YESTERDAYS ELECTION.

The success of Alexander j. Wed
derburn in carrying the city OF Alex
andria over r. E. Thornton, the
Democratic nominee, for the State
Senate, yesterday, overshadoWs all
other election news here today, and
the politicians are busy trying to fig-
ure out the reason for Mr.. Wedder-
burns surprising victory. Without
going into the matter fully it may be
stated that Mr.. Wedderburn's victory
was largely a personal one. For
many years he has worked hard tor
the advancement of Alexandria and
the people evidently thought that he
should be rewarded for his efforts
At the same time, party lines were
not too closely drawn, as Mr.. Wedder-
burns democracy was not questioned
There is no doubt but that the
republicans in Alexandria voted sol
idly against the Democratic candidate
and their votes added to Mr.. Wedder-
burns personal strength were sufll-
cient to gain him the majority.
The Democratic leaders were I'M
doubtedly caught mapping and only
fifty per cent of the full strength OF
the Democratic party was polled.
In Alexandria county the bitter
fight which has been waged for the
mast six months was brought to a
close without the violence which had
been anticipated. There were many
surprises in the results, particularly
the defeat OF Curtis Graham for
Commissioner Of Revenue and the
big majority of Crandall Mackey over
Dick Moncure.

Twentieth Century Barbarism.

There can be but little doubt that
the Italians in Tripoli are in preca-
rious plight Reports, from what
seem to be reputable sources. reveal
that the desperate Turks and Arabs
are playing havoc with the Italian
army as it seeks to withstand the
relentless assaults Of these indomlta-
BILE fighters. In addition to the ter
rors Of battle, the cholera plague has
broken out among the soldiers, and
presents new cause Of alarm. The
valor OF the Italians has not been
challenged, but the soldiers are said
to be discouraged and dissatisfied and
eager to have done with the horrible
affair.
Such is war. Almost inconceiv-
able is the spirit and condition that
makes war, with its hate and its
havoc, possible in this century. Yet
this is not the end In the uprising
and dominance Of the primal pas
sions in time Of war men lose their
likeness to human beings and, casting
ali kindness to the winds. they lend
themselves to the preparation OF
cruelties and atrocities that charac-
teriZe the darker days OF savagery.
From sources that cannot be Ques-
toned comes the news that the ltal-
ians have lost themselves in a frenzy
of hate and revenge, and men who are
supposed to represent the Cross III
this warfare with the Crescent have
everywhere joined in frantic riot
of barbaric butchery, numbering and
mutilating innocent children and
helpless women. Those narrowing
cruelties, for which the ''unspeakable
Turk" has long been condemned and
cursed by civilized society, are now
characterizing the campaign OF the
men who claim allegiance 10 the
Christ. ss@sEg
Such is war. Meanwhile Christian
nations stand by and inpatient!
