says:
In some cases local fcuds haveSdiminished
our legitimate majorities, and, in others

scattering losses, we have done well. We
have done admirably in some counties, as in
Washington, Cecil and Anne Arundel, all
three of which were cassed as doubtful,
with the probabilities strongly against u.s.
In some of the counties on the Eastern and

of VIM. S. Goss, in Chester county, Pa, last
summer, has been in progress at West Chcs-

been the party bearing the name of A. G.
Wilson, and the proof that Wilson and Goss
were one and the same person is also strong.
A photograph of Goss was identified ly q

the man calling himself Wilson; so strong
and convincing is the proof that the MUIR

Goss who was supposed to have been burned
up in the fire that consumed his shop in Bal

impossible to see how any sensible jury could
