JOHNSON'S MAJORITY-

Its all over now. The greatf-st contest ever known in the State was decided Thur.»day in Henry county, when the Republican canvassing board counted the votes and found that Henry Johnson had defeated James E. Watson in that county by 154 votes. The votes in the various townships were as follows: Township. Johnson. Wayne 381 Stoney Creek 74 Spiceland 194 Prairie 92 Liberty 96 fferson 88 Henry 829 Harrison 1®' Greensboro 180 Franklin Fall Creek 345 238 Dudley H9 181 Blue River 88 G®
Watson. 257 77 177 78 88 38 598 83 114 75
Total-, 2.018
2.172
Johnson's majority, lot. It will be seen that JohuSoh carried 10 of the 13 townships It was thought he bad carried 11, but Watson won Stoney Creek by 3.
The Republicans are all glad that the great contest is over, and even the Democrats rejoice, as one can now do business and take a little sleep occasionally. The Watson men at New Castle state that the correspondent's statement that there was talk of bolting the instructions of the county convention, was mjust and unfounded. They also claimed tiiat the charge that the inmates of the po house hud been voted soiid for Watson was not true, as four of them had vo:ei for Johnson.
The county committee after canvassing the vote, unanimously passed the following resolution introduced by Frank Siiively, of Prairie township: "RESOLVED, that Henry Johnson be accorded the honor of choosing the 86 delegates from this county, to the Congressional convention which meets in New Castle, April 16
One iatber amusing incident, which shows how uncertain politics is, came to light Thursday. The Watson men, who firmly believed their champion wonld be the \ictor, hid a large number of hat cards printed with the legend "And the next day it snowed." It was their intentions to don them that morning, but it wa^ n*it to be. Thc^ b-i'lgos were turned over to tha victors, and Johnson's men and not Watson's men—wjre them all day.
Now that the contest is over, everyone seems well satisfied. While a large number preferred the eloquent young man from Rushville, they all know that with Henry U. Johnson representing the old Sixth district it will have a representative second to none in ability, experience and eloquence.
THE HENRY COUNTY CANDIDATES. The fact that there were to be county candidates voted for, was entirely overlooks. They were voted for, however, and Wayne township (Knightstown,) scooped most of tbe offices. Those elec ted and their pluralities were as follows: Judge, W O Barnard, New Castle 300 Representative, E. L. Elliott, Middletown, 100 Treasurer, Ciark Gordon, Spiceland, 150 Prosecutor W. R. Steele, Knightstown, 250 Recorder, Mark Morris, Knightstown, 100 Sheriff, John James, Knightstown Commissioner, lower district, Waite Heaton, Kuightstown Commissioner, upper district, John W. Witworth, Honey Creek Coroner, Dr. C. Seward, Greeusboro, 300 Surveyor, U. S. Cook, New Castle, 250 Assessor, W. N Clift, New Castle
They are fairly good kickers at Knightsto »n, but if there is any murmuring this time about their share of the offices, they shonli be ashamed of themselves.

Miss Ca&n&*$" has been employs* bookkeeper at the Muncie iSnittfng Works and at tha time of the accident was on her way home from the factory. She was walking down the Big Four main track betveeu Walnut and Mulberry streets and failed to hear the approach of the west-bound locil. The engine struck her and passed over her liutbs before Engi neer Brote Hanua could stop the train. He leaped from the cab to her assistance and dragged her from under a car. Both feet were horribly mashed. It was reporte in a numler of papers that bonh were amputated and that Bhe would probably die, but such is not the case. It was, however, found necessary to amputate all the toes of one foot and two of the toes of the other. Mr. Hanna, the engineer, is an old Fortville boy, a son of George Hanua, and the Muncie News compliments him very highly on his gallant action at the time of tbe accident, He is one of the nicest engineers on the road and deeply regrets the accident. It orings tears to his eyes when he speaks of the accident and says the girl shall not want for anything when he has money.
Mttry Canniug WT»8 W©11 known in this city as a remarkably nice girl. was of a bright and happy disposition ami very indust rious. She was a source of much happiness to her parents and little Brothers ind sisiers. for one seldom met as good and true a girl as Slary Cannii.gShe w*s the daughter of C. C-. Canning foimerly superintendent of the bottle works here. While all deeply regret the accident, they are glad that it is not so seiious as at first repotted.
