but did empower the Legislature TO
provide suitable enactment for voting
by qualined voters of the State Of
Maryland who are absent at the time
of any election from the ward or
election district in which they are
entitled to vote, and for the manner
in which and the time and place at
which such absent voters may vote,
and for the canvass and return OF
heir votes"
Had this been adopted by the legis-
laturs, It would have been submitted
to the voters Of the State for their
acceptance or rejection at tho coming
general election.
At the time the question was dis
used at Annapolis a bill carrying
out the provisions of the proposed
constitutional amendment was In tho
hands of the sponsors of tho move

by organized labor. This proposed
bill provided that qualified regis

y happened to be at the time. and the
ballot returned. not by the voter. but
by the official in whose presence II
was marked.
The labor element was much in
tcrested in the proposition, primarily
because many of their number were
away from their voting places cleo
tion day. 1t said the franchise NOR
tality" Is particularly heavy among
railroad men-engineers and other
trainmen, who are not infrenquently

possible to be home on election day.

EVERYTHING UNANIMOUS

We'll, boys, the fight is about over
and nothing is left to be done except
the shouting. We get the news from
Spartanburg. Hon. John Gary
Evans brings it back from out West.
He is the same fellow they once call
ed "jaggery," but that was before ne
got on our side or we go: on his.
Well, anyway, the ex-governor has
been out West and has Travelled
around "a right smart as they say
in Spartanburg, and he knows what
he is talking about, so THEY say.
The governor is of the opinion
that Candidate Cox is the real demo-
crat. To be true the South Carolina
delegation kept voting for Grown
Prince McAdoo all the while, which
is causing some of the brethren
around Columbia some uneaslness
lust now, we mean some of those VINO
would like consideration when Cox IS
elected. but nevertheless, Mr.. Evans
says of the candidate and his running
mate:
Governor Cox is great man. ne
&c true blue democrat, and he has
the quality of inspiring confidence
.nd enthusiasm. Mr.. Roosevelt, too,
has added greatly to the strength OF
the ticket"
OF the result Mr.. Evans has the
following tc say:
Il travelled thru practically all the
Western States after the convention
and talked to ali sorts Of people, ana
everybody is confident that Cox ana
Roosevelt will be elected Ohio is con-
ceded to US, and we have every ao-
vantage in New York, Illinois ana
other large States. The far West Is
solid for us ard we are going to elect
q democratic president and uesno-
cratic congress. Even the big bank
ers. who have been republican mere
tofore, are tired of republican re-
action and incompetency and Will
vote the democratic ticket this year.
They have confidence in our 1leket
ani in our platform, and tie masses
Of the people are with US. We are 60
ing to win" vs.
Ohio in the opinion of Mr.. Evans
is mot to hunt" 1t is already II
hand and ready for delivery. Con-
corning that state, ne says:
"In fact it is conceded by every
body that Governor Cox viii carry
Ohio. Money is freely offered at any
sort of odds on that result and there
are no takers"
Now all of this sounds pretty good
on that mechanism of the ear which
causes US to hear. But we would ad-.
wise those whose duty it now is Ito
come to the aid of the party not to
offer to bet the dollar on Ohio which
belongs to chairman of the dollar
democracy, because there will be
some fellow with little enough sense
but plenty of cents, to- cover It.
And as for the result foretold by
Chairman Evans that also sounds
pretty good to all the boys. There is
nothing to be added to the inspiring
message which he sends out from
Spartanburg unless it is to say that
we believe Cox will also carry Long
Cane, in Abbeville County, and Buck
Level, in Greenwood County, S. C.
But we would remind ali over
hopeful democrats that elections are
very uncertain. 1t will no; do to
claim the election until the returns
come in from Rock Springs and
"Keewee." We have known these
boxes to change the result the ono
one way; and then the other, the
other way.

Orleans lady has named "baby
grand" on account of the size of her
legs. The New Orleans lady ac-
cused the young proprietor o. hug
ging" his dancing partner and his re-
ply was that he is to be married in
October and that he was behind in
such work and had to make time
while he could. He is a handsome
fellow and if any girls around Abb
beville are coming to Waynesville
they should come before October.
Mr.. Alexander, of Sparianburg,
has had more fun at the dances than
any of the other men. He is fine
looking, good dancer, a married
man and safe from the attacks of
the summer girl, so he canced the
time away after phoning home to ASK
his wife if he could stay another day.
He is the father-in-law of Burley
Fretwell and of course, Abbeville
people are interested in him. !
1t is always possible to meet peo-
nle YOU know or who know some of
your friends. A lady from Winder,
Ga, knows Mrs. Matte Purdy Snipes
and has much to say that is pleasant
about her. A man from High Point,
N. C. asked me one day if we didn't
have a man named Kerr, in our town.
I admitted it at once being as he
lives on Greenville street and it,
.eems that the High Point man Is
t!e man Abbeville is looking for to
tell US all about how to build and
run a knitting mill. 1t Is possible that
...e may come to Abbeville. and, if so,
our people will find Mr.. and Mrs.
Adams most charming people and
the two little girls lovely. They were
here fer several days travelling in a
beautiful car with a digniied leath-
el-leggined driver to d. the hard
work !
Young Mr.. Baldwin from New
Orleans has been in Prof. Robert Nc
Cav Perrin's school and the family
speak most highly of ou- !-poeville
man.
This would not be genuine sum- !
mer hotel if there were not some
thing to gossip about anc the erich
lady the English officer" and the
French maid" furnish a never end
ing source of talk. The erich lady"
is from Pittsburg and is here for the
summer, with a suite OF rooms, six
year old boy, the English officer, two
maids and fifteen TRUNKS. The officer
has been severely wounded and
walks with difficulty, though he rides
well and drives a high power racer
with ease. Son Bill says ne KNOWS the
lady is very rich for he "saw her
feeding chocolate bon bOnS to a dog"
There is a handsome woman here
from Georgia who asked me to go
for a walk with her saying she had
that day paid her bill anc mad eaten
100 much lunch in an enceavor to
get even with the hotel.
A couple came yesterday who reg
istered as Spa McCeun, Ma McCeun
and Miss Betty McCeun."
Son Bill has found many pleasant
whose first names he
knows. He can tell all the news 'of
