MEssRs. EDIToRs-Last spring only
some eight votes were needed to secure
local option for year in shepherds
town. This small majority against II
was gained by the putting in OF illegal
votes and by paving the taxes oil persons
who otherwise would not have had the
right to vote, and who voted for whisky
The temperance people had submitted
the question and were bound to abide
the issue for a year. They are free now
to protest against this way of deciding
such an ISSUE, and may justly demand
another vote next spring of the Council
While the churches are uniting In
their efforts to save souls by preaching,
let not the pastors and Christian AsSo-
citation forget that whisky has driven
souls further from God during this past
wear. Let them not forget that If any
thinq is to be done 1t must be done quickly
and by thar organized effort. There is
no one else to do this work 1t Us their
acork, and should no more be neglected
than the work Of the past week. Proper
organization and work will carry local
option, and the Council are bound to
let the vote be taken or admit previous
frsuJ Yox.

Great Falls Fishway.-Congre


last session made an appropriation of
$50, 900 to construct fishway on the
Potomac river at Great Falls, Montgom-
cry county. The direction of the work
was placed under the charge of Major
Lydecker, the engineer in charge of
the water works extension, though the
plan OF the tishway was to be that adopt
ed by Prof. Baird, OF the Smithsonian
and Fish Commission. Major Lydecker
was ready to go on with the work when
he ascertained that the pater tees of the
fishway adopted by Prof. Baird, gen.
tlemen connected with the fish COM
mission, wanted $4,000 of the appro-
priation for the use of their invention.
This suspended the work, for Major
Lydecker took the position that all the
money apr opriated should be used to
construct the fishway rather than be
used in purchasing royalty oil par
ticular system or patent fishway. Should
the law be- amended this session so that
the chief Of engineers of the army can
construct any kind of fshway with
out purchasing the use of the particular
system recommended by Prof. Baird,
the work can be commenced early this
spring. II it is not amended in some
way things will remain as they are and
no fishway will! be constructed.

Hens From Sharpsburg.

Some time has elapsed since l have
added anything to The columns OF your
valuable paper from our place, but o"-
ing to the scarcity Of news could not
find anything interesting. VIII ell
deavor in the future to find something
once in while to interest you.
A large revival has been in progress
i'm the Winebreuuarian or Gods Church,
as it is called. Quite number have
been converted, and a large number of
penitents still at the altar. The church
has been crowded nightly and good or
der generally prevails. The pastor,
Elder Montgomery, is untiring in his
efforts to save souls. He is a forcible
speaker, plain and practical, and never
fails to draw large audiences.
A great deal of thieving is going on
in and around Sharpsburg. Corn cribs
are visited, hen roosts are robbed, and
smoke-houses entered and the choicest
pieces of meat taken. There is set of
people in our community, like there is
in other places, who are tritiing and
idle and will not work, and consequent
ly must live OF of those who labor and
toll.
Mr.. John w. Fisher, undertaken and
cablnet-maker, Of our place, has just
completed a handsome communion ta-
Bile for the Lutheran Church, which
for beauty Of design aud exquisite
workmanship we doubt il it can be eX-
ce!led. The table is made OF solid wal
nut, finished in oil is five feet in length,
two and a-half feet in width, and three
feet in height. The front and ends Of
the table are paneled, and are divided
of into five spaces; in each one Of the
spaces is monogram cut out of oak.
On the front panels ara A and o, |. II.
s. with cross and crown and z. "; on
the front of the table near the top is the
following motto in old RnglisE letters
cut out of oak, the words of the Saviour
to his disciples at the institution of the
Holy Supper: "This do, in remembrance
of me-" On the table rests a cross two
feet In height, with the motto in oak,
the last words of the Saviour when he
expired on the cross, sit is finished"
The design must be seen to be fully APP
preciated, and certainly reflects great
credit on the architect.
The public schools of our place are
filed to overflOwing-3S0 pupils en-
rolled. OF this number l0l are in the
primary department, Misses Prudence
Keedy and Mollie Siess teachers; lib in
the first intermediate, j. p. Smith and
Mrs. Salena NJ. Grayson teachers; st In
the second intermediate, Miss Emma
Mcdaniel teacher, and the remaining
80 in the grammar department, taught
by Prof. Schindel.
Mr.. Charles Spong, son of Mr.. David
Spong OF our town, whilst cutting wood
the other day gashed his foot very
badly, severing the bone. Fears are
entertained for his recovery.

ment on the purchase Of the Washing
ton. Ohio and Western Railroad by its
present owners was made to the COM
missioners of sale in New York Satur-
day last aud release executed. 1t Is
said the road will be extended westward
as far as Boyceville, Clarke county, Va,
OIL the Shenandoah Valley Railroad, as
speedily as possible.
By the new schedule of the Cumber-
land Valley Railroad, which took ef-
feet on Monday morning, new train
is added to leave Hagerstown at 7.42 A.
NJ, daily except Sunday, upon the ar
rival of the fast mail from Baltimore.
This train arrives at Martinsburg at S.45,
and will cause the delivery of the Bal
timore daily papers two hours and
twelve minutes earlier than by the first
train arriving at that point via the
the B. and o. Road. There will also
be a close connection with the Western
MARYLAND fast mail eastward, which
leaves Hagerstown at $50 A. NJ, by
train leaving Martinsburg 8 A. M. and
arriving at Hagerstown at $40.
1t is stated on authority which can be
set down AS reliable that upon the ex-
tension of the Washington and Ohio
Railroad to Berryville, traffic arrange
ment with the Pennsylvania Railroad
will 90 into effect. This will bring the
Shenandoah Valleys business to Alex
andria, and thence over the Baltimore
and Potomac to Baltimore, and the Z.
w. and b. to Philadelphia. From, AL
exandria TO Berryville is about seventy
miles, of which twenty mics are to be
built. The distance from Alexandria
to Baltimore is about forty-seven, ana
from Baltimore to Philadelphia ninety
eight miles, making the distance from
Berryville to Philadelphia In round
numbers about 220 miles. From Ber-
ryville to Hagerstown by the Shenan-
doah Valley Railroad the distance Is
about 40 miles, "a miles from Hagers-
town to Harrisburg by the Cumberland
Valley Road, and thence los miles to
Philadelphia, or Il total distance OF 222
miles. Both routes are therefore about
equal in distance, but the Pennsylvania
Railroad is making active excrtions to
secure more business for the Baltimore
& Potomac and the p. w. and b. Roads
in time for the competition IL will have
to meet when the Baltimore ~ ONO
will have line to New York. The
Pennsylvania does not own the whole
of the interest in the Cumberland VAL
ley road, but it does in the Is. and L.
and the p. W. and b., which were costly
properties.

Mayor Harrison received communica-
ton from the Silsby Steam Fire-Engine
Company this week, stating that the
company would not be able TO send the
secondhand engine which WAS sold TO
this town, as the company had been
disappointed in getting possession Of
the engine. The Silsby company, how
ever, do not ask to be released from
their contract, but offer to build new
engine on the same terms they had
agreed TO furnish the secondhand one,
although they state they will do it at a
loss to themselves. All they ask is All
extension of time thirty days longer to
allow them to build it. A special meet
ing of the Council was held OIL Tues
day evening, and it was decided to ac-
cept the proposition of the Silsby Com
pany. The new engine will be here
about the 1st of March. This should
satisfy those persons who We're opposed
to a secondhand engine, but We sup
pose there will still be some grumbles
from the chronic grumbler..

From the Independent:
"Many persons have already broken
the VOWS they made on New Year, but
we are not that kind at this office. On
January lst we resolved to have clean
towel every three weeks, and we have
stuck TO the resolution ever since. We
think few printing offices can show the
same record. "-Shepherd,toic n Register.
Talk is cheap, Mr.. REGISTER. Just
wait till the clouds roll by, and you will
sing another song. A clean towel once
every three weeks? Such thing is SIM
ply impracticable in a printing office.
We never saw printer'a towel yet,
after having been in use week, that
did not have to be tied TO something
so it could not walk away.

The Canal.-Presldent Baughman,

The Canal.-Preslden Baughman,
of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, has
been in Cumberland attending 10 canal
business. He expresses the determine
ton to run the canal OH a purely bust
ness basis, and is hopeful! of good sea-
son. He is making every effort TO push
repairs, SO that water can be turned on
by March 10. He said that at the meet
ing of the canal board in Baltimore to-
day the question of tolls will be finally
settled. He thinks they will be reduced
a few cents, and said that if the coal
companies would guarantee seven hun
dred thousand tons to ship next season
by canal he wonld warmly advocate
twenty-five-cent rate. In proof OF the
success Of his economic policy, Colonel
Baughman states that the canal expenses
last December were much less than in
the CORES ponding month of 1888, and
that January will show still greater re-
dnctions, it is hoped, about $4,000, AS
compared with January, 1854, and this
too in the face of the fact that repairs
are more thorough and extensive than
for several years past.
