when ex-Uovernor W. W. Kltchln,
following a custom of many year
standing, will sound tha final note In
the campaign In lurbaxn county.
Other than the (peaking by local

campaign haa been -done by- th
county candidates.
The opposition ha not done a great
deal of work, and are not expecting to
snake a very good showing In tha elec

but other than publishing. It In th
newspapers and calling attention to
It n that way, there has heen no light
made for thla ticket. They do not ex

Speakers who have been over Dur

past few dajs there have been a good
many calls for pamphlets containing

The most formidable ef thee weap
ons, ths one which has attracted most
attention In the present war, is the
enormous 11-lnch siege mortar.
The ll-lnch mortar was developed
and constructed In large numbers al

KaiBBo-sepaneae war. t oistincuon

siege amit Th latter ware mounted
upon Wheeled csurkaget tnd they were
oapabl of being moved with an army
oa tn - march. . The heavier siege
units, say of frera t-lnch to- 11-inch
caliber, required . special hi sans for
their transportation. The. masslvs
part such- as the gun and Its car
riage, had to be conveyed by standard
gauge railway er by ship to some place
adjacent to the field ot operation.
whence it was customary to lav a
light military railrbsd or devise other
special means .for transporting .the
batteries to the torationa assigned te
them. Before th mortars could e

then reshlpped to America. Bine the
very beginning 'of the war th Ger

R appears as If ths supply from Hol

The prices on practically all tplce
made a sharp advance when tha war
rat opened, but the practical bottling

followed a gradual reduction tn a rood
many lines. But now, according to
ths importers, this reduction seems
likely to be again followed by t non

ing so close to Thanksgiving and
Christmas time, bodes 111 for th pie
and the pudding.

"Ths addition of sufficient spices to

as If som of this spicy first -cleanness

There seems to- be a belief on the
part of the spice men that' both Hot-

drawn Into the conflict, and that an
der such conditions the only chance
that ths United State, will have to get

Should ths lattex plan be adopted
Baltimore stands in a gtvoj position te
handle much of the business and reap
