FAIRFAX, Va, August

Special Correspondence of The Star.
FAIRFAX. Va. August g. 1905.
Friends and neighbors of Lieut.. Gov.
Willard are very much gratified at the
practically unanimous vote cast for Mr..
Willard here at the recent democratic pri-
mary. 1t Is remarkable that candidate
should receive. even at his own home, every
vote cast with one exception. That Mr..
Willard has the confidence and respect OF
those who know him most intimately from
lifelong association Is not surprising. but
that all the voters of Fairfax should take
this opportunity to show such respect was
unlocked for and gratifying alike to Mr.
Wizards political friends and his political
opponents.
The tenth annual convention of the Fair
fax County Sunday School Association was
held at Jerusalem Baptist Church. a few
miles from Fairfax, on Thursday. The fol-
lowing officers Of the association were elect
ed for the ensuing year: President. j. NJ.

Special Correspondence of The Star
MANCHESTER, Va, August 20. 1905.
Inc nrst election contest in Winchester
ana FREDERICK county in many years will
DE heard by the county and city demo-
cratic executive committees at Joint
meeting to be held Thursday of next week
al which time United States Commissioner
Alvin j. Tavenner will contest the nomina-
ton of former Commonwealth ATTORNEY
Richard E. Byrd, who was last Tuesday
nominated by the democrats as their candt-
date for the house of delegates from the
county and city
The campaign conducted by these gen.
tiemen and their friends was many times
more intense and heated to a bitter degree
than that Of any of the state candidates
Charges were made that each had not paid
MS taxes. and were in other respects unit
TO hold the office. but Mr.. Byrd. being
closely in touch with the county people, al
though resident OF the city, carried the
county. Mr.. Tavenner carrying the city by
IL majority.
On the night of the primary it became
known that at Marlboro precinct Mr. Byrd
received all the votes that were cast for
the house of delegates. and the next day
IL was discovered that the judges had per-
mitted republicans to vote. not only at
Marlboro, but elsewhere throughout the
county, as well democrats who had not
paid their poll taxes and whose names were
not on the official voting lists. At Kerns-
town some one stole the voting list and
four hours elapsed before an order was OBJ
tanned from the circuit court granting them
another certified list.
The board of canvassers, despite pressure
brought to bear, has refused to announce
the county vote. pending a settlement of
the contest, and the friends of Mr. Byrd
claiming that his majority of about 125 en-
titles the public to know how the vote
stood, and that the board of canyassers has
no right to even temporarily suppress the
vote. However. the board is sticking to its
determination to lay the dispute before the
Joint meeting Of the committees. Mr.
Tavenner has protested against the returns
from thirteen out of the nineteen precincts
of Frederick county. He is resident OF
the county. and Mr.. Byrd was among those
recently taken into the city by the extern
sion of the corporate limits

KILL THE OANDElIONS.

A crusade should be made
against the daudelions in Sum
init county. a trip out in the
country reveals a deplorable
condition regarding this insight
Is plant. They ale not only
along the roadside but are thick
in many grain fields and mead
ows, while most Of the lawns in
in the country as we'll as here in
Coalville are almost solid mass
OF dandelions. There is surely
a fortune awaiting the man who
will devise a speedy aud sure
method Of killing them. A
correspondent in the Colorado
Springs Telegraph recommends
gasolene as a simple and In
expensive method Of getting rid
Of them. He says that by mer'
" spriukliug a few drops OF
gasoiene on the plant will kill
them. The blossoms, which
carry the seeds, should be pluck
ed of, but the plant need not be
pulled. The use Of an oil can
will prevent the gasolene from
getting on the grass and de-
stroyiug it. The dandelions
and the ground should de dry
when the gasoline is applied
Only a few drops are necessary
to kill the plant and to cause the
root to rot. 1t is claimed for
the method that the dandelions
do not reappear after gasolene is
used.
