Landon, the Republican candidate. The victory further reduced the Republican membership in congress and took one more governors chair, at least, from the party of Landon and Lincoln. So vast was the majority for President Roosevelt that it was held by many as a clear mandate for him to continue his liberal policies, and friends and opponents alike were loud in their declaration that every American must stand beside the president. 'Two states, Maine and Vermont, with a total of eight electoral votes, stood on the Landon side. New Hampshire- favoring Landon in early returns finally climbed over the fence to join the Democrats.

The fire, which started in a lumber and celotex wall behind a kitchen range, followed up the wall into a small attic. It was necessary to chop into the wall and through the roof before the 4 $, fire could be entirely extinguished. f fVery little water was used, though the department had the hose connected and ready if it should be needed. Chemical extinguishers were used to eliminate as much as possible water damage to the furnishings. The fire was apparently started through a hot fire which Miss Edna Lemon, who occupies the with her sister, had built up in the range which Is very close to the wall. Neither of Governor Henry II.

According to incomplete returns on the six constitutional amendments, amendment No. 5, giving the legislature the authority to exempt homesteads up to $2,000 W'as ratified with a slight majority, while the other five were rejected strongly. Amendment No. 6, allowing the legislature to raise their pay from $4.00 to $8.00 per day received the heaviest negative vote. It is thought by many that the closeness of the vote would be a 'warning to the legislature to use discretion in enacting laws under it, and that probably a compromise of a $1,000 exemption might be the outcome. Tabulations on the amendments were not widely reported from the districts in Duchesne county, as in many other counties, making the available counts for the state rather indefinite, however, latest available returns gave No. 5 a count of 45,354 for, as to 41,291 against.
