a Republican Sweep
Both city and county yesterday
gave overwhelmingly Republican ma
jorities. Not a single Democratic
candidate was elected for any ollce
of Importance and very few FOR any
office whatsoever. This is attrlput-
able to several reasons, first, the
normally strong Republican sentl-
ment in both Harrisburg and the
county outside the city; secondly, the
character of the Republican candi-
dates and finally, the ghameful man
ner in which the local Democratic
bosses forsook the candidates Of that
party The usual barrel was MISS
ing and there was much resentment
to-day among Democratic ward
workers and those who had been
sacrificed to make a Republican
holiday over the lack of interest dis
played by those who got control of
the machine in other years and who
are now so deeply interested in state
and national politics where the lime
light is not so expensive this year.
Yesterdays behavior on the part of
these self-constituted leaders viii
likely cost the Democratic party in
Dauphin county hundreds of votes in
the gubernatorial contest next year.
Republican housekeeping in Dau-
phin county has been so efficient in
recent years and the caliber of Re-
publican candidates so generally high
that the men backed by the local
organization this year found the
ground very we'll prepared for them
and the voters we'll satisfied with
conditions. For this reason II was
unnecessary to arouse sentiment by
meetings throughout the county, in
almost all districts the workers and
voters alike expressing themselves as

UNCLE SAM HAS
100000 MEN
READY FOR WAR
Army Already Greater in
Number Than That of
Civil War

Washington, Nov. 7.-Oficial fig
ures obtained from Army and Navy
chiefs show that the United States
to-day has more than 2,OOO,OOO men
under arms in its lighting branches.
Heavy 'enlistments to the Army,
Navy and Marine Corps during the
last few days have increased the to-
tai over the 10000 600 mark.
The second draft call, which. may
come before the new year is ushered
in. will increase the total to 2,5OO,OOO,
exclusive of the thousands enliSunS
in the next two months.
These figures were given out as an
answer to the sneering remarks OF
German officials and press of Uncle
Sans ''inconsequental army.
BY way OF emphasis in showing
how we'll officials regard the success
of the nation in raising this army In
the six months since war was declar-
ed, it is pointed out that all but 6St,-
OOO of this total or the first draft
icontingent, approximately 100000,
represent voluntary enlistments.

United States cannot take part in the
war any greater than that Rumania
has taken.

Vote in City of Boston

Boston, Nov. THE small Demo-
cratic vote in Boston was one of the
most marked features of the election
in this state yesterday, when Gov
ernor Samuel w. Mccall was chosen
for a third term. All other Repub-
lican state officers were reelected
and the Republicans made net gain
of six on Joint ballot of the Legis-

over Frederick w. Mansfield, Demo-
crat, was 60 the total vote being:
Mccall, 226,404; Mansfield, 1885,
S45.
Mansfield's plurality of S,797 in
this city, was the smallest given a
Democratic gubernatorial candidate
in seventeen years. Last year he car
ried the city by 1865 and lost the
state by ,240.
Lieutenant Governor Calvin Cool
idge, although polling a slightly
smaller vote than the Governor, was

Cattle a War Necessity
Vrooman Shows How Nation
and Farmers Nav Benefit

WASHINGTON, Sept. 12.-"Livestock
on every farm in the United States is
henceforth a military necessity said
Carl Vrooman, Assistant Secretary of
Agriculture, to-day.
1.-THE keeping of more livestock was
highly desirable before the war; con-
tinued Mr.. Vrooman, because it would
have added to both the prosperity OF
the individual farmer and the wealth
Of the nation. Now. it is national
necessity-frst, because of the terrible
dearth Of meat animals, not only in
this country, but throughout the world;
second, because no further waste OF
feeds must be permitted and the only
thing that can prevent waste on the
farm is more livestock"
Enough cattle on every farm TO take
up all the waste pasturage and the
waste forage from the harvested crops,
enough sheep on every farm to eat the
weeds and rough grasses that the cattle
will not eat, enough hogs to consume
the kitchen slops, the surplus butter
milk or skim milk, the defective grain,
and to clean up after the cattle-that
is the way, as Mr.. Vrooman sees it, for
every farmer TO be prosperous and for
the nation and the nations allies to be
well fed.
