ROWE STARTS
HIS CAMPAIGN
IN HOME WARD
Tells Democrats He Would En-.
force All Laws if Elected
as Sheriff.
ENDORSED IN FIFTEENTH
WITH MANN AND WARD
Judge Howell Helps ROwe's
Boom and Commends Those
Who Insisted Candidate Run.

James A. Rowe began active work
last night for the Democratic nomina-
ton for sheriff by speaking to voters
of his home ward. the Fifteenth, who
forced him into the race after he had
at first refused to stand. The meeting
was in Smiths Hall. Park avenue and
Stone street.
The candidate said he had no doubt
OF his possession of the business quail
fications or necessary ability to fill the
office successfully. He promised exact
and impartial enforcement of all laws
IL elected.
The meeting indorsed his candidacy
and that of John S. Mann for alder
man and Nathaniel Ward for free
holder. Judge David T. Howell, the
chief orator of the evening, compli-
mented the ward on having a man of
Rowe's abilities to put forward for
sheriff.
Mr.. Rowe's sneecll was made in re-
Spouse to the resolution of indorse-
ment. His talk was short but meaty.
He said:

"Well I have a half-dozen mono

Then, whenever I enter q new town /

easy matter to keep it in good humor.
During the twenty minutes you're on

heard tramps in barrooms sing with the
sweetest tenor voices any one could

to examine that wonderful button
covered waistcoat. The buttons and
medals are the real thing collected
from all over the world. There is ono
even from Australia and he's mighty
proud of them all.

Armed with a search warrant sign

w. W. Jackson, accompanied by Dep

The room raided Is known as 312 East
Main street and is located over the

the room was we'll filled with gamb-
lers and the joint seemed to be doing
a fiourishing business A wild scram-
BILE was made for the doors and the
different exits when the sheriff and
his deputies entered the room. The
warrant called for the seizure of all
gambling paraphernalia found in the
place, and as the place was we'll fitted
up with all kinds Of gambling devices,
several trips with a dray wagon were
necessary to remove the furniture to
the basement of the court house
1t took until o'clock Sunday morn
ing to remove the paraphernalia. Two
roulette wheels, two crap tables, sew
eral poker tables, faro bank layout
and other gambling devices were
found in the place. Sheriff Jackson
stated that when they entered the rem
devious over a hundred men were in
the room, but no one was arrested, as
the warrant only called for the seizure
of the gambling devices.

Brazil borders on every republic in
South America except Chile. In one
respect, however she differs from the
United States, that has territory
from ocean to ocean. Brazil does not
cross the mountains, but lies alto
gether east of the Andean chain This
may be the reason why so much of
her commerce is conducted by sea.
From every port on the Atlantic ocean
steamers ply to and from Europe, and
the United States, up and down the
coast. From the great trading cen
ters like Recife, Sac Salvador, Rio
deJanerio and Santos a network of
railways connects the interior with
the port, but communication overland
is as yet imperfectly developed At
the end of 1907 there were 1859
miles of railway in operation. This
leaves room for immense future de-
velopment, and the government is
wide awake to the opportunity.

Brazil is the largest republic in the

of productiveness as well. Perhaps
the advantage is really on the side of
Brazil, for the region in our own coun-

anything, is matched in the southern
republic by tropical wilderness, but
here something will grow; in fact this

The southern zone of Brazil lies all

only a small portion of Brazil, they are

they are making rapid progress owing

to the United States to be made into
