The vote in this county was hardly
more than third of the usual vote.
But Lancastrians are in just the
same boat as those of nine districts
In Virginia. All the same, it lie pity,
almost shame, that so pitifui a vote
should have been cast. Lots of other
wise good citizens didn't bother their
heads to vote; some of them even did
not pay their poll tax in time. They
think results would not have been
affected. True; so far as either
Parker or Jones were concerned we
all knew it would not weigh any,
thing. But let's see if we can't
point out some vital points that this
staying away did materially affect.
When you want your precinct and
county represented at any political
convention, or in naming delegates
or officers, and your vote is based
upon this Presidential election las
all will probably be for four years to
come) don't you think double the
quota of representatives would be a
good thing? You could have easily
Virginia citizen. (Irvington, Va.) 1891-1921, 1904-11-11

had it. A so-called good citizen who
turnsout and workslike a Trojan here
after tor some good man or cause will
forget that ne could have helped lots
more by having voted Tuesday last
for Parker and Jones. Mr.. Good.
Citizen, put that in your pipe and
don't let it die out. That's one point.
Another: Congress is Overwhelmingly
Republican; Roosevelt. had put in
the Republican platform demand
for cutting down Southern represen-
tation; can any doubt that an effort
will be made to this end? Another
force bill stares us in the face, with
less certainty of successful overthrow,
and no one will aid the enemy more
than the Southern Democrat who
failed to record his vote on Tuesday
last. The pitiful vote of Virginia,
and doubtless of other Southern
States, will be the strongest argu-
ment before Congress for cutting
down the number of Southern Con-
gressmen and Southern electoral
votes, and the hardest plea to
combat. Put that in your pipe,
also, Mr.. Derelict Good. Citizen, and
when the embers of Republican
hatred fan this way remember you
helped pump the bellows. Here
after let us look little more to the
future and less to present con-
venience.

The undignified uttersnces of
President Roosevelt replying to
Judge Parker's speech, had no sooner
shocked the public than q private
interview with one, Mr.. Smith, di-
vulged more clearly what manner
Of man our President is. Mr.. Smith,
his friend, says that Mr.. Roosevelt,
when speaking of Judge Parker and
other Democratic speakers, "got red
hot. Just let me get at them
once he shouted, jumping up and
down and shaking his fist" A more
disgraceful scene could hardly be
depicted of the "first gentleman of
the land" 1t is this impulsive,
brainless capering that makes con-
servative and thoughtful Americans
fear for the future peace of our
country.

A CONTEMPORARY says: "The Sui

habit of turning about twenty lions

every night. He thinks they guard
his 5000 wives more safely than

dead right" But how about the
fellow that leashes and unleashes
the lions? A fellow that tames lions
can usually break feminine hearts.

THE AFTERMATH Of ELECTION
SOME POLITICAL FREAKS OF
THE VOTERS.
Opinions Differ AS To The Real
Cause of The Republican
Landslide.

The official vote of the state is not
all completed, but enough has been
received TO assure that the state has
gone Republican by small margin.
The Democrats. however, elect three
Congressman out of six, instead of
two, as reported in the returns of
Yesterday, Mr.. Thomas A. Smith. of
Caroline county. succeeding the Hon.
W. II. Jackson, of the First district.
So far the vote of the state gives
the Republican electoral candidates Il
majority of l26, which may be changed
hy the official vote. The election of
Smith over jackson is considered a
great victory for the Democrats of the
Eastern Shore counties, which have
heretofore gone Republican on Con-
gressional elections. This makes the
delegation in Congress from Maryland
an even Steven. Another claim is also
made by the returns today which
breaks the "Solid South"-that of
Missouri going for the Republicans.
Much comment is heard on all sides
as to the causes of the great Republi-
can victory-everyone differing from
the other.
Some attribute it to the great money
power in the hands of the big cOrpo-
rationS and the trusts which is brought
TO bear directly upon the masses. The
protective tariff and it's influence is
another reason, and others to the large
independents vote which is not con-
trolled by the party lash. The cause
in nutshell is the country is not
ready to "swap horses" while crossing
a stream or TO take new risks for
economy's sakein governmental affairs.

THE CUNNING SEASON OPENS
SPORTSMEN NOW TAKE TO
THE WOODS.
Provided With Dogs And Gun. The
Rabbit And Bird Stand
aPoor Show.

Wagon loads Of hunters left Annap-
oils today for the country. Provided
with dogs, guns and other necessities
of the hunter they started out to take
part in the opening of the rabbit and
bird season. A careful computation
of the number of rabbits il the coun-
ty and the number of hunters who went
out in search of them shows that if
all the rabbits are captured they will
have to be distributed ON q basis of
one brabit TO every two hunters.
OF course the game known here as
rabbits are really hares, and they are
causing great surprise TO the hunters
from other counties, who are here as
guests of local residents. The visitors
expected to have the dogs run the rab-
bits to their burrows and were greatly
surprised when they fonud they had
none. Birds are much more plentiful
than was thought to be the case. In
the blizzard of five years ago large
number of quail were sacrificed by
the severe weather.
Since that time number of wes-
tern birds have been freed here and
from them it was hoped to largely in
crease the numbers. The numbers
found during the past two seasons in
dicated. that a good increase had been
secured. Last winter was so severe
that it was feared a large number we're
lost Every indication, however, is
that the loss has been very slight and
the increase particularly large. There
was a late growth of shrub last win
ter, which added not little in pre-
serving the life of the birds.

THE LOCAL OPTION LAW.
Its Violators Are Summarily Dealt
With In Court Today Be
fore The Judpes.

Violators of the local option law, as
applied to the county districts, were
severely dealt with in the Circuit
Court today. From the time of their
arraignment till they were assessed
large fiues they had scarcely time TO
take a long breath. Judges Revell
and Thomas occupied the bench.
The state was represented during
the session of Court by Mr.. Jerry l..
Smith, who handled the cases in
very pleasing manner. He presented
the evidence for the state in the best
possible manner and secured convic-
tions in the principal cases.
The first case before the Corut was
thatsof James Gibbs, colored. 1t was
alleged that he had attempted a crimi-
nal assault on Amy Handy, also col
ored, whose age is below that of con-
sent. He Ipleaded not guilty TO the
charge and elected to be tried by the
Court The evidence was very con-
yincing and he was found guilty.
Sentence will be imposed in a few
days.
Aaron Meek was charged with vio-
lating the local option law by selling
liauor in the Third district. On de-
mand he was tried by jury which
found him guilty. The Court assessed
him$ rs. 90 and costs. A plea of guilty
TO the same charge was entered by
George Emmends. Very little evil
dence was adduced, but it was suffi-
cient to convict and he was fined 500
and costs.
On the request of the State the case
against Nathan Williams was stetted.
Charles Boyd was next placed on trial
on the charge of violating the local
option law.
