iRE TURNS ADD
To c. O.P. RULE
Coolidge to Have Working
Maiority-His Own Vote
Still Growing

WASHINGTON, Nov. 7.-As final
returns from doubtful states and dis
tricts trickled in today, 1t appeared
that President Coolidge had carried
North Dakota, ana probably New
Mexico, and that the political line
up in the new congress would be as
follows:
Senate: Republicans 54; Demo-
Gratis 40; Farmer-Labor Il vacancy
(Connecticut).
House: Republicans 246; Demo-
Gratis 1874; Farmer-Labor 8; Social
lists 2.
At adjournment of congress In
June, there were in the senate 81
= Republicans, 43 Democrats and two
rfarmer-Labor, and in the House
Socialist, one Farmer-Labor and one
Independent.
In several senatorial contests, not
ably the one in Iowa, and in half a
dozen congressional districts, the
races were so close that recounts
might alter the results.
Regardless of the outcome, how
ever. the Republican organization
in both the House and senate SEEM
ed assured of working majority,
with the La Toilette insurgents un-
able to get anywhere by forming
coalition with the Democrats.
Included among the .54 senators
listed as Republicans are La Toilette
and four others--Norris. Ladd, Fraz-
ier, and Broolhart, who has been
reelected on the face of unofficial
returns, all Of whom have consistent
ly supported the Wisconsin senator
in congress-but unless they received
aid from other Republicans who at
times are inclined to vote indepen-
IDENTIFY, they would be unable to trim
the Republican vote below the bare
majority of 40.
Magnus johnson, one OF Minne-
ESta's two Earmer-Labor senator's,
last night conceded his defeat by
Representative Thomas d. Schall, a
! Republican who as a member. of the
: House has shown an inclination at
Dtimes to vote Independently. In New
Mexico, Senator Bursum, Republican,
continued to trail his Democratic
opponent, Sam G. Bratton, although

Richard Balderston, of West Not
tingham, met with a very serious ac-
cident on Monday morning. while
driving into town In his Ford
runabout.
Workmen were spreading tar and
stone chip on Cherry street, having
rope and danger signal stretched
across . the street at the Wilson
avenue corner. Mr.. Balderston was
coming at a rapid clip and did not
see the obstruction in time to check
his machine, driving directly into it,
with great force. The rope struck
the windshield, hurting splintered
glass upon the driver, who was badly
cut about the hands and face. The
thumb on the left hand was conf
pletely severed at the first Joint by
the sharp edge of a piece of glass.
Mr.. Balderston was given immedi-
ate medical attention and although
greatly weakened by the loss of
much blood from his numerous cuts
is : recovering from his painful
experience.

PREDICTS sHAD EXTINCTION

Completion of the proposed power
dam in the SusQuehanna river at
Conowingo will end shad fishing in
that stream, according to Hugh W..
Mccall, aged York attorney and for
mer owner of the famous shad bat
teries south of the McCall's Ferry
Dam. The building of the big dam
at McCall's Ferry was a big
setback" to the shad fishing In
dustry, he declared, asserting the
proposed Conowingo dam will end Il
completely.
We could have had electricity
and shad, too," Mr.. Mccall said, 'if
a proper fishway had been contracted
when the McCaA's Ferry dam was
built. The spawning fields Of the
shad lie beyond the dam and can no
longer be reached by the fish. II
has become Improbable to operate
the batteries at Havre de Grace.
In another year the shad fishing in
dustry on the SusQuehanna will be
a thing Of the past and Susquehanna
shad will become memory.

Committee are seeking countrywide
opinion as to whether it will be wiser
to resolve themselves into County

least one dollar from each family per

Red Cross Chapter. A mass meet
ing will be announced for September,

NO CECIL COUNTY FAIR


The proposed Cecil County State
Fair, on the Rudolph farm, located
just on the outskirts of Elkton. has
apparently been abandoned. e. X.
Brown, Esq, Of Elkton, has adver-
tised it to be sold at mortgagee's sale
ON August IL. It is estimated that
over $4,000 was spent on the
grounds, including the erection OF
buildings and construction of a mod
ern racetrack, last year. The failure
of the State Racing Commission TO
give dates for running races Is said
to have been the cause for aban-
doning the fair, not to mention the
storm of protest from all over the
county that was hurled at the pro-
moters of the race track scheme.
