POLITICAL INCIDENT
OF ALEXANDRIA.

i That too much confidence IS
often manifested by parties in power
when their supporters rearlain away
ircm polls on election days IS &C.
casionally allu5cd to. About three
fourths of the demoGratic voters of
the city neglected to avail themselves
of the privilege of casting their bal
lots on Tuesday simply because there,
was no opposition to the democratic
candidates nominated a short time
ago at primary election.
- While at the present day there r.
no Far of sudden surprises from.
political enemies, .as all candidates are
compelled to announce their purpose
to enter the field some time before
election days, the action of Gemo-
Gratis Tuesday brings to mind an in
tercsting and laughable chapter II.
the political history of Alexandria by
which over-confidence caused The de-
feat of the dominant party.
Far back in our history the wings
formed majority of the voters, ana
the Democrats invariably came put
second best in all political conflicts.
While in reality the latter were fol-
lowers of the doctrines OF Thomas
Jefferson, there were known in Alex
andI3rfa as locofocos, the nome of a
brand Of matches used at that tlias.
The name implied that they were
red hot.
In those days the election for
municipal officers took place on the
first Monday in March, ard the first
Monday in March, 1S49, fell upon the
day Zachary Taylor was inaugurated
President of the United States.
The wings had nominated joseph
caches for the Mayoralty. and he
surposdl he had walkove", as did
also his friends. While the latter
were basking in this assurance the
locofocos were at work on a gum
shoe crusade. They knew that many
whies were benttup going to WASH
ington that day for the purpose OF
witnessing tbs induction into Office
of the new President.
There were four wings in the field
and it was not supposed the demo
crats would have a candidate.
But the democrats had determine
to spring candidate upon their en-
cmies at time when the wing force
was depleted; so they prevailed W
on Isaac Buckingham. well-knowl
tohacconist of this city who conducted
Il factory at the northwest corner o
Prince ard Union streets, to bccom
their candidate.
Their purpose was kept quiet unit
early in the afternoon of election da
when the entire strength of the part
was mustered in the support of Buci
inghairi. In those lsays there was,
course mo telephone service betwee
this city and Washington, nor WI
there railroad, and the pniy mea1
of communication between the tV
cities was by slow ferry boat know
as the Joe johnson, which CONSUME
much time in making trip. She w

While many of the rank and +

DANGER AFTER GRIPPE
Lies in Poor Blood, Cough and
Worn-Out Condition.

Grippe, pleurisy, pneumonia are
greatly to be feared at this season.
To prevent grippe from being fol-
lowed by either pleurisy or pneumo-
mia, it is important to drive the last
traces of it out Of the system.
Our advice is to take Vinol. our
delicious cod liver and iron prepare
ton without oil, and get your
strength and vitality back quickly.
w. w. Lake OF Aberdeen, Miss,
says: Grippe left me weak. rundown
and with severe cough from which
suffered for a long time. tried
different remedies, but nothing SEEM
ed to do me any good until l took
vinol from which l received great
benefit. My cough is almost entirely
gone and am strong and well again"
Try Vinol with the certainty that
II 1t does not benefit you we will give

FIGHTING DISEASE.

catching its breath on New
Years day, in anticipation of the
biggest years work it has ever
undertaken. The summary of the
last twelve months work, pre-
pared in the headquarters of the
public health service at Washing
ton, contains a record of heroic
fights against disease, concerted
opposition to the invasion Of for
eign maladies, and excursions in
to new fields of medical explor-
alton, which has had no equal in
the history of the Federal
health organization.
Trained experts working under
the directions of Surgeon General
Rupert Blue and Assistant Sur
geon General Rucker have during
the last year covered every nook
and corner of the country, rout-
ing out unknown diseases, clean
ing up infested places, teaching
communities and individuals how
to guard against disease and pro
tecting the American public
against disease immigrants, tin
Grant Carriers" of disease, un-
healthful surroundings, infected
rats and polluted drinking water.
From the mountains of Ken
lucky, where two field hospitals
and dispensories are teaching the
people how to combat
pellagra, to the water fronts of
San Francisco and Seattle, where
Federal experts are helping State
in their fight to pre-
vent the carrying of plague
germs by rats and squirrels, the
public health service has pushed
it's activities into many unusual
fields and has co-operated with
State and municipal officials to
improve sanitary conditions and
lessen public danger.
Much of the research work for
the health service is done in the
hygienic laboratory in Washing
ton. In the search for the means
by which infantile paralysis is
transmitted the experts there
succeeded during the last year in
carrying germs from one monkey
% another by the bite of stable |
ly. But where this succeeded
once, it failed on all otner at
empts, and the public health |
service is still working on the
problem of coping with this dis
,ase.
Pollution of rivers and the at
endant dangers to communities /
lose to them, is under examina-
ion now in the valleys of the
Ohio and Potomac. A
comprehensive investigation or
'ellagra is being directed from
he Marine Hospital at Savan-
lah, Ga, and malaria is being
losely studied at the Mobile,
Ma, hospital. to determine def
itely the means by which if is
and the methods best
dopted to its suppression.
Practically every phase Of SAM
alton is being studied and taught
y the public health service Of
Gals, as fast as funds permit.
During the last year each expert
{ the service, no matter on what
York he might be detailed, has
cen acting as travelling inspec-
Dr. of railway trains and vessels,
nd reporting any violations of
ne interstate regulations gov
rning drinking cups, pure water,
oller towels and the like.

case first, his being the principal case.
