The suit Of Captain w. w. Mills OF the
Washington Continentals against John
Kelly, to recover SG5, the value of the Con
tinental uniform, came up before Justice
O'Neil yesterday afternoon. The trouble
grew out of split In the ranks Of the com
pany, The suit dwindled down, as to which
party were the Continentals proper. The
plaintiff showed that the uniforms were the
property Of the company, and that fund
had been raised to purchase them. The
seceders claimed that they had nearly all Of
the officers and forty-eight men, and they
were the Continentals, and had right to
their uniforms. Decision was reserved In

Growing Sentiment In
Washington County.

KEEDYsvILLE, Md, May Is, 'S6.
EDITOR FREEMAN:
Sample copies to hand and
judiciously distributed.
If your standard can be kept up
to SO much Temperance and
Prohibition matter, with the grow
ing sentiment, l am of opinion
that this long needed help for
Maryland work will prove quite a
benefit to US.
In order to expedite the glorious
triumph of our cause, our need is
solid Temperance literature, SO that
the people can be fully awakened
to the Importance of informing
themselves, that they may come
to vote intelligently on the vital
question of the day, the entire
Prohibition of the rum traffic. We
have a steady, growing sentiment
here that will eventually come to
the front with telling effect. The
question among Prohibitionists is
now the nomination of candidate
for Congress at an early date.
Yours Respectfully,
PROFIT.

For a Dollar.
NOW'S THE TINE 10 PUSH
THINGS.

Our special offer, as already an
nounced, is to send THE FREEMAN,
at rate of One Dollar Year to all
new subscribers secured between
now and November next.
The FREEMAN has no other bust
ness or purpose than to rencsr the
best possible service in the cause
of Prohibition to the largest pos
sible constituency.
If it can materially enlarge its
constituency, it can come and con-
tinue to come at one dollar. 1t is
for our friends to say whether its
subscription lists shall be doubled
or trebIed If they so decide, the
matter is settled.
If Prohibition sentiment is de-
veloped and crystalized into law, it
must be done largely through the
medium of Temperance papers.
To get these papers into fami-
lies, requires the active work OF
friends in every neighborhood.
We earnestly ask all such friends
to whom this message comes, to
start at once the work of getting

Workers i'm the Garrett

We have letter from our busy,
always at work sister, Jennie
Smith, written at Pittsburgh, in
which she says: II spent Sabbath
at Keyser; had to go right past
home to Oakland, to help in the
Local Option Fight; attended the
call day" meeting, for two hours !;
then went with Mrs. Martin to
Bloomington, for mass meeting.
She remained and went to the polls
with the Bloomington ladies. Mr..
Vanmeter came in from his meet
ing in the country, and we took the
Accommodation for Swinton,
where we spent an hour at hard
work at the polls; took Way
Train, and as we passed Deer Park,
cheered the ladies who were out at
the polls, working like soldiers;
went on to Oakland, and worked
at the Court House till evening;
drove over home for few minutes,
and then took train for Waynes-
burg"
