During the past few months it has been
frequently stated by competitors and

chased at extremely low prices from
Sears, Roebuck & Co., of Chicago, and
from various department stores. The

been reported to us that statesmen from

The statement has also been made by var
our statesmen and others that the Buick

they stood were written into the State

At the first show of fraud i'm the
McNulty precinct, Mr.. German met
the situation unflinchingly and gave
the force and authority Of his posi-
ton al the nominee for Governor to
the movement for an investigation.
In his speech OF acceptance Mr.Gor-
man went beyond the platform in his
pledges for good government His
assurances were as definite and salts

in far more favorable position than
would have been thought possible be-

If such a condition does exist, we

Washington, who Is known to be one

To the hands OF a bold and skillful

rural delivery-men, and letter carri-

the entire voting population Of the

tenacles embrace every home can be
made to do valiant service for any

their belief that the people have q

to center upon the legislature and rorce

liquor gang OF Baltimore which mas
killed the local option bill twice, and
not content with robbing the people
of the right to vote On the liquor
question, has stolen votes actually
cast on other questions.

b. placed on trial al the result OF a

methods i'm Atlantic City. The jury
returned indictments against a num-
Der OF persons, accusing them of vari-
GUS offenses against the election

Because of these stupendous frauds

The sale of all the thoroughbredS

been announced. This means not
alone the horses In training, but the
mares and the stations that are
chartered at the Walden Farm, at
Middleburg, Md. The announcement
will bring regret from the entire turf
world, for it means the end Of one
OF the oldest and most respected
stables of America. More than 81
years ago Francis Morris raced here
in Maryland a number Of the best hor-
ses or the day, and he was one or the
first of our turfmen to make an Eng
lish invasion. Later on one OF mis-
sons, John A. Morris, took up the
stable and made OF 1t, under the
care of the late Wyndham Walden. one
or the powerful aggregations III the
country. To name the great horses
that carried the "all scarlet" would
mean repeating pages of turf history.
Just a memory OF Brittanic, Russell,
The Friar, Ambulance, Bowling
Brook, Reckon, Correction and those
of later decade means naming the
winners OF practically every stake OF
in the entire country:
During the last four or five years
the present owners Of the stable ..
Fl. Morris and ID. Fl. Morris, have not
been able to keep up an active in
