Maj. PsnRbcrn. the well known com"
piler of the b and o Red Book, which
has become the standard political text
book Of the country, is now engaged
with large force OF assistants in pre-
pairing special edition of the Red
Book, which promises to be quite
unique thing in political literature. 1t
is to be issued under the taking title
of "How Twas Done: The Political
Revolution of 1922"
Within the most artistically engrav-
ed covers by the American Bank Note
Company will be embraced the official
results Of the election Just held and
arranged 30 perfectly and intelli-
gently that the veriest amateur in such
statistics cannot comprehend them.
The figures will be given on State tick
ct and on Congressional ticket in separ-
ate tables, the former by counties and
the latter by counties and districts. In
both tables comparisons will be made
with the vote at tho last preceding
election in each State, the returns Of
which will be given in full in order
that the understanding of the situation
may be complete.
In States we're the Congressional dis
tricts have been changed since 1885,, the
districts will be shown as now conSti-
tuted, thus demonstrating what the re-
suit would have been two years ago
had the same counties composed the
districts then as now. Independent,
Prohibition and Greenback figures will
be given in addition TO the regular Re-
publican 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
country, congressional district and
state. Statistical tables will also be in
cluded in the book, showing upon SINH
| lar full and comprehensive scale the
vote for President in 1876 and In 1880.
In no publication of like character arc
such clear and exhaustive tabular
statements attempted as in the B. 81 o.
Red Book, and the forthcoming special
edition will eclipse any previous edition
in extent and interesting character Of
information furnished.E
Included within the remarks accom-
panying the returns will be the details
OF the changes in congressional dis.
tricts, the congressman elect, and the
unsuccessful candidates in each State,
2s we'll as the members of the next
Congress complete, and the changes in
that body as compared to the last Con-
gress. Much other data will be given
and in the way of thorough under
Standing of exactly "HOw Twas Done"
| it would be difficult to in agine u more
interesting and reliable source of OK
plauation than will be this new edition
OF the b. & o. Red Book. Like its pre-.
deCessor, it will be sent without any
cost whatever TO all who make applica-
tion TOR iJ to G. K. Lord, General Pas.

The Red Book Is as q matter of course
an advertisement of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad but it combines so much
of general interest to the public with
comparatively 80 little about the road,
that it is far more valuable than nine
tenths the publications of the character
placed on sale.
The B. & o. Red Book is by heavy
odds the handsomist political work
from a typographical standpoint issued
in the United States, being always
printed with exquisite taste on fine pa
per and bound in the best manner. 1t
certainly is worth the little trouble
occasioned in writing for it and it is
haz zarding nothing to predict that the
new special edition devoted to the cleo
tion which has just taken place will be
pre-eminently the textbook OF 1882.
As there will doubtless be all i'm
menso demand for the book, 1t would
be well for all desiring copy to write
at once to Mr.. Lord, as the edition will
be sent out to those making application
ON the principle of first come first serV-
ed. Envelopes will be addressed as
applications come in, so that there may
be no delay in mailing when the work
Is recei we'd fl ON the binder.
