Capt. J. j. Hayman of Crisfield has
secured a patent on a roller chock to be
used in winding up dredges. This in
vention will save both rops and labor.
and probably it will spring into popular
favor with the oyster dredgers of the
Chesapeake. 1t is said to be such
great improvement over the present
method that any boatman in seeing it
will appreciate its necessity.
The ending of the coal strike. while
it will bring JOY to thousands of homes,
who have been buying up large quanti-
ties of wood in order to place it on the
market this winter at enormous prices.
To them the return of the miners to
work will in all probability cause the
loss of few dollars. In times like the
present spectators who would take adj
vantage of the necessities of the people
by the imposition of high prices deserve
to lose.
1T is of importance { every voter to
know that the Court of Appeals has de
cided that the cross (X) mark on the
ballot must be made entirely within the
square, and must not extend beyond the
square in any manner whatever. With
only one candidate to vote for there
should be no reason why any ballot
should be discarded on account of de
fective marking. No other mark should
be placed on the ballot, nor the ballot de-
faced in any way. See that you use the
pencil provided for each voting booth,
and use little care in marking your
ballot. and thus be sure that your vote
will be counted.
