Not seeing any items from this lit
tie village l will now say hurrah for
Mckinley, who stands by the people.
A very nice home wedding took
place at the residence of Mr.. and Mrs.
I. W. Frost. The contracting parties
were Rev. Eugene Weaver, former
pastor of this place but now of
Charleston, W. Va, and Miss Jennie
Turner. Their many friends wish
them happy and prosperous life.
Messrs. w. S. and Bruce Blocher, of
Chicago, came home to attend their
mothers funeral.
Our school is progressing very nice

Althea Otto, of New Germany, with
an enrolment of 81 scholars.
Mr.. William Turner was welcome
guest at the residence of Mr.. John j.
Michael.
Mr.. and Mrs. Joshua Turner gave a

their daughters marriage, with quite
a number present.

to work soon.
Charles Hetz is building an addition

William Turner expects to start for
California in two weeks.
The pastor, Rev. Bedford, is hold

but the weather has been very un-
favorable the past week.
Charles Layman was the guest of

The farmers are about done husk-
ing corn and are doing their fall
plowing now.
burst Bros. are pulling stumps for
Mr.. Turner.
There is some talk of a telephone
line being erected between Frostburg
and Grantsville.
We are sorry to hear that the school
known as the Turner school is not
started yet. 1t is too bad the chill
dren must be deprived of a school.
We think the patrons should urge
this along.

themselves to dishonor as well as to
defeat.
There was promise of better
things at Kansas City, when Mr..
Bryan insisted upon a specific reaffir-
nation of the free silver plank as
prerequisite to his acceptance of the
nomination. He was wrong, but he
seemed sincere and straightforward
The fall began with his speech of ac-
ceptance, with its shirking of the real
issues and its specious attempt to
foist spurious issues into their places.
Thenceforth the note of evasion and
deceit ran through the campaign
Nor was that all Finding the Re-
publicans ever ready to meet him on
the false issues he had raised, Mr..
Bryan half abandoned them and put
his main and final reliance on an eff
fort to arouse class antagonisms. In
this he was eagerly sustained by his
chief lieutenant, Mr.. Croker, and by
the other active managers of his cam
paign. The forged Odell letter, the
invented Cleveland interview, the vile
insinuations made by Anarchy"
Altgeld against honorable men, Mr..
Croker's direct Indictment to vio-
lence at the polls and his coarse in
suits to the citizens of New York, the
vicious attempt to intimidate voters
by the circulation of menacing letters,
and finally the eliminating effort to
array the police against the enforce
ment of laval these and many
other similar things stamped the
Bryan-Croker campaign as an i'm
moral and semi-criminal thing.
This is not a pleasant record to
make in American political annals.
1t would be far more agreeable to set
down and to cherish feelings of re-
spect for sincere and manly oppon-
ents; or, at worst, to pass by the evil
features of a campaign in charitable
silence. But truth, patriotism and
that spirit which produces self respect
and respect of others forbid even a
tacit condonation of the iniquities of
the Bryanite campaign. Mr.. Bryan,
Mr.. Croker and their confederates
sought victory by base means. They
have failed. And in failing they have
involved themselves not only in the
defeat which their more reputable
predecessors often suffered, but also
in such lasting discredit as their sue
cessors will do we'll to avoid.

Baltimore American.
The day after the election few of
Bryan's Maryland supporters, sore
over their defeat, revived discussion
of scheme to disfranchise the litter
ate voters of the state by inserting an
educational qualification in the pres
ent election law. The sbject is still
under discussion in certain quarters,
but it is not likely that it will go
much further than the discussion
stage, or that any serious effort will
be made by any party to disfranchise
any voters on account of inability to
read or write. During the last session
of the legislature-a Democratic body
the subject was broached, and
bill to carry the scheme into effect
was drafted, but it went no further,
the very fathers of it being afraid of
results that may do more injury to
their own party than to their oppon-
ents. Commenting upon the measure
at that time, the american said:

Death of Mrs. Henry BlOcher.

Died, at her home in District No. 8,
Sunday morning, November 4, 1900,
Mrs. Selma Blocher nee CLANCY, wife
of Henry Blocher, aged 5S years, 4
months and days. She was taken
sick with rheumatism about three
weeks ago and gradually declined un-
til the end came Sunday morning.
The deceased lady was born about
one mile west of Frostburg, July 1st,
1S42, and married Henry Blocher Jan
uary "a, 1864. Seven children were
born to them of whom one (Mariam)
is dead. The six living children are
Bradford, James w, and Harry M. of
Garrett county, Winfield Scott and
Bruce, of Chicago, and one daughter,
Miss Emma, who resides at home.
Besides these children and her hus-
band she is survived by two brothers
and two sisters. The brothers are
Messrs. John and Thomas Chaney, of
Avilton, and the sisters Mrs. George
Grove, of Garrett county, and Mrs.
Sarah Mullen, of Piedmont, w. Va.
Mrs. Blocher was a true woman in
every sense of the word, being sin
cere Christian, an affectionate wife
and mother and a good neighbor.
Owing to her sunny and genial dispo-
sition she made hosts of friends, and
by her sterling and upright qualities
she always retained them. Her great
est care was always her home and
family and their welfare her highest
aim.
The funeral took place Tuesday af-
ternoon at 9 o'clock from the family
residence. The house was crowded
with friends to pay a last sad token
of respect to their deceased friend.
Rev. E. G. Bedford, Methodist minis
ter of Grantsville, preached the fun
eral sermon and spoke in most inn
pressive manner to the family and
friends gathered. The remains were
inferred in the Blocher cemetery in
sight of the homestead where she
spent thirty-six years. The pall-bear-
ers were Messrs. John w. Saurbaugh,
Frostburg; Peter Pope, Joshua Turn
er, Jacob Wilson, Thomas Ravens
croft and Jacob Minnick, of Garrett
county. Mr.. Blocher and family have
the sincere sympathy of their many
friends and neighbors in their sad
| bereavement.

Brave EXPLORERS

Like Stanley and Livingtone found it
harder to overcome Malaria, Fever
and Ague and Typhoid disease germs
than savage rannibals; but thousands
have found that Electric Bitters is a
wonderful cure for all malarial dis
eases. If you have chills with fever,
aches in back of neck and head and
tired, worn-out feeling, a trial will
convince you of their merit. w. A.
Null, of Webb, ILL.,, writes; "My chill
dren suffered for more than a year
with chills and fever; then two bot
ties of Electric Bitters cured them"

GARRETT'S BIG VOTE.
Senator RavenscrOft Explains Why the
County Turned in Large Republican
Majority,

Majority.
Yesterdays Baltimore Herald
State Senator Ravenscroft, of Gar
rett, was in the city yesterday on
business. He was congratulated up
on the large Republican majority re-
turned by his county.
81 expected fully 800 plurality"
said he, 'but we did even better.
There is an Independent vote of about
200 in Garret which did not include
in my estimates, and which was cast
solidly for the Republican ticket. The
Republican vote is continually grow
ing in Garrett because of the influx
from Pennsylvania of men employed
in the lumber camps. These new
voters are all Republicans. The same
conditions prevail in West Virginia,
where the Republicans are also gain
ing strength. In camps employing 40
to 30 men it was nothing unusual to
find seven-eights of them Republi-
cans. Sometimes there was not a
Democrat in the lot. We carried every
district in the county except John
sons, which is the Democratic strong
hold, and had Mr.. Finzel not been ill
| think we would have carried that,
too. Accident, in which live, also
went Democratic heretofore. This
time the Republicans captured it,

company having large interests in
Cape Nome, and proposes to revisit
the gold fields next May.

Two weeks ago according to the
Journal the Republicans would buy
their majority in Garrett county.
That was prior to the election. Last
week the Journal said that the un-
satisfactory appointments made by
Governor Smith caused the increased
majority. Isn't it a fact that the
management of the Democratic cam
paign was taken out of the hands of
the committee and Mr.. g. S. Hamill
assumed control of everything? Could
this not have been an important fact
or in making the Republican major
ity so large. In any event Mr.. Ham
i'll ran behind his ticket in the county
as will be shown by the returns.

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1900.

The county commissioners of Fred
erick have started crusade against
the constables who are charged with
getting up petty cases for the purpose
of extracting fees from the county.
One of the commissioners said; "It
is to be regretted that the last Legis-
lature did not pass a measure giving
the board power to suspend consta-
bles who work up small and insight
ficant cases which the grand jury will
not even entertain"

Defeat With DishOnor.

1t is pleasant and not infrequently
suitable to speak kindly of a yam
quished foe. 1t has more than once
in recent years been the privilege of
Republicans to pay such a tribute to
their adversaries. 1t is an unwel-
come feature of the present case that
that privilege is denied. By their
own acts the Bryanite managers, in
Guiding Mr.. Bryan, have debarred
themselves from the sympathy and
respect of good citizens and doomed

"Militarism" in Porto Rico.

The announcement that all the
American troops in Porto Rico except
one battalion of infantry and two
batteries of artillery are to be with
drawn is most effective object lesson
on "militarism' and imperialism"
The remainder of the islands garri
son is to consist of Porto Rican ma
tive regiment of $50 men, larger
number than that of the American
regulars who will remain there. 1t is
not reasonable to suppose that the re-
duction of the regular forces in Porto
Rico to such an insignificant figure
would be permitted if there was any
doubt as to the attitude OF the bulk
of the people of the island toward the
authority of the United States. The
late elections in the island proved
most conclusively that the majority
of the people were contented with
American rule and rapidly learning
to appreciate its benefits.
There are nearly 100000 inhabit-
ants of Porto Rico, and although it is
but two years since the island was
forcibly annexed, we are now sabout
to garrison it with about 700 regular
and $50 native troops. In view of
this fact the alleged dangers to the
liberties of the people of the United
States in the so-called policy of mil
itarism, now that the election is
over, it is not likely to deprive any
sane person of moments peace OF
mind. Pittsburg Times.

DISCIPLES OF GALHN TALK.
MUCH POW-POW ON SANITARY
SITUATION.
Rather Drastic Measures Advocated by
Some of Leading Medicos-Water and
Other Matters.

There was a very interesting mad i'm
portant meeting of the Medical AssO-
citation Saturday evening. Though notn-
ing was accomplished farther than the
appointment of a committee to confer
with the Board Of Health on sanitary
matters, there was a great deal of dis
cussion and unity on several vital mat
ters was disclosed.
President c. b. Cooper, M. D., opened
the meeting with a talk on sanitary
matters in general and the duties Of
the hour. He treated the infected dis
trict, filtration of water, sewerage and
several other topics.
DR.. Alvarez drew attention to the nee
essity of having ample water for thor
oughly flushing the sewers.
DR.. Emerson referred to the author
ity of the Board to destroy buildings
and property.
DR. TAYLOR thought salt water could
be used for flushing sewers but should
not be used on the streets, on account
of the harm to eyes and lungs and for
other reasons
Dr. Hodgins said that proper filtra-
ton of water was one of the most i'm
portant things to deal with. The in
crease i'm the number of fever cases was
traceable directly to this.
Dr. Scaparone suggested that all
cases of fever be reported to the Board
of Health and investigated, as he be-
lieved some of them were plague.
DR.. Day said the physicians had
worked four years to bring about i'm
provements in the sanitary condition
of the town, but that, farther than a
sewerage system under way, nothing
had been accomplished. Now that the
community was aroused the physicians
should present united front on perm
anent sanitary Improvements. If the
Council of State had not authority to
act in such matters at this time, some
other way of meeting the situation
should be devised.
Dr. Hoffman considered the infected
district the most filthy he had ever seen
in his life in any city.
DR.. Cleveland urged hurry in perfect
ing the sewerage system and the estab-
lishment of public baths.
DR.. Raymond advocated the complete
wiping out of Chinatown and the build
ing of another Chinatown in a locality
farther removed from the business CEN
ter.
DR.. Alvarez urged the construction
of a movable disinfecting plant to be
used for all contagious ailments, in
clu1ing consumption.
The matter of building houses with
floors upon the ground was again
brought up. and the practice was con-
demned from all parts of the room. 1t
was decided to recommend to the Board
of Health to forbid such buildings, now
going up and planned.
Another meeting, to hear the report
of the committee, will be held next Sat
urday evening.

MAUI WANTS WATER.
Citizens Demand Water Works as
Proper Sanitary Measure.


KAHULUI, January GA meeting of
the Maui Citizens Health Committee
was held here yesterday. W. j. Lowrie
presided and George Hons was secre-
tary. The following resolutions were
adopted:
whereas the last Legislature of the
Republic of Hawaii has appropriated
the sum of $4,000 for the establishing
of a system of water works for Wal
luku and Kahului on the Island of
Maui, and
Whereas the site for a reservoir in
the valley of lao and the necessary
rights of way for such purposes have
been acquired, and
Whereas at the present time the ma
jority of residents of the town of Wal
luku are compelled to use water for
drinking and household purposes from
open bitches running through said
town Of Waikiki, and
Whereas at the present time no fresh
water for drinking and household pur-
poses can be obtained in the town of
Kahului except such water as may be
carried in barrels from bitches in Wal
lulSu to said Kahului, and
Whereas it is the unanimous sense of
this meeting that such existing condi-
lions are a dangerous menace to the
health and lives of the residents of
Waikiki and Kahului, therefore;
Be it Resolved, That the Minister of
Interior be requested to without fur
Their delay proceed to construct and es-
tablish said water works.
