"Hero's n marked ballot, vonr Honor; here's n marked ballot," he said excitedly to Judge Audenried. William Seizes, Judgc'of elections in the division, explained that his ten-jear-old son hnd done the mark ing when the ballots lay on a table at home. Forty-five spoiled ballots marked foi J. Hampton Moore were icturned by the election board of the twentj -first divi sion of the First ward. ' This was disclosed nt the aftcinnon session of the primary return court, -Judges Audenried and Ferguson presid ing, in Councils' fumiice committee chamber at City Hall. The judges ordered the judge of elec tions for the division nnd other election officers to appear before them Monday 'and explain how it happened that so many ballots were Rpoiled. The division returned a total of sixty -five ballots. The forty-seven that were polled had been thrown out- because they were marked for other candidates besides Mr. Moore. One of the spoiled 'ballots had a mark after the names of 'all the mayoralty candidates Moore, Patterson, Parker and Stackhouse. t; '-Considered Varo Stronghold The twenty-first division is in the territorv thnt linn nlwavR been cnnsiilerpil (-"ffYare, ettonghold.

Not only did Watson run the polling place, according to Salta's charges, but at 2 o'clock in the afternoon started to make out the tally beet. During the day, the citizen as serted, illegal assistance had been given o forty voters. Salta therefore demanded that the entire return of this election board fiethrown out. , After listening to Salta's charges, (he Judges ordered the count of the Thir teenth division to be held up until Monday morning, nnd sent word to the judge of elections there and other mem bers of the board to appear before the Witrt to explain their bide of the taee.

Every one Is so kind and so hospitable that if you are tired jou may easily forget it. "I am sorry my stay at this time must be brief, said the Cardinal. "Hut, then, that makes so much more for me to s'ec on the next visit." As the train pulled out mnny station hands and men working along the tracks removed their hats.

PRICE TWO CENTS JOHNSON STILLS "FINOS" VOTE I Quits Wilson Trail to See Who I Helps to Knife Treaty I Amendment ECHO OF OMINOUS BALLOT SURE TO BE HEARD IN 1920 Too Much Presidential Timber in Senate Committee Causes Some Double-Crossing I H CLINTON W. GILBERT i Man" Ccirreapondent of the Kvenlng 1'ublte ledger Washington, Sept 20 The new finm Dultitli thnt Senator Johnson ha l taken Senator Borah's advice and de cided to come home nud be present at the sad ending of his league covenant amendment showi how seriously he lakes the situation It ma make seernl statesmen suffer keenly to have him here at the death. Thej were going to "let the Democrnt kill it," but their grief over its fate was moderated by the consideration that Senator Johnson, alone among the sena torial candidates for the Republican , nomination lor tlie presidency, was making progress among the people. Still 'the would rather have spared him the painful sight. Pnes Up Ills Tr -Out Senator Johnson cares so much to sec how the end is accomplished that he is willing to abandon his San Fran cisco reception, the climax of his pres ent trip, which wns to lime been his tij-out as a presidential candidate. lie may go back ou the stump, but thnt climnx will neer come ngnin. The moment for it will pass with the kill ing of the Johnson amendment, and Mr. Johnson gues it nil up to be here nnd see with his own eyes. lie wants to make n few notes, "see what a rent the envious Casca tore," to file away in his political cabinet. The stuffing of the foreign relations committee with candidates for the Re publican nomination for the presidency has borne its inevitable fruit. Johnson, aided by Borah, who is residuary lega tee in the coming convention, will be the most aggressive men in it, and surest of their policy committee. Springboard for Presldency The committee has served as a spring Hoard for a Republican seeking the nomination and for the wrong one. It was blind politics nnd has produced, from the tandpoiut of the mass of th Republican leaders, if there are any such, an unhnppj icsult. Their true tactics should have been to keep John son In the background, on minor com mittees, as the j did nt hrst But they hated Wilson nncl wanted to use John son's force, which is the greatest pos sessed by ani single Republican in the Senate, against the President. They hne done so. Now thej do not know which is worse to contemplate, Wilson or Johnson. The situation is such thnt Johnson's friend, Borah, telegraphs him tn come home and see the thing himself with his own ejes. You sec the first signs of the division thnt mny 'ome thnt all men have (feared in the Republican party In 1020. It is on! a rift now. It may be a chasm next jenr, nncl Mr. Lodge and his friends arc responsible for what ever may happen. If they hne given j Johnson just the stnrt, the odor of sane- in unci ivcpiiuiicuu rviH-ciuuiiiij mat is neccssarj to make him the 1020 can didate, the) have created a nice situa tion for next car, with Johnson or record within n year for the govern ment ownership nf rallwujs. If thev can still hold Johnson in check by combination and manipulation, by the tactics thnt the senator evident! sus pects in some degree now, they will still hne crented a nice situation, at least a nntlon-wide direct primar cam paign of much decisive force, nnd, be it lemembered, thnt Johnson is relent less, the onl two fisted fighter ou the Republican side. Who Ije Johnson's Friend? Who is Johnson's friend?" ought to become ns famous a query as the question "Beau Brummell once asked some one apropos of the Prince of Wales of his da "Who is your fat friend" The seuatoi has two friends In the Senate One, Senntoi Borah, and the other. Henatoi Knox, One advises him tn hurrj back to Washington nnd look out for the fate of his own Johnson amendment t the league covenant, rank lug American representation in the league eiiual to that of the British cm pne The other advises bun to go right on to the Pacific coast, especially as President Wilson has just had a fine reception there, and the further fact thnt In spite of nil the pother in Wash ington over Shantung, the league is par ticularlj strong on the Pacific coast. Senator Johnson is n candidate for the Republican nomination for Presi dent, not openly and avowedly, the open season for candidates, not yet having arrived. Senator Borah is equally a candidate m the same sense. The other is not behind these two in aspirations. Who is JohnsQu'B friend?
