Profits of Good Roads,

Now, as to the profits in good roads.
The towns and cities which have
made entrance easy find that trade
thereby comes to them. Farmers
desert old markets for new ones,
although the old markets may be
nearer home, being influenced by the
knowledge of how much cheaper large
loads may be hauled over we'll made
roads. OF course they buy where
they sell, and one consequent gratify.
ing result is competition between
business centers in the matter of good
roads. New York Post.

TAMGIANY'S CINCH.

NEW YORK, Nov. 3.-The result OF
the first municipal election in the
Greater New York completely reverses
the conditions of 1896, when McKin-
ley's plurality in the same territory
was $3.50. The plurality of Van
Wyck, Tammany candidate for may
or, is about $4,000, and the entire
ticket is elected with majorities rang
ing from 10000 to 100000. Coler's
plurality over Fitch, Republican, for
comptroller, is over 100000. Both
Van Wyck and Coler were free silver
adherents in 1886.
PARKER'S MAJORITY.
Alton b. Parker, the Democratic
candidate for judge of the state court
of appeals, carried Greater New York
by 100000, and his total plurality over
Wallace, Republican, below the Bronx
river will not be less than 100000,
insuring his election and Democratic
success in the State.
Such a rush to the polls has never
been known except in presidential
years. Rainy weather failed to
dampen civic enthusiasm. The reg
istration was abnormal. The total of
557,256 was only 1852 behind that of
1896. Last year only G.6G per cent.
failed to vote for president, and the
n.t tnI FOL u NfS
900 shows that the falling off does not
much exceed that of 1896.

From the KinCwood mArrus., :,

There was quiet wedding down at
Albrightsville last Sunday, Oct. "a, at
the residence of the officiating minis
ter, Rev. H. f, Friend. The ceremony
took place Immediately after preach
ing, about noon, and the contracting
ing parties were John l.. Brown and
Hattie Florence Welch, both from
Friendsville, Md. They drove over in
a buggy and were married quietly and
returned home.
Mr.. and Mrs. J $ Sterling left Tues
day evening for Friendsville Md, to
attend the funeral of the wife of Mr..
George Sterling, brother to J. S. Stcr-
ling.
The Sang Run and White Oak
Spring choirs will sing at Sang Run,
Md, on Sunday, November Z, at 1
o'clock p. m. These choirs are both
good ones and will no doubt render
excellent music, as Prof. |. 7. Groves
has charge of these choirs and well
knows how to entertain the people
with soul-stirring music A col dial
invitation is extended to all.
Samuel Suter, the young man who
was killed over at GAINESVILLE last
Tuesday, did not break his neck by
the fall as was first announced. He
fell heavily on the back part of his
head and crushed his skull, never
speaking afterwards. He groaned
once after the fall, and then expired
Immediately. The funeral took place
over at Johnstown, Md, the old home
of the unfortunate man, and was con
ducted under the auspices of the Odd
Fellow'sLodge OF GAINESVILLE, of which
the deceased was q member.

NUMBER 35.

Neacs says that VIM. H. Gabbert.
Democrat-Populist candidate for
Judge of the Supreme Court, is proba-
bly, elected by 5000 majority. The
Republic0n says that Chas.
Hayt, Republican and silver Republi-
can, will have 1900 majority or more.
Hayt carried this county by about
1000 majority.
The entire silver Republican ticket
appears to have been elected in this
county. although the NeaoS claims the
reelection of Sheriff Webb on the
Civil Federation and Democratic
tickets. The fusionists appear to have
defeated the Republicans in El Paso
county, of which Colorado Springs is
the county seat, and in Leadville and
Lake county the silver Republicans
made clean sweep.

IT Is an actual fact, rather than a
campaign story, that the advocates of
the free silver theory are gradually
and gracefully breaking away from
their former convictions in regard to
the white metal and are looking
about for other issues" Many men
who supported free silver in last years
campaign, seeing the way the drift is
going, are dropping the silver theory
and coming out sQuarely in favor of
absolute fiatism. 1t is, however. but
step from free silver and the issuance
of money worth forty cents on the
hundred to unlimited paper money
with nothing behind it to assure its
REDEMPTION.

the expense of the silver trust, but
the American people have again been
doomed to disappointment and not a

HANNA Is SAICE

CLEVELAND, o., Nov. 3.-The cleo
tion of legislature which will return
M. A. Hanna to the United States
Senate now seems assured. The tri-
umph of Mr.. Hanna was not unexpec-
ted by his friends in Ohio, but it was
accomplished against tremendous
odds. His election was not assured
until the result in his county was
known. He was supported by the
substantial business men, the farmers
and mechanics, and the friends OF

IT WAS not to be supposed that
England would agree to open the
mints of India in advance of any in
ternational agreement, or even CON
ference, and her action in the matter
OF silver does not at all argue her op-
position to the cause of true bimetal-
lism. The prospect is that England
will willingly send delegates to an in
ternational conference looking to the
rehabilitation of silver as primary
money.

THE silvery tones, if not the silvery
arguments, have disappeared from
Mr.. Bryan's voice. 1t was noticed in
Ohio that owing to excessive speaking
his voice has lost much of its pleasant
modulation, and had become strained
and hoarse. 1t is thought this was
due to some extent to the factory
smoke floating around through the
atmosphere where he spoke. Last
year he wasn't troubled in this re-
spect.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1897-11-04

ACCORDING to the Popocratic argu-
ments OF last yeara vote for Mckinley
meant to the farmer wheat at twenty
five cents bushel, but one for Bryan
meant dollar bushel for wheat and
then every dollar was to be worth
two dollars, so that the farmers were
to be eight times as well off with
Bryan as withMcKinley forPresident.
All right as a theory.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1897-11-04

Mr.. BRYAN explains very salts
factorily, to himself, why silver has
lost a fifth of its value since he was
roaming the country last year, while
at the same time wheat has advanced
fifty per cent. in value, but now and
then he runs up against farmer who
can't see through his logic. 1t is re-
markable how some farmers can't be
convinced.

of year ago. The business failures
were also nearly Il third less and the
North Ameica exports of wheat were

Democrats understood that the tri-
umph oftheir legislative ticket meant
the election to the Senate Of John R.
MsLean. Thh fact created apathy ia
their ranks. No formidable senate
rial opposition developed to Mr.. Nc
Lean. The Democrats have sold
their senatorial seat to the highest
bidder twice in succession, and Demo
Gratis of integrity objected strenuously
to the third sale, which would newt
ably have been the result of the cleo
tion Of the Democratic ticket in this
State. Many Democrats voted for
Mr.. Hanna as a consequence. The
tour of Mr.. Bryan through the State
is seen in the result. He drove all
the national Democrats and many of
the conservative silver Democrats to
the support of Mr.. Hanna.

have elected enough members to the
next Legislature to give them a ma

position of some of the counties, and
these may alter the result, but from
the best obtainable figures at this
