In the Congressional elections several
Of these opponents Of the Speaker in
the Republican ranks failed to be re-
elected and it will matter but little in
the SiXtY-tiIst Congress whether they
approved of the course pursued by
"Uncie Joe" or whether they did not.
This is true Of the Republican members
of the delegation from Nebraska, who
received very rough handling at the
polls, four of them failing to win re-
election. The Republican members Of
this delegation were said to be pledged
to oppose the reelection Of the Speaker,
but only one of them, Edmund H, Hin
shaw, has pulled through. Representa-
tatives Pollard, Boyd, Norris and Kin
kaid of Nebraska, well-known figures
in the House, will not return to Wash
ington in 1909.
The States in which the Democrats
made their gains were: Colorado, g.;

Republicans gained were Missouri, 2;

States, including Maryland, in which
the Republicans lost in certain districts
and won in others, thereby maintaining
the same ratio to the Democrats.
As the returns are brought in from
the outlying and closely contested dis
ticts the large number of votes polled
by the Republicans in the sunny South
grows more and more apparent. The
Fifth, Eight and Tenth districts in
North Carolina have gone Republican,

Now, county officers and district
presidents, we can carry out the plan of
work adopted by this convention if we
all do our respective duties. Will we
do it? Superintendent and secretaries
OF schools, we can have a better organ
lzatlon, leading to more inspiring work
IN every school in Garrett county, if we
all put our shoulder to the wheel and
send In our reports, giving condition of
work in our schools to the county secre-
tary or to the district presidents, and
this can be done with little effort on the
part of each one. Shall it be done?
Try it, and let every one do his work on
time. Let US see how much improve
ment can be made in one year; how
many Home Departments we can have
IN working order; how many Teachers
Training Glasses; how many Adult Bible
Classes; how many Cradle Rolls.

SCHOOL JAN1ToRs PROTEST.
Formal Action Taken at Meeting
Filed With Capt. Oyster.

At largely attended meeting of the
janitors of public schools. held recently,
committee was appointed to protest to
the board of education against certain
alleged practices of the building inspector
of the District.
The protest filed with Capt. James F.
Oyster. president of the board. states that
the janitors of the public schools protest
to the board of education against what
seems to be the practice of the building
inspectors office of having reports pub
lished about the janitors which upon In
vestigation prove baseless.
THE janitors of the public schools feel
that they have been treated very unjustly
by the present building inspector, who
seemingly delights in publishing reports
detrimental to the janitors. These re-
ports are made by incompetent and unre-
liable subordinates. and are forwarded by
the building inspector without ascertain
ing the truth or falsity of the same
