THE WORD COUNTY 10TE ENTIRE DEMOCRATIC TICKET IS ELECTED—REPUBLICANS VOTE FCDL STRENGTH. DEMOCRATS. RETAIN SENATE; THE HOUSE 18 IN DOUBT. New York, Nov. 8.—With thirty congressional districts to be heard from at 10.45 P. M., 202 Republi-cans, 199 Democrats, two Progres-sives, one Independent and one So-cialist have been elected to the house of representatives for the sixty-fifth Congress. Of the thirty districts yet to be heard from, 17 are represent-ed in the present Congress by Demo-crats and 13 by Republicans. Should these districts be unchanged, Uie next house would be composed of 216 Democrats, 215 Republicans and four scattering who might elect to affiliate with either side. The senate will remain under Dem-ocratic control by a reduced major-ity of 10 or 12, dependent on the out-come, in New Mexico, where A.-A. Jones, Democrat, is maintaining a slight lead over Frank A. Hubbell, nominated by the Republicans to suc-ceed Senator Catron. At this hour the senate stands: Democrats 53; Republicans 42; un-decided 1. In the senate four present Demo-cratic members, according to the lat-est indications, have been defeated. They are Senators Kern and Taggart, of Indiana; Martine, of New Jersey, and Chilton, ef Wast Virginia. Three Republiean senators—Llppitt, of Rhode Island; Clark, of Wyoming, and Southerland, of Utah- ralso have lost their seats on the basis of the re-turns. - Maj. Stedman's Majority. Honi Charles M. Stedman has been re-elected to Congress from the fifth district by an indicated majority slightly in excess of 3,000. Reports received here show that he has car-ried the following counties by the majorities named: Ouilford. 9f6; Forsyth, 400; Dur-ham, 800; Person, 100 to 200; Oran-vllle. 950; Caswell, . 650; Orsnfle, 50; Rocklngham, 200; Alamance, 60. Mr. Grissom appears to have car-ried Surry by approximately 900 and Stokes by about 100. NO WARNING TO ARABIA IS ADMIRALTY REPORT. London, Nov. 8.—The Peninsular and Oriential liner Arabia received no warning from the submarine which sank her in the Mediterranean on Monday, according to a statement issued this morning by the admir-alty. All the 437 passengers, in-f eluding 169 women and children, and all the crew with the. exception of two engineers who were killed by the explosion, were saved by vessels which went to the rescue. - "The homeward bound Peninsular and Oriental mall steamer Arabia was torpedoed without warning and snnk in the Mediterranean at about noon on November 6," says the ad-miralty statement. "The vessel had 437 passengers, including 169 wo-men and children. "All the passengers were saved by various vessels which were diverted to the scene of the disaster. Two en-gineers are missing and are believed to have been Mlled by the explosion. The remainder of the crew were saved." The heaviest vote in Tuesday's election in Guilford county was cast for president, approximately 8,235 votes being cast out of a total regis-tration of 8,700. Wilson received 4,608 and Hughes 3,627, the Wilson majority being 981. The vote for state offices was slightly In excess of 8,000 and that for county offices a little below 8,000. The Republicans came nearer poll-ing their full Strength than did the Democrats. Practically the entire registered vote of the Republican party was polled. At the hour this is written (11 q'clock Thursday morning) the offi-cial returns from all the precincts have not been received, and there-fore it is impossible to give fn this issue of The Patriot a detailed report of the vote by precincts. While ap-proximately correct, the figures- given in this article are based on incom-plete and unofficial reports and will be slightly changed by the official tabulation. The reports at hand indicate that the total vote cast in the County for the various candidates Is as follows: Democratic. • Governor—T. W. BicketW 4,620. Congress—Charles M. Stedman, 4,558.

The Democrats made sweeping gains in North Carolina in the elec-tion Tuesday..-carrying the state by the record-breaking majority of 50,- 000. The majority is greater than had been hoped for by any save the county, etc The election interfered with the November meeting of the board of county commissioners, causing the session^ usually held on Tuesday to 'be postponed until yesterday. A good deal of business was transact-ed, but practically all of it was of a routine nature, such as receiving re-ports, passing on bills against the most optimistic party workers. The entire state ticket of the Dem-ocratic party goes In with Governor MONTHLY MEETING OF THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS. Representing a number of people of the Oak Ridge section of the coun-ty, Mr. A. B.

Boston, Nov. 7.—The lives of from 30 to 40 persons were lost tonight when a crowded car of the Boston sician. road from Hendrix's mill to the ma-cadam road at Donnell's store be 'graded and otherwise Improved. It was pointed out that the improve-ment desired would prove very bene-ficial to many people. The board agreed to do the work as soon as it could be reached. Health Officer's Report. Dr. W. M. Jones, the county health officer, submitted his monthly report as follows: "County home: Everything has been moving along nicely at the home since last report. There has been only one death at the home during the month, that of an old negro wo-man. Only four visits have been made to the home. One drug habitue has been admitted. "Workhouse; Here there is noth-ing new of which to make report. There has been no sickness to amount to anything at the institu-tion during the month. Only three visits have been made. "Jail: Here there has been no sickness and fewer visits have been made during the month than at any time within the last two years. Only two calls have been made. One ne-gro who had a sentence 00 the roads, but was physically unfit to work, had a minor operation and is now able to make his time. "Camps: Like the other institu-tions there has been very little work here. Farrlngton is yet at the hos-pital and Jim George is sick and In shape. Only six visits have been made the oamps during the month. .

"Infections: Scarlet fever. .18; typhoid fever, 1; diphtheria, 14; smallpox, 0; measles, 0; mumps, 0; whooping cough, 0; infantile- paraly-sis, 2. "Scarlet fever and diphtheria show a marked increase. Both are un-evenly distributed over the county. The bulk of the scarlet fever cases may be attributed to missed oases, thus producing a slight epidemic in one locality. This, however. Is now apparently under control as there have been no new cases in a couple of weeks. "Scarlet fever Is now and has been during the fall epidemic over the state, and, being in a mild form, it ■is impossible to control it, for so many cases occur that have no phy-elerated street railway plunged [through an open drawbridge into Fort Point channel. • Twelve Other persons were rescued. One'manV Thomas J. Gannon, died af-ter being brought to shore. Two bodies were found, but the recovery of other bodies was delayed, as. it was believed, they were pinned In the car which rested on the bottom of the 86-foot channel. Gerald Walsh, motorman, who jumped before It went over the edge of the draw, asserted that the acci-dent was due to the fact that there was no light on the bridge gates. He and George McKeon, the conductor, who also leaped, were arrested on technical charges of manslaughter. The conductor was insensible snd the police could not learn the exact number of passengers. Some of the rescued estimsfed that -•.-*•.-.-'. "During the month I went to Ral-eigh for a conference with Dr. Rah-xin, of the state board of health, and Dr. McBrayer, of the state sanitarium as to the disposal and handling of tuberculosis convicts. "During the latter part of the 'month I had for a couple of days Drs. LePrlnce and Griffin, of the United States public health and ma-rine hospital service, who are ma-laria experts. There Is a possibility that we may get these men here next summer to do some work." WILL SEND CHRISTMAS SHIP AMERICAN RELIEF COMMITTEE AIDS ARMENIAN , AND SYRIAN SUFFERERS. New York, Nov. 8.—America's "Christmas ship" to foreign lands, which this year will be the navy col-lier Caesar or a collier of the same type, is being relined by the govern-ment for carrying food supplies to destitute Syrians and Armenians. It will leave New York December 1, carrying a capacity cargo of food-stuffs and new clothing for Beriut, Syria, from which port relief will be distributed by American Red Cross and Red Crescent agents, aided by United States consuls and mission-aries. The'American committee for Armenians and Syrian relief has just sent $208,000 through the state de-partment to various distribution cen-ters to be distributed Immediately by the committee's agents direct to the most needy survivors of the Ar-menian deportations and the Syrian famine months. This money will purchase grain, blankets and cloth-ing, giving the sufferers within the Turkish empire a foretaste of the Christmas cheer which the United States navy boats will bring. As a necessary precaution to the sending of the Christmas ship ar-rangements are being made for col-lections In the churches of the entire country Thanksgiving day, the re-ceipts of which will be used in com-pleting the cargo. The ship will car-ry •S/00.000 pounds of rice, 200,000 pounds of lima beans, 400,000 pounds of crushed wheat, 2,100.000 pounds of whole wheat, 600,000 pounds of sugar, 1,000 cases of con-densed milk for children, 10,000 bar-rels of flour, 60.000 gallons of petro-leum and 25,000 gallons of cotton seed oil. Military regulations forbid the carrying of any except new cloth-ing. Hundreds of cases of warm un-derwsar and sweaters and light shoes for men. women and children, stock-ings for women snd children, cotton and woolen socks tor men. blankets *nd blankst shawls, gray cotton and .fWfea^aaJfclfc^jnlpsi jublaach-ed mnsrhtamTlo^tefrtlrread, needles and pins will form a" part" of the car-go. Contributors to the cargo and churches which are raising money are sending their gifts to W. A. StauD, the Red Cross representative in charge of the Christmas ship at the Bush terminal, Brooklyn, N. Y. Navy officials and prominent church-men of all denominations will Join the ceremonies to be held .at the Christmas ship's departure, adding to its cargo the holiday good wishes of one country to the stricken races of another. Money collected on the two days recently^ proclaimed by President Wilson aa Armenian and Syrian re-lief days having been cabled already for immediate relief, more than $250,000 additional must be gather-ed to freight the Christmas ship. The funds already collected in which the proclamation days were used merely as the beginning of local cam-paigns which Will last until Thanks-giving. There is little doubt, how-ever, that even after the response of the country to the president and the committee has been registered fully, many of the most elemental needs of the deportation victims, to relieve which in Armenia alone former Am-bassador to Turkey Henry Morgen-thau estimates $6,000,000 is neces-sary, will still be uncared for per-manently, and that America's assis-tance to the sufferers of the Orient must continue.

Jones, the county health officer, submitted his monthly report as follows: "County home: Everything has been moving along nicely at the home since last report. There has been only one death at the home during the month, that of an old negro wo-man. Only four visits have been made to the home. One drug habitue has been admitted. "Workhouse; Here there is noth-ing new of which to make report. There has been no sickness to amount to anything at the institu-tion during the month. Only three visits have been made. "Jail: Here there has been no sickness and fewer visits have been made during the month than at any time within the last two years. Only two calls have been made. One ne-gro who had a sentence 00 the roads, but was physically unfit to work, had a minor operation and is now able to make his time.

"Scarlet fever and diphtheria show a marked increase. Both are un-evenly distributed over the county. The bulk of the scarlet fever cases may be attributed to missed oases, thus producing a slight epidemic in one locality. This, however. Is now apparently under control as there have been no new cases in a couple of weeks. "Scarlet fever Is now and has been during the fall epidemic over the state, and, being in a mild form, it ■is impossible to control it, for so many cases occur that have no phy-elerated street railway plunged [through an open drawbridge into Fort Point channel. • Twelve Other persons were rescued. One'manV Thomas J. Gannon, died af-ter being brought to shore. Two bodies were found, but the recovery of other bodies was delayed, as. it was believed, they were pinned In the car which rested on the bottom of the 86-foot channel. Gerald Walsh, motorman, who jumped before It went over the edge of the draw, asserted that the acci-dent was due to the fact that there was no light on the bridge gates. He and George McKeon, the conductor, who also leaped, were arrested on technical charges of manslaughter. The conductor was insensible snd the police could not learn the exact number of passengers. Some of the rescued estimsfed that -•.-*•.-.-'. "During the month I went to Ral-eigh for a conference with Dr. Rah-xin, of the state board of health, and Dr. McBrayer, of the state sanitarium as to the disposal and handling of tuberculosis convicts. "During the latter part of the 'month I had for a couple of days Drs. LePrlnce and Griffin, of the United States public health and ma-rine hospital service, who are ma-laria experts. There Is a possibility that we may get these men here next summer to do some work." WILL SEND CHRISTMAS SHIP AMERICAN RELIEF COMMITTEE AIDS ARMENIAN , AND SYRIAN SUFFERERS. New York, Nov. 8.—America's "Christmas ship" to foreign lands, which this year will be the navy col-lier Caesar or a collier of the same type, is being relined by the govern-ment for carrying food supplies to destitute Syrians and Armenians. It will leave New York December 1, carrying a capacity cargo of food-stuffs and new clothing for Beriut, Syria, from which port relief will be distributed by American Red Cross and Red Crescent agents, aided by United States consuls and mission-aries. The'American committee for Armenians and Syrian relief has just sent $208,000 through the state de-partment to various distribution cen-ters to be distributed Immediately by the committee's agents direct to the most needy survivors of the Ar-menian deportations and the Syrian famine months. This money will purchase grain, blankets and cloth-ing, giving the sufferers within the Turkish empire a foretaste of the Christmas cheer which the United States navy boats will bring. As a necessary precaution to the sending of the Christmas ship ar-rangements are being made for col-lections In the churches of the entire country Thanksgiving day, the re-ceipts of which will be used in com-pleting the cargo. The ship will car-ry •S/00.000 pounds of rice, 200,000 pounds of lima beans, 400,000 pounds of crushed wheat, 2,100.000 pounds of whole wheat, 600,000 pounds of sugar, 1,000 cases of con-densed milk for children, 10,000 bar-rels of flour, 60.000 gallons of petro-leum and 25,000 gallons of cotton seed oil. Military regulations forbid the carrying of any except new cloth-ing. Hundreds of cases of warm un-derwsar and sweaters and light shoes for men. women and children, stock-ings for women snd children, cotton and woolen socks tor men. blankets *nd blankst shawls, gray cotton and .fWfea^aaJfclfc^jnlpsi jublaach-ed mnsrhtamTlo^tefrtlrread, needles and pins will form a" part" of the car-go. Contributors to the cargo and churches which are raising money are sending their gifts to W. A. StauD, the Red Cross representative in charge of the Christmas ship at the Bush terminal, Brooklyn, N. Y. Navy officials and prominent church-men of all denominations will Join the ceremonies to be held .at the Christmas ship's departure, adding to its cargo the holiday good wishes of one country to the stricken races of another. Money collected on the two days recently^ proclaimed by President Wilson aa Armenian and Syrian re-lief days having been cabled already for immediate relief, more than $250,000 additional must be gather-ed to freight the Christmas ship. The funds already collected in which the proclamation days were used merely as the beginning of local cam-paigns which Will last until Thanks-giving. There is little doubt, how-ever, that even after the response of the country to the president and the committee has been registered fully, many of the most elemental needs of the deportation victims, to relieve which in Armenia alone former Am-bassador to Turkey Henry Morgen-thau estimates $6,000,000 is neces-sary, will still be uncared for per-manently, and that America's assis-tance to the sufferers of the Orient must continue.
