Z n ForfEOOd printing t f all kinds Th Review always leads. II. O. Lewis goes to Portland on business tonight. Plaintiff Mrs. H. Eatsou, Whose Son Was Electrocuted While at Work on Top of Pole, J. L. and S. A. Kendall, owners of Roseburg's water and light systems, are joint defendants in a damage suit filed In the circuit court here as a sequel to the death by electro cution in this city last September of James Easton, aged 20 years, a lineman in the employ of tbe Pacific States Telephone and Telegraph Com pany. The plaintiff is Mrs. H. Bast-! on, mother of the dead boy, who al leges In her complaint that she has been damaged by the loss of her son to the extent of $20,000. The amount for which she is suing, how ever, is the statutory limit of $7,500. Cardwell & Watson are her attorneys. At the time of his death, young Easton was at- the top of a pole re pairing a sagging telephone wire leading Into the residence of Senator Albert Abraham. Directly across the street was another pole support ing live electric wires, underneath which the telephone wire was strung. After severing the sagging wire, Easton pulled it taut with a sharp jerk, striking It against the electric wire, and the current thus formed instantaneously sent a fatal shock through Easton's body. The damage stilt just instituted alleges that the electric wire which caused Easton's death was Improperly Insulated. The coroner's jury which investi gated the case returned a verdict holding the telephone company at fault in maintaining its wires .in such close proximity with the elec tric light wires. A casualty com pany in which young Easton carried $2,000 life insurance refuses to liquidate on the ground that electro cution is not one of the forms of death specified in the policy. This company may also be Bued. Other Cases. Harness & Johnson, the local gro cery firm, have sued A. T. Arant for $00.60, alleged to be due on a bill of goods. Judge. Hamilton has Issued a writ of mandamus upon J. S. Gaither, as justice of the peace at Myrtle Creek, commanding him to appear before him on November 11, at 1 o'clock p. m., and show cause, if any, why he refused to allow an appeal and honor a stay bond on an execution which he issued in favor of Mary B.

Special to The Evening Review. WASHINGTON, D. C Nov. 1. Though full state tickets are to be voted for only In three states tomor row, there will be scarcely a Com monwealth of the Union without its election of minor officials, municipal or congressional contests or a ballot on proposed constitutional amend ments to occupy Its attention. The states which are to choose governors and other Btate officials are Massa chusetts, Rhode Island and Virginia, Politics - In Massachusetts and Rhode Island loom up unusually large for an off year. Governor A. J. Pothler Is the Republican candidate for re-election In Rhode Island. The Democrats have nominated Olney Ar nold, a Providence manufacturer, who was defeated by a narrow mar gin a year ago. In Massachusetts Governor Draper and Lieutenant Governor Krothlngham head the Re publican ticket for a second term. Arrayed against them on the Demo. cratlc side are James H. Vahey, who was unsuccessful a year ago, and Eugene N. Foss, a wealthy manufac turer and a former Republican. Al leged extravagance in the manage ment of slate affairs forms the chief issue in the Massachusetts contest. In Rhode iBland the fight hinges on the question or reapportionment and several proposed changes In the sys tem of government. (1. O. 1 Uvea on Virginia. In Vfrglna, the governorship, along with other official places, Is at stake and the question Is what strength the Kcpunlicans will be able to disclose, after a most aggressive campaign and with tho National Administration doing nil In Its power to help along the movement to break up the Solid South. The fight on the governor ship is the one which Is being most discussed. Judge Illlam H. Maun heads the' Democratic ticket. The i Republican candidate Is William P. tveiu. iue nepuuncHii leauers are making roseate predictions of carry ing the state. The more sober judg ment of well informed politicians is that this Is not to be expected, but that It Is possible the Democratic majority may be cut Into heavily. Disfranchisement in Maryland. In Maryland, the amendment to the constitution to disfranchise col ored voters Is the Issue that Is attract ing notice. The Republican leaders are fighting the amendment tooth and nail and they profess great con fidence that they will defeat it. If they do it will result in piecing Maryland In the doubtful column politically instead of making it solid ly Democratic. In their fight the Re publicans claim to have the support of the Independent voters and th foreign born citizens. On the other hand, the Democrats are relying prin cipally on the rural vote, which Is almost solidly In. favor of disfran chising the negroes, to carry the amendment to victory. Contests in Other States, In New York state two Justices of the Supreme Court are- to be elected and the fate of several constitutional amendments of minor Intrest will he decided by the voters. Pennsylvania will elect an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court, State Treasurer and Auditor General. Minor state offi cials will be voted for In Nebraska and one or two other states. In nearly all of the states where the elections are held tickets have been placed in the field by the Prohibition ists and Socialists, but neither party is expected to figure prominently In the results. New York Kljrht Overshadows All. Of more Interest throughout th country than even the state elections Is the mayoralty contest In New York City. Again it Is the story of Tarn many and anti-Tammany. Again there is a three-cornered right In volved In the elemental situation with William R. Hearst, running as an Independent candidate, against prime factor as he was In the laBt municipal campaign In the metropo lis. The Tammany candidate Is William J. Gaynor, who personally has been an opponent of ring organi sation throughout his career. The Republican organization, after vain efforts to work out a fusion program, nominated for mayor Otto T. Ban nard, a financier of standing, a man with a clean record, but one who never has been aggressively engaged in politics. The result ot the three cornered fight cannot be forecasted with any degree ot certainty. Today, on the eve of the election, each side is claiming victory by pluralities ranging from 50,000 to 100,000 votes. Gaynor may win but the fuslonists will control the council. Many Cities to Vote. Interesting municipal contests will be decided in numerous large cities throughout the country. In Phila delphia a bitter -contest is on for the district attorneyship and two minor offices, with a strong Independent movement against the dominant Re publican organization. While the contest is named by the independents fight tor civic righteousness," it is a fight between the identical ele ments that clashed in 1905, with Stute Senator James P. McNichol, political boss, on one side, aud D. C. Gibboncy, independent Democratic candidate for district attorney, ou the other. As the district attorneyship is regarded politically aB the moBt important office outside the mayor alty, thiB is regarded as a contest of greater Importance than that ot tour years ago, when the Republican or ganization was defeated by 48,000 maiority. The contoBt lu San Francisco is similar in many respects to that In Philadelphia. The light binges on the district attorneyship, with the continuation of the graft prosecution as the most Important issue. Dis trict Attorney Francis J. Heney, who conducted the graft prosecution, 1b a candidate for re-election. He Is op posed by Chai loB-M. Fickert, who was nominated on the Republican ana Union Labor -tickets. William Crock er Is running for mayor on the Re- oubllcan ticket and Dr. T. W. B. Le- land is the Democratic candidate. The Union Labor party has Its own mayoralty candidate In the person of P. H. McCarthy. Mayor Tom L. Johnson, of Cleve land, Is a candidate for his fifth consecutive term, and 1b opposed by Horman C. Baehr, the Republican candidate. In Cincinnati an interest ing contest iB on for the mayoralty between Dr. Louis Schwab (Repub lican) and John Weld Peck (Demo crat). Mayoralty contests In other cities of Ohio and In New York and New Jeraey present more or less In teresting features. Boston does not elect a mayor, but the voters will decide upon the choice of two plans looking to non-partisan government. Topeka will accept or reject a plan for the commission form or government. In the Second Washington district a Representative In Congress will be elected to succeed the Into Francis W. Cushman. Tho Republicans have nominated Judge W. W. Mc Credie. of Vancouver, and the Demo crats have named Ernest Lister, of Tacoma. 'Illomly llrentliltt" Hustles. NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 1. Gov ernor 'Willson, of Kentucky, Is route to Frankfort In order to be closer to the threatened trouble In Breathitt county at tomorrow s elections. JACKSON, Ky., Nov. 1. With the court house In possession of armed men under the leadership of the Democrats, two nearby buildings sheltering more armed men of the same faction, and the swearing In of 50 deputies this afternoon, the Bltnatlon here over the coming county election became so acute to day that many, leading Republicans left town. The deputies sworn In are alleged to be In aympathy with the liquor Interests. Liquor Issue 111 Illinois. CHICAGO, Nov. 1. Illinois' con tribution to the nation-wide political excitement which reaches ltB climax tomorrow, will come from bitter and slashing contests over the saloon in 33 villages and cities. Twenty-three of these places are now dry and the liquor Interests are fighting des perately to regain lost ground. Jacksonville Is the largest city which Is voting on the saloon ques tion. Two years ago the city voted dry by 775 majority, and this year the Anti-Saloon people claim victory by 1000 majority, although there Is a mighty battle on. FORESTRY OFFICERS CONVENE IN ROSEBURG.
