VOLUME 6. NUMBER 168. WILL GET COMPLETE ELECTION RETURNS The Pioneer and Northwestern Tele- phone Exchange Will Co-Operate in Giving Election Returns. RETURNS WILL BE TABULATED AND READ AT MARKHAM HOTEL Will Cover the National, State and County Contests in a Very Com- plete Manner. The Daily Pioneer, in conjunction with A. E. Harris, local manager for the Northwestern Telephone Exchange company, have made arrangements to furnish election returns Tuesday night on the most elaborate plan ever attempted in this part of the state. The Pioneer has arranged with the Western Union telegraph com- pany for the full returns of that company and the Northwestern Tele- phone company, through Mr. Harris, will give their complete returns. The returns will cover the national, state and county tickets and will be complete in every particular. The telephone company will give the service of its lines all Tuesday night, and until the hour of opening Wednesday morning, free of charge, to those who desire to telephone in returns from towns in the vicinity of Bemidji. The company has also suspended all business Tuesday night in order | that returns from the state and national contests may be given in the widest scope. The combined returns of the Pion- eer and Northwestern Telephone company will be bulletined in the Markham hotel, where Manager Lycan has made arrangements to handle the returns in an expeditious manner. It is the expectation of the tele- graph and electrical experts who will handle the returns tomorrow night that something definite will be known early. Many large cities in New York and Indiana have voting machines which tally the vote every hour, so that within ten minutes after the polls close it will be known who is ahead, Taft or Bryan. The political tally clerks have picked out Indianapolis and Buffalo as the two large centers where returns are first to be recorded. Four years ago President Roose- velt heard that he had carried Buffalo by an immense majority before he had sat down to his 7 o’clock dinner at the White House after returning from Oyster Bay, where he had voted and before the the polls closed in San Francisco and while they were still rolling upa Roosevelt majority official news reached the Pacific coast that New York had gone 170,000 republican. The vote in Indianapolis the home of Vice-president Fairbanks and John W. Kern, should be known by 7 oclock, Eastern time. It is claimed that as Marion county, which contains the city of Indian- apolis goes, so goes the state, and as the state goes so will Ohio and and New York go thus determining the general outcome early in the| evening. Indiana is always on the winning side in national elections. It has votéd for the winner in every elec- tion since the birth of the republican party with the single exception of 1876 when Henericks carried his state, and this exception to the gene- ral rule does not really count as a precedent. Hallow’en Party. Miss Bertie Bell of this city gave a Hallowe’en party at her home on Minnesota avenue Friday evening to which ten couples, wearing fools’ caps, were invited. Fortune-telling and other Hal- lowe’en pranks sped the evening merrily. Excellent refreshments were served to the guests at 11 o’clock and the party broke up at the midnight hour, all declaring that they had greatly enjoyed the evening.
