Forecast From Figures
Elkton, Nd, May 18th,

Elkton, Md, May 18th, 1910.
Mr.. Editor:-The real significance
OF the recent town election should not
be overlooked.
While a number OF causes contribut-
ed to the result, the chief cause was
the growing opposition-now es
where apparent in this county--to the
Crothers. rule.
Our people have, at last grown
weary OF the selhshness and incompe-
tency OF that rule and they are taking
advantage of every opportunity to
manifest their disapprovel of it.
The Crothers-T Tucker Machine r.oni-
mated Mr.. James F. Powers for Presi-
dent and Dr. w. ID. Cawley for Town
Commissioner, and it issued orders
to its retainers to elect that ticket
but the people no longer take their
orders from that quarter.
The total registered vote OF the
town. in round numbers, is 400. of
which about $50 are Democrats and
100 are Republicans
At the election, Oh Monday last,
800 votes were polled, of which Mr..
Powers and DR.. Cawley, the Crothers-
Tucker nominees, received an average
of 100 and DR.. Mitchell and MIR. Giles,
both anti Crothers. Democrats, receiv-
ed an average OF 255.
In other words, the nti-Crothers
vote outnumbered the Crothers vo,
more than two to one, and that iii a
town where the Machine has its head
quarters, where the Governor is sup
posed to reside and where the Demo-
cratic vote exceeds the Republican.
vote in the proportion OF nearly three
to one.
The TACT is, the Crothers influence in
this town is at an end and that it has
about run its course i'll this county was
shown by the election last November.
The Crothers- Tucker machine may
as well get ready to go out OF bust
ness, for while the writer is neither a
prophet nor the son OF prophet. he
ventures the prediction that it will
never carry another election either in
this town or county.

~UR little town election on Mon
~ day ought to be evidence
enough for anybody that the
Crothers-T Tucker machine is most tho-
oughly distrusted here in the place
where it is most intimately known.
There was no disposition to attack the
gentlemen who composed the Or
ganzation'' ticket The attack was on
the Machine back OF that ticket, and by
an overwhelming majority the people
OF this town said emphatical'y that
they want nothing with that Machines
brand on it.
The election further emphasized
what we have contended Tor years
that the Crothers- Tucker Machine has
lived largely by the purchasable vote
by the support OF those who are sub
sidized either by office or cash. In a
square and lair stand-up fight, between
citizens, that Machine made pitiful
showing.
