ereigns, should take advantage of any

The men who opened and have Gull

upon their properties reap some of
the rewards for their sacrifices and

PROFESSIONALLY this section of Gar
rett county is rich in mineral. The
time of development is near at hand.
The voice of the promoter and specu-
lator is heard in the land. The spirit
OF the age, the trend of the times and
the movements of modern society is
toward organization and concentra-
ton The farmer should take advan-
tage of all means and methods to bet

and get fair share of the wealth he
produces. For years we have urged
our people to prepare for cooperative
effort in handling their products and
getting supplies. Experience and OBJ
servation has convinced us that it is
wisdom and good business sense to
trust and patronize our friends and
nelghbors rather than the stranger
and adventurer.
In closing this communication we
wish to commend the courage, candor
and capacity of our local press. Our
county papers are honestly and ably
conducted. They are doing much to
improve our people and advance the
interest of the county and should be
more generously patronized. Remem-
Der they are recording the history we
are making. On the pages of their

been suggested from time to time, so,
that the number of ballots correctly
marked by illiterates will be insignifi-
cant as compared with the number of
accurate ballots cast by them at the
election last year and again this year.
1t is extremely doubtful however, if
the Democrats will be able to make
the proposed changes even it they
should control both branches of the
legislature two years hence. During
the last session, with a majority of
eight in the Senate, they were unable
OR, If able they were reluctant-to
force through that body bill adding
more complicated features to the bal
lot. In the House they were of course,
tied up by the us-Republican
combination, which effectually barred
all legislation not approved by thst
alliance of Republicans and handful
of Democrats.
1t is doubtful if the Democrats ill
be more successful in succeeding leg
islative bodies than in the last, even
admitting their control. Opposition
to the law within the party is con-
stantly growing, and it may be a
question if the leaders, even if so dis
posed, can prevent the repeal of the
present law.
From Southern Maryland come re-
ports that Democrats of that section
are thoroughly Disguised with the
election law in its present shape.
Another source of disappointment
to the Democrats is the unfavorable
comparison between the Democratic
vote as revealed at the registration
by party utilization figures and that
polled on election day.
An examination of the vote by
wards in Baltimore with relation to
the party utilization indicates that
either there was a change of political
faith by Democrats or that over rs
per cent. of those who declined to
state their politics when registering
must have cast Republican ballots.

Joseph X. Morgan, Employed at the Tan
merry, Net a Sudden Death.
Joseph R. Morgan, employed at the
Commonwealth tannery at Hutton,
was almost instantly killed on Satur-
day afternoon by being caught be-
tween a car loaded with bark''and the
framework of building covering the
scales at the plant.
The man was on top of the car at
the brake wheel as it was moving
down the grade toward the scales
when he was warned of the danger he
was in. He scrambled down to the
side of the car but the space being too
narrow to admit his body between
the side of the car and the framework
of the scale house he was caught and
squeezed so badly that he died short
ly afterward. He was married and
resided at Corinth where he leaves a
wife and two children of tender years.

DIR. c. j. Fazenbaker, of Swanton, Arrested
for Shooting at Truman Mosser.
DR.. G. j. Fazenbaker, a practicing
physician at Swapton, who has earn
ed the title of the "scrapping Doctor
by reason of his many fights of more
or less serious consequences, was ar
rested Monday by Sheriff Maffett at
his home in Swanton upon a warrant
sworn out before Justice Gender by
Truman Mosser charging him with
shooting with intent to murder. The
Sheriff arrived here the same morning
with his prisoner and a preliminary
hearing took place at the office of the
Justice when the doctor gave bond
for his appearance before the March
term of the Circuit Court to answer
the charge, P. M. Stemple, Esq, of
Frankville, being his bondsman.
At the hearing it developed that
Mosser and the Doctor had become
involved in quarrel some days pre-
vious and that on Saturday the two
men met ON the street at Swanton
when Mosser began to throw stones
at the doctor who retreated into his
house and arming himself with a re-
volver appeared and began firing at
Mosser and only desisted after having
emptied his weapon and without in
flicting any wounds.
After the hearing a warrant was
sworn out for the arrest of Mosser
who was charged by DR.. Fazenbaker
with making an assault upon him.
Mosser gave bond for his appearance
here tomorrow when the case will be
heard by Justice Gender

With the holidays nearing the mat
ter of securing eggs is becoming more
and more of problem. There are
practically no eggs in the city, and
what few there are are bringing any
where from 20 to 30 cents per dozen.
Eggs are unusually scarce for this
time of the year, and as this has been
exceptionally mild weather and the
hens have had plenty of food of all
sorts that is calculated to induce them
to lay, it is difficult to trace the pau
city of the chen fruit" market. Some
of the farmers assert the belief that
the locusts are much to blame, they
having disarranged the systems of
the domestic fowl. However that may

Personal Property Bonded at Eight Thou
sand Dollars-Three Administrators.
1t is estimated that the personal es-
tate of the late Judge Stake is worth
about $4,000, bond of $4,000 being
given by John B. and Melchor Stake
and Chas. A. Little, they being APP
pointed the administrators, taking out
the letters in Hagerstown, yesterday.
Much of the estate is realty that does
not go through the Orphans Court,
Mr.. Little says it will not take so long
to settle up the estate as imagined,
unless complications ensue unforeseen
now. In few months the papers
WILDE all Strengthened out and the
actual work of setting the personal
estate begun. The box left with the
co urt by Hon. B. F. NJ Hurley was
found to contain court papers of val
ue and there is no will in the lock box
stored in Baltimore for the COM
panies there would haye notified
the heirs.
A mong the records in the County
Commissioners Office it was noted
that Judge Stake was paying tax
es on $4,000 in mortgages; of that So
coo is held in Garrett and $4,000 in
Allegany. There was also about So
600 in cash in the various banks of
town; he also held bonds of the Lon
a coming Water Co., among other out
standing securities but no schedule
anywhere of what he owned or any
trace of a will. The American Bond
ing Co., of Baltimore gave the bond.
Upon all the estate, personal and
real, amounting to about $125,OO0,
there will be a collateral inheritance
tax of p per cent or about $4,000
which goes to the state.
