SURPRISING NEW YORK RESULTS

Albany, N. Y.-New York state turn
ed itself upside down politically by
giving Senator Harding more than
100000, plurality for President and
electing Nathan L. Miller governor by
$4,000.
Governor Smith performed the mod
ern miracle in politics by reversing
more than 100000 votes in one state.
The Republican sweep for Harding Is
the greatest victory ever recordo for
@ nominee in, this or any other state.
Senator James w. Wadsworth goes
back to Washington with a plurality
of close to 100000. The women did not
carry their war against him to the
polls.
The state Legislature is strongly Re-
publican. Judge Miller goes into the
executive Office with the undivided sup
port of both houses.
Senator Harding carried every coun-
ty upstate and every city except Os-
wego, which gave Cox a plurality of
319.
Senator Harding carried every as
sembly district in Greater New York
with one exception-the First Assem-
bly, District, which is Governor Smiths
home district. This gave Cox plu-
raIity of about 400 votes.s
Manhattan gave a Republican presi-
dental plurality Of about 10000; the
Bronx. $4,000; Brooklyn, 177,O00 ;
Queens, 81, ZOO, and Richmond. 1000.
But on the state ticket it was quite
a different story. The same hour that
found Harding victorious by 443, 900 In
the normally Democratic city of New
York showed Alfred e. Smith, Demo
crat. leading Judge Nathan Miller. his
Republican opponent for the governor
ship, by 325,000 plurality.

La Plata-The entire tobacco crop

La Plata-The entire tobacco crop
grown in this county has been gath,
cred this season before frost touched
any of it. Many growers say this is
the first year they have any knowI
edge of this being done. The crop
grown this year is considered the
largest and best that has been raised
in this county for many years. A
few weeks before the cutting season
started many farmers were much dis
couraged over the prospects of the
crop. Many thought it would be q
snort and inferior crop. The continued
rains had worked against the tobacco
Much lowland tobacco was thought tc
be checked beyond recovery and
some was drowned. Ideal growing
weather came at the proper time, how
ever, and resulted in one of the best
crops ever grown in the county

More Oysters In Rivers OF State.

More Oysters In Rivers OF State.
Annapolis
Following an inspection of the state
oyster bars by R. ". Truitt the latter
submitted his report to aHrrison w.
Vickers, chairman Of the Conservation
Commission AS the result of visits
made to the great centers of produc-
tion, the inspector finds that in every
river in the state there are indications
of yield better than that of the
average for the past few years.
Oysters are of better size and more
abundant, which may be attributed
in measure to the exceptionally
bad weather conditions of the season
previous, which prohibited intensive
working during the long period of the
greatest demand and because of the.
rest obtained by the beds during tho
period of the war when labor was di-
verted to other fields
In the Chesapeake Bay the condi-
tions are not so good, save for certain
beds in the region of Herring Bay,
where a normal production will be
realized. The State Reserve Area on
which seed oysters were planted by
the Conservation Commission are
again practically depleted. The pri-
vate beds along the shores of Anne
Arundel county have entirely disap-
peared. There are few oysters in Po-
comoke Sound and the southern end
of Tangier.
Conditions during the spawning
season were exceptionally good
throughout the tributaries of the
Chesapeake, there being general

Bureau Of Child Welfare.

Featured in maze of subjects dis,
cussed by the Federation of Women's
Clubs in semi-annua1 session at the
University of Maryland, at College
Park, was the appeal by DR.. William
Welsh for State Bureau of Child
Welfare.
A few of the other subjects dis.
cussed, according to Mrs. Francis
Sanderson, president of the fedora
.tion, were the arrangements of salads,
the trimming of bonnets, psychology,
dietetics, and finally, but not the
least-politics.
DIR. A. F. Woods welcomed the con.
vention. Members of the Prince
Georges county group were hostesses.
Another feature of the session was
the address of DR.. Ella Lonn, who
advised the women to discontinue the
practice of giving pink teas and
bridge parties, and pay little more
attention to vital political subjects.

reelected from Kansas. Senators w.
P. Dillingham; Of Vermont and W. L.
Jones Of Washington have been re-
elected.
Senator Harding will be succeeded
in the senate from Ohio by Ex-Governor
Frank B. Willis, Republican.
Two Republican candidates, Endorsed
by the Non-Partisan League, have been
elected to the senate, E. F. Ladd in
North Dakota and Peter Norbeck In
South Dakota.
Changes In the House.
A number Of changes will occur in
the personnel of the house. Ex-Sena-
tor Theodore E. Burton of Ohio has
been returned as a member Of the
house of representatives.
In the present house there are 2333
Republicans, 191 Democrats, two In
dependents and one Prohibitionist.
There are eight vacancies in the house
membership which were filed. In tha
present house the Republicans have q
plurality of AZ over the Democrats and
a majority of 80 over all other parties

forty-two over the Democrats.
Both houses of the New York Legis
lature have also gone Republican by
considerably increased majorities.
Senator James w. Wadsworth, Jr.
was elected easily, despite the opposi'
tion of the woman suffragists, who
were embittered by his consistent an
tagonism to their cause in recent
years. His plurality over Harry G.
Walker, the Democratic nominee
seems to be about 365,000. although
Republican headquarters are claiming
100000.
In Connecticut Senator Frank 81.
Brandegee, also opposed by the wo-
man suffragists and by some League
Republicans because Of his outspoken
hostility to the League, will have a
margin of $4,000 or more over Con-
gresham Augustine Lonergan, his
Democratic opponent. .,
From coast to coast veteran and
popular Democrats fell in the general
collapse. The disaster which has
beaten Alfred E. Smith out Of the
Governorship of New York has also
defeated Senator James D. Phelan for
reelection In California, despite his
great popularity throughout the state.
In Indiana, Thomas Taggart, candi-
date for the Senate against James E.
Watson, the present holder of the seat,
was thought likely few weeks ago
to win his fight; but though Watson
has run behind the Presidential ticket
by many thousands. he is elected.
Illinois Stays Republican.
Factional fights in Illinois and Wis
consin did not disturb the Republicans.
The battle in the primaries between
the Thompson and Lowden factions in
Illinois had caused bitter anlmoslties,
and several Republican papers, includ-
ing The Chicago Tribune, supported
James Hamilton Lewis, the Democratic
nominee for Governor, against Lem
Small, the Thompson Republican cam
didate. But Lewis was overwhelming
ly defeated, and William B. Mckinley,
the Lowden Republican candidate for
the Senate, was elected by huge ma
jority over Waller, his Democratic op-
ponent-
Socialist members have been elected
from two New York districts where
Myer London and Morris Hillquit
we're victorious. Victor F. Berger
was returned to the lower house from
Wisconsin. One and perhaps two So
cialists were elected from Oklahoma,
according to late claims.
Throughout election night the tre-
mendous Socialist vote was subject
of comment.
Eugene Debs, Socialist candidate,
had wide appeal to voters in in
dustrial centers. In New York city
and New England factory towns his
vote was far above the 1916 figure.
The same result was returned from
the West. A total Socialist vote in
the nation of 100000 was indicated.
