fyM Wr
"Lady Smith Cherub," prize winning bull at Chicago show, and one of his admirers. When photographers wanted to photograph "Lady Smith Cherub," prize winning Guernsey bull, at the Chicago dairy show, the young miss in the picture with the animal insisted he was "just as gentle as can be." .But "Lady Smith's" keeper didn't agree, as the lead pole hooked to his ose will testify.
HARDING TO SPEND VACATION IN SMALL VILLAGE IN TEXAS CORPUS CHRISTI, TEX., Nov. 3 Point Isabel, Texas, where Senator Warren G. Harding has chc'sen to spend a vacation, is a small fishing village and watering place of some 400 inhabitants, on the Gulf of Mexico, southeast of Brownsville, and is the Southern most mainland point of the U. S. A narrow guage railroad connects the little city with Brownsville. Off shore a little more than a mile is the southern extremity of Parde Island, a narrow strip of land which skirts the Texa-s coast from Corpus Christi to the Rio Grande, about 120 miles. Point Isabel is famous as sr. sportsman's paradise. Fishing is excellent while adjacent marshes now abound in geese and ducks. Point Isabel also is noted for its oysters, edible the year round. -Redecorate Clubhouse. Hotel accomodations are meager, but an old clubhouse, unused for several years, probably will be put in ordr for Senator Harding's reception. During the Mexican war a part of General Taylor's army was landed at Point Isabel, and marched overland to Brownsville, then Fort Browne. Since that time the little port has had its uns and downs. Until the building of the. Brownsville railroad into the valley, sixteen years ago. light draught steamers landed at Point Isabel and provided communications with the outside world. People of the valley section contiguous to Brownsville, urged developement of Point Label as a deep water port. The project recently was recognized by an appropriation which will insure a harbor for vessels drawing fifteen feet, and citizens of the valley country have just subscribed for a bond issue to standardize the little railroad which connects Point Isabel with Brownsville. Welcome Senator As if to prepare a welcome for Senator Harding, Point Isabel today voted solidly for him, being one of the few southern towns to show him that honor. Brownsville nearby, is the home of R. B. Creager,' who seconded Senator Harding's nomination, at the Chicago convention. Brownsville, too went for the Republican candidate by 99 votes. AMERICANS IN PARIS CELEBRATE ELECTION (By Assoetntcd Press) PARIS, Nov. 3 Members of the American colony in this city enjoyed an old-fashioned American election party, the first one ever held in Paris, last night. Several thousand, including Hugh C. Wallace, American ambassador, and other embassy officials gathered at the theatre where election returns were flashed upon the screen by Paris editions of American newspapers. The bulletins were received at about 4 o'clock this morning, extra editions were issued by newspapers, but all were cautious in their statements relative to the election. Cautious Statements Most Journals simply said: "Harding clearly leading" The conservatism of Paris newspapers was due to the sudden change on the occasion of the last election in the United States, when for several days it was conceded that Charles E. Hughes had won. Some journals reminded their readers that the woman vote might produce a similar result this time and that Senator Harding's election, while apparent on the face of returns, could not be definitely assured. The Americans who gathered to receive reports of the election blew horns and whistles, cheered and sang songs such as "There'll be a hot time in the old town tonight," all of which helped them to feel they were "back home." SOCIALISTS, PLEASED WITH PARTY'S VOTE (By Associated Press) CHICAGO, Nov. 3 Socialist headquarters today expressed satisfaction over the showing made by the party in its effort to elect Eugene V. Debs president, although he is serving a term in Atlanta prison for violation of the espionage act. They said reports indicated that not only had the vote been increased for the national ticket, but that in some precincts socialist candidates had run even with Republican and Democratic
1ND WEDNESDAY, NOV. 3,
AT DAIRY SHOW candidates, while in New York they had elected four socialist members of the legislature, who had been ousted or resigned, and had added a woman member to that body. Otto Branstetter, national secretary, last night sent a telegram to Debs estimating that the total vote for socialist candidate for president would be nearly three million. The socialist, vote was heavy in Milwaukee, giving Victor Berger a lead for congress, from which he has been twice expelled. WILSON IS DEPRESSED; MAKES NO STATEMENT (By Associated Tress) WASHINGTON. Nov. 3. President Wilson was up early this morning and after breakfast spent some time on the south portico of the White House, enjoying a warming sun. White Hour-e officials said they did not expect the President to make, any ttatement today on the result of the election. Secretary Colby of the state department, declared hp was "disappointed and depressed. However," ho added, "I cannot, but feel a confidence that in some way and by some avenu", not at this minute disclosed, this country will act up to the highest con cent of duty." The Republican landslide in the solemn referendum on the league of nation has had no apparent affect on President Wilson's health. Rear Admiral Grayson, his personal physician, said today after a visit to the president at noon. Dr. Grayson said he found Mr. Wilson unaffected by the results. He added that the president had spent a good night. PENNSYLVANIA GIVES HARDING BIG BOOST PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 3 Senator Harding carried Pennsylvania yesterday by probably the largest plurality ever given a candidate in this slate. The whole Republican state ticket was elected by large pluralities and the Democratic representation from Pennsylvania in congress was reduced. Returns indicate' that Senator Harding's vote will exceed that given to Theodore Roosevelt in 1904, h n the colonel carried the state by 505.519, and may reach 600,000. Figures received from 3.552 districts out of 7,210 early todav showed: Mr. Harding fiS9,130; Cox 263,1 87. Complete figures from Philadelphia showed a plurality for the Ohio senator of 214.521. The vote in th city was: Harding 302.165: Cox 87.641. Eugene V. Debs, the Socialist candidate for president, polled 17.527 votes in Philadelphia a gain of 12,811 over the Socialist presidential vote of four years ago. Senator Penrose in 2.033 districts out of 7.219 received 515.669 as against 19S. 403 for John A. Farrell. his Democratic opponent, for re-election to the United States senate. Chicago Socialists Claim Bi Increase Over 1916 fRy Associated Pres) CHICAGO. Nov. 3. Socialist party natioral headquarters here this morning ciaimed 2.000.000 vo'p.-: in the conntry, more than three times what the party got in 1916. and more'than twice its record vo'e in the Debs campaign of 1912. The Socialists also churned the election of Victor Berger to concress in Wisconsin, and the election of eieht assembly men and one state senator in New York City Latest returns from Berger's district, however, show hlni .running more than 1.000 hehind his Republican opponent. Returns Held Up By South Dakota Storm SIOUX FALLS. S. D., Nov. 3 -Communication with northern and western South Dakota was cut off this forenoon as a result, of Monday's storm and virtually no new election figures were available.

WHOM WILL HARDING INVITE INTO CABINET? MEN ARE SUGGESTED
CHICAGO, 111.. Nov. 3. The election of Senator Harding to the presidency naturally brings to the fore speculation on the cabinet selections he will make before he Is inaugurated on March 4 next. Whether the president-elect has arrived at any decision respecting any cabinet appointment or has asked any one to accept a place in hi.s official Tamily is not known. This Is a ma ter which the candidate repeatedly said he would not consider seriously in advance of the election. When General Wood visited Marion shortly after the Republican convention and pledged all possible assistance to the man who liad defeated him for the nomination, it was re ported Senator Harding had asked the general to be his secretary of war in the event of Republican success at the polls. Neither the senator nor the general would affirm or deny the report. The suggestion of the appointment of General Wood to the war portfolio elicited widespread approval among Republicans. The State Portfolio There has been a good deal of speculation on the possible selections for secretary of state. Those most frequently mentioned are Elihu Root and Senator Knox, of Pennsylvania, both of whom have served as secretary of state, and Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts, who, as chairman of the senate committee on foreign relations, directed tie framing of the Lodge reservations to the Wilson league of nations covenant. Former Senator Root i3 widely regarded as the "master mind" of the Republican party and there is no doubt he is one of the foremost statesmen of the world. He was the author of the Republican platform plank on the treaty and the league of nations, later somewhat revised, and he was the American representative in the conference of world jurists who framed the plan for an international court of justice, an institution which many Republicans advocate as a substitute for the Wilson league. Root Maay Take Post. It has been suggested as not unlikely that Mr. Root would be appointed secretary of state, even if he were to occupy the post only long enough because of his advanced age, to go to Europe and negotiate with the other ! nations such an agreement as Sena tor Harding has suggested. His ap pointment, however, would arcuse considerable opposition among progressives and among irreconcilable foes of the league of nations idea and he might decline to serve, even if invited, on account of his age. Senator Knox is said to have no de sire to resume the portfolio of foreign affairs, preferring to remain in the senate. Senator Lodge, many believe would accept the post, which would provide an appropriate finale to his public life. The Massachusetts sen:, tor, however, also is advanced in ace and might not feel equal to the onerous tatk. Sutherland in Cabinet? Former Senator Sutherland of U,a,i. is another man who many believe will be found in the Harding cabinet. Uhas been at Marion throughout t'n campaign advising the candidate or matters relating to the league of nations and other issues. He is known as an authority on international law as well as a lawyer of conspicuous ability. Speculation J'.ns connected him with possible appointment as secretary of state or as attorney-gen- ' , Forrnor Senator John T. Weeks, of Ma?sachusetts. has been mentioned as a likely secretary of the navy. M. Weeks Is a graduate of the Annapolis naval academy and an authority or naval affairs. Job for Governor Lowden? Republican politicians, who reca't how Governor Lowden withdrew hiname from consideration by the rat ional convention and threw his strength to Harding, thus accomplish ing the nomination of the Ohio senator, are of the opirion that the Illinois governor can have a place in the cabinet if he wants it. George M. Reynolds, tho Chicago banker, has been mentioned as a pes nble choice for secretary of the treas ury. DEFICIT OF MILLIONS IN RAIL OPERATION WASHINGTON.
