TIE ELECTION RETURNS

Tuesdays election as whole, was a
Republican victory. True the Demo-
Gratis carried the State of Maryland,
but the solid Maryland Congressional
delegation was broken by the election
of Sidney E. Mudd. Mr.. Lewis is re-
elected by decidedly reduced majority.
Two years ago he carried the district by
a majority of 6.127. Last Tuesday he
won out by 727 majority, loss of 5.40O
votes. Certainly not to Mr. Lewis
credit. He won out only through his
personal popularity. He lost his own
county by majority of l07.
In 1912 Lewis carried Garrett county
by a majority of 105. Last Tuesday
Senator Zihlman carried the county by
542 majority. Carrington's majority
over Smith was 942. Lewis run ahead
of Smith by $50 votes.
In the elections throughout the coun-
try the Republicans were the victors.
There were fifteen Republican Cover
nors elected and Democratic COVER
nors. The Republicans reduced the
Democratic majority in the House from
1913 to about %.
The election last Tuesday was a re-
buke, stern and swift, sure and earnest
against the failure of the Democrats to
make good their pledges of prosperity.

SENATE EMPLOYE HONORE0.
Democrats Give watch to 7. w.
Keller, Assistant DOOrkeeper.

On October 18th, at Washington, a
pleasant surprise was sprung upon
Mr.. T. W. Keller, assistant doorkeeper
in the United States Senate, when that
gentleman was presented with a watch
by the Democratic Senators. Mr..
Keller is brother of Mrs Edward E.
Sollars of near Oakland. In giving an
account of the affair the Baltimore
American of the following day, said:
While the Senate was in recess Sat
urday, and while every Democratic
senator remained IN anticipation of the
pleasant episode that had been planned,
Senator Kern, the Democratic leader,
had Mr. Thomas W. Keller, of West
Virginia, the assistant doorkeeper of the
Senate, summoned to the Senate
chamber. When Mr.. Keller entered
Senator Kern raped on his desk and
called the senators to order, and then
the Democratic leader presented Mr..
Keller with a handsomely engraved
watch, which he informed the venerable
assistant doorkeeper was presented to
him by the Democratic members of the
Senate as recognition of their friend
ship for him and of their appreciation
of his 80 years of faithful and honorable
service with that body.
Mr. Keller was unable to respond to
the suggestion of some of these senators
that he make a speech. He merely
bowed and told them how much he felt
honored by the presentation of the
watch. On the inside of the watch is
engraved the following:
From the Democratic Senators of the
Sixty-third Congress to
Thomas w. Keller, Esq,
Assistant Doorkeeper,
In Appreciation of His Faithful
Services"
Tom Keller, as he is known to every
one in the Capitol, came to Washing
ton when Henry Gassaway Davis was
elected to the Senate from West Vir-
gina. He has been in the service of
the Senate ever since under Democratic,
as well as under Republican control.
Of the men who were senators when he
first came here only Senator Davis, of
West Virginia Senator Cockrell, of
Missouri; Senator Blair, of New Hamp-
shire, and Senator Edmunds. of Yer
mont. are now living, but none of them
are still IN the Senate 1t was the first
time that an employee of that body has
been honored on the floor OF the Senate
chamber

WE were very much pleased over the
very many kind words received last
week for the excellent paper we IS
sued" The Republican State Central
Committee for Garrett county asked
for 1000 copies for general circulation.
Although we printed extra copies, the
edition was soon exhausted. We are
doing our best to publish an interesting
paper and the new subscriptions coming
in is proof that we are succeeding. The
Republican is going on to perfection.
The paper speaks for itself. Thanks
for the kind words.

ACTION unprecedented In the history
of the Protestant Episcopal church of
Maryland was taken yesterday after
noon. when the annual diocesan con-
vention, in its closing session at Christ
Church Baltimore, placed itself on re-
cord an sympathizing with the nation
wide prohibition movement, by adupt-
ing the following resolution:
Resolved. That this convention is
heartily in favor of the principle under
lying the proposed amendment to the
national Constitution, whereby the
question of national prohibition shall be
submitted to the several States for
their ratification or rejection, and that
we call upon the members of our COM
munlon to make this question a subject
of special thought and prayer"

SENATOR ZlHlMRN LOSES OUT.

Senator Zihlman made Clean square
and honorable campaign, backed by a
successful record in the Senate of
Maryland for doing things. He was a
mixer among his fellowman; the kind
of man who gets hold of the people in
the right way; his pleasant manner, his
genial spirit and companionship all
combined to make him popular among
mankind
His opponent was the strongest man
the Democrats could have put up
against Senator Zihlman. He too was a
popular man among the common people.
Mr.. Zihlman entered the campaign with
Lewis's majority of 6,127 of 1912 to
overcome. He made a strong per-
severing fight and lost out only by a
vote of 757; his opponent having suf-
fered loss of 5. 400 votes. Surely this
indicates Mr.. Zlhlman's popularity and
Mr.. Lewis decline in the political life.
Garrett county did itself proud and
proved itself the banner Republican
county of the Sixth Congressional Dis
trict. Had the other Republican coun-
ties of the district been as loyal as
Garrett county Mr.. Zhlman would
have been elected.
The Republican congratulates him
upon the magnificent fight he made.
Although defeated he went down in
honor and with his colors flying.

WHO is who" in Mexico is occupying
much attention in that Republic. The
prospective peace of yesterday is lost
sight of in the acute situation of today.
There is no telling what a day may
develop. 1t might be we'll to divide the
Republic into three separate Republics
and allot one to Carraza, one to Villa
and one to Zapata, and bind each of
them over to keep the peace for at
least five years, under penalty of being
exiled or hung, for violating the pledge.

his armies to victory. He is the man
who secured to Garrett county the
priceless boon of local option.
Honor to whom honor is due. The
victory of last Tuesday was possible be-
cause of Senator Speicher's faithful
ness to his prediction promises. The
people of the county, irrespective of
politics will honor the Senator tor his
good work, and his name and deed will
live forever in the hearts OF his country
men.
