FATHER AND DAUGHTER BOTH
WE'D.

Jacob Conard, widower, and Mrs.
Virginia L. Donivan, a widow, both OF
Harrisonburg, Va, we're married Sum
day. Mr.. Conard is none other than
the irate father who went in pursuit OF
his pretty 16-year-old daughter Beatrice
September 16. The girl wanted to
marry Clyde Carpenter, the newsboy
on the Southern Railway, and ran away
from home. She was arrested, held in
the House OF Detention at Washington
and taken back to Harrisonburg by the
angry parent.
Never mind, will marry Clyde af-
ter all, see il l DON'T" we're the last
words the girl said to the Washington
reporters as the train pulled out of
Union Station.
Two weeks ago Clyde stole into Har-
risonburg late Saturday night, and the
marriage took place. To everybody
surprise Mr.. Conard gave his consent
and went with the couple to hunt a
preacher, the wedding taking place be-
fore midnight.
Sundays marriage explains why the
father capitulated so unexpectedly.
Beatrice had been keeping house for
the family since the death OF her mother
three years ago.

Predict Democratic Victory.

Buffalo, N. Y, Oct. 25.-Chairman
Norman K. Mack, OF the democratic
national committee and Chairman
James T. Lloyd Of the democratic con-
gressioual campaign committee, are
out with election forecasts in current
number OF National Mouthly.
Its going to be democratic sweep
from Maine to California" says Mack.
Not in years have we witnessed a
better fight than is being put up in
every state in the union by the state
organizations"
Mack sees certain victory for the
democrats in New York, Ohio, New
Jersey, Nebraska, Indiana and Cali
forna.
Nowhere does there seem to be any
party DIVISION" says the chairman.
And even down in old England
there is a sniff of party victory
in the air. Judge Baldwin's
fight in Connecticut is a winning one,
and New Hampshire is sufficiently
alarmed to send for Theodore Roose-
welt to make a few speeches. d"
Congressman Lloyd says:
I'VE are now able to estimate with
some degree Of accuracy the effect that
the appearance OF ex-President Roose-
welt on the stump will have on the cleo
ton. Apparently it is not beneficial
TO either wing of the republican party,
for he has shown himself to be neither
a safe 'insurgent' nor reliable stand
natter. ~

Roosevelt and the Tariff.

Geneva, n. Y, Oct. 25.-For the
first time in his speeches in this state,
Theodore Roosevelt this afternoon pub
licly admitted that he regretted the
tariff plank which was adopted by the
Saratoga convention.
Il am sorry to say" he said, that
the republican convention was so in
terested in state concerns that it did not
take as progressive position on the
tariff as it should. President Taft and
the republican party almost universally
are in harmony OH the suggestion that
hereafter the tariff shall be revised by
a commission. All republicans are
certain to finally come to this position. "

Waukegan, ILL.,, Oct 25.-"Sufi-
cient" Crombie is the name OF a tiny
baby girl who arrived yesterday at the
home of Frederick Crombie, a press
man. Sufficient" is the sixth child
and fourth daughter, and her name
was bestowed by the father when news
of the arrival Of the stork was broken
to him. Il am not referring to the
old law, Sufficient to the day is the
evil thereof, ," said Mr. Crombie, be-
cause | am a good Roosevelt man; but
six children for a man in my circum-
stances is rather piling it on, and-well,
suificient-and that is why we named
the baby Sufficient. That will be plenty,
thank you, unless inherit fortune
or get a good raise in pay.

cubs win BUILD Up Its Team.

Chicago, Oct. 25.-Only one thought
animates Manager Frank Chance OF
the defeated Chicago Cubs today and
that it is once more acclaimedas the
champions of the world He realizes
that he has herculean task on his
hands, but Chance likes fight as well
as the next one, and is already planning
his 1911 campaign. 1t is taken for
granted that there will be several new
faces in the Cubs lineup next year
and it is probable that the changes will
be most apparent in the pitchers box.
The great work OF Schultz, Sbeckard
and Holman in the outfield during the
series with the Athletics makes this
trio look good for another season, but 1t
would surprise no one il either Sheckard
or Schultz were passed up for young
er player. Certain it is that Chance
will try out more new outielders next
year than for several years. Harry
SteinfeIdt will undoubtedly give way to
new man at third and this man will
in all probability be Heine thinner
man, who, in his trial at third this year,
played great ball. Zimmerman fell
down in bis betting in the champion
ship series, but Chance still has great
faith in him. II Evers' leg RECEIVERS,
little Johnny will, Of course, be at
second base again, but there is much
doubt as to whether his broken limb
will ever permit him to shine as in
former years. Several new men will be
trained for Evers' place.
Brown, Reulbach, Pfeister and Over
all are all on the downgrade, and
Chance will have to work overtime TO
prevent q collapse OF his pitching
strength. It's possible that Reulbach,
who was handicapped this year by an
attack OF diptheria, will regain all his
old time form next year. Cole looks
to be the Cubs mainstay in the box,
and young Weaver looks good.
1t now looks as though Archer will
be the Cubs chief catcher in 1911, with
King, the one-timed questioned
leader OF 'em all, playing the secondary
role.
Eddie Collins, the marvellous second
baseman of the worlds champion
Athletics, will on November Ord be
married to Miss Mable Harriet Doane,
of Clifford Heights. Philadelphia
suburb.

AS A champion Of the republican
principle the United States has usually
been prompt to recognize" arepublic.
When the French republic was four
days old the United States welcomed
it to the republican sisterhood. So did
Switzerland and Spain, the latter then
being under a provisional government.
Now our State Department seems in
clined te await some assurance that the
Portuguese republic has elements OF
stability before according it recognition.
Meanwhile, Portuguese question may
be pressed upon its attention very diff
ferent from the mere exchange OF dip
lomatic courtesies with the regime at
Lisbon. The AZOrean colonies IN
southern New England, notably strong
in New Bedford and Providence, judg-
ing from interviews published in the
newspapers Of those cities, do not take
kindly to the Portuguese republic,
which they believe will be Of alfew days
and full OF trouble. They apprehend
a partition Of the Portuguese colonial
empire, and ask why the United States
should not "asSimilate" their parent
islands. II they are going to live un-
der a republic, they prefer The United
States. The Monroe doctrine seems
70 be expanding.

Move To Amer Holland.

London, Oct. 25.-Germany is grad
ually drawing Holland into her grip.
Holland despairing Of British protec-
ton, is considering what terms she can
make with Germany. This informa-
ton is published by The Express, !"
which says that the statement is made
by Dutch gentleman of the highest
standing in Amsterdam. "Annexa-
tion," he adds, is a word which, il
used, no doubt would breed patriots,
but it would be called by another
name. A great deal would be talked
about preserving our integrity and also
about obtaining the protection Of the
great German Empire. 1t would be
suggested that our trade would derive
enormous advantages. All this would
sound better, but the result would be
the same"

Another strike Imminent.l

st. Louis, Oct. 25.-Affairs of the
Missouri Pacific and Iron Mountain
Railroad reached crisis today. All
members Of the Order Of Railroad
Trainmen, composed Of switchmen and
brakemen OF both passenger and freight
trains, will decide by ballot within
twelve hours whether they will defy the
management Of the roads and refuse to
haul non-union men who are imported
to take the places of $500 machinists,
boilermakers, blacksmiths and sheet
metal workers now on strike.
General Manager A. w. Sullivan has
issued an ultin,atum to the union Off
Gals that il the men refuse to obey
orders they will be dismissed without
notice.
Should the men decide to refuse to
haul the strike breaker and be dis
missed for disobedience, it is considered
probable that a sympathetic strike Of
all conductors and trainmen will be
called.

DEMOCRATIC PROSPECTS.

Democratic by from % to 80 is the
estimate given out at Washington
headquarters OF the democratic con-
gressional campaign committee as the
probable complexion Of the next House.
This estimate is based upon reports re-
ceived at Chicago headquarters, and
Professor Joseph II. Swimm made the
forecast, which differs but little from
the tentative claims made by Chair
man Lloyd weeks ago. The published
estimate does not go into details as to
where these democratic gains are TO be
accomplished, but it is we'll understood
that the democrats consider the east
their surest undergraduates OF the
Appalachian chain, which includes all
OF New England, part of New York,
a good slice OF Pennsylvania and all OF
New Jersey, Maryland and Delaware.
The hope is that at least 20 districts
representated by republicans will return
democrats. This will make switch OF
40 in the present relationship. The
remainder OF the gain the democrats
expect to make in the west, particularly
in Missouri, where they count upon
five new democrats. Following is the
way Professor Swimm arranges his
guess: Present membership, 391; re-
publicans 217; democrats, 1853; vacan-
cies, /. Next House, democratic mem
bership 2OS; sure republicans, 115; sure
insurgent republicans %; probable re-
publicans, 80; probable democrats, 16;
sure democratic majority, II; probable
democratic majority, % to 80.

bled at Brands request today. The

In accepting the democratic nomina-
ton for governor of Massachusetts
Mr.. Foss says:
We can equal the victory that
swept Maine from Quoddy Head to
KitterY Point. We can carry Massachu-
sets from Cape Cod to the Berkshires.
The great mass OF the people are in
sympathy with the spirit that animates
the democracy this year.
Every few years the democrats carry
Massachusetts, and the conditions
were never more favorable for it than
now. The example of Maine is an in
spiration, the vote FoSs got year ago
and for Congress last March is an
encouragement, and republican OPP
position to the present tariff law is a
motive power.

ALEXANDRIA, VA.
TUESDAY EVENING, OCT. .

MORE than once has it been urged
that the merchandise trade balance OF
the United States for two years past has
fallen heavily short of being enough to
meet the current Indebtedness OF this
country to the world on other accounts.
This matter is OF utmost importance
and OF far-reaching effect. Again, let
it be emphasized that London as the
clearing house of the world, today
stands master OF the financial situation
in America. Such declaration" says
the Philadelphia North American may
not be calculated to make the eagle
scream, neither does it cOmport with
the Wall street. desire, but 1t is none
the less true. 1T may be ignorantly or
with purpose disputed by fnanciers
and others in this country who might
we'll wish the situation otherwise, but
the fact is firmly grasped by the old
world banking interests. These inter
ests bank on the London Times. 1t
speaks with oracle-like authority. In
a recent issue this famous newspal or
states that for the fiscal year ended
June 80 last this country had to borrow
abroad 1925, 900, 900 to meet the de-
ficiency OF the trade balance in taking
care OF current obligations on other ac-
counts. On July II it was figured
that such deficiency amounted to
1923, 100000. That was read by
Americans, the borrowers. The
London Times speaks to the lenders.
And that in itself is important, es-
pecially in view of the fact that security
prices are being lacked up in New
York right in the face of an apparent
necessity TO sell more American securi-
ties abroad TO square current adverse
accounts. The Times, estimating
roughly, gives 5000, 100000 a year as
the sum which this country must pro-
vide in some way to meet interest and
dividend payments, expenses of Amerl-
cans travelling and living abroad, re-
mittances 10 aliens and freight and in
surance on our foreign trade.

reason given for the scarcity of pros
