THURSDAY. NOV. 6. 1913.
It affords us pleasure to publish
this week a letter from Ernest M
Joye, of Hemingway, telling simply
and modestly the story of his wonderful
achievement in corn growing
the past two years. From a single
acre of Williamsburg soil this remarkable
lad gathered in two successive
years three hundred and six,ty-nve
bushels of corn. Well may
President Phinizy, of tlie Georgia
Railroad Bank, say "it couldn't be
done." But this boy, Ernest, went
ahead and did it. We are glad to
learn that Ernest is going to college,
although he will, be missed from
41 the ring", which he says he leaves
to other amhitious hoys. His example
is well worthy of emulation. We
hope it may l>e an inspiration to
many other bright boys. The value
of the special advertisement he has
given his county and State within
the past two years would l>e hard to
estimate. We wish our young friend
mighty well and we shall watch
with interest his future career.
FUSION WINS IN NEW YORK.
Democratic Victories In New
Jersey and Massachusetts.
New York,November 4:?Election
returns at a late hour tonight showed
a complete triumph for the Demin
Massachusetts, where a
Governor and State ticket were
elected in a four-cornered fight; the
election of a Democratic Governor
and State ticket in Virginia without
contest, the ascendency of fusion
over Tammany io New York city,
with indications of Republican victory
for. the New York Assembly
and judicial ticket, and a close fight
for the State ticket in New Jersey,
where President Wilson and Administration
forces fought to elect Jas
J Fielder to the Governorship. In
Maryland a Democratic Senator was
chosen.
In Massachusetts David I Walsh,
Democrat, present Lieutenant Governor,
was elected by a plurality of
about 50,000 over Augustus P Gardner,Republican;
Charles R Bird.Progressive,
and Governor Eugene E
Foss, Independent.

error of Virginia, together with an
entire State ticket. Republicans and
- Progressives had declined to name
candidates because of inability to
agree on a united ticket.
Returns from New Jersey were
delayed, though Democratic leaders
claimed a safe plurality for James J
Fielder for Governor over Edward C
Stokes, Republican, and Everett Colby,Progressive.
In the early returns
Stokes and Fielder were running
neck and neck. The Democrats
claimed Hudson county for Fielder
by 25,000, while Republican leaders
asserted supremacy for Stokes. Fielder,
who succeeded President Wilson
as Governor of New Jersey, had the
support of the National Administration,
several members of the Cabinet
taking the stump in his behalf.
