The Chapter Ended The operation is over. It was a major affair. It will take some time for the laceration to heal, bnt the soar will remain. It was almost as near a com plete rout as the enemy could have wished. Reasons and reasons will be given for the changing, but few ^ will come to the same conclusion. Returns are not complete, bnt some indications will be given: In Alamance it is a turnover from more than a 1,000 Demo cratic in the election two years ago to an average of 1200 or more Republican Only four Democrats on the ? county ticket, Judge D. J. Walk er, County Solicitor John S. Thomas, Lewis H. Holt, surveyor, and W. Ernest Thompson, cor oner, were elected, and these had no opposition. The Republicans elected their candidates for Sher iff, Register of Deeds, County Commissioners, and Representa tive in the Legislature. Hon. Robt. W. Scott was elect ed to thefState Senate. He had no opposition. The Democratic Congressmen in the 8th and 10th districts lose their seats. In this district (the 5th) Maj. Stedman wins by a small majority, less than 600, over Junius H. Harden, Republi* cau opponent. Max Gardner leads for Govern or by more than 65,000, and the Democratic State ticket is safe. Gov. A1 Smith is defeated in the State by more than 40,000, aud the electoral vote goes to Hoover. In Congress, in both the Sen ate aud House, the Republicans will have it all their way. The State Legislature is Demo cratic so far as can be learned, but the margin will be greatly reduced. Thus has ended the bitterest campaign in the country's histo' ry. The prohibition and religions issues went hand in hand. 11 IM i.J noover ueoca. The voters have rendered their verdict and Mr. Hoover is over whelmingly elected president for the next four years, ti We hand the viotor the palm. Thnt the people have expressed their confidence in Mr. Hoover, it is hoped that every expectation for the glory of the country, and more, may be the outcome. Lot us all hope, regardless of political affiliation, that the ad ministration of Mr. Hoover may bring happiness and prosperity to the-country at large. Hotchpotch. The grand old North State Democratic ship that weathered many a fierce gale in the last half century still floats, bnt is hardly sea-worthy. Thirty-two years ago she was stripped of sails, rig ging and spars by a Republioo Popnlist typhoon. She had her splendid hnll and rodder and well-trained seamen left. Thus she hove in port and was refitted, and four years later the political pirates were driven to sea. Since, another generation has come into being whioh knows little, of those turbulent days that tagged at the foundations of society and good government. With little or no concern for the safety of the com monwealth and ignorant of the travail of the Mother State in the 90's, they joined the assfitants ?and the tragedy of a score and a halt years ago is praetieally re peated. Bat Democracy, Phoe nix-like will lift herself from the "Backfire." Senator Simmons' own preciuct and couuty (Craven) did, not fol-;? low bis lead?irouv that cuts ?( i Aa a day of great disappoint ment and shattered hopes, elec tion day is preeminent. When it comes to guessing, most of as shoot wide of the mark. For instance, the elec tion. i Gov. A1 Smith says he received , next to the biggest vote ever cast for a candidate for President. Hoover is the exception. "Normalcy" is what the late President Harding looked for? kinder predicted. Something of that sort would suit the great minority now. Mr. Hoover said he propeed to oarry on the Harding and Cool ldge policiee. The way the voters ?tuck 'em in, ^it seems that Mr. Hoover's program ia endored. Too many bonds, too much tax; too many berths, too much "overhead,"?these helped to gorge the stomach of the elector ate of Alamance County and it revolted. With the big odds rolled up Tuesday for U. 8. Senators, who are under no obligations to North Carolina's Senior Senator for their support, to whom shall M r. Simmons look for succor and comfort t Senator Simmons, after all is ?aid, appears to be someting of a political seer. His last pro nouncement just a day or two before the election said' AI Smith would be defeated 30,000 in this State, bat it is more. Tuesday was a lit day to take to the "dugouts," with debris tailing on all sides and no cer tainty as to where it would fall. A regular tropical tornado tear ing political craft from their seemingly safe mooting*. At the 1924 eleotlon Craven County, Senater Simmons' homo County, went Democratic 14 to 1. At Tuesday's election Mr. 8immons* voting precinct went against him, also his oounty, by a small margin. It was a big turn-over, nevertheless. M. Coolidge was moved to send a telegram of* congratulations ,to Mr. Hoover on his speech at St. Louis, as the latter was speeding toward his California home to vote, and that is about the only thing that Coolidge said during the campaign, of which there is any >rd. Hoover is classed as a Q taker, but he ought to pass the mantle over to Coolidge. Poultry Program. Grow Better Poultry Free From Phone?Keep Record* of Cost* and Income. The program for the North Car olina poultry producer to follow the coming year it to produce better breeding stock and to keep it free from disease. ?'Once this better producing stock free from disease is secured, every effort should be made to keep it free," nays Dr. B. F. Kaupp, head o! the poultry department at State Collage. Doing this will help to reduce the mortality of our birds; will make it unnecessary to cull ao frequently and will help to maintain high egg production durt lag the season of high prices. I is also good bnoiaass lor the poul try grower to keep an accurate record of his expenses and receipts. Only iu this way caa he , tell whether or not his birds are .pay ing for their keep." So ea to get the beet price* for egga, Dr. Kaupp advisee hatching atlaast one-half of the pallets ao as to oome into ley during August and the other helf to begin laying in October. Lights should be used to prevent a slump in production sad neck moult. In his teats at the college, Dr. Kaupp ha* found that nothing *<> Impair* the health of the everagt flock a, a wet floor on used by a lanky rod. Evan a concrete floor laid upon the dirt without a layer of cinder* or river gravel will be wet and make the hens sick. A. sick hen will not lay. J Drafts op the birde caused by crack* in he house also .cause sickness and so does an unclean house. Dr. Kaupp says that it is imperative to keep the house clean. The nests especially should be clean . if quality eggs are to be sold. If hens try to roost in the nests, go out at night, he^advises, and lift ihe birds onto the perch poles. The poultry department is offer ing a special short course for poul try men of North Carolina during the period of November 19 to 24 when these and other questions will be discussed by practical growers and scientist^.
