After an active campaign of several
weeks, and with the election within a
few days time, it is probable every voter
has decided how he will cast his ballot on
Tuesday next, November 2.
Given the right of suffrage, it is the
duty of everyone enjoying that privilege
to avail himself of it. And with the
secret Australian ballot he has the op.
portunity of voting according to the die
tates of his conscience. for those candi
dates. who, in his judgment are best
qualified for the public Offices to be filled,
and those principles which most nearly
coincide with his views, without being
hampered and unduly influenced, as was
possible when the old vestpocket form of
ballot was in general use.
The adoption of the Australian form of
ballot and voting has done much to en-
courage and promote independence in
voting, which makes for better condi-
tions politically, the intelligent voter no
longer permitting himself to be swayed
by blind partizanship in the marking of
candidates on his ballot, this independ
ence being reflected in the nominees of
the parties, each striving to place before
the voter candidates in every respect
worthy of election.
The voting for candidate merely be-
cause he is the party nominee, regardless
of his qualifications, is poor form of
politics, and a reflection on the intelli-
gence of the voter, hence let ever regis
tered voter of the county go to the polls
on Tuesday next, and receiving his bal
lot from the clerk, take it into the booth
and mark the candidates of his choice,
thereby giving expression to his honest
convictions, whether or not they be in
accord with those of some self const ituted
party worker with selfish motives, and
he will have done his duty to the fullest.

viii deprive no white voter in this State of his

Annual Report OF Maryland Agi-
cultural Experiment Station.


We have received the twenty.second
annual report on the work and e1pendi-
lures of the Maryland Agricultural Ex-
pertinent Station, and recommendations
for enlarging its sphere of usefulness, a
comprehensive volume of some 900 pages.
Director H. ]. Patterson in presenting his
report says:
1.-THE present state administration and
its Chief Executive, Governor Crothers,
will ever be remembered for the position
which has been taken to give this State
Good Roads. There is nothing which
could have been done that would do so
much towards advancing the financial,
educational, social and spiritual interests
of the people. The next great step which
another epoch in our states progress, is
to develop and conserve our natural re-
sources. The greatest natural resource in
this state is unquestionably the soil. The
development of this resource will be of in
estimable value in increasing the revenues
of this state, and in promoting the happi-
ness of our people. believe that the
Maryland Agricultural College and Elk
pertinent Otatlon, Wuen Iuily equipped,
can be great factor for developing and
conserving the agricultural resources of
the state, and that great opportunity
rests with this Board of Trustees and the
present State Administration to set on
foot an active movement to this end. The
expense involved in such a project will
necessarily be large. but when all things
are considered the total amount will be
but bagatelle when measured by the
results attained"

official ballot to be voted at the November

Mr.. Charles H. Carter, president Of the
Board of Supervisors of Election, says
the board will not contest the Judges de-
cision.
The refusal of the board was based on
the fact that she is woman, and Judge
Stockbridge held that neither the board
nor the court has the right to pass upon
the qualifications of nominee. Those,
he said, must be determined after election
by the House of Delegates.

DEVELOPMENT OF
GREAT INDUSTRY

From Leslies Weekly.
The recent death in New York of Brad
ford Scheiffelin, who had hand in in
Producing petroleum commercially to the
world, shows that this great industry has
been developed within the lifetime of
many men still actively at work 1t was
in 1860 that Mr.. Schieffelin started in this
field. He was not the first man who fig
ured prominently in exploiting petro-
leum, but he was early enough in this
activity to secure a large place among It's
pioneers. 1t was on August 2S 1852 that
Edwin T. Drake struck oil" in his well
near Titusvile, Pa. Oil had been found
in springs in several parts of Pennsyl-
vania before that date but Drake bored
the first well for it which the United
States saw. Petroleum production as a
recognized industry began at that time.
From a production of $4,000 gallons in
1859, the petroleum output of this coun-
try reached more than 6,000000,000 gallons
In 1908. The United States furnishes over
sixty per cent. OF the worlds entire pro-
duction of this OIL The average annual
value of the petroleum output of the
United States in recent times has been
about $130, 900, 000 1t may be said that oil
production and refining on large organ
lied scalefin this country began with the
establishment of the Standard Oil COM
pany in 1870. From 264,0000O0 gallons in
that year the output of crude oil reached
1000, OO0 900 gallons in 1880, 2,O00, 100000 in
1891, 5000 100000 in 1901, 1000 100000 in 1908,
5000, O00,0 900 in 1905, and crossed the $780,
900 900 mark in 1908. John d. Rockefeller.
william Rockefeller, H. M. Flagler, John
d. Archbold II. H. Rogers, and others of
the present partners in that company had
been in the oil business several years be-
fore 1870, but 1t was then, and largely
through the energy, foresight and intel
ligent direction of these men, that produc-
ton reached high figures. and that the
price of this necessity of American life
,uas reduced to its present low level.
