Democrats swept Rowan county
Tuesday and carried 26 of the 80
precincts in the county and State
races, and u in the national con-
test. A record-breaking total of
over $4,000 vote was noted.
President Roosevelt carried the
county by more than three to one,
his vote being 1906 compared
with 4,17O for Governor Alfred
M. Landon.
In the Governors race, Clyde
Hoey, Democratic nominee, was
given 10,147 votes; Gillian Girls
som, his opponent, obtained 6,511.
Congressman R. L. Doughton
led his Republican foe, Watt
Gragg, 11,4O1 to 1872.
Incumbents in county officers
were reelected and include: Sheriff
J. H. Krider, who led the ticket
with 1910 votes against 4,722
for his opponent; W. D. Kizziah,

auditor; R. L. Bernhardt, T. M.

Vermont and Maine.

President Roosevelt Tuesday
piled up the biggest electoral ma
jority any candidate ever enjoyed
since the nation grew up.
So vast Vas his margin over
Landon that followers called it a
clear mandate for MI. Roosevelt to
continue his liberal policies; even
some of his bitterest opponents said
every real American must stand be-
hind the President.
Some reactions were Immediately
visible. The stock market was
thrown into a buying whirl, with
some issues advancing to a new
five year high and Only public uti-
lily stocks the objects of heavy
selling.
Just two States, Maine and Yer
mont, with a focal of eight cleo
toral votes stood On the Landon
side. New Hampshire spent cleo
ton night in the Landon column,
then climbed on the Democratic
bandwagon.
In the end, the President had
523 electoral votes, Landon 8. 1t
was the nearest approach to unani-
nifty in the electoral college since
James Monroe was reelected in
1920 with only a single vote
against him.
A correspondingly top-heavy ma
jority in House and Senate seemed
likely. The Democrats appeared to
be winning enough seats to give
them Is of the sc in the Senate.
House returns were slower but
with something like two score of
contests in doubt, the Democrats
appeared sure of going beyond 800
seats. In the upsets, they had taken
two Republican seats for every one
the Republicans had gained from
them. They had 30S members in
the last House.

The word sent her bounding up

panied by corresponding physical
well-being.

Although most of DR.. Voronoff's
experiments deal with REGENERATION

emphasizes the role of internal
glands in increasing longevity.
Correct Deficiencies
"The future of medicine will con-
centrate on supplying glandu1ar de-
ficiencies-both internal and ex-
ternal-and restoring those glands
which have run down." he said.
Life will then certainly be much
longer and more complete"
A Russian by birth, Voronoff was
naturalized in France long before
the war. He attracted world atten-
ton to his monkey-gland expert
ments in the 1920's.

tainly put her through the mill. AS
for myself, I called it quits when
you pulled me out of the hole this
last time. What d'you say?"
He tossed his half-smoked cheap
cigar cupboard and held out his
once-flabby now firm-muscled hand.
Garth gave it heatry grip.

hard feelings against either Of you.

plucky and sporting than could have
been expected. I wish you both bon

then his smile hardened. "That side
of the matter will have to wait. I
shall first settle with your friend
Hubby"
The millionaire frowned.
"Don't call that murderous hound

understandable. My wounding was
of course what he claimed-sheer
accident. But for the scoundrel to
abandon helpless girl to starva-
ton! If he was too cowardly to dare
her frenzied threats and forcibly
take her and me with him in the
canoe, he could at least have had the
plane come for us"

rascal who would have murdered
you for your claim! I'll run him
down and make him pay in full for

Ellis punishment will cost you
nothing, Mr.. Ramill. He has been
trapped by his own greed"
Trapped"
Before we came aboard, word
was received by radio that man
named Huxby had recorded plati-
mum placer claim at Fort Smith; that
he had bought large airplane, and
flown north with three miners"
Mr.. Ramil looked his doubts. ''Ive
heard nothing of it."
Because thought best for you
not to-"
"You! Do you mean to tell me that
everyone on this steamer kept mum
because you, a mere prospector-"
The millionaire paused. "Have been
blind? You are not common pros
pector There's something about you
in spite of your vagabonding
about this north country!"
Garth said: 1--WE are talking about
Hubby. I've radioed for Northwest
policeman to meet me at Simpson
with a plane. The charges are rob-
berry and assault to murder
'Radioed? The skipper told me his
tranSmitter was out of order"
"By my request, sir. I thought it
as well to keep you out of the affair.
It is possible Miss Ramill may have
recovered from her resentment
against him. I'll ask you to pardon
my going to see if there are any
more reports on Huxby's move
mentS."
Though by no means curt, the dis
missal was abrupt. Mr.. Ramill stood
bordering for several moments be-
fore he returned to the cabin and
went to the door of the stateroom

wife had shared with Lilith.

Doubtful of safe night landing at
this unused beach, the steamer cap

noe, Garth steadied Mr.. Ramill into
the birchbark. At the same time
Liith stepped in ahead of her father.
She repeated the maneuver when the
two Indian paddlers drove the canoe
out alongside the little river steamer.
Garth saw no more of the girl UNI
til after the steamer tied up Fort

mouth of the Lizard river. Taken into

Her father kept almost equally
close in the shippers own room. The
canny Scot had welcomed the Amer

consideration. The cabin was jam

the crew. He kept to his worn buck
