*. After all that the Democrats have said about their ability to administer the affairs of the United States with equal and exact justioe to all, we hope now that the responsibility devolves upon them, that they wiil make good.

It is a great deal easier to promise than to fulfill. It is the responsibility of administration tvhich tests an officer or a political party. In these days when every vqt^r is a critic, it is no easy task t.o administer the affairs of a gredt nation.

The election throughout the United States discloses a great political independence among the voters. Although we belong to the party which has sustained a sore defeat, still we believe intelligent independence is a good thing in politics.

When anyone says that Hancock county can be carried by any one not a I temocrat, tell him in the words of a prominent citizen of the United States that he is a "liar." When Hancock county goes anything, but Democratic, look out for the end of things, for there will sure be. "something doing."

If protection is a special privilege to a few, a steal, and is unconstitutional. we hope President Elect Wilson will lose no time after he is inaugurated, in putting into effect a revenue law in keeping with Democratic ideas, so that it may have a fair trial before the next national election.

After all political philosophy has been exhausted on the results, we are satisfied to conclude that a Democratic victory was due, and could not be avoided. We do not believe the returns justify the' conclusion that any Republican, not even Roosevelt, could have been elected this year. The people wanted a radical change and they have it.

No one can blame the Democrats who have been outside the pale of the "Federal Pie Counter" for sixteen years, if they show considerable activity in their efforts to secure a- "hand-out.' At this moment we are not in position to do more than extend our sympathy, but of that we give ungrudgingly. In an orderly way and on a merit basis, we believe in the old Jacksonian idea that "to the victors belong the spoils."

While no new political parly in the past fifty years in the United States has made the showing that the Progressive party did last Tuesday, still it did not make any inroads on the Democratic party. It had been the contention of the new party that it would form the. avenue through which all reformers could come together in one party. In this they did not succeed. The Democrats, the Prohibitionists and Socialists seem to have stayed with theflr parties. The new party votes very largely came from the Republican party. -The Democrats throughout the whole country remained loyal to the old party organization. This is especially noticeable in the Solid

South.

The Red Cross Society of the United States is one of the greatest agencies for good, if not the best 'single agency for the general good in this country. The work that

•has done in the past is wonderful, and still it has only begun. It deserves the united support and financial assistance of all the people.

The county organization will ,-push the Red Cross work here with the especial view of combating the •disease of consumption. Red Cross "Stamps will be sold and the money '•used in the fight against consumption or tuberculosis in Hancock ^.county. It is a worthy cause and ^everybody should aid it by the purchase of Red Cross Stamps.

From present indications it se&fis -that there will be very little buy*ing of votes on election day. The .. "floater" will have to float into the 'booth without being bribed to vote -some certain way4

Joseph E, Bradley, of Summitville formerly of this county, was here Wednesday.

High Standards

One reason why this bank has become a large factor in the important financial and commercial affairs of Greenfield is that it has always maintained a high standard of ideals.

It has confined its business to strictiy legitimate channels and always sought stability before profit. It has won the confidence of banks and business men.

It welcomes accounts with business men and individuals who recognize the value of high standards in business. CAPITAL STATE BANK (The First State Bank in the County.) J. L. BINFORD, PKES. 0. M. CURRY, V.-PRES W. J. THOMAS, ASS'T. CASHIER N. C. BINFORD. CASHIER

If Hallowe'en celebrations were confined to legitimate fun-making, it could be made a pleasure occasion which would be welcomed by everybody. The true Hallowe'en spirit is fun. The comic make-ups and peculiar conduct appeals very strongly to the children and young people, and in many cases is thoroughly enjoyed by older people. There is in society, however, a class that is naturally inclined to violate the law, and this class is glad, under the guise of a Hallowe'en mask to commit crime. These sneaks should be prosecuted to the limit of the law. They should be shown no mercy. If they belong to respectable families they should be made examples of in order that the practices may be broken up.

Vacancy on Republican National Ticket To. Be Filled After the Election By the National Committee.

Chairman Hilles, of the Republican National Committee, has announced that he has called a meeting of the National Committee for November 12th at Chicago, to select a successor to James S. Sherman as Republican candidate for vicepresident. The chairman said such a selection could only be made after due and sufficient notice to all members of the committee and can not be given in less than six days, making it impossible te make the nomination before the election.

Continuing, he saia: "Meantime, no difficulty or inconvenience will arise to the voters at the election next Tuesday, because the votes to be cast then are for electors, and not for candidates for either the President or Vice-President, and the death of Mr. Sherman, therefore, does not affect the validity of the election of the electors."
