Rear Presidential Candidate Dewey

Rear Presidential Candidate Dewey
is preparing to cast anchor for the
summer in the handsome little cot
tage long occupied by his wife in her
widowhood. 1t is only four miles out
of Washington, and not far from Red
Top, the home OF Grover I. Its name
is Beauvoir. 1t hath a winsome sound
and the American people will hardly
call him from his retreat this year.
"My arms" said Auginaldo, "are in
Bayombang; my trunk is in Pandan-
go. | cannot show my hand and !

on the intelligent correspondent cabled
his paper that the Filipino leader was
in four places at once. 1t is said that
this sly and treacherous fighter is the
only rival OF Paderewski when it comes
to executing huently" upon piano
Possibly he is not so much OF a savage
after all.

FOR RAISING A BILL.
Prof. and rlrs. Ira r. Groves, of Mt.
Lake Park, Arrested by a U. S.
Tar rShaI
ON A VERY SERIOUS CHARGE.
Both Parties Were Taken to Cumberland
Where They Were Arraigned Before
Commissioner Thomas j. Anderson
Groves Held, His Wife Released.

AS sequel to the arrest of Isaac
Thorn one day last week on the
charge of passing raised 81 silver
certificate to the denomination of
$5, Prof. and Mrs. Ira F. Groves were
on Saturday evening last arrested on
warrant sworn out by Secret
Service Agent Elliot before Commits
sioner Thomas j. Anderson, of Cum
berland, where the parties were taken
the same evening and lodged in Jail
for hearing on Monday.
Groves and his wife were placed
under arrest by Deputy Marshal
Newman. The warrant charged
them jointly with having raised the
money and at the hearing on Monday
morning before Commissioner Ander-
son it developed that Groves had
presented the raised bill at the ticket
office of the B. g. o. R. r. at Mcun-
tain Lake Park and asked for a ticket
to Grafton, he claiming to be acting
as agent for Thorn. The testimony
further went on to show that Thorn
was in the act of presenting a good
SIS bill when he was intercepted by
Groves who substituted the spurious
bill without his (Thorn's) knowl-
edge. Thorn is an unsophisticated
country boy and came to this section
to work on the Jamison farm near
the Park, from the vicinity of Mays
vile, w. Va, where it is claimed very
little paper money is in circulation.
Thorn, who is still prisoner in the
Jail here upon the charge of passing
the bill, was taken down to Cumber-
land by Deputy Sheriff Wiley, accom-
panied by States Attorney Thayer,
where he appeared against Groves
and his wife and told substantially
the same story as that produced in
the preliminary hearing before JUS
tiec Gonder when he was arraigned
at the time of his arrest.
In all there were fourteen witnesses
examined, two of whom were sum
moned by the defense, and upon the
testimony produced before the Com
missioner he felt warranted in hold
ing Groves for the United States
Grand Jury, which will soon convene
in Baltimore. There being no evil
dence against his wife Mrs. Groves
was discharged from custody and
returned to Mountain Lake Park on
Monday evening, where she conducts
a millinery establishment. Groves
was taken to the Baltimore City iail
Monday evening where he will be
held pending the finding of the
United States Court. For some years
past Groves has been a resident of
this county where he taught singing
schools. A few months ago he mar
ried Mrs. Groves who was then Mrs.
Belle Freeland.

For an Editor to Recommend Patent Med
icines.
From Sylvan Valley News, Brevard,
N. C.
1t may be a question whether the
editor of newspaper has the right
to publicly recommend any of the
various proprietary medicines which
flood the market, yet as preventive
of suffering we feel it duty to say q
good word for Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. We
have known and used this medicine
in our family for twenty years and
have alwas found it reliable. In many
cases dose of this medicine would
save hours of suffering while physi-
clan is awaited. We do not believe in
depending implicitly on any medi-
cine for a cure, but we do believe that
if a bottle of Chamberlain Diarrhoea
Remedy were kept on hand and ad-
ministered at the inception of an at
tack much suffering might be avoided
and in very many cases the presence
of a physician would not be required.
At least this has been our expeience
for the past twenty years: For sale

PRIZES AWARDED.
The Oakland Club at Its Monthly Meeting
Friday Night Distributes Prizes to
Residents of Oakland.

| The Oakland Club at Its Monthly Meetin:
Friday Night Distributes Prizes to
Residents of Oakland.
The monthly meeting of the Oak
land Club, the organization of bust
ness men and residents of Oakland
which has for it's object the advance
ment of Oakland in particular and
Garrett county in general, held its
regular monthly meeting in its rooms
on Friday night of last week which
was largely attended.
The committee on improvements
submitted it's report and awarded
prizes for the best kept premises. A
number of the citizens made efforts
to secure the prizes with the result
that to-day Oakland looks neater and
better kept than for years past. The
committee fo, nd it hard matter to
decide who were entitled to the
awards, but the result of the com
mittee's work is highly gratifying to
the community in general. The
report follows:
The Committe on Improvement of
the Oakland Club, after having care
fully visited the different parts of our
town and having in view the very
difficult task assigned us by the Club,
have decided on the following awards
for greatest Improvements. ETC.:
1of
baugh.
End prize, $500, T. A. Thayer.
3rd prize, $500, John Il. Sincell.
The award of this third prize has
been difficult matter for the Com
mittee to determine as there were
so many yards, walks, etc, in the town
that seemed to the committee nearly,
if not quite equal, to the one award
ed this prize.
The fourth prize we do not think
is deserved by any block or square of
roadway and sidewalk as we do not
think that the children of any block
or square have attempted to compete
for it.
The following property holders we
desire especially to commend as hav-
ing nicely kept yards, walks, ETC.:
William Fl. Hagans, Mrs. d. H. Loar,
Mrs. John Dunham, R. l. Anderson,
Mrs. s. E. Bolden, G.. Feltv, Mr..
Mealy, Mrs. Matte Townshend,
Arthur Townshend, The Rectory, g..
D. White, G. o. Miller, Jos. Helbig,
J. o. Cleveland, Mrs. d. yelling,
George Bosley, Arthur Fraley, d. M.
Dixon, James Leathers, Mrs. Banks,
Mrs. James Truly, G. A. Shirer, Mrs.
Lowenstine, J. D. Hamill and G. s..
Davis.
There are also many others which
show special care and attention. We
also find the streets and alleys in
much better condition and the side
walks improved to a much greater
extent than heretofore. Your Com
mittee would recommend that the
system of awarding prizes be con-
tinued for the coming year.

When Bryan fills the White House chair,
And rules our mighty nation,
Good people all may hope to share
In blessings of imitation;
The busy mints will run all day,
And dollars will be handy
Then work viii be but idle play
For Yankee Doodle Dandy.
When Bryan fills the White House chair
(Now mark the words l utter,)
No working man will have to fare
On bacon, bread and butter;
For every one will have a chance
To scoop the dollars handy,
And then the cooks will come from France
For Yankee Doodle Dandy.
When Bryan fills the White House chair,
Good-by to days of labor,
The money king will have to share
And divy with his neighboT;
The wicked trusts will busted be
When money is so handy,
And everything will then be free
For Yankee Doodle Dandy.
When Bryan fills the White House chair
And knocks expansion skyward,
What matters, then, if everywhere
Our nation is by-word;
While Aguinaldo rules the roost
With everything so handy,
And bloody boxers get boost
From Yankee Doodle Dandy.
When Bryan fills the White House chair,
Gone gone is all our glory;
George Dewey then will be nowhere
Except in song and story.
No army, then, will take the field;
No fighting ship-so handy
To meet our foes and make them yield
To Yankee Doodle Dandy.

Dr0ach the lunch counter with fear.
They do this the first time, but
"bouleverse" by the novel experience
of eating without being charged for
the napkin, the sugar, the plate, the
service, corn soup, corn fritters, corn
cakes, and syrup, all in long
itemized bill, la Francais, they
come again and again until the man
aging American (who by the way is
born diplomat and speaks French)
explains that the kitchen is not
intended for regular and perma-
nent free boarding house. Corn in
any form is a somewhat heating diet,
and when a French woman after eat
ing heartily of hot cakes and syrup
asked for something to drink, the
good colored woman from New
Orleans, who stands behind the
counter and speaks French with the
best of them, poured her a glass of
water. She tasted it under the
impression that it was corn wine and
said it bit her tongue. Some Of her
companions then slipped the water
and all agreed that it had curious
taste and bit their tongues. There
was nothing peculiar about the
water except that it was ice cold.
This story will appear improbable to
the American cold water drinkers,
but there is not word of exaggera-
tion in it. A rural Frenchman after
his first corn meal said: when | tell
them at home l have eaten corn, they
will lot believe me; we feed it only to
beasts" The manager showed me a
letter from a clubman at Lyons,
which read: Monsieur Director,
please send me five or ten francs
worth of corn cakes, G. o. D." The
manager replied that in order to be
appreciated, the corn cakes must be
served hot, and if he would do him
the honor to call at the Annex, in
Paris, he would furnish them free.
The greatest patronage Of the corn
bread kitchen comes from Americans
in Paris, who do not need conversion.
There are many fakes in Paris, but
this is the most serio-comical and ex-
pensive of all Of them.

have yet to know of single instance
where combines and trusts hurt the
masses or permanently raised the
price of any product. | am a thous-
and times more willing to deal with
the trusts and combines and purchase
their products than am to put my
money into their institutions and i'm
peril my holdings, concious of their
want of stability and fearing their
final downfall.
OF course these great combinations
affect legislation, if they do not con-
troll it in many instances, but while
they may procure legislation in their
own interest, yet they have one eye
upon the public sentiment all the
time, concious that they can go just
SO far and no farther. Here and there
they have shut down a mandatory
or closed up an institution and affect
ed some individuals, but we are not
looking from that standpoint. When
we look at the 100000 of our popu-
lation, we say they are only procur-
ing cheaper and buying for less mon
ey these products than they could
have done under other circumstanc-
es.
With the final disintegration of
trusts and combines-which will in
evitably come when financial disaster
and shrinkage of values shall come
of course, the surplus of their product
will be thrown upon the market, and
only the stockholders in these trusts
and combines will suffer. AS sure as
the sun shines, whenever any institu-
tion becomes unwieldy because of its
size and bulk, it will finally fall of its
own weight.
am an expansionist, and l believe
that one of the causes of the stringen-
cy and shrinkage of values in this
country is because we have not gone
out over the seas with our products
as we should have done. While there
is a demand for our products of the
farm and manufs ctory of this country
there will always be plenty of money;
but when wheat and corn and cotton
and all kinds of manufacturers are a
drug on the market, and no demand
for them, then we have stringency
and hard times. But when the high
ways over the seas shall be laden with
our products into foreign countries,
and the gold is brought back in the
ships, then we shall flourish perennial
ly. These great combinations are the
only powers in this country that can
do this thing foI us. A negro and an
old mule can make corn and cotton;
a fellow with two hundred dollar
saw mill can make lumber; but only
aggregations of wealth can build ships
and open markets in foreign lands

his guests away and knows how to
make 'em feel comfortable. [ believe
