DEMOCRATS HOPE TO WIN IN duckto wn victor y MA Y EXTEND TO WEST Government TurnsTo- ward Butte, Mines Montana. Should the state of Georgia win the l( ., ond and final phase of the ault pend ing in the supreme court of the United states against the Tennessee Copper Company and the Ducktown mines It will probably result In the Federal au thorities forcing $60,000,000 worth of copp‘*r mines In and about Butte, Mont., to close down or adopt some plan to prevent the destruction of veg etation by the fumes from the smelt- Thts case iof the state against the Tennessee Copper Company Is unique in that It is the first time in the his tory of the United States that a state lias been given the right to sue an in dividual. and in the decision handed down Monday an important precedent was set when that tribunal held that (Jeorgia had a right In its sovereignty to enter the supreme court to secure the suppression of the fumes of smelt ers located at Ducktown, Tenn. 'Hie final hearing of the case Is set f.»r February 25 next. The state asked for a temporary', restraining order, .-Peking to have the smelters close down until the final hearing was completed. This restraining order was denied.

A Famous Suit. This suit Wi£s filed against the Ten- nwsce Copper Company ubout a year ago by Attorney General John C. Hart, who has been depending wholly upon l.lg«n Johnson, of Atlahta, In charge of the litigation. Mr. Johnson has been marm1.v congratulated upon’ the suc- <<•-* «*f his efforts In securing this Im portant decision,, .which will meqn a great deal to the. copper miping inter ests «*r America. • The property at Ducktown Is esti mated to be worth only about $5,000,- 000, while that In and near Butte. Mont., Is said to be {worth at least $60,000,000. The government sent Its experts to.Ducktown soon after the suit was brought and an Investigation was made of the effects of the fumes on plant life. A full report was made to the bureau of statistics at Wash ington and will be used In probable future cases. These same experts have gone to Butte, Mont., to make a similar investi gation in thdt territory. For miles around the Butte copper rnneltecs there is not a blade of grass or a green leaf of any sort so thorough has the pois onous fumes done their work. Should any action be taken by tho Federal au thorities the stock market will be af fected through Amalgamated Copper, one of the most Important stocks quot ed on the New York Exchange, and other mining Interests now on the boards. The status of the case at present Is wholly In favor of the state winning out In the final decision. It only re mains for Attorney Johnson to prove Injury. The result of the Investigation of the Federal experts and the data collected by them will be of much Im portance as evidence in , the second and last phase of the case. The effect of the decision will be far-reaching and the ; result* will be watched with interest. LITTLE “SPLITTING” DONE BY VOTERS Detroit, Mich., Nov. 6.—Tho weather, coupled with the keen Interest in the mayoralty race in the contest over the Codd-Hutchins,, ordinance, served to bring,’ out a big early, vote.

I. Nov. 6.—With the weather clear and cold, election day in Rhode Island Is the greatest and most enthusiastic ever known In the state. Mayor Janies H. Higgins, .of Paw tucket, Democratic candidate for gov ernor, said today after he had cast his ballot: “I am confident of victory. I have never doubted it since the beginning, and now I feel more confident than ever. The great vote that will be poll ed for the Democratic ticket will bo a mighty rebuke to the ring rulers who have held the state house’in their dead ly grip for years/’ Judge Robert Fitzsimmons, chairman of the Democratic state committee, was tlie first to cast his vote in his home town of .Lincoln. He said: "Mayor Higgins is going to be elect ed governor by a splendid majority, and he will cany the whole ticket with ldm. There is no doubt of that; even our friends, the Republicans, admit it novy. The Democratic party will also send a majority to the legislature, cap turing the grand commltteo and the junior senator from Rhode Island will be H. I.

Chicago, Nov. 6.—A tremendous vote Is being polled in Chicago today, where state, county and' judicial can didates are to be elected. Indications are thgt^out. of a total registration of 344,246 in the city ajul. suburbs over 300,000 votes will be cast. The entry of the Independence League into the fight Is responsible for the exceptional Interest in the .election and the strength being shown by tho ticket at tho polls today is easily the feature. A lesser feature which tended to greater Interest Is the fact that in addition to sheriff and the usual county officers to be chosen nt today’s election, there are twenty-eight judi cial justices who constitute the new court which will supplant the ol$ jus tice courts system and all justices. The Independence League, with ;wo detective agencies and an army of watchers, has acted as a big check on fraud; The present Indications are. that If the Independence League does not win it will at least make a strong show ing throughout BIG VOTE IS SURE IN MINNESOTA Ht.

In the election held through out the state Tuesday there was but little interest and a very light vote cast. Besides the election of eleven congressmen and three judges of the court of appeals, the only other names voted for were for local offices, and in most places the candidates were with out opposition, as were the con gressional and judicial candidates. It was because of the lack of op position to the Democratic nomi nees that there was so little in terest taken by the voter, as a nomination practically means an election. The candidates for congress have done but little campaigning, owing to the lack of opposition. : Flection day in Georgia does no^ carry much significance or especial in terest. . Tuesday, while great struggles are going on*In New York, Illinois and over the Union, Georgia Is simply go ing through the formality of electing eleven congressmen and three appellate judges. Due to lack of contest anywhere, the vote Is likely to be very light. Georgia does not differ front other states In that voters will not go to the polls unless there Is jn contest among candidates. Down Jn the First dis trict Charles Edwards. the Democratic nominee, Is opposed by a Republican, but there isn’t the slightest apprehen sion as to the result. Georgia's dele gation will remain solidly Democratic. Here in the Fifth Congressman Liv ingston is without any kind of oppo sition, and ho will sit back comfortably while the voters do the rest. Congress man Livingston is now dean of the Georgia delegation. The eleven con gressmen to be elected are as follows, in order of districts: Georgia Delegation. Charles Edwards, of Savannah; J. M. Griggs, of Dawson; E. B. Lewis, of Montezuma; W. C. Adamson, of Car rollton; L. F.' Livingston, of Newton county; Charles S. Bartlett, of Macon; Gordon Lee, of C'hlckamnuga; \V. M. Howard, of Lexington p T. M. Bell, of Gainesville: T. \V. Hardjvlck, of San- deravflte, rind W. G. Brantley, of Bruns wick. Besides the congressmen three judges of the court of appeals will lie elected. The three nominated on Octo ber 3. are: Judge B. B. Bussell, Hon. Benjamin H. Hill and Arthur G. Pow ell. Interest In this will come after their formal election in the naming of tho presiding judge, and the formation of the court’s work. Judge Bussell and ' Mr. Hill are both possibilities In con- I nectlon with the presiding judgeship's place. It Is probable that Georgia will not | cast over 50,000 votes Tuesday.

TO STICK IS NOT TO STAB; NEW DECISION OF COURT PLURALITY OK 1 .Yu,non CLAIMED FOR HBARST Continued from Pago One. Grand Jury First Reader, lesson one: To stick with a hat pin l\to assault and batter, and not to stab. An indictment on which Rosa White, a black woman, was tried before Judge Andy Calhoun Tuesday, charged with stabbing, and she was turned loose. - “The bill • should have charged as sault and buttery,” said the court. ’’I don’t think her offense constitutes stabbing.” Here’s what she did: On the after noon of October 8 she was throwing chewed-up sugar cane cm the floor of an East Point cur, when Conductor II. O. Hart told her to stop. The woman’s arrest followed her refusul, and then .she came at the conductor with a case knife. The knife was taken from her, but she kept on fighting, and finally drew her hat pin and stabbed—or “stuck” or "assaulted and battered”— the conductor in the side, tearing out the pin and inflicting a painful wound. Hho was forced to stv/ on the car and was turned over to County Policeman Wright at Fast Point... BOTH IES CLAIM Followers of Emery aud Stewart Are Still En thusiastic.

Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 6.—With the probability of the lightest vote in years, the Democrats are claiming Ohio by from 25 f ooo to 75,000. Republican managers are loath to give out figures, but it is known they count upon a plurality of 35,000 for Thompson for secretary of state. The Democrats, who now .have but one congressman from tni* state, expect to make a gain of six or seven. Republicans concede four. Democrats are counting on the feel ing against Senators Foraker and Dick for their opposition to President Roose velt and their crushing of the will of the people at the Dayton convention to help swell the Democratic vote.
