One man absolutely "sure of his job" when the Dauphin County Re publican committeemen meet for or ganization next time Is Al. S. Cooper, of this city, for years secretary of the committee. Mr. Cooper is one of the silent but very potent factors in Dauphin coun ty politics. No more enthusiastic Re publican resides in Dauphin county, and enthusiasm Isn't his only party virtue. He knows how to work and from one end of a campaign to an other he is on the job early and late. He is better acquainted with political conditions in Dauphin county than al most any other one man. He 1s secre tary in fact as well as In name. All of the accounts of the county committee are in his hands and so excellent Is his bookkeeping that the morning after election day his books are always ready for auditing and his report of expenses ready for filing at the court house. He is a stickler for detail and not one penny Is spent by the county committee that is not accounted for on his books, even down to a penny postage stamp. Mr. Cooper worked hard during the past campaign and was one of the happiest men in the county when the returns began to make the Republican landslide apparent. County Chairman Horner says that Cooper was a big factor In bringing about the great vic tory. Incidently, this photograph is pub lished without his permission. He is as modest as he is efficient, and It won't be any use for him to ask where the Telegraph got this picture, for that is a secret.

WILSON ADMINISTRATION SAID TO BE BADLY DISAPPOINTED A Washington special to the New York Sun says: "Now that the returns have given a pretty definite idea of the result of last Tuesday's elections, politicians here have begun to analyze the record. While the Democrats still profess, when talking for publication, to see in the results a great victory for the Wilson administration, the fact is that privately they are bitterly dls. appointed. "This Is particularly true in regard to the election returns from the States with the big votes in the electoral col lege, which are ordinarily counted doubtful and upon which every Demo cratic candidate for the presidency must depend for his election. "Such States are New York, Massa chusetts. New Jersey. Pennsylvania, Illinois and Ohio. In every one of these States of so great importance in a presidential contest the Republicans, it is pointed out, made remarkable gains. "Republicans insisted to-day that had President Wilson been running last Tuesday for re-election he would have been defeated on the basis of the returns. They say the electoral votes of all the States except the solid South, Kansas, California, Colorado, Missouri, Nehraska, Oklahoma, Utah and West would have gone Republican." OPEN FORMATION BEING USED New Stylo Has Not Benefited Germans; .Men Dark Initiative By Associated Press Paris, Nov. 7, 7 A. M.—lt was re marked that the enemy seemed to be abandoned the methods of advancing In dense masses and had tried attack ing in oi>en order, making use of all available cover, moving forward by short spurts and throwing themselves down when the French qulck-flrer.s opened on them. The result, it ap pears, has been no better, as the men seem to lack the Individual initiative required to make this method effective. None of these attacks so far have made any impression on the French line. REALTY TRANSFERS Realty transfers yesterday included the following: W. S. Harris to Mary E. Lerew, 18: si Zarker, $1; F. E.
