dress to the supporters Of the

lie says: "Ot the 6.G2G re gistered
voters 1906 marched 10 the polls
in the yariou> districts and de
posted their ballots on, election
day, and thar Hon. John Walter
Smith received only ST votes less
than the number cast for the
head of tile Republican ticket,
and nearly 100 more vote, than
wcIe ever east tor a Democratic
candidate III Somerset county,"
In this uc considers "that We have
contributed our fall share i'm ;he
successful effort to redeem Mary
land from Republican mi>rulp."
He adds: I'VE nave elected IA

Surveyor and Sheriff, and with
the aid of intelligent and upright
justices of the peace, who will
soon he appointed by the incom
ing Executive of the State. we
shall at least be able to maintain
peace and order in our com,
munity."
Mr.. Miles charges that "the
white and colored Republican
leaders reSorted to the most DIES
perate and nefarious means to
keep the cOlored vote solid;" that
"Strange negroes were introduced
into the county, led by a motor.
iouS convict, to play upon and
excite the prejudiceS and passions
of our colored population and
array them as a race against their

the exception of Chandler;
these gentlemen favor the gold

says:
OF course. the persecution of Admiral

cut more or less important figure in
this result It's only natural, consid-
eriug the profound resentment and
d sgu,t of the people at large that
Maryland, Schley's native State.
should take special notice of the sean.
dial. The President was warned on
this point months ago, and those who
warned him were in position to know
whereof they spoke. We can believe
without any effort whatsoever that n
very considerable Republican element
has been alienated 10y this discreditabe
and odious episode. 1t has impressed
us during the past twelve months as a
disgrace to the administra ion. and we
are not surprised to find it regarded in

The most primitive method in chro-
nology is that which enables man to
orient himself in the world OF time by
associating particular lunations with
vicissitudes of weather, with seasonal
aspects of vegetation, and with the
constantly changing sights and sounds
of the animal world. In the calendar
OF the Crees, for example, says the
Popular Science Monthly, we find such
designations as "duckmonth, frog
moon" "leaf-moon," "berries-ripe-
MONTH" "buffalo-rutting moen,"
"leaves-entirely-ch "leaves-in-
the-trees," fishing-calching- moon"
"moon-that'- strikes the earth cold"
"coldest-moon," ''ice-thawing-m MOON"
"eagles-seen-m moon" So in the calen-
dars of Central America and Mexico,
the months are named variOusly after
the arrival OF the bi! Dis, the blossomlng
Of flowers, the blowing of winds. the
return Of mosquitoes, and the appear
ance OF fishes. The Greeks constantly
used the movements of birds to mark
the seasons: the arrival of the swallow
and kite were thus noted. HesiCd tells
us how the cry OF the crane signaled the
departure Of winter, while the setting
of the Plelades gave notice to the plow-
man when to begin his work. The Incas
called Venus 1.-THE hairy" on account
OF the brightness of her rays, just as
the Peruvians named her the eight
hour torch" or "the twilight lamp"
from the time Of her shining.
