WINCHESTER CONFIDENT
OF WILLIAMS ELECTION
Democratic Majority on Registration
Insures Election of Candidate And
His Colleagues-City VIII be 25,-
900 or More Democratic on Regis
tratiOn Returns.

Baltimore, April 10.-The regis
tration on Monday resulted in a de-
cided increase in the enrolment OF
voters, greatly to the advantage of
the Democrats. AS the list now
stands, the Democratic party has a
majority in afiliation over the Re
publicar1s of more than twenty-five
thousand, and, if the same ratio OBJ
tains in the number enrolled next
Monday (Which will be the last day.
the books will show more than thirty
thousand majority for the Democrats
in Baltimore city, including the new
ly annexed section. With such a
majority there can be no possible
doubt as to the result Of the elec-
!tion of Mayor in May, and it may be
put down as reasonably certain that
|Mr. Williams will succeed Mayor
Preston next winter in the City Hall.
There are apparently no real sores
left over us as result Of the pri-
maries last week. The leaders OF
all factions did not hesitate an in
slant, but all came out for the ticket
without delay. Mr.. John J. Mahon,
who has been the recognized leader
of the old organization ever since
the death of Mr.. I. Freeman Ras1n,
twelve years ago, at once gathered
the factions together and set them
all to work without delay. Without
any hitch whatever, those who had
been contesting on different sides
few days before, got in line, and all
signs of the strenuous primary have
disappeared. Mayor Preston, him
self, took his place in the line, and
whatever may have been his dlsap-
pointments, he has proved himself to
be a good loser, and is doing all IN
his power to aid in the election OF
his successful competitor. The Ward
leaders, the Precinct leaders, the

even Aunt Prue could not resist it, aud
soon she was smiling and jigging with
Jonathan Cash, who couldn't help grin

Prue smiled she looked almost as lovely
as Penelope, though much older. And
when Jonathan grinned he lost his ugly
frown and became almost as handsome

Jonathan looked at Aunt Prue's

So it was arranged. They motored to

Jonathan married Aunt Prue. Then the
