A GREAT VICTORY

The success Of the bond issue in
Spotsylvania is a victory of present
day progress over "old timeism." 1t
means the .beginning of a new era
for Fredericksburg and Spotsylvania,
an awakening among the people, a
determination to go ahead. The fight
was hard one, but the result more
than compensates. 1t is not conceit
to say that to this result the press
was large contributor. The news
papers are the friends of good roads.
and the newspapers have influence in
the homes of the people. A large
part of the credit, however, belongs
to the Fredericksburg Good Roads
Association. which bore the brunt of
the fight, raising the funds from
Fredericksburg business men with
which to conduct the campaign.
The most credit after all though, can
rightly be claimed by the intelligent
voters of Spotsylvania who had the
nerve and the courage to take a long
step towards the front.

THE FIGHT ON CANNON

Speaker Cannon's effort to read
out of the Republican party the So
called insurgents and progressives
such as Senators La Toilette, Cum
minis, Dolliver and others. and Rep
resentatives Fowler. Parsons, Muir
dock and their colleagues who had
the courage to protest by adverse
votes against his despotic rule as
Speaker Of the House, is apt to prove
a dismal failure and may end by de-
feating Mr.. Cannon for reelection.
To ais latest speeches pitching into
these men Senator La Follette's
magazine replies. and the broadside
fired at the car of the House isn't
likely to improve his temper. Mr..
Cannon is too old to realize that the
scenes of the last Congress, when he
narrowly escaped being shorn of all
of his powers, is but the beginning
of the end. He is too old and TOO
pugnacious. too obstinate and too
short-sighted to grasp the significance
of the progressive move inside the
Republican party, which promises to
be the only thing which can save
that party from a disastrous defeat
in the next few years. The present
policy of the Republican old-line
leaders, such as Aldrich and Cannon,
is to continue the stand-pat position
assumed for 10 these many years.
which means high tariff, protection
of the special interests and other
things along this line. These pro-
gressive Republicans, realizing that
a continuation of this policy means
the wreck Of the party, have taken
the bit in their teeth and have de-
termined by fighting in their own
party to drive Cannon to the woods.
If they succeed they will deserve the
thanks Of the entire country.

Pittsburg. Nov. BY a small ma
jority Pittsburg decided in favor OF a
bond issue OF s6.775.00O for improve
ments to the city. The bond issue was
a favorite move Of Mayor W. A. Magee
and H. c. Frick
There was much opposition shown
TO the bond ordinance by those who
lived far from the center OF the city
that United States Sendtor Boies Pen
rose came to Pittsburg last week to
look over the ground himself. Up until
his arrival It did not seem that the
bond issue had a chance, but with the
two days spent by Penrose new life
was put into the matter and II has
won.
Defeat of the bond issue meant
much to Pennsylvania politics. and 1t
was admittedly test Of strength OF
Penrose and his opponents in western
Pennsylvania. Already there Is form
ing a party, to be headed by State
Treasurer John o. Sheath. to attempt
the wrestling of power from Penrose.

Charles Gauss, his Democratic oppon-

The closing days Of the campaign
centered entirely upon the moral as
pects of the race. and the temperance
people generally came gradually TO the
support of Shank. under the belief that
the election OF Gauss would mean the
triumph of the brewery element and
give that class complete control Of
the city.
The most notable Republican victory
in Indiana appears to have been won
in the city of Fort Wayne. where the
Berghoff brewery interests nominated
man by the name Of Schmidt for
mayor on the Democratic ticket. The
Republicans nominated a man named
Grice. The campaign was waged
against the saloon influences that have
50 lonf dominated that city and the
Republicans elected their candidate by
a majority OF about 300.

A feature OF the election was the
remarkable run made by c. LaRue

tice. Munson swept county after coun-
ty Of Republican territory In the In
terror OF the state.
While returns on the supreme court
iudgeship are meager and may not be
known with ony degree OF accuracy for
a day or two. II can be taken as fact
that the heavy straight Republican
vote In the big machine counties OF
Philadelphia and Allegheny has smoth-
cred Munson's country majorities.
When Berry. Democrat. won the
state treasurership four years ago by
$4,000 plurality he had plurality of
$4,000 in Philadelphia. The Republican
nominee for the supreme court has
much larger Philadelphia majority
than that, while Munson's country ma
jorities don't seem to run as high as
Berry's.
Stober. for state treasurer. and Sis
son. for auditor general. are elected
BY good margins. though they received
nowhere near the normal Republican
vote.
No attempt was made to gather re-
turns through the state on the ten
proposed constitutional amendments.
but II is regarded as pretty certain
that they have carried. with the posi-
bic exception of number seven, which
carried a provision allowing the ap-
pointment of election officers In cities.
