Ha a larger circulation In Shenandoah than any other paper published. Circu lation books npen to all. No one hears an j thing of any In tereet being taken in the elections lu the southern states. No one seems to care to hear the news from Maryland or Virginia or Mississippi. Everyone knows how theso states must go before a single ballot is cast, and it is a matter of absolute Indifference whether the majority Is 10,000 or 60,000. The elec tions in the south area fraud as well as a farce. Now that smokeless powder Is an assured fact, the next move In the Hue of progress towards the relief of patient and long suffering public, Is to be an odorless whiskey. Recent ex' periments have culminated in the pro- ductlon of a liquid which is unde niably whiskey, but whloh leaves no suspicion of an odor upon the breath. The new find is precltely the counter part of the old stuff except in this par ticular. In appearance and tasie no difference can be detected. But al though it possesses the same deadly qualities, the most stupendous jag will have the breath as sweet as that of tha new born babe. Phconlx Fair to Ro-open.
