LEAGUE FORMING FOR

A new league has been formed. As
yet ii has no title but conidentally
1t is the League of Outraged
Mammals. Mammals who were trained
in the best traditions Of her late ma
iesty Victoria. and whose dearest
ideals and most cherished beliefs are
ruthlessly trampled on and kicked
daily by their iconoelastie young
daughters of the postwar period. But
il is a long worm that has no turn
ing. says the proverb, and the same
is true of the Mammals. They have
struck-they stood for the bobbed
heads. painted faces and short skirts
OF their female children, but they suf-
fered. and now they have baked at

Electric Eels Light River
skipper From South American Waters
Tells Weird Yarns

A terrible tale of the torrid zone was
unfolded by Capt r. H. Terrible the
other day on the arrival of the steam
er Denis. which plies between New
York and Manaos. a port about 100
miles up the Amazon river. The skip
per vowed by marine and other saints
never had he seen sights so strange.
On river which empties into the
Amazon near Manaos. he said he saw
myriads of electric cells so strongly
charged with electricity that the
broad bosom of the stream was flood
ed with light and the crew were able
to read their pocket Bibles by the
glow. which was estimated at 40 watts
per eel.
When seamen brought some of these
high-vol,aged cells on deck. Captain
Terrible said. the ships dynamOs were
short-circuited and there was the
dickens TO pay until the cells were dis
connected
But Skipper Terrible hadn't finish
ed While the Denis was tied up at
the pier boy who was working with
loading gang fell into the river.
The luminous cells surged around
him. and when ne was picked up he
was dead A physician who examined
the body said that the lad was the
victim of an electric oyercharge. Cap
tain Terrible brought back with him

only al night-New York Times.

Democrats Present Strong Ticket

City Democrats have united in the
selection Of experienced and qualified
persons to settle pressing municipal
matters and raise the standard Of To-
cal government, and set forth their
position in the following communities
tIon.
TO THE VOTERS or ANNAPOLIS,
The determination Or the Demo
cratic party OF Annapolis to offer the
city thoroughly qualified persons as
members Of the next City Council.
has been generally recognized. The
ticket as nominated represents re-
markable degree Of experience in city
affairs and special qualification TO
handle a number OF matters which are
OF pressing importance.
The Democratic nominees are men
who are willing 10 give their time and
energy 70 the service Of the commu-
nifty at "A considerable sacrifice OF their
personal interests and they are ami
mated by 4 desire 20 act solely ~ the
public interest An examination Of
the personnel Of the nominees proves
this TO anyone in touch with the az
fairs Of Annapolis.
The nomination OF this ticket is the
result OF clear recognition that
there are a number OF matters Of pres
aing importance which must be set
tied promptly. and that the City COun-
ell offers. during the next two years,
an unusual opportunity for public
service.
At Is imperative that the affairs OF
the city should be organized and sys-
tematizcd in such way that the var
ious phases of city activities should
be maintained 10 degree ia keeping
with the position OF Annapolis. and il
Is highly important that the next
Council take mp the various questions
connected with the water supply OF
the city and settle them solely in the
public interest
With the increase OF the thickly
built section Of Annapolis in recent
years and the necessity for additional
paved streets. sewers and other inn
provemcnts. together with diminished
revenue. the question Of the financial
administration of the city has become
acute. This is particularly SO, be
cause Annapolis fails to get the prop
or contribution from the Federal and
State governments for objects for
which they have a clear RESPONSE

VICTORY INDICATED

eminent is concerned.
The discriminating voter. looking
about for some issue TO be decided by
the pending campaign, has found that
there is no essential difference be-
tween the two parties on any partic-
ular local topic. that no matter OF
party principle is involved, and that
It is nothing more nor less than a
question OF continuing the dominant
party in power or of experimenting
with the minority party.
Water Go. Not Party Issue
There seems TO be, in fact, the usual
complete dearth of local issues. The
water question during recent years
served 10 stir up some agitation, but
that was never party difference. II
is pointed out that when. little over
TWO years ago three Democratic mem

in. it was with the two Republican
members they joined 10 precipitate

that this obstructive performance was
directly responsible for the present
law. under which no such situation as
was then created can arise again.
Democrats Sponsored Pure Water
AS matter of fact. the one prog
ressive and definite move toward a
pure and adequate water supply came
under the same Democratic auspices
that were then being opposed. and
today Democrats and Republicans
| alike are found in increasing num-
bers committed to the establishment
of filtration plant, which was then
| the alleged object OF attack Citizens,
| regardless of party, are found on
| every hand demanding that which
ever parry is in power in the next
administration must do something to
| purify the citys water. Time and
again they have been told by every
| expert consulted that filtration is an
urgent necessity. and that it must
eventually be adopted. Moreover, an
order is outstanding from the State
| Board of Health requiring its install
! lation. When il does come, through
/ one party or the other,--the fact is
not apt TO be lost sight of that it was
under Democratic administration
| that the plan was conceived and fos-
/ tered. In the present campaign, the
/ Democrats are pointing to a construc-

and with experienced officials on
their ticket TO accomplish il.
6. q. Z. Has Not Made Ont Case
These points are among the ones
being talked about by the voters as
the campaign closes, and there is
every indication that a majority of
them have come TO the conclusion
that the Democratic party is the one
to stand by for the >betterment of the
city The prevailing sentiment seems
to be, in short. that the Republicans
have not made out sufficient case
for a change of control.
