MARSHAL FORCED OUT.
Portsmouth, N. H., Official Settled .
Peculiar Situation.

Portsmouth, n. H., Dec. l7.--City Mar.
shal Thomas Entwistle's sudden resigna
ton yesterday and its immediate ac.
ceptance by the police commission in the
afternoon led last night to withdrawal
of the petition by the citizens com.
mittee asking for removal of both po-
lice commissioners and city marshal.
This gave new and unexpected turn
to the complications over the police adj
ministration which have followed the re-
cent election, when Mayor Badger was
reelected after campaign in which the
police department and the moral condi-
tion of the city were leading issues.
Mayor Badger, Harold w. Bennett,
Harry Il. Boynton and the Rev. Lucius
A. Thayer formed what they called the
citizens committee. They sought to get
Entwistle removed from office. Last
week they got Attorney General Tuttle
to come to Portsmouth and in less than
two hours he had arrested four women
J, and sent them back to Jail to work out
suspended sentences. Five other arrests
were made in a crusade against houses
which had been under surveillance.
No one knew that Marshal Entwistle
had resigned yesterday until the two
members of the police commissioned
NJ. Il. Frye and Col. True L. Norris
sent word to the citizens committee that
they had received the resignation. The
commissioners asked what they should
do with it. The committee answered
that it must be accepted at once. The
demand was carried out promptly.
Last night the committee sent ont
statement declaring that their chief aim
had been to secure the removal of Ent-
wistle, and. since they had accomplished
this, they intended to withdraw their
petition for investigation by the gov
ernor and his council They asserted
that they felt certain that they could
now carry out needed reforms.

The aALFvorE FOR WILSON,.

Republican voters should remember
that a vote cast for any other candi-
date than President Taft is a half
vote for Wilson, because the gain and
loss is equally divided between. the
two leading candidates, who are Taft
land Wilson. If there are, for in
stance, five regular republicans, who
are credited to Taft, and five other
voters, who are credited to Wilson,
land if one of the Taft voters decided
to vote for Wilson it will decrease
Taft's vote one and increase Wilson's
vote one, giving the latter two more
votes than Taft. But if one Taft yot-
er decided to cast his ballot for a
third party candidate (RoosevelD,
Wilson's total would remain the same
and Taft's would be reduced one. CIV
ing Wilson one more vote than Taft.
This would be the same as if one
half vote were taken from Taft and
given TO Wilson, reducing Taft one
half and increasing Wilson one-half
Every republican vote cast for Roose-
welt therefore is half vote for Will
ison, and if enough republicans vote
for Roosevelt TO reduce Taft's vote
below that of Wilson the latter will
be elected. Ii is not expected, even
by the Roosevelt leaders, that the
colonel will be elected. The fight lies
between Taft and Wilson. The demo
Gratis are counting on enough repub-
- 4. l..
Taft's lead over their candidate. All
republicans who desire to avoid the
tragedy of democratic tariff slaughter
and soup houses, should vote for raft.
They should not allow their admira-
ton for Roosevelt as a vigorous speci-
men of manhood and a strenuous
leader attract them away from their
party and cause the country to fall
into the hands of the democrats.

bushels, but some thousand bushels
had to be left in the ground, as the
doctor could not get the necessary
