what are-those to the people at large,
to the government? Here are some
of them:
A location that has no equal in
point of healthfulness in the union as
is attested by the great health resorts
of Oakland, Deer Park and Mountain
Lake Park.
A sanitary situation, with the pur-
est water for culinary and drinking
purposes, and pure river bisecting
it of sufficient volume for bathing
and all other purposes for which
water NAV be required.
A transportation system ON its Dor
der that is capable of handling the
entire army of the union in forty
eight hours.
A proximity to the national capital
and to the great center of the middle
east and Ohio valleys not enjoyed by
any other location.
An abundant supply of cheap and
wholesome provisions for the soldiers
and of forage for their horses.
An atmosphere that is so invigorat-
ing that even in the hottest days of
summer men can undergo without ia
tigue the maximum amount OF exer-
ton.
a moral environment of the high
est type and absolute freedom from
any of the contagion of the city or
larger towns
A minimum price for the land, for
the material for the camps equip
ment and for the labor necessary
therefor.
And probably, highest and best,
that grand and imposing mountain
scenery that from the earliest stages
of the worlds history has so impressed
itself upon those enjoying it, as to
make them the best soldiers of their
day and country.
With these material advantages
presented to Congress, there should
be no doubt as to its decision. To aid
in their presentation is the duty we
refer to and duty performed quick
ly is a duty performed in the best
and most effective manner. We there
fore appeal to our people to at once
get in touch with this movement and
exert themselves to their utmost for
its success.

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 1902.

In is generally understood in Dem
ocratie circles.t the existing ballot
law is to be amended by the present
Legislature and that the amendments
are intended to further complicate
the ballot rather than make it palmer.
Senator elect German is said TO have
endorsed the proposed changes dur
ing a conference which followed a
dinner at Hotel Rennert on Tuesday
afternoon.
In few words, the Democratic
idea is to eliminate every party sign
from the ballot and compel the voter
to know the candidates before going
into the booth. To this end the
words Republican, Democratic,
"Prohibitionist,n etc, will be omit
ted after the names of the several
candidates in each group and the
ballot will therefore contain nothing
in addition to the titles of the offices
to be filled except the names of the
candidates.
As sop to the public, however, the
Democrats, it is understood, intend
to leave blank space at the head of
the ticket so that the voter can, if he
wishes, vote straight party ticket
by writing in this space the name of
the party he favors.
The Democratic leaders are report
ed as believing that such ballot will
entirely eliminate the ignorant vote
and that it will perpetuate the hold
of the party on the State The lead
ers still cling to the belief that there
are more illiterate Republicans than
Democrats. The leaders believe that
it will be absolutely impossible for an
illiterate to remember and pick out
the names of the candidates of his
own party and that the necessity for
writing in the name of the party will
voting a straight ticket
1t was also rumored that an amend
ment to the election law to give the
Democrats control in every polling
place in the State will be adopted.
At present there are two Judges of
each party in every polling place.
Under the rumored amendment there
will be two Democratic and only one
Republican judge. Whether this
change has been finally determined
upon was not known yesterday, but
it is being discussed very seriously by
the leaders.

THE ARMY CAMP AT OAKLAND,

From Mondays Cumberland Tines
This county has duty to perform
and this city, as its county seat, should
take the initiative.
Under an act of Congress four great
permanent camps of instruction are
to be formed in this country. The
location of these camps is in the
hands of the Secretary of War, sub
ject to approval of Congress. Three
of the camps have been located in
three of the four great divisions for
instruction and mobilization-the
fourth is still an open question, with
the alleged preference of the Secre-
tary of War for Mt Gretna, Pa, and
the avowed desire of the General of
the Army for site presented for the
departments consideration by our
sister county of Garrett.
Recent investigation by the special
board OF army officers of the Garrett
site demonstrated it's eminent fitness
for the purpose, and the delegations
in Congress, which is the final power
in the matter, from this State, from
Ohio and West Virginia are consoli-
dating in support of the Garrett site
for good and sufficient reasons. Penn
sylvania is naturally using her power
for Mt. Gretna.
The citizens of Oakland and indeed
of the entire county of which it is the
county seat, are becoming daily more
active in the efforts to secure the
camp and this county should at once
join with them. Our commissioners
should cooperate, cur Board of Trade
should initiate the movement here
and our council should by resolution
and acts aid in the project, for
nothing now in sight could prove of
greater benefit to Western Maryland.
A camp of this character is per-
manent investment by the govern
nent on a large scale, it brings thous-
ands of soldiers and citizens annually
into the section of its location, it
furnishes market for supplies that
is almost unlimited, and it enhances
the value OF all property in it's envir-
onment to great extent. Such are
the advantages to our people. Now

BRYAN TEST.

The following interesting para
graph appears in last weeks issue of
the Commoner:
AN agent reports that one Demo
crat refused to subscribe for the Com
mOner because he had read in some
paper that Mr. Bryan had gone over
to the gold bugs and was booming
Hill for President. If the aforesaid
Democrat read the Commoner he
could not be deceived by such absurd
rumors. Those who take this paper
know that the editor neither has
doomed nor is likely to boom anyone
for the Democratic nomination who
was against the party in 1896 or even
doubtful"
And so the Bryanite test of DeInoc-
racy applies to the campaign of 1896
and not to that of 1900. This is i'm
portant, because there are men-some
of considerable prominence-who
have been nursing the notion that by
their support of Mr.. Bryan in 1900
they washed away the sin of oppos-
ing him in his first race. Their awak-
ening to the real situation will be a
little bitter. They may hold con-
ference, and decide that they are be-
ing unduly Notwithstanding for
hidden by the law of the land
Rnt UhiIn M HilI oIo,,o
by Mr.. Bryan, he is not the only man
to whom the Bryan decree applies.
There are others. Mr.. Hill very we'll
heads the list. He sulked all through
the campaign of 1896, and while he
supported Mr.. Bryan in 1900, his
stamping was done in Virginia, where
the Republicans had as much chance
to win as the Democrats had in Maine.
He had no heart in the campaign,
but was Democrat merely for regu-
larity's sake.
Mr.. Watterson is ruled out. 1t is
true, he was not in the country dur
ing the campaign of 1896, but the in
fiuence of the newspaper over which
he presides was thrown against Mr..
Bryan that year, and Kentucky, for
the first time in the States history,
cast all but one of her electoral votes
for the Republican National ticket.
Subsequently Mr.. Watterson return
to the fold, and in 1900 carried the
State by few thousand for Mr..
Bryan. But that, according to this
latest edict, does not clear his title
sufficiently to recommend him to Mr..
Bryan as a man to be doomed for the
Presidency.
And there is Mr.. Olney. 1t has al
ways been understood that he oppos-
ed Mr.. Bryan in 1896. But by 1900
this accomplished attorney for syndi-
Gated wealth had become alarmed at
the growth of the power of syndicates
in the United States and voted for
Mr.. Bryan. And yet the Bryan rule
excludes him. The Olney boom has
never been very promising, but there
is something that goes by that name.
1t may not survive this frost.
Mr.. German escapes. He support
ed Mr.. Bryan in both campaigns, and
with the same serene Intellectually.
Maryland gave her vote in both years
to Mr.. Mckinley. But Mr.. Bryan I'M
derstands Mr.. German and regularity
or no regularity, would not boom him
for President under any circum-
stances.

the message from Garrett arrived
earlier, for it is a very ticklish mat
ter to attempt to defeat purely local
bill against the wishes of the county
Senator and Delegates. 1t has been
done once or twice in past sessions,
but it always covered with odium
those who were participants in the
business.

PAUL WINCHESTER.
BLOOMINGTON.

The Pennsylvania coal operators
who leased the New Greek coal lands
j commenced operations last week
| about 200 yards above mouth of Pine
Swamp run. A gang of men are work
developing the six-foot seam of coal
preparatory to more extensive opera
lions in the spring. The lesses are
undecided as to the name of the new
company, also as to which line of
railroad-the West Va. Cent. or B. &
O.-they will make their connection.
Mr.. Daniel Racey and his bride ar
rived in town Monday evening. The
groom met his wife, Miss Sullivan.
of Pittsburg. at Mt. Savage while she
was visiting relatives and where they
were quietly married last Sunday.
Messrs. Dubois & Bond have sub
mitted their last proposition to the
b. Il o. and on it's acceptance or re-
lection depends the location of the
mill. If the railroad company agree
to their proposition the plant will
likely be located ON the Widow Wilt
farm and railroad connection made
with the B. & o. at "a Water Station.
If the company refuse shipping con-
nection will be made with the West
Va. Cent, the old Lochiel mill site
will be the location for the new plant
and logging road 10 to Is miles long
constructed up Savage river to carry
timber to the mill.
Miss Maud Beard has been very ill
with rheumatic fever.
Mr.. James Painter, b. g. o. baggage
agent at Oakland, spent Sunday in
town.
Mrs. Elizabeth O'Neil, of Cumber-
land, accompanied by Miss Adelaide
Phillips, of Piedmont, was a guest
last week of Mr.. and Mrs. Andrew
Mullen.
The North Branch company have
about completed arrangements, as
soon as the weather permits or early
in the spring, to open the old North
Branch six-foot about one-half mile
above town. This piece of property
is famous throughout the State on
account of long and tedious litiga-
ton extending over nearly twenty
years with the B. & O., due to the
