HOW TWAS DOME"
AN ADMIRABLE LITTLE Work WHICH
DEMONSTRATES VERY MUCH MOST
INTERESTING INFORMATION JUST
NOW GREATLY SOUGHT AFTER.

Maj. Pangborn, the well-known COM
piler of the B. and 0. Red Book, which
has become the standard political text
book Of the country, is now engaged
with a large force of assistants in pre-
pairing a special edition of the Red
Book, which promises to be quite a
unique thing in political literature. 1t
is to be issued under the taking title
of How Twas Done: The Political
Revolution of 1882"
Within the most artistically en-
graved covers by the American Bank
Note Company will be embraced the
official results Of the election just held,
and arranged so perfectly and intelli-
gently that the veriest amateur
in such statistics cannot fail to COM
prehend them. The figures will be
given on State ticket and on Congress
sional ticket in separate tables, the
former by counties and the latter by
counties and districts. In both tables
comparisons will be made with the
vote at the preceding election in each
State, the returns of which will be
given in full in order that the under.
standing of the situation may be com
plete. 1t States where the Congress
sional districts have been changed since
1880, the districts will be shown as
now constituted, thus demonstrating
what the result would have been two
years ago had the same counties COM
posed the districts then as now. indie
pendent, Prohibition and Greenback
figures will be given in addition to the
regular Republican and Democrat, and
in each county the vote of each party
will be shown with majorities, gains
and losses, both years, together with
total vote of county, congressional dis
trict and state. Statistical tables will
also be included in the book, showing
upon a similar full and comprehensive
scale the vote for President in IS 76
and in 1880.
In no publication of like character
are such clear and exhaustive tabular
statements attempted as in the B. & o.
Red Book, and the forthcoming special
edition will eclipse any previous edi-
ton in extent and interesting charac-
ter of information furnished. Includ.
ed within the remarks accompanying
the returns will be the details of the
changes in congressional districts, the
congressman elect, and the unsuccess-
full candidates in each State, as we'll as
the members of the next Congress
complete, and the changes in that body
as compared to the last Congress.
Much other data will be given, and in
the way of a thorough understanding
of exactly "How Twas Done" it
would be difficult to imagine a more
interesting and reliable a source of ex
PLANTATION than will be this new edition
of the B. & O. Red Book. Like its
predecessor, it will be sent without any
cost whatever to all who make appli
cation for it to G. K. Lord, General
Passenger Agent b. & o. r. r., Balti-
more, Md.
The Red Book is as a matter of
course an advertisement of the Balti-
more and Ohio Railroad, but it com
bines so much of general interest to
the public with comparatively so little
about the road, that it is far more valu-
able than nine-tenths the publications
of the character placed on sale.
The B. & o. Red Book is by heavy
odds the handsomest political work
from typographical standpoint issued
in the United States, being always
printed with exquisite taste on fine
paper and bound in the best manner.
1t certainly is worth the little trouble
occasioned in writing for it, and it is
hazarding nothing to predict that the
new special edition devoted to the
election which has just taken place
will be pre-eminently the textbook of
1882.
AS there will doubtless be an i'm
mense demand for the book, it would
be well for all desiring copy to write |
at once to Mr.. Lord, as the edition will |
be sent out to those making applica-
lion on the principle of first come first |
served. Envelopes will be addressed |
Is applications come in, SO that there |
nay be no delay in mailing when the
work is received from the binder.
