in Garrett county continued to in
crease until 1912.
In the primary campaign of 1912
Roosevelt and Taft were candidates
for the Republican Presidential nomi-
nation, and the result in Garrett was
Roosevelt, 720; Taft, ITO. But Taft
was nominated by the convention and
Roosevelt ran as a Progressive in the
fall election. The Garrett county poll
resulted as follows: Roosevelt, Pro-
gressive, 1869; Wilson, Democrat,
1905; Taft, Republican, 655.
Theodore Roosevelt was always OPP
posed by leading politicians of his
party and by great industrial and
commercial interests of the nation,
but the fact that he was able to carry
this county on an independent ticket
over both the regular Democratic and
Republican candidates proves his per-
sonal popularity and the faith of our
people in his progressive principles.
In 1912 a progressive Democrat,
David J. Lewis, won in Garrett coun-
ty for Congress, receiving 1880 votes
against 1908 for Wagaman, Republi-
can. Lewis was elected by over 5000
plurality.
Recent Campaigns
In the presidential campaign of 1928
Alfred E. Smith was not a popular
candidate in Garrett county, polling
only 1853 as Democrat against 4371
for Herbert Hoover, Republican.
In the Congressional election of 1880
Lewis again carried this county by 80
votes over Zihlman.
The election of 1882 in Garrett
county resulted as follows:
For President, Hoover, Republican,
9048; Roosevelt, Democrat, 1882.
U. S. Senator, Williams, Republican,
1885; Tydings, Democrat, 1893.
Congressman, Smith, Republican,
1855; Lewis, Democrat, 2288.
Election of 1884
For Governor, Nice, Republican,
1889; Richie, Democrat, 1746.
U. S. Senator, France, Republican,
S216; Radcliffe, Democrat, 1717.
Congressman, Zihlman, Republican,
1898; Lewis, Democrat, 2271.
1886? We are promised "bitter
and dirty campaign" We know it is
an important one for our country.

Sinclair today coupled an explain
alton of his defeat in yesterdays
three-sided Democratic presidential
primary with a warning charge that
President Roosevelt is steering the
country straight towards initiation

Sinclair attributed his failure to
lack of popular understanding of his

switched to President Roosevelt af.
ter the first ballot.
The reason Epic did not get more

The reptiles, king cobras, adderS
and rattlesnakes, all were found in
the room of their owner in the
Alpine hotel near McGill Univer-

ter previously HAVING said the snakes
had gone "berserk" and that She
wouldn't go in unless the reptiles
