The payment of monies due the Red Lake band of Indians, on stumpage sales has been going on at Red Lake ageney sincelast Monday, and it is probable that the ‘payment has been concluded, ere this. Parties who have been at the agency while the payment has been made state that there have been no disorders, and while it is believed that some small quantities of whisky have been smuggled into the reser- vation, unbeknown to the Indian police and Agent Bishop, on the whole the payment is much more orderly than any ever held at the agency. The Red Lakers have never been inclined to orgies near the agency because of the, close proximity of the agency -and the Indian police, but there have in the past been some disturbances at other points which were the direct result of the introduction of liquor. Pioneer of Shotley Country. Gus Fogelberg, one of the pioneer farmers of the Shotley district, and whose farm is near Foy postoffice, came down from the north this morning and spent today in Bemidji on business. Mr. Fogelberg was one of the very first homesteaders to locate in the country around Red lake, he having come into this section when it was necessary to “hike” from Blackduck north. He withstood the hardships of pioneer life and has prospered accordingly. Mr. Fogelberg called at the Pio- neer office this forenoon and renewed his allegiance to this greatly family necessity, saying of the Pioneer: “The Pioneer is much better than it used to be. It has improved con- siderably during the past three years. Ithink it is the best paper in northern Minnesota.” Mr. Fogelberg will return to his home this evening.

Johnson, Candidate for Mayor of Cleveland for the Fifth Time, Goes Down to Defeat. New York, Nov. 4—There is dense gloom in Tammany Hall. The tiger has suffered its most sweeping defeat at the polls since the greater city was established and the fact that New York city is no longer a Democratic stronghold was emphasized when the entire fusion ticket, with the excep- tion of the candidate for mayor, tri- wmphed by substantial pluralities. Former Justice William J. Gaynor, Wwho headed the Tammany ticket, is CHARLES 8. WHITMAN. [Elected district attorney to succeed William T. Jerome.] elected mayor by a plurality of not less than 70,000, but the victory is dne entirely to his personal popularity. He declares his independence of Tam- many and there is every likelihood that he will maintain that position, as it has been demonstreted that Tam- meny could not deliver the goods on the remainder of the city ticket. Loses Grip on Purss Strings. As a result of the eleetion the Re- publican-fusion forces will control ab- solately the board of estimate and apportionment, which will disburse ap- vroximately a billion dollars during the administration. This is more than half a defeat for Tammany, for the control of ths board of estimate was one of the principal issues of the cam- paign. In addition the Republican-fusion forces elected Charles S. Whitman district attorney of New York county, Who defeated George Gordon Battle, the Democratic nowinee, by 13,000 plurality, and John S. Shea for sher- iff over Christopher D. Sullivan, Dem., by 10,000. Hearst ran a poor race. Once de- feated in his contest for the mayor- alty agairst McClellan in 1905 he went down again with a total of less than 160,000, as against approximately 254, 000 for Gaynor and 174,000 for Ban- nard. The board of aldermen will be compesed of forty-two Democrats and {hirty-six fusionists. Election Results Elsewhere. In Cleveland the reign of Tom L. Johnson as mayor was ended by the election of Herman C. Baehr, the Re- publican nomines. Mayor Johnson was a candidute for a fifth term as mayor and the issues were purely local. In Cincinnati the Republican nom- inee of Boss Cox, Dr. Schwab, was elected mayor by an fncreased plural- 1sy. Brand Whitlock was the most nota- ble exception of the day to the defeat of independents. Jle was re-elected mayor of Toledo by sn estimated plu- rality of 2,500, a considerable loss over his plurality at the last election. In Tndianapolis, where the two old rties were fighting, machine against fnachine, “Tom” Taggart’s candidate for mayor on the Democratic ticket, Charles A. Gauss, was defeated by Samuel Lewis Shank, Rep., by a vote of 27,700 to 25,702. In Philadelphia Clarence Gibboney, head of the Philadelphia Law and Or- der lcague, was defeated by Samnel P. Rotan, the Republican nominee. Close in Massachusetts. In Massachusetts the gubernatorial election resulted in a victory for the Republicans, the entire state ticket be- ing elected by a narrow margin. Had the city of Boston given its usual Democratic plurality instead of falling off clese to 15,000 overn:r Draper ‘'would not have been elected and James H. Vahey, the Democratic can. didate, would have succeeded him. Draper was elected by the smallest plurality received by a Republican eandidate in twenty-five vears, Virginia ¢lected a Democratic gov: ernor and Rhode Island & Republican. In Indiana and Western and South- ern states prokiibition was the prin- cipnl jssue and the elections were closely contested. New Jersey voted for members of the legislature and reports indicate a Republican majority in both houses to gelect the successor to Senator Kean.
