German Fight Unlikely.

Friends of Senator German are divided
in their advice to him concerning the
propriety of his contesting the elec.
ton of Mr.. Goldsborough. During the
last few days many persons have urged
upon him plans for contest, all based
on the assumption that more ballots
marked for him were thrown out in
Baltimore than Mr. GoIdsborough got
majority in. the city.
Senator German has declined to dis
cuss the Situation and would not make
any statement 1t is believed by those
close to him that there will be no con-
test.
A canvass is being made by the
Baltimore city organization of the 321
precincts of the city to ascertain from
the Democratic judges and clerks how
many ballots marked for senator
German were thrown out because of
wrong marking in the column where Mr..
William II. Bruno appeared as "Pro-
gressive Democrat. 1t has been
claimed that at least $500 and pro-
baby 5000 ballots were thrown out.
Some who profess to be familiar with
the situation doubt that the number
will exceed 1.5OO or 1900. Reports
from certain wards indicate that if the
percentage of ballots thrown out con-
tinues as it has been reported in the
last days it will reach, by the organiza-
tion's calculation, about 1000.
But Senator Germans friends say
the surest way to discover how many
ballots were actually thrown out is to
open the boxes and, as there are defeat
ed Democratic legislative candidates in
the Second, Third and Fourth legislative
districts, at least of these in each dis
trict would gladly enter contest to
have the boxes opened and the number
of invalidated ballots revealed.
The law provides that the Legislature
canvass the Gubernatorial vote, and
whenever defeated candidate for the
Legislature desires to contest the seat
of the election legislator with the low
est majority it is ordered that testimony
be taken before a civil magistrate and
that the boxes be opened.
Contests in three districts would
show how many ballots had been
th-own out in 18 wards, and if it ap-
peared that more ballots had been put
out in baltimore than Mr.. Goldsborougf
got majority, than, friends of Senator
German say, he should appeal to the
courts to settle the question of whether
| or not those ballots could rightfully be
thrown out if the Supervisors o.
Elections had not allowed Mr.. Bruno
| illegally to 60 on the ticket.
Some contend that the word ''Inde
pendent should have proceeded "Pro
| gressive Democrat" after Mr.. Brune's
name, and they say that if the courts
hold that the failure on the part of the
supervisors to do this was illegal Mr.
German should then appeal to the Leg
islature to accept him as Governor.

What To Do In Case Of A Forest Fire.

The annual damage caused by forest
fires is enormous. Inview of the fast
that most of these fires are from will.
| fulness, or carelessness, attention is
called to the following provisions OF
the State Forest Laws.
The law requires that "Any one who
discovers a forest or brush fire not
under the control or supervision of
some person" shall extinguish it or re-
port it Immediately to the local Forest
Warden or Patrolmen. Failure to do
so is punishment by fine of $40.
The Forest Wardens, or Forest Pa
trolmen of this county are: W. II.
Benton, Berwyn, W. Feston Belt, Up
per Marlboro, Geo. P. Bewley, Ber-
wyn, Il. B. Brady, Aquasco, w. S.
Chichester, Aquasco, John snowden,
Laurel
In case of fire the local Forest
Warden, or Patrolman, should be
notified Immediately. The law re-
quires that the landowner, or tenant,
on whose lands the fire is burning shall
do all he can with the help he has on
his place to control the fire, and pre-
vent his escape to other lands. Upon
the arrival of the Forest Warden he
will assist the landowner and if more
help is needed he will obtain the men
and direct their work, the expense of
such service to be paid by the County
and State.
No back-fring is allowed on lands
without the consent of the owner, ex-
cepting under the direction of the For
est W arden who is authorized, by law,
to start back-fires, plow burrows, tear
down fences. whenever the necessity
arises in order to check a fire.
A strict enforcement of the law will
reduce to minim um the forest fires in
the county. 1t is the duty of everyone,
who wants the forest protected from
fire, to cooperate with and assist, the
Forest Wardens in enforcing the law
and to punish anyone who violates it.

HEROIsM OF HER MOTHER

Little One 10 In Flames.

Little Mildred Vance, seven years
old, was fatally burned at her home
in Dallas. Her mother left the kitch-
en- to visit an ill neighbor She had
lust gone when she heard the little one
screaming. Rushing back the lady
discovered the child wrapped in names
and with a coal oil can grasped in :
hand.
The mother grabbed her child and
carried her iuto the yard, in the mean
time screaming for help. Neighbors
were attracted to the scene and aided
in extinguishing the urning clothing
of the little girl. Before tine clothing
was torn from her, however, her tiesE
was burned almost to 8 crisp over a
large portion OF her body and her lips
and tongue were badly burned, show
ing that she had inhaled the flames.
The hands and arms of the mother
we're also burned to blisters.
Just how the accident occurred is
not known From the fact that Mill
dred had the coal oil can leads TO the
belief that she had attempted to make
fire in stove with oil in which wa>
embers and an explosion resulted, set
ting her clothing on fire.
