HARRY B. MATTHEWS
ELECTED COUNCILMAN
Spirited Municipal Election Of Tues
day Results In Defeat Of Lewis
J. Hancock, Incumbent

Quite spirited municipal election
took place on Tuesday last in POGO
moke City. L. J. Hancock, engaged
in the mercantile business, whose
term as City Councilman had expired
was opposed, in his candidacy for re.
election by Harry B. Matthews, an.
other merchant.
Mr.. Matthews had announced him.
self last Saturday as Mr.. Hancock's
opponent, and before that time and
since, had worked up quite a large
backing.
Mr.. Hancock had expressed himself
as being luke warm concerning reten-
ton in office, and assumed an indif-
ference which would indicate that he
would make no effort to be returned
victor in the approaching election.
However, no man likes to run for
office and be defeated. Consequently
when he saw he had a fight on his
hands, he began to hustle.
It seemed tho that his opponent had
begun to hustle first, or hustle faster,
and when the ballots were counted
Mr.. Matthews was found to be the vic
tor by 112 votes; he having polled
257 to Mr.. Hancock's 145.
This was an unusually large vote
for a town office, and was specially
marked by the interest taken in the
result by the woman vote. They
turned out in large numbers, and ap-
parently have it in for the present ad-
ministration.
The scenes attending this election
reminded one of those characteristic
of more important battles of the bal
lot. The rival candidates were MAX
ing strenuous efforts to get out the
vote; the automobile being brought
into requisition to convey the parti-
sans from and to the polls. Elec-
tioneering was greatly in evidence and
it is uncertain whether the politicians
remained away a legal distance from
the voting booth. However, none were
arrested for violating that order.
The most conspicuous reason for
Mr.. Hancock's defeat was, it appears,
general desire for a change. This
is at the base of many rotation in
office. It is often heard remarked:
"He has been there long enough, let
somebody else have chance" A
great many times, too, the opinion
gets abroad that an official is work.
ing his job more from a personal
standpoint, than from the viewpoint
Of the public good, and it is set down
as moral certainty that another man
would not do so.
Whatever the reason, Pocomoke's
citizenry set the stamp of disapproval
on the. present incumbent. The in
coming. Councilman must bestir HIM
self to see wherein the trouble lies,
and act accordingly.
Mr.. Matthews comes into office
highly respected as a man and citi-
zen. It is our opinion the city may
anticipate a liberal and intelligent ad-
ministration of duty.
