A BALLOT ISLANDER NAILED.

The Baltimore Sun Of the 29th in
slant contained statement to the
effect that the Democratic supervis-
or-had not been consulted as to the
make up Of the official ballot to be
used in tn S county.
We brand the statement as abso-
lutely and unqualifedly false. There
has been no Getting Of the Board of
Election Supervisors Of this County
without the attendance Of the Demo-
cratic member to which he will bear
testimony. The meeting held on
Friday the % inst. to agree on the
form Of the ballot was advertised in
both the County papers that the
public might have full information
which was not done before when the
crooked political scamps now howl
ing controlled the Board, and the
Democratic member was present.
There was not, as we are informed, a
jar or contention about the formation
Of the ballot or anything else. The
law the last session If the legisla-
ture passed, called for 10 other pnr-
pose but to take parting shot at
trick ballot making, provides that the
names Of the presidential candidates
shall be printed in alphabetical order
according to the surnames Of the re-
spective candidates. This the Board
unanimously agreed should be done.
The same law provides that the
names of candidates for Congress
shall be printed in alphabetical order
according to their surnames. This the
Board unanimously agreed should be
done. The relative positions of the
different candidates for Office on
the ballots is an open question SO far
as the law goes and left to the dis
cretion Of the Board. On this point
majority of the Board favored the
printing Of the group Of Congression-
al candidates at the top of the first
column, there being over thirty-six
names on the ticket has TO be in
accordance with the law Of two
columns, and then the presidential
groups to follow. Mr.. Burch thought
the group Of Presidential candidates
should come first and the Congress
sional candidates last. But no wrangle
ensued, Mr.. Bnrch after giving his
reasons conserving t. the position
assumed by majority of he Board
on the point Saturday was fixed as
the day the order was to be given to
print the ballots and the President of
the Board, Mr.. J. H. Howard, and
the Democratic member, Mr.. Buroh
were delegated to perform that duty.
Mr.. Howard went to Baltimore City
but Mr.. Burch did not go. Upon
arriving in Baltimore, SO we are in
formed, and after consultation, the
information was yonched that it

cay While his theories and dreams
were being tested. Placing the two
men side by side and their records,
as well as their stand upon all public
questions there il no question but
thar Mr.. Taft stands superior to Mr..
Wilson in every respect, and much
better fitted TO preside over the des-
tiny Of this Nation.
TIE people of this country must
not only re-elect MIR. Taft President
bat they should elect a Congress 10
sympathy " tn him in order that the
Republican Policies can be cared
out. The people Of this district can
take part in the Election Of but one
Congressman. The Republicans
have nominated as their candidate
for Congress, the Honorable Thomas
Parran Of Calvert County. Mr..
Partan has bad over thirty years OF
experience in public affairs and his
stand upon all public measures has
been for the best interests Of the
people. lie has always been found
on the right side Of all public ques-
tons During the two years that he
has served the people in Congress he
has made an excellent record especi-
ally when il is taken in consideration
that the Congress o. the United
States in the last two years has been
Democratic. He has always bee7 on
the job and served the people Of this
District faithfully aud well. That
he has the necessary qualifications
for the office cannot he questioned.
lie has the energy and force andam-
bition to do much fo- the people Of
his district and il again elected for
Congress, he will again, as in the last
two years, be unceasing il his labors
and untriing in his energy TO serve
the people Of his district. Ills OPP
ponent has not had the experience
necessary for this office, nor has he
had the experience in public affairs
that Mr.. Parran has had. He is a
new man and as yet untried in the
field OF National Legislation and
Government. The people want
and should have as their representa-
tive in Congress an experienced man
and not an inexperienced one. Why
turn out an experienced man who
has done much for his District and
State for man who has had no ex
perience in National affairs in the
halls Of Congress, where it would
take at least the first ts 70
years to learn the ropes of Office.
We therefore urge the voters Of this
County to go to the polls on Tuesday
Lext and east their vote for William

biggest events in cycling.
In 1905 and 1906 Friol defeated Frank
Kramer in open and match races abroad
although the American title holde turned
the tables in other races.
Owing to the continued wet weather
the forty professional riders quartered at
the Velodrome have been unable to ride
since Sunday. In order to keep in con-
ditlon they have resorted to all sorts
of indoor work. Some are boxing and
skipping rope, while others are using
chest weights, wrestling and riding home
trainers. Carlo Messori, the giant Italian
champion, who Is to meet Frank cav
anagh in a match race Sunday, is very
fond of the grappler's art and wrestles
for two hours every day with Tricky
Comes. the French rider. and little Nor
man Hansen. the amateur champion Of
Denmark. Messori is strobg as a ear

though they we're mere infants.

riders who have qualified for the final
of the Grand Prize of Newark. Sunday,

The weather is of no concern to Kramer
who is in such grand shape he is training
only two days each week. The weather
seems to be breaking, just right for the

one run on forty-two hits. That's
splitting them pretty evenly and making
them count. Since leaving home the

reason might be that all ball-playess
claim that 1t is difficult to hit ON the
Newark grounds; 1t always has been,
and it's very seldom that any team goes
above ten or twelve base hits in the
Tigers lair. Another and better reason
is that the Tigers, every one of them,

HOW THE TIGERS ARE
HITTING THE BALL

The Iron Man. has figured out to a
nicely, however, that with Zimmerman
halfway down his batting order, and
Eddie zimmerman aud Smith following,
there Is no weak end to his batting Or
der. His theory has been proven time
and again when Billy Zimmerman gets
on and steals, and Eddie Zimmerman
comes through With a hit. If Eddie does
not. then there's Cap. Smith ready to
rap one out.
Kirk Is a great base runner, and with
Collins, Swacina and Seymour hitting
behind him he has an excellent chance
of getting around.
An Improvement.

HIS RIVAL, MONDAY

After throwing each other around for
fifteen minutes and thirty-five seconds
at Miners Theatre last night like a pair
or bulls, George Bothner finally
secured a double head lock and pinned
Young Monday to the canvas.
The preliminary bout resembled a box
ing match more than what IL was billed
for. Sandelli, the Greek, secured a re-
verse body hold on Honus, the Ger

mat after graphing for thirteen minutes.
Goodman, the New York nit artist,

he may know the boxing anne his
knowledge of wrestling is far from being
complete.

When Manager Chapman got word that
Goullet was not coming here he imme-

representative and signed Friol.
Friol is the greatest match race rider

GOLFERS TOO
MUCH FOR TIGERS

NEW YORK, May 9.-In a team match
over the links of the Apawamis club yes
terday Yale golfers defeated Princeton S

days
A feature of the play was the match
between Stanley and Albert Seckei, won

bench Doom was in a shaky condition
and was unable to direct the playing OF
the team. This devolved on Doolan.
While the injury to the Phillies' man
ager is not serious, it is more thar ike

not In such fine condition before the In
Jury and 1t was only his nerve that car

games here.
Magee Is starting to show some OF. his

TO the game In the role of pinch hitter
