county officials. was one OF the cloest
In many years. with returns up to 10
o'clock, tonight, in favor of the Re-
publicans. With half of the State
now on record, William I. Haines, the
Republican. had slight lead over
Governor Frederick w. Plaisted, and
the percentage system showed that Ii
the same ratio was maintained, the
Republicans would win the fight for
the head of the ticket by about 5000.
Returns frpin the four Congressional
districts also leaned toward the Re-
publicansB especially in the list, 3rl
and 4th' Districts, with the 2nd Dis
trict showing Democratic tinge.
The legislative returns were too
meager, up TO 10 o'clock, to give any
indication of the complexion of eth
er branch, so that the outcome of the
fight. next winter. for the United
States senatorship between Senator
Obadiah Gardner and Former Con-
gresham Edwin C. Burleigh was in
doubt.
The Democrats went into the State

on national issues although defend
ing their course in the State admin
istration.
The Republicans used State issues
entirely as the weapons of attack on
the Democrats and refused TO be
drawn into any discussion of national
affairs. The Progressive element of
the Republicans was in full control
OF the party machinery, but with the
approval of Col. Roosevelt the split
was postponed until after today's
struggle.
None of the leading State speakers
in the campaign, which ended with
the election, today, announced then
that they were no longer in the Re
publican ranks, but would take the
stump Immediately for Col Roosevelt
for President.
These leaders also claimed great
er part of what honors were won, to-
day. by the Republicans
The Republican organization was
able to bring out a greater vote for
Haines in today's contest compared
with the vote for, Fernald the party
candidate. who was defeated two
years ago.
The Democratic vote for Plais-
ted showed falling off from
that OF 1910. which was par
ticularly marked during the earlier
part of the tabulation of the returns
tonight. Later in the evening, When
Aroostook county reported. the mar

dates decreased 2000 or 5000 votes

Hoorah, all good peoplel We are
going to take you back to the old
frontier days when men fought to
protect their families and loved ones,
the days when you never knew when a
dozen or more Indians were skulking
around your cabin waiting for a
chance to get your scalp.
When you are all comfortably seat
ed in the Colonial Theatre tonight the
Bison Company will appear with hum
dreds of Indians and whole regiments
of cavalry upon the screen and such a
realistic pcture. Why you will be
fairly carried away with the intense
and thrilling scenes and you will
seemingly live in those thrilling days,
so real is the work of these hundreds
of silent players. 1t takes two big
reels to tell this wonderful story, "A
Daughter of the Redskins, and there
is not weak or non-interesting scene
and the ending is beautiful.
Then we will have two good com
edy VAUDEVILLE acts that will keep you
laughing every minute and after they
have done their stunts to amuse you,
we will close with a beautiful love
story of very eminent physician
who lost his eyesight through devo-
tion to duty and finally gives his life
in order to further his wife's happi-
ness. This is story that reaches
the heart and is told in very cap
able manner by the Milano players.
A drama in two reels and one that
will be thoroughly enjoyed by the
most fastidious. A big show-two
two-reel photo plays-two acts and
no change in prices. Come early ana

HAS GOVERNOR RIGHT
TO GUT APPROPRIATION
That is Question Raised in Man
damus Suit Filed Today.
JAMES H. NOVEL;, PLAINTIFF.
Seeks to Recover $50 for Damages to
Boat. Carved From Bill bv
Executive.

In suit for mandamus filed in the
Circuit Court today question is raised
as to the validity of the action of
Governor Goldsborough in cutting
down appropriations embodied in acts
passed by the Legislature
The outcome of the suit VIII be Of
Statewide Importance, since the Gov
ernor changed the appropriations
made to various institutions of the
State. The suit in question is that
Of James H Nowell,a re sident of the
West River section of Anne Arundel
county, who seeks to recover $50, the
balance alleged to be due him for
damages sustained by the sloor Maria,
guard boat in Herring Bay.
This vessel was damaged by ice
while on duty. state Comptroller
Harrington will be named as defen-
don't in the proceedings. Mr.. James
w. Owens, of this city, is Mr.. Now
ellis attorney. The petition sets out
that under Chapter $50 of the Acts of
the Legislature of 1925 an appropria-
tion of SITS was made to cover the
damages sustained by Mr.. Nowell's
vessel and that the Governor cut this
amount to $125.
II is alleged that the Governor
therefore acted contrary to the limi-
tations and powers conferred by Sec
tion IL of Article of the Constitu-
tion, on the ground that the Execu-
tive cannot divide an appropriation,
but he only has power to disapprove
any appropriations that may be made
in separate items. As there was only
one item in this bill il is contended
tae Governor could not approve any
part of it withdot approving it all.
The section of the Constitution un-
der which this contention is based
reads as follows:
''The Governor shall have power
10 disapprove of any item or items of
any bill is making appropriations of
money embracing distinct items, and
the part or parts of the bill approved
shall be the law, and the items or
items of appropriations disapprovsd
shall be void unless repassed according
to the rules or limitations prescribed
for the passage of other bills over the
Executive veto.

His degradation is most complete
when he has become hopelessly in
different. It is not among those VINO
blush for their shame. and are tns
victims of remorse that manhood or
womanhood is in ruin. These COM
mon observations explain the uiti-
mate penalty Of sin as set forth IN the
Bible. The wages of sin is death
the second de ath. Physical death is
not the separation of soul and body,
as IL is so often expressed. 1t is the
separation of the soul from the body
that causes death. Not otherwise is
il in regard to spiritual death.
The Immediate cause of spiritual
death is the souls separation from
God. What is the death Of the bodyT
The stagnation of the bodily organs
What is spiritual death? II is the
stagnatioE, the collapse of the power
of the soul; the soul becoming past
feeling and past moral endeavor. We
grow into our surroundings so COM
pletely that we are unhappy every
where else, like the wretched prisoner
of the Bastille who, when released
from the dungeon where he had dwelt
for wears, begged to he restored to
his confinement. The larger life OF
liberty only filed with anxiety and
discomfort his mind, which had shrunk
to tAe proportions of his tiny cell.
eternal death can only mean the
hopeless wreck of the soul, in which
reason, sensibility and conscience go
down together in awful crash. 1t Is
moral annihilation. 1t is not eeasing
to exist, nor endless physical torment,
nor conscious eternal shame and re-
morse. The soul is dead-hopelessly
dead. Can anything be sadder? We
ali may we'll pray to be preserved
from such a state. can do no better
than to close with the words of the
late Dean Afford: There is election
to life; but there is no reprobation
to death. A book of life, but no book
of death; no hell for men, because
the blood of Jesus hath purchased life
for all, but they who will serve the
devil must share with him in the
end. !"
