S. S. M'CLURE'S LECTURE TODAY An Able Lecture by a Man of Great Ability and Record and an Important Subject. Every voter and citizen in KeokuiK dught to hear Colonel Samuel S. Mc dure, editor of McClure's magazine, lecture in the Grand opera houss this afternoon at three o'clock. However, this will be Impossible as the seating capacity of the opera housa is limited to 1.064 seats including the parquet, balcony and gallery. The main floor and boxes on this floor have been re served, or about 30 percant of the seating capacity. These seats were placed on sale at the Grand office at 15 and -5 cents. The obj£ct in mak ing these reservations is to assist the committee in meeting the expense of •bringing Mr. McClure to our city, ana not for the purpose of making money on the lecture. Ordinarily the admis sion fee to lectures of this type and character is one dollar. The doors will open at 2:30 o'clock, and men and women are invited to be present. There is no admission fee, and seats are free in 70 percent of the house. The male quartette composed of Messrs. Hulson, Hayden, McFarland and! Hulson will sing. His Lecture. Speaking in an indirect way, the lecture on government which Col. McClure will deliver In this city is probably one of the most expensive lectures which has evsr been pre pared. Mr. McClure has been studying th^ subject of government and getting hie knowledge from first-hand investiga tions for the past tan years. He has visited the best governed cities ot every civilized! land and has watched) the progress of national governments in much the samj way. In addition to that he has had a trained staff of Investigators at work during the greater part of the ten, years which he has given to thia world study of rulershlp. And in^ that time he has caused the magai zine of which he was the founder tq spend hundreds of thousands of dol lars in the gathering of data and the sending of special writers to variousi parts of the earth on missions of in-, vestlgation. Mr. McClure has had, therefore, all of his own experiences to draw from as well as tne enormous amount of data in the offices of ths magazine at his disposal In preparing his lecture. Safe to Bet on.

The candidates for mayor and coun cil finished their campaign last night. Today is the day of rest in the battle, the breathing space before the final clash. Tomorrow tha battle will be on In earnest at the polls. At this time, the result may rightly be said to be doubt. The "dope" on this elec tion is sadly wanting, and what there is of It is badly warped. The polling places for ths election tomorrow are as follows: First precinct—625 Main street. Second precinct—30 South Third. Third1 precinct—George Washing ton school, 125 North Ninth street. Fourth precinct—1015 South Fifth strset. Fifth precinct—1317 Main street. Sixth precinct—12-06 Johnson street. Seventh precinct—Keokuk Electric company's barn, 1901 Bank street. Heavy Vote Expected. From all indications the vote to morrow will be a heavy one.. The primary vote was above the average and It is predicted that there will 'be a larger vote at th» polls tomorrow than two weeks ago. The candidates and their organizations have been drumming up all voters not register ed two weeks ago, and heavy voting is to be the order of things torn."row. That the vote of 3,731 two year® ago will be overshadowed by a thou sand is the prediction of many of the candidates. In the race two years withv.ljS$4 vqtps beat Lofton with 1,838. Gray for commissioner headed the list with 2.003 votes. Hickey came second with 1.844 and Dimond polled" 1.450. while Schmidt wa3 de feated, too, receiving only 1,702 votes. Gate City's Returns.
