estate which will fall to the heirs of Sir

The estate Is situated In the very heart
of the city of BntUnure, Maryland, and
represents an estate which was originally
owned by Blr George Calvert, the original
Lord Baltimore of England. There Is
considerable Interesting history connected
with the estate and the manner In which
it was tied up so that the sons of Sir
Cecil could not obtain possession of It. I
It Is said that Sir Cecil becamo of
fended with his two sons who took op
posite sides In one of the great problems
which beset the English government at
that time and as a punishment to them
leased the tract of land which .was a
part of the land grant of what waa for

ninety-nine years. Vpon this tract of
land has grown up the city of Raltlmoro

LINCOLN, Oit. Jl.-(?pec:al.)-In a
statement Issued today "Vnclo Walt"
George, chairman of the republican sinte
committee. Issues a statement in which
he states that he believes the whole re
. publican state ticket will be elected. He
draws attntlon to pat history and fee's
j that the state will be safely republican
when he votes are counted next week,
i Tomorrow ho will issue his final state
ment of the campaign. In which he wl'l
quote some figures, which he hopes the
election will prove him a prophet. The
statement today Is as follows:
"Nebraska Is a republican state. It in
one of the states In this union in which
the democrattcs have never elected their
state ticket The democratic politicians
through all these pant years have sought
tho party nominations. They have
l smiled optimistically In each campaign.
They have talked hopefully to each other
and to the people. They have worked
with more or lens energy and t'lithus'r.sm
In each state contest. They have p'.eaOed
with the voters to glva them a trial at
the state government. But they have
never gained the confidence of the voters
enough to carr ya single state election
In all these forty-seven years of the
state's history. They have been able a
few times In all these, forty-seven yearr
to get one man elected now and then,
but always that ono man, after trial, has
been repudiated by the voters and dis
missed with a single term.
First by Fraud.
"Governor Blyd was the first democrat
to get an election certificate, but It Was
conceded then and Is yet that his pro
tended election was a fraud. They
stuffed the ballot box with 4,000 votes
that were never polled. They counted
old honest John Powers out and called
It a democratic victory, for the one man.
tho first one-termer, Boyd. They elocted
Shallcnberger, their second one-term vie
tory. and thfn repudiated him at the
next state primary because ho signed
the S o'clock closing law. The third and
last democrat elected to a state office,
John JI. Morehettd, is now pleading for
that which ho pledged himself never to
take, and which was denied the other
two, a second term, and his backers pro
fess to believe In his election, In splto of
all this past history, in spite of the fact
that he Is now more discredited by the
voters than waa either of the other two
democratic governors, and In spite of
th further fact that his party in this
state Is now more fundamentally divided
than ever before In all thdse forty-seven
years. '. .
. "Shallenberger and Morehead, each In
his team, 'loaned on Mr. Bryan for the
last hard pull, leaned oh Tilm and pleaded
with him' for his : endorsement, while all
the time-each of them was a part of tho
conspiracy that has at last left him no
control of the party In this state and no
function as a Nebraska democrat except
as they can use him to beg the people for
an endorsement of his enemies. One word
now from Mr. Bryan of his honest convic
tion as to the' Morehead combination
would make the chances of the governor's
re-election as absolutely hopeless as those
of Maupln, Pool, and tho rest of their
state ticket."
Americans Lose Out
On Large Order for
the English Army
(Correspondence of tho Associated Tress.)
LONDON. Oct. IS. The failure of Amer
ican manufacturers to take advantage of
tho war situation has already caused
them the loss of large orders. The other
week the war department searched Lon
don for agents of American mills to sup
ply fdO.onO pairs of blankets to Lord
Kitchener's new army. No agents were
found and the orders went to British
mills, which were unable to give guar
antees as to when the order would be
fulfilled.
Not only the British government, hut
also the French and Russian are now call-
, Ing wildly for supplies of nil kinds, camp
j equipment and accoutrements. But the
Americans, by what Is considered here a
surprising lack of enterprise, have not
1 been on hand. It Is not a question of
i seeking business, but of having It thrust
i at them.
There is likely to be a continuous do-
j mand for blankets, olive drab uniform
cloth, which Is now manufactured for the
American army, canvas, cooking titen-
i siln, army shoes and materials which the
United States has never heretofore cx-
i ported to England.
General trade opportunities are also
offered to America, since England, Ger
many and France have largely supplied
pain and Italy and tho lesser countries
of Europe, to say nothing of the trade
with Africa, the orient and South America.
