Dr. W. B. Carter, of St. Paul, Minn., will preach at the First Baptist church next Sunday, 11 a. m. Dr. W. P. T. Jones and wife were in attendance at the First Baptist church last Sunday morning. HENRY CLAY. A Great Picture of Henry Clay Speaking on the Missouri Compromise. J. W. Wheeler, the ex-politician, has just received an oil painting of the United States senate as Henry Clay made his famous speech on the Missouri compromise in 1850.
