Zihlman's Good Work.

Friends of Senator Frederick N.
Zihlman and other Republican leaders
are jubilant over the registration re-
turns in Allegany county. which give a
plurality of over 2, 400 for the G. o. P.
over the Democrats. The Republican
rank and file throughout the county
worked like heroes and success crown
ed their efforts.
Another gratifying feature is the
almost complete disintegration of the
Progressive vote in this county. Only
% voters registered as Progresslves in
the city of Cumberland and the num-
Der throughout the county totaled So.
Allegany county is one of the largest
industrial centers of the state, and
irrespective of party. the voters have
felt keenly the business depression
which has thrown hundreds of men of
the section out of work and which has
resulted in the cutting down of the
salaries of thousands of others.
