' !(Copyrleht by Kins Fcaturea
Syndicate, 'Inc.)
You riiiict yesterday all about
(ho (jrcat elections, who won
mid lost, ehartres and counter
charges of fraud.
It will seem important until
tomorrow. The average voter
will not be able to tell you the
names of men for whom he
: voted with one or two excep
tions. ' but the 'country will go along
nicely. To a great extent a na
tion runs itself: The most im
portant tilings manage them
selves, without our direction,
.uside of our own bodies.
It is fortunate that it is so.
Wc soon tire of attending to
detail, and soon forget.
In Knoxville, Tenn., two
small boys in' red swelers, sat
in the domestic relations court
room, looking and wondering
at the judge and crowd.
Superior wisdom was to de
cide whether they should be
sent to live in the mansion of
a rich man or remain in their
grandparents' little farm house
at the edge of a Tennessee corn
field.
Those that love them prob
ably hoped they would go to
the millionaire's mansion.
Angels that sec into the fu
ture might wish, them to stay
near the corn field.
If Lincoln bad gone from Ins
'lather's little hut wlien be was
ii small boy, , to somebody's
Mansion in a big " city, you
would never have heard of Lin
coln. Twenty million homes in the
l.'uited States use electric cur
rent for light and power.
Home consumption of current
amounts to ten billion kilowatt
knurs.
Industry, turning more ami
more toward electrical energy,
consumes ninety-five billion
killowatt hours.
Power companies, particular
ly anxious to promote the do
mestic use of power, should
find a way to supply isolated
houses on some sort of reason
able installment basis, as auto
mobiles are . sold. Under the
present system, for instance, a
New Jersey power company
tells a farmer living half a mile
from its main line that it will
tyjst him $(iO() to run electric
current to his farm house and
cow barn. That is prohibitive,

. PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 7.
Wally Voges, 28, .a longshoreman,
l acked his wife to death with a
razor early today then attempted
to end his own life by cutting his
throat with the same death-dealing
weapon, according to police, who
were summoned by 15-year-old Vio
let Jurilh, who lived with the
Voges. The officers found the hus
band lying unconscious on the side
walk in front of his home. A trail
of blood led up live flights of
stuirs to the Voges apartment and
the dead body of Mrs. Jlary Voges.
The Jurith girl told the police
she was awakened by a heated
quarrel between the man and wife
that ended when she heard Mrs.
Voges say, "Why Wally. I'm afraid
of you."
The little girl crawled from her
hed in time to see the husband ad
vance upon his wife with the open
razor and slash at her throat. She
then ran from the apartment to a
police garage nearby. Alice, 3-year-old
daughter of tho couple slept
peacefully during tho affray.
Physicians who attended Voges
at the emergency hospital predict
ed he would not live.

(JP) The Ouatemulun minister of

eruption of tho volcano Snnta
Maria, that tho eruption haa
ceased. Heavy nhowera fell over
the entire urea yesterday.
Jfe wns not able to estimate
lows of human life or property
damage since many localities
! were still surrounded by molten

Some official quarters yester
day est limited the number of
dead at as high as 4 00.
One newspaper mi id authorltlcu
calculated as many us 45 deaths
from the disaster, with as much
ns $1,000,000 loss to the farms
through the molten lava. Twenty-one
bodies havo been recov

25,000 inhabitants in the affected
area.
Kleven persons injured in the
eruption were brought to the
nearby town of Han Kelipo with
bad burns on their faces and
! hands from steam which arose
when yesterday's rain fell on the

I bulls of ffro had fallen on
, ranches near tho volcano.
D. O. Kichardson, superinten

over the volcano area: "I saw
