as the gubernatorial nominees were
named.
In 1895 the independent voters sup
ported Lloyd Lowndes because they
believed that through him better
government would be given to the
State. He stood that year for certain
things desirable in State government,
and upon platform which pledged
both himself and his party to the
performance of those things. Since
he was inducted into office he has
demonstrated beyond the question of
a doubt that those promises were not
made merely for the purpose of at
tracing the support of the independ-
ent class, but with the full intention
of carrying them into effect if the op-
portunity was offered. The proof Of
this assertion is found in the fact that
each and every promise made in 1895
by the Republicans has been enacted
into a law, passed by Republican leg
islatures and signed by Governor
Lowndes. Not only has this been
done, but Governor Lowndes has
shown this class of voters that with
him public Office is public trust, to
be administered in the interests of
the entire State. His appointments
have been unusually excellent, and
as a result of his administration the
affairs of the State are in heretofore
unknown state of excellence.
This year the propositions submit
ted to the independent class of voters
are of equal importance with those
confronting them in 1895. In the first
place. the new standard established
by the Republicans is to be main
tained. In the second place, certain
other things desired by this indie
pendent class-police reorganization
in Baltimore, for instance, are pro-
posed. The election of Lloyd
Lowndes this fall means that the first
| proposition will be carried out, and,
as for the second, the pledges made
by the Republican State Convention
are of far more binding force than
the pledges made by the convention
of the Democrats, and the supple
mentary promises made by the Dem
| ocratic candidates. In addition to
these two propositions, the independ-
ent voters have the specific pledge Of
| the Republicans in the event of their
election, to reduce the State tax rate
to sixteen cents and wipe out the
State debt during the next four years.
This last proposition brings this class
face to face with a question affecting
| the material welfare of the State, and
of equal Importance with the propos-
| ed reforms in our public institutions.
| Opposed to this specific pledge of the
Republicans is a general declaration
| by the Democrats that the State tax
rate should be reduced, without any
| specific declaration as to manner or
tho amount 9th -.~,l,- o4; c--.1.,

Vaccination.

DR.. W. H. Ravenscraft, the health
officer for Garrett county, a few days
ago wrote DR.. John S. Fulton, the
Secretary of the State Board of
Health, asking if it were possible to
exempt any from the law requiring
vaccination before entering the pub
lie schools, and in reply DR.. Fulton,
under date of Oct. 3rd, says:
DR.. W. H. RAvENsCRAFT,
Health Officer,
Oakland, Md.
DEAR DOCTOR:-That law is on the
statute books of Maryland for the
excellent purpose of keeping small
pox out of the State. Maryland's s
comparative immunity last winter,
while neighboring states suffered
heavily, was due chiefly to the opera
tion of the law. Vaccination is bet
ter done in advance of an invasion of
smallpox. There is no law in this
State to compel children to go to
school, but il they go they must sub
nit to this trifling inconvenience as
part payment for public school priv
lleSeS. we UolleNo Ulle TeSuldUlOu Is
necessary at all times, especially so at
this time, and nowhere more especi-
ally necessary than in Garrett county
the part of the State nearest to the
infected region of Pennsylvania. We
have no right to exempt any person
or persons from the operation of the
law, even if we did not think that
vaccination is important at this time
Nor can we agree to grant parents
more time to get their children vacci
mated, unless there is some difficulty
about the supply of virus, or other
hindrance beyond the control of par,
ents and officials. The penalty falls
upon teachers for violation of the
law. If there is any doubt that the
law is well carried out, we shall have
to cause an inspection of the schools
to be made, though we should be
very sorry to be obliged to exact a
penalty from teacher.
Yours very truly,
JOHN S. FULTON, Secretary

What Hicks Predicts.


Having predicted the weather cor
rectly for the first three days in Octo-
Der, Hicks predictions for the rest
of the month are as follows:
1.-THE second regular storm period
for October is from Sth to 12th. This
period will break up, low barometer,
high temperature and storms of rain,
wind and thunder, with cold sweep
ing gales from the northwest. A
decided change to warmer will set in
in ON the 18th, Moon being on clestial
equator and at perigee on that day.
1.-The barometer will fall rapidly at
the same time, resulting first in cleo
trical storms, then changing to cold
rains, with probable sleet and snow
northward, from the 18th to the 18th.
A sharp cold wave with frost and
freezing will bring up the rear of
these disturbances, change to colder
with probable sleet and snow begin
ming early in the period westward,
following up closely as storm centers
pass eastward.
"About the Goth to 23rd change
to warmer, with general return to
storm conditions will pass from west
to east over the country. The wind
currents will likely be warm and
southerly during most of this period,
but change to much colder will follow
from about the 23rd to Goth.
"a reactionary disturbance is cen
trail on the Goth and 27th. This will
bring higher temperature, falling
barometer and more rain or snow.
These disturbances will most likely
be protracted until the Goth, on and
about which date thunder storms
will occur, ending suddenly in sweep
ing winds from the northwest, high
barometer and cold wave"

Lowndes and the IndeDendents.

The assertion is being freely made
that the independent voters of the
state are waiting until the nomina-
tions for the legislation are made be-
fore defining their position. While it
is true, in a measure, that these NOM
nations are of Importance, it is hard
to understand why the support of a
class of voters supposed to be very
large should hinge solely upon them.
There are many potent reasons which
should have prompted this class to
define it's position long ago, or as soon

Republicans during the last four
years, together with the facts that
the platform declarations of that
party are as specific this year as that,
and the denomination of the man who
has seen to it that former pledges
were redeemed, there can be no az
gument as to the position the indie
pendent class of voters should take
this year. Every Independent who
supported Lowndes in 1895, believing
then that he was best fitted to bring
the desirable sort of government to
the State, is morally bound to support
him again this year. He has done as
he promised in 1895, and such per-
formance merits a continuation of
contidence,i especially when coupled
with questions of equal Importance
on which the party policy is clearly
defined and the redemption of pledg-
es guaranteed. Lowndes stands to-
day as he stood in 1S95-for good
government in Maryland. His cleo
tion will insure such government to
the State, and, while due Importance
should be given the matter of legisla-
tive nominations, the support of
the independents should go to
Lowndes again this year. For, as
was said when Mr.. Smith was nomi-
mated, There is no more reason for
his election this year than there was
for Mr.. Hurst's in 1885,

he slipped from the ladder on which
he was standing and fell a con-
siderable distance to the ground. He
was carried to his home nearby and
upon an examination being made by
DR.. NJ. c. Hinebaugh, the attending
physician, it was found that he had
suffered very serious injuries. Be-
sides number of ribs and his shoul-
der being broken he also suffered
internally. At times he regained
consciousness for few minutes. His
death occurred yesterday afternoon
about o'clock. He leaves a wife
and a number of children in poor
circumstances. He was about fifty
years of age and a member Of the NJ.

yet been made for his funeral but it

BUYING NEW ENTERPRISES.

The Youngstown Telegram crlti-
cises the business men Of its city
because they are $50 conservative
and suspicious" In respect to offer
ing bonuses to manufacturing capital
to locate Mt Youngstown, Incident
ally u nice compliment is paid to
Akron's business men.
"New industries are knocking at
our doors continually, Says tho Tele-
gram, "but our citizens are too sus-
picious or too conservative to take
them In. Not very long ago u con-
cern manufacturing tools wanted to
locate here. All they asked of the
citizens was contribution of $4,000
to move their plant here. But
our people refused to pay the bonus
and this mandatory, employing at
least 100 skilled workmen, did not
change its location, | could men

same kind.
"Within the past few weeks we

things like Akron does"
Perhaps Youngstown's failure to
get new industrial enterprises is due
not 30 much to her business men as
to the city. Akron's business men
succeed in locating new industries
here because they can offer low tax
alton, unsurpassed transportation
facilities and all the many other
advantages that accrue to growing

Akron's Chamber Of Commerce to
offer bonuses to capital to invest
here, for usually the concerns that
demand and receive the largest
benefits are the first to fly the town
for other locations and bonuses
after the original beneflce is

Akron locates new industrial
capital here exclusively on her
merits. The people have no reason
to complain of the results of this
policy, for the aggregated capital Of
the new enterprises that came to
Akron last year was nearly million.
