From 1.-THE Great Adventure.

IT know that. In these days there
are many men who think that nation
al Boundaries are broken down, who
think that one part of the world is the
same as any other part Of the world.
There seems to some vague and
shadowy banner somewhere high in
the sky upon which is written the
word internationalism,' and to some
this flag seems white and to others
going to supplant all the other flags
red, and they believe that this flag is
of the world. do not believe it. This
was not Lincoln's faith, this was not
Lincoln's practice. My friends. some
how we need flag. whose folds We
can touch, and our boys, when they go
over the top. need a flag whose rustic
above them they can hear and flag
which, If death shall come. can fold
them in its embraced flag of their
country and not this international
banner floating SO high"

E CARRIES
STATE BY 1000

Complete unofficial returns from all counties
Of the State and Baltimore City indicate the
election Of Albert c. Richie as Governor Of
Maryland by about 1000 majority. He car
RED Baltimore City by 1900 after his oppo-
nent, Harry w. Nice, had exhausted every
fake argument and exploited every conceivable
scheme to effect his defeat The smalness Of
the majority was largely due TO the false I'M
preston created in the minds Of many voters
that the national government deserved some re-
buke for reputed extravaganza In the conduct OF
the war and that by the same distorted line Of
reasoning, the rebuke could be administered by
voting for Mr.. Nice who, during the war was
assistant State Attorney for Baltimore city.
E. Brooke Lee, Democratic candidate for
Comptroller, is elected also, but late advice from
Baltimore is to the effect that there is still some
doubt about the Attorney General and the
Clerk Of the Court Of Appeals, but Democratic
State headquarters is claiming their election.
Returns from all the counties show the House
of Delegates to be Democratic by ! 8 and the
Senate Democratic by 3.

BLOODY ATTEMPT AT

DOUBLE MURDER
A daring and bloody attempt at dou-
bic murder was committed on nn oys-
ter boat lying on Morgantown, on the
Potomac river, Charles county, be-
tween and s O'Clock Wednesday
morning last and, as IS result Captain
Wesley Die and his l4-year old son,
Rodney Die, lay between life and
death Ia Washington hospital. where
they were hurredly taken by a crew OF
submarine chaser which first detect
ed the crime. and Robert Kerney, col
orrd, charged with the deed. is 10 La
Plata Jail, where he viii remain Till
given a preliminary on Nov 10, lay
Judge II G Robertson
a bloody hatchet, now In the pos
session OF the Justice, tells the iaic of
the grueSome manner In which The
lives OF the unfortunates were n"ariS
hacked out.
That robbery was the motive for IN"
crime is evident from the fast that
$1,000 OF Captain Dies money was
found on Kerney when searched How
ever, Kernry, while admitting the
money beIagged 20 The captain aud
that he - present Mbrn ,he crine
was coSgn1tted, denies that be- IS ihn
guilty party, saying that THREE IN
known white men cumnlitlcd the deed
aud that he vas forced back In the
cabin when they Gid it, Ho afterwards
got the money and tiled 10 make his
escape.
Kerney's apprehension, Ia n great
measure, is due 10 the very clever work
and stragety OF Mr.. Guy Barber, a
driver for the Semmes Motor Line
from Rock Point 10 Washington who,
having heard of the affair and asked
To keep a lookout for the culprit, over
took a suspicious looking colored man
on his up-trip from Rock Point We'd
nesday afternoon. He stopped his bus
and asked the man IL he wanted to
ride. The negro replied that he did,
at tho same time inquiring II he could
ride all the way to Washington, and
the price. Mr.. Barber furnished the
desired information, and to be on the
safe side, invited his new passenger TO
occupy the front seat OF the bus with
him. When La Plata was reached
Kerney's intended Washington trip
was substituted by spending night
in the county jail.
1t will be recalled that about 2 years
ago similar crime was committed In
st. Mary's County, of CASHIERS
wharf, on the Patuxent river, when a
Captain Messick, OF Benedict, was kill
ed with Ratchet and his body thrown
