STATE RESUL rs.

The returns from the State election
have been very slow in coming in.
The additional labor entailed by the
new ballot lawhas made the progress
of the work necessarily difficult.
Enough is now known to assure the
control of both branches of the legis-
lature by the Democrats. They will
have fifty-two members of the House
of Delegates and seventeen Senator's.
The majority on the joint ballot will
be sixty nine which will enable them
to elect the United States Senator.
The Democrats seem to have carried
the following counties or portion at
least: Allegheny, Anne Arundel,
Baltimore county, Caroline, Carroll,
Cecil, Dorchester, Hartford, Howard,
Montgomery, Prince Georges, Queen
Anne, St. Mary's, Talbot, Wicomico
Worcester. In some of the above
named counties the Democrats have
only elected a portion of the ticket.
Much to the regret, of not only his
friends in his own county, but
throughout the State, Senator Austin
L. Crothers was defeated. It's a dis
tinct loss to the Commonwealth.
TWAS at6rst reported that theState
ticket had been defeated by a small
majority, but it now appears that
DR.. Joshua w. Herring was elected
Comptroller by a majority of over
two thousand and ]. Frank Turner
wins with less than one thousand
majority.
The loss of BaltimoreCity was I'M
expected as the Democrats felt
reasonably certain that they would
carry two out of the three legislative
districts. They elected George War
field Sheriff and have one or two
members of the House of Delegates.
Local conditions were undoubtedly
the cause of their defeat but they need
not expect to elect their ticket until
a change is made In the method of
nominating their candidates. The
people ofBaltimore are tired ofRasin.

TAMMANY'S DEFEAT.

Outside of our own election the
most interesting political contest this
fall was the fight in Greater New
York. Asevery one knows Tarnmany
Hall which is said to be the most
powerful political organization in the
civilized world has been overthrown
and the reins of Government are in
the hands of those who have bitterly
opposed the "Tiger" for years. This
should not be regarded as defeat to
the Democratic party. On the con-
traryit is a personal rebuke to the
great political boss Richard Croker.
He is Grand Sachem of Tammany
and absolutely dictates the nomina-
tons fwhatisgenerallytermedth there
as the Democraticparty. Inpoint of
fact, this Is not the case as many
Democrats on national issues UNI
hesitatingly fight boss rule whenever
the question comes up.
The defeat of Croker might call to
mind an almost similar condition in
the State of Maryland. AS he is the
milestone around the neck of that
party there, SO Baltimore City is
afflicted in a like manner. We
sincerely believe that a majority of
the voters of our Metropolis favored
the government of the State by the
ballot of the white man, but they had
become disguised with the supposed
influence which boss Rasin had in the
make up of the ticket. If thisgentle-
mems fine Italian hand had not been
suspected of being able to draw the
lines of the political primary, there is
little doubt but what the city would
have given a full Democratic major
ity. The people resent.the dictates of
any political boss and unless they are
allowed to have a part in the make
up of the ticket they cannot be ex-
pected to support it at the general
election.
We do not favor reform outside of
party lines. The organization in it
self should possess enough power to
allow the will of the majority to rule
and it does seem strange that the
Democratic voters of Baltimore city
did not take some interest in their
primaries and make their own nomi-
nations. The people of New York
City did right in rejecting Tammany's
nominees for Mayor. He was Re-
publican of the same stripe as Seth
Low the successful candidate. His
voice has been loud and strong
against Tammany for years and yet
he showed what his true makeup was
when the nomination was offered, to
accept it. Honor cannot beexpected
to spring from dishonor and if Tam
many Hall was as bad as Shepherd
had painted it, he should not have
accepted the nomination. When he
did the people very properly lost con-
fidence in his sincerity and became
convinced that like a great many
other reformers he was "for revenue
only" The Democratic party in New
York City is not dead but they could
not be expected to do otherwise that
what they did when the only thing
offered to them was the choice be-
tween two Republicans. They chose
Low because he had always remained
on the same side of the house.

A Great Statesman's Secret.

The secret of a celebrated statesman's
long life was his systematic way ofeating.
Every bite offood was chewed thirty times
before swallowing. The result was nc

men and women bolt their food, and eat
things which were never intended to be
eaten. They become costivc, have a bad
complexion, lose flesh and are irritable

Stop the

1t is a sad thing to see fine
fruit trees spoiled by the blight.
You can always tell them from

But some of them don't get
their rights. While the rest

MATTER OF DOUBT.
The Train boy Knew People Pretty
Well, but He HID a Guess
Coming.

Zone day last fall" said well-known
Montana man, Il was riding on a train in
my state and got to be on pretty fair terms
with the train boy by buying a few OF the
things he had to SELL 1t was not very
formal kind of train, and when the boy
had finished his rounds he came over to
sit with me and chin Bit as he said. l
was willing enough, as he was sharp lad
and there was nobody else to talk to, and
he went right at things.
" DO you know he said that | can tell
by looking at a man mighty near what he
is Now, there's that fellow over there in
the corner; he's Chicago drummer. I
can tell him by the way he lets his money
go and the flip style he has when he talks
to people. And that chap over there with
the silk hat on, he's preacher from
country town, I'm dead sure. and III go
ask him if you say So
II didn't say so, because didn't care
continental, and the boy went ON with his
descriptions Of the people on the train. At
last ] asked him what he thought was
/ had on pretty hashy suit OF light stuff
and was thinking was looking pretty well,
so | was willing to risk the boys venture.
He looked me over for full minute very
carefully.

sloo OF money, but amt dead sure whether
you are cattleman or gambler Wash

self-approvaI, that we owe duty to the
"Who is the public?" inquired Mr.. Bly,
kns, abruptly,
mo-" said Mr.. Blykins, with emphasis,
"you got the wrong idea. The public is
something to be roped in to be gouged; to
be walked over. To the sugar trust the pub
lie is a great congregation of confectionery
consumers. To the beef trust the public is
vast menagerie of carnivorous bipeds. 10
the politician it is a collection of persons
who have influence at elections; to the the
atrical manager, crowd of people in front
of the box Office eager to get rid OF money;
to the street car conductor lot OF creatures
who ought to be made to step lively"
"You think the public gets imposed upon

ayes. 1t doesn't deserve any better, and
retribution is always waiting. The man
who imposes on the public in one respect
lapses back into the general outfit in some
thing else and is imposed on in his turn.

SAVED BY A NATIVE.
DIR. Livingstone Attacked by n Lion
and Rescued just in Time by an
African Marksmnn.

DIR. David Livingstone, the great At
rican explorer, had many thrilling ex-
periences during his travels in the un.
known wildernesses of the dark con-
tinent. What with savage men and
ferocious animals his life was in con-
slant danger, but at no time was he
nearer death than when he was held
under the claws of a huge lion. In
1910 DR.. Livingstone went to South
Africa as a missionary and was To-
Gated in a Bechuana village in the
northern part of the present division
of Cape Colony. lie lived there nine
years before he began his expeditions
into the unexplored regions farther
north.
At one time, while living at this
post, the cattle of the village were
greatly harassed by lions and at last
concerted effort was made to rid
the neighborhood c the animals. DR..
Livingstone and the natives salned
out against the lions anu rounded up
number of them. Livingstone

Avoid Hard water for washing.

Buff, gray or khali-colored linen is
sometimes difficult to wash nicely on
account of it's tendency to spot and
also to fade. A tablespoonful of black
pepper added to the first water in
which they are washed will obviate
this difficulty, keeping them both from
spotting and fading. They should be
washed in cold water; the pepper will
aid in softening the water, somewhat
as soda would do, though of course
with lesser effect. Hard water is al
ways bad for washing anything, even
though softened by boiling. When
any material with a buff or gray back
ground has faded in the wash it may
be wet and dried several times and
bleached in strong sunlight until it be-
comes white. This is also applica BILE
TO patterned muslins and lawns that
are faded. They may be bleached till
perfectly white and do as much service
in their latter condition as under their
original color.-Ledger Monthly.

singled out beautiful male lion,
took aim and fired. The animal was
struck, but received wound that
only served to arouse his anger. Be-
fore Livingstone realized what was
happening the fierce brute gave
mighty spring ara crushed the OK
plorer to the earth. Then he seized
Livingstone by the shoulder in his
terrible teeth and shook the man as
cat does mouse. DR.. Livingstone,
in telling of the incident afterward,
said this shaking caused a numbness
to extend over his entire body. He
could not move, but he was perfectly
conscious and fully realized his
danger.
Fortunately some of the natives
had seen DR.. Livingstone's peril. As
they rushed to his aid the lion placed
both forepaws on his victim and
growled defiance at the new foe. A
well-directed shot from natives
weapon, however, laid him cold in
death. DR.. Livingstones arm had
been crushed Dy the animals teeth
and his body was BADLY lacerated by
the claws, but he recovered. The ma
tives, he said, alwtJs seemed to have
more respect for him after his mar
row escape than they had BEFORE

pounds when she was in good health.
When she commenced with our family
physician in April, 1898, she weighed
about 1870, but kept going down all the
time. She went to Atlanta, Ca, and
took treatment, but it did her no good.
Then she went to Harmony Grove, Ca,
and took treatment from the best
physician there for three months.
She kept going down under his treat
ment, although he was considered the
best physician in the county. She
went down from 1870 pounds to 6S, and
we saw she could not live long. She
was skeleton. We consulted an old
physician who told her to use Peruna.
She gradually improved and got
stronger. She has gained 3S pounds
since she has taken Peruna, and is
gaining every day, and does her own
housework.
'She was well known when she was
so low, and now everybody wants to
know what cured her. She had in
