DEER PARK, Md, Oct. 90, 1898.

DEER PARK, Md, Oct. 90, 1883.
EDITOR MISUNDERSTANDING
that your many readers would like
to hear of the grand success of our
Democratic brethren, will give a
short sketch of a grand Democratic
mass-meeting held at Deer Park Fri
day. Oct. 10Th, 1888, where very
respectable and restless crowd had
assembled to organize club, and
also to be addressed by Mr.. Boyd. OF
Cumberland. but Mr.. Boyd did not
appear, but sent a substitute by the
name of Deyechmon, who addressed
this great audience of 16 Democrats
and 10 Republicans. He spoke of the
indirect tax as coming off the farmer,
and the Republicans were imposing
it on the farmer just high enough so
that he would not squeal and COM
pared them to man picking goose,
He said the object was just to pick
out as many feathers as possible, so
Mr.. Goose would not squall. He
said Ireland HAD no snakes and Ire
land had no protection. America
had snakes and America had protec-
ton, therefore snakes makes protec-
zion. Tariff is a tax on the poor man
ard a benefit to the rich man. His
argument was of no benefit to the
Republicans or Democrats, and his
speech was one of the --latest and
most pointless efforts ever listened to
in Deer Park. He said the Repub.
Leans tried to take the tariff off of
coal and would have done so had it
not been for the Democrats. He also
said the Democrats were the strongest
party and had been in power from
the formation of the Federal Govern
ment until 1860, when the Republic
cans got into power, and remained so
for "a years, and then the strong
party again came into power and
would remain so.
His argument was so thin and
pointless that he was not applauded,
and there was profound silence in
the house. Some of the Democrats
seemed to have been asleep. He told
great many things the people should
do, but gave no reason for so doing.
People always like to have a reason
for doing this and that before doing
it. Some of the Democrats said that
he was no voter. A few Republicans
had gathered in the gallery, and
when Mr.. d. closed his speech by
saving that he hoped Col. Douglas
would be elected to Congress in the
Sixth Congressional District of Nd.
loud cries were heard of "Hurrah for
McComas." hurrah for Harrison y
make another speech and quit. &c.

To the readers of the REPUBLICAN
let us say that we are making ar
engagements to make the REPUBLI-
CAN better than ever the coming
year. The time is now coming when
our people will be looking around for
reading matter for the long winter
evenings. Don't forget your county
paper. Take it and patronize home
industry. Keep posted on your own
county affairs. Ifyou have girls or
boys, take it for their sakes. The
great economic questions of the day
are a study we'll worth time and at
tention. No man can vote or act in
diligently without knowledge OF
these subjects. One issue may well
be worth the price of the paper alone.

The New York Times is for free
trade. and of course is for Cleveland.
With all the over zeal of a convert il
is more bitter than most other Dem
ocratic journals, 1t says p"General
Harrison is a citizen of the Republic,
who has done worthily such share of
public work as has devolyed upon
him. He was a brave soldier. AT
Resaca and at Peach Tree Creek he
won no meagre title to military re-
nown. There, if nowhere else, he
showed himself worthy of His grand
sire. In civil life the record of his
service is confined to the faithful per
Torrance of duties of minor office
in Indiana, and one term in the
United States Senate. The eye of
curiosity will search the pages of the
Record in vain for any evidence that
Senator Harrison distinguished HIM
self. 1t is an incon8picuous chrOni-
Gle, yet we find him in all instances
acting with sincerity and for the pub
lie interest. His Republican sup
porters will avoid the subject of his
eloquence lest embarrassing refer
ence be made to his too sparing use
of that noble gift. Altogether it is an
entirely respectable nomination."

We shall endeavor to have prompt
news from every part of the county.
We are making arrangements to Sc
cure articles ofinterest on many ques-
lions affecting the welfare of the
county, such as education, agricul-
ture, mining, stock growing. fruit
raising, &C., from practical men and
citizens OF our own county. We must
have faith in ourselves, and in the
future of our county. The future of
Garrett county is simply what we
choose to make it, Let each citizen
firmly resolve to add his mite to the
prosperity of the county. A little of
the enthusiasm of the great West,
where the "boom" is eyer present,
and where the "Hustier" is native
and to the manor born, would be
conducive to every section of our
county. Stake out more land in
town lots, offer them cheap, make
inducements of all kinds and encour-
age newcomers to settle down. Don't
be too exclusive. Go to work. Help
your neighbors do the same. Give
the hearty grasp of welcome to the
stranger, and don't be "clanish."
for the REPUBLICAN, send
it an advertisement of your business
and go in to win, and give the young
man a chance.

The Merits of Vestibuled Trains.

The chief merit claimed for the
Vestibuled appliance is that it effect
ually prevents telescOping of cars in
case of collision, and the second great
advantage lies in the fact that the
new device entirely overcOmes the
sWaying motion impaired to ordi-
nary trains when rounding curves
at high speed. The Limited EX-
press running via B. & O. r. r. be-
tween Philadelphia and Chicago, is
composed entirely of Vestibuled cars,
the Baggage Cars, Day Coaches,
Dining Car and Pullman Sleepers all
being fitted up with Pullman's Pat
ent Vestibules.
All cars in the train are heated by
steam drawn from the locomotive.
Porters are in attendance in the Day
Coaches as well as in the Sleepers, to
look after the wants of passengers.
The entire train runs through with
out change between Philadelphia and
Chicago via Washington and Balti-
more, and no extra fare is exacted
from passengers holding tickets of
any class.
The B. & 0. Vestibuled limited
leaves Oakland at 4.J6 P. NJ. daily for
Chicago and at lila A. NJ. daily for
Washington, Baltimore and Phila-
delphia.
