Reform Candidates Win in Two Ohio
Cities—Elections Held in Many
States and Cities Throughout the
United States.
Cleveland, O. —Elections were held
<on November 2 in many states
and cities throughout the country,
with varying results, there being no
national issue involved to bring about
concerted party action.
In Massachusetts the returns indi
cate that Gov. Eben Draper, Republi
can, had been re-elected over James
H. Valley, Democrat, by a greatly re
duced majority, estimated at 10,000.
In Rhode Island, Gov. Pothier, Re
publican, was re-elected over Olney
Arnold, Democrat, by a substantial
majority.
In New York City, which has been
the storm center of the state, Tam
many Hall scored a decisive triumph
in the mayoralty election. Judge Wil
liam A. Gaynor, the Democratic nom
inee supported by Tammany, rolling
up a plurality of. upward of 70,000 over
Otto T. Bannard. Republican, who in
turn led William R. Hearst by approx
imately 25,000.
New York state elected an assem
bly that will show a Republican ma
jority of about 38,
In Buffalo, Louis P. Fuhrmann,
Democratic candidate for mayor, was
•elected by a plurality of 1,245 over
Jacob J. Siegrist, the Republican can
didate. '
In Philadelphia, another battle
ground on reform issues, Samuel P.
Rotan (Rep.) was elected district at
torney over D. Clarence Gibboney, rep
resenting the Law and Order society
and the reform element. Rotan's ma
jority exceeded that in a previous re
form campaign, being estimated at up
ward of 30,000.
Meager returns from San Francisco
indicate the defeat of Francis J.
Heney and the election of McCarthy,
the union labor candidate, for mayor.
The Pennsylvania state elections
for treasurer, auditor, general and
justice of the supreme court resulted
in the usual Republican majority.
In Indianapolis, where the temper
ance issue has figured, Lewis Shank
<Rep.) is elected over Charles A.
Gauss (Dem.)
Elections in New Jersey went al
most equally both ways. Interest prin
cipally hinged upon the battle for the
mayoralty of Jersey City, where
Pagan, the new idea Republican cham
pion, was probablv beaten by Otto
Wittpen, the Democratic incumbent.
In Virginia the early returns indi
cate that the Democratic ticket, head
ed by Judge Mann, for governor, had
been elected by about the usual ma
jority.
Slow returns from Baltimore indi
cate that the constitutional amend
ment aimed to disfranchise the negro
has been deefated by more than 20.-
000. The foreign born element in
Baltimore city voted strong against
the amendment, fearing it would im
peril their franchise as well as that of
the negro. The legislature appears to
be safely Democratic, insuring the re
election of Isadore Rayner as United
States senator.
Local elections in Kentucky, as had
been promised by the warlike moves
of the rival factions, was marked for
bloodshed and in Brealiitt county, the
seat of the feudists, one man was shot
and killed at a polling place.
The "drys" of Illinois won another
victory. Of 33 precincts in which local
option was before the voters the anti
liquor advocates carried 28, an in
crease of four precincts over two
years ago.
Reform Candidates Win in Two Ohio
Cities.
Columbus, O. —George S. Marshall
<Rep.) was elected mayor after a bit
ter campaign by a plurality of close#o
4,000. The entire Republican ticket
was elected with the possible excep
tion of C. 11. Smith for treasurer, who
was openly fought by the organization
headed by Malcolm Karshner, mem
ber of the Republican state committee
from Franklin county. The Republi
cans will control the new city council
a decisive majority.
The hand of Cox appears to have
lost little of its grip on the city on the
Ohio river, for the ballots so far count
ed there indicate that Dr. Louis
Schwab (Rep.) has been chosen
mayor. In voting thus the people of
that city refused to accept the serv
ices of John Weld Peck, the young
lawyer running on the Democratic
ticket, whose campaign was made
strictly one of reform. His attack
was always against the Cox machine,
Beheads Wife and Child; Suicides.
Pottsville, Pa. Demented through
worrying over his inability to
make a success of his business, Dan
iel Schoke, a butcher, who lived at
Pine Grove, near here, beheaded his
■wife and 12-year-old daughter with a
butcher knife and then committed sui
cide by shooting himself. Schoke was
55 years old. He was of rather pecu
liar and unsteady disposition and seV*
eral times failed in business, but his
relatives came to his assistance each
time and started him in business
agair
and with tin- organization they had
this year the Democrats of the city
had some hope of defeating the boss
who so long lias dictated affairs to the
voters of all parties.
In Youngstown Democratic Mayor
('raver is elected by a reduced plural
ity over Paul Jones, the former Mich
igan football player and Reserve
coach. Mayor Turnbull of Canton has
been carried back into olllce by the
Democrats by a large plurality.
Dougherty, his opponent, conceded
Turnbull's election.
Akron, O. —The early election re
turns indicate the re-election of Mayor
W. T. Sawyer (Dem.) by 2,000. The
first ten precincts showed an average
gain of 20 to a precinct for him over
two years ago, when City Solicitor C.
I<\ Berry, his opponent, was defeated
by 1,045.
Dayton, O. The Democrats scored
a sweeping victory here, electing May
or E. E. Burkhart and the entire tick
et 'vith the possible exception of the
clerk of the police court. The Demo
crats claim a plurality of 5,000 for
Burkhart, and the election of the city
council and municipal ticket.
Toledo, O. — Brand NVhitlock is re
elected mayor of Toledo for a third
term. Early returns from the down
town precincts, where his adversary,
David T. Davies, was expected to be
strongest, showed such slight gains
that all hope of overcoming Whit
lock's plurality of '6,500 in 1907 was
abandoned and both Republican or
gans acknowledged the election of
Whitlock, but claim the rest of th«
ticket. Whitlock probably will have
over 4,000 plurality.
Cleveland, O. —Herman C. Baehr
was elected mayor of Cleveland. A
plurality of at least 5,000, growing
with the later returns, seems to have
swept every Republican candidate in
with Baehr. Newton D. Baker gave
his opponent the hardest fight of all,
and has probably been elected over
Dalil for city solicitor. The city council
will be overwhelmingly Republican,
with 25 members of that party and
seven Democrats for members.

CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1909.
For the Hostess
Chat on Interesting Topics of Many Kinds, by
a Recognized Authority
A Harvest Home Party. .
In Sweden they make a ceremony of
bringing in the last sheaf of wheat
signifying that the "summer is over
and the harvest ended." With this in
mind, a hostess who is noted for her
originality issued invitations for a
"Harvest Home" party at her place in
the country. It Is now quite the thing
uot to return to town until the first of
November, so the beautiful foliage
and the glories of autumn are enjoyed
to th» full. At this party, which was
given last year, too late to get in the
department owing to the fact that it
must be made up several weeks in ad
vance, the house and spacious ver
andas were literally covered with gor
geous oak and maple leaves, as was
the lower floor of the great barn
where dancing took place at eight
o'clock. The hours were from five to
ten, which just permitted the making
of trains to and from the city.
A novel feature was the playing of
the band composed of the workmen on
the place. They were mostly Ger
mans, and as each department had
its own foreman with helpers the or
ganization was quite complete as well
as unique. They played for the dan
cing. and to a most stirring march
they led the gay party to the last
sheaf of wheat in the field. It was
laid in the pony cart belonging to the
ten-year-old daughter of the house,
who drove the prettily decorated
pony into the barn, where the sheaf
was placed in the middle of the clean
ly swept floor and the hostess paid a
tribute to Ceres, a health being drunk
in mulled cider made on the place and
served by the hostess. After a supper
of fried chicken, boiled ham, hot muf
fins, rice and tomatoes cooked to
gether with shrimp, which the colored
cook said was "Jumbalaya," tea, cof
fee, Macedoine of vegetab'e, salad
and pumpkin pie, the dancing began
After a few informal dances there
was what the hostess called a "Farm
ers'" cotillon, because all the figures
pertained to work on the farm, and
the favors consisted of big straw hats,
sunbonnets, whips, milking stools, tin
pails, spades, rakes, hoes, etc. It was
all very original and pretty. Cider
frappe was on hand for the dancers.
A Geographical Party.
This was given by a gay party of
young people and all pronounced it a
success. The invitations had the
usual day, date and hour, with the
lingle given, which explained a wee
bit the character of the affair, or, as a
youth aptly expressed it, "what you
were up against."
All guests who want to win a prize
Should on the atlas Blue their eyes.
Brush up their knowledge, cram their
pates
With abbreviated states'
With maps of many n foreign clime.
And rlvc-rs they must putin rhyme.
The first stunt was to read the fol

blanks with the abbreviations of the

the blanks correctly filled for the ben
efit of the hostess.
A handsome (Md.) fell In love with a
(Miss.) whom he attended.when she was
(111.), and who was sweeter than any
Ilower of the (Del.). He asked her hand
In marriage, but her (Pa.) wished her
to wed his war time friend, the (Col.),
who was rich, but who looked as if he had
come out of the (Ark.). So he put the

the matter (Ore.). But the lover pressed
him. and said: "(Wy.) will (U.) not give
(Mo.) an answer?" The father, being a
Yankee, answered his question hy ask
ing another, "(Kan.) you support a
wife?" ami added bluntly that lie feared
his daughter would have to (Wash.) for
her living, should she marry so poor a
man. The young man replied: "Although
T am poor, (Io.) No man, and I (Wis.) I
could support my wife, (R. I.) would not
marry." When he met Ills sweetheart
next morning at early (Mass.) and told
her of the Interview, she said: "(La.) X
could love you no (Mo.) had you all the
wealth of (Ind.)." So they were married
at (Tenn.) o'clock and the husband got
(Ariz.) in his profession, and there is (O.)
to keep them from being happy.
After this came a map-drawing con
test. The guests were handed large
sheets of paper with pencils and told
to draw any country they chose, with
a few principal rivers, mountains and
cities; to write their names and the
name of the country on the back and
pin the paper on the wall. Then all
had to guess what was what. The
one who guessed the most correctly re
ceived a prize. Slips of paper were
then passed containing the names of
two rivers, which were to be woven
into a rhyme. The results were read
aloud and were very amusing. Float
ing island and small sponge cakes
were served The prizes were inter
esting foreign prints framed in plain
wooden mouldings.
