there was another and quicker
way to punch holes in iron. So
he made a punch and used it to

made application for patent
and the first of the week he re-
ceived notice that his little de-
vice was patented. The machine
looks very simple, but it does the
work. John received many let

wanting the agency and some
wanted to make the tool. 1t

THE rALL Fl. lcr1oNs.

The elections this year In most OF
the states Will be comparatively unim-
portant. and few OF tho contests are
attracting more than local attention.
In Maryland a Governor and other
state officials will be chosen, and the
fight is lively. George r. Gauf1er Is
the Republican nominee for Governor.
and in addition to the party vote It
is said that he will receive support
from strong independent element.
But the Democrats claim that their
candidates are safe. The Baltimore
sun is making vigorous fight for
the ticket, and the Sun is n power in
itself.
Another interesting contest is 60
ing on in Massachusetts, where State
officers from Governor down will be
elected. But the Democrats destroyed
whatever chance they may have had
OF winning, by splitting up andq
nominating two candidates for Cover
nor.
NCN YIN is IilcieIy CuOOSIuS Two
judges Of the Court of Appeals. and
there is no contest, as both parties
have Endorsed the candidates.
New Jersey Will elect a Governor,
and T. Franklin Fort, the Republican
candidate, is regarded as the prob
able winner
Kentucky and Rhode Island are the
other states that will elect a Gov
ernor In Virginia we will choose
members of the General Assembly.
and by the death OF Congressman
slemp, a special election will have to
be held in the Ninth District to choose
his successor. This Will give the DEM
ocrats a fine opportunity to elect
member of their party to represent
the district in Congress- and IL thew
do not take advantage of It. 1t will
be their own fault
Legislative contests are few and far
between, and the Democrats, Is usual.
VIII have an Overwhelming majority
IN the next General Assembly.
