Big Price For Tobacco.

Tobacco growers of Southern Mary
land may well feel jubilant at the
prospect of adding materially to their
bank accounts. Tobacco grown in that
section, which is now coming to the
market, has sold at the record price of
30 cents a pound. At least this is the
record in the memory of many of the
commission firms which handle the
crop for the farmers and of the buyers
who have been absorbing this crop
in Baltimore for the past generation
or more.
This price is cents pound higher
than was paid for the same quality of
tobacco last year, the extreme limit
OF last years crop being 80 cents a
pound. But even at that, the farmers
who obtained that price looked upon
it as something abnormal.

ALL IN FIGHT FOR LIBERTY
Every Man, Woman and Child in the
United States is Charged With
a Sacred Duty.

A war machine, today, is America.
Travelling the road Of Success, it is
bound for Victory.
With the direction of the machine
we have most of us, little to do. We
must trust the man at the wheel of
State to drive forward with speed and
care.
But with the condition of the ma
chine itself we are implicitly con-
cerned. For its effective operation we
are every one of us responsible.
Every American is, in fact, an essen
tiaI part of the mechanism which is
to carry the world forward to a new
era of liberty.
But the motor, alas, is not yet
stunned up" 1t rattles badly. Loose
and imperfectly assembled, it knocks
and overheats.
Why? Because so many of us are
still careless and confident, Indifferent
to our duty as citizens. In one week,
for instance, there were reported 537
violators of the lighting regulations in
New York. There still are prOflteers,
for their own use, still persons who
repeat scandalous rumors, lettering
the Cause. Tightwads and slackers
still abound. No wonder our war ma
chine is still Intellectual. It needs the
regulation of a national conscience.
How then shall we tighten up the
screws? This way: Every citizen
must see TO it that his part is well
done. We must stop all leaks-econo-
nlze in light, coal. wheat, beef and
SUGAR. We must get more mileage,
give up pleasure and progt, knit work,
inspire others, insist that all obey the
law, and watch out for spies. The
motor must have fUel-sHbscribe to
the Liberty loan. L,bricate the ma
chinery with contributions to the Red
Cross!
There is, in short, only one thing
upon which we must all concentrate
SUGGEST And Success win not come
until every man, woman and child
realizes his own vital responsibility in
the prosecution of this war as great
crusade for universal democracy.
Are you doing everything in your
power 90 help win the war?-helping

had thronged the places whore returns
were being received had gone home be.
fore the final count was made up. One
Of the surprises Of the election was the
heavy Republican vote given to the
candidates in the town Of Wheatland.
This town usually reliably Democratic,
gave its vote this year to majority Of
the Republican candidates for county
offices.
Peter M. Anderson of Somers, easil7
defeated Henry j. Hastings for the Of
fee Of the Assembly and George L.
Suck Of Racine was elected state sen
ator over Robert NJ. Hurley by ma
iority which will be above the thous-

was given very large vote in Keno
sha county and he had a small majority
over Hurley in Racine county.
The new officers will take taeir places
in the county building the first Of next
January, but there will be few changes
as in most cases the election was a
reelection.
The complete returns Of the vote for
the various candidates for county Of

A splendid new county center should
be the monument to the war in Ken

that this is just exactly what they are
going to do.
Don t let this splendid gift to Ken

part in paying the expense Of the war
and these men and women should have
this as benefit Of war.

communication to every base port. Our
service is effecting a saving to the
government considerably in excess of
100000 a day. We are saving ma
terial imperatively needed at the front,
material that no expenditure of money
can Immediately replace. We are di-
rectly saving ocean tonnage which is

ELECTION NEWS
COMES SLOWLY
Usual Right of Way Given Re-
suits Found to Be I'M
possible.
WARS FIRST CALL ON WIRES
Shortage of Operators Also Response.
BILE for Delay Which Is Unavoid-
abIe-Early Returns From Three
Congressional Districts.

Election returns had no right of way
over the telegraph lines of the coun-
try last night.
The usual bulletin service of the two
telegraph companies, which has been
a feature of election returns for years,
was abandoned this year by reason OF
wartime congestion and shortage of
operators.
AS result the actual outcome of
the struggle for state officers and for
the control of congress, which is being
watched with eager and intense inter-
est at the White House, as well as in
the other capitals Of the world, is still
in doubt.
1t is possible that the delay iii re-
turns and uncertainty in the final re-
suit may equal that Of the presidential
election of two years ago, when at
least forty-eight hours elapsed before
definite data was obtainable.
The action of the telegraph compa-
MES in dispensing with the customary
bulletin service was taken at their
own initiative, they announce, because
of lack of facilities, due entirely to
prevailing conditions. The post office
department says government authori-
ties did not specifically raise the cues
ton and the course of the companies
undoubtedly was dictated by necessi-
ties Of the situation.
Early returns give the following re-
suits: For congress, Seventh district,
John J. Esch (Rep.); Tenth, James A.
Frear (Rep.); Eleventh, Adolphus P.
Nelson (Rep) elected.
Figures on the state ticket were so
inadequate that it was impossible to
tell results. The managers of both
parties expressed confidence
