Share of Costs in Suit in Matter of Distri-
button of School Fund.
The Washington county commits
sioners yesterday discussed the re-
quest of the Allegany county com
missioners to pay $4,000 of the costs,
amounting to $1,63O.05, incurred in
bringing the suit, which was insti-
tuted by Allegany county, in the
matter of the distribution of the
State school fund. Under the courts
decision Washington, Allegany and
Garrett counties will receive a much
larger sum as their share. Garrett
paid hor share ($270) of the costs in
the case. Washington county receiv-
ed about 81, 900 mora than usual from
the last distribution by Comptroller
Herring. The commissioners at
Hagerstown took no action in the
matter, desiring further information
before they pay the $4,000. This is
the second time Allegany has asked
Washington county to pay its share.
The latter county was not a party to
thesuit but as it shares in che ben e.
fits of the courts decision, Allegany
thinks it a moral obligation to pay a
due proportion of the costs of the
suit. President Albert, of the Wash
ington county commissioners, stated
that if the board had known his
county would receive $4,000 year
extra from the State school fund they
could have made the levy in June
$4,000 less.-Cumberland Times.

A short time ago the tickle Demo
cratic newspaper editor took great
delight in preaching the beauties of
Organism" and free silver" Now
he is engaged in the arduous task of
trying to frighten the poor ignorant
voter with the negro domination
bugaboo." There is just as little sub
stance and common sense in the one
issue as the other. 1t is all windy
clap-trap-the race issue being at this
time pushed to the front as cover
for the further tampering with free
elections and robbery of the tax
Dayers.

TO HUMBUG THE VOTER.

The platform of our Democratic
brethren follows closely their platform
of 1901, in that they do great deal
of recommending, but by an adroit
manipulation of the English language
they eliminate every promise to carry
out their platform, if elected. Is it
necessary for the voter to again re-
turn that party to power to ascertain
that they will not do what they pre-
tend to say the will do?
Every plank in the platform recent
thy adopted by the Democratic State
Convention, is based upon and copied
from the plank of the several Re-
publican county platforms, differing
only in this, that where the Republi-
cans in every instance pledge their
party and candidates to honestly
carry out the platform, the Demo
Gratis merely suggest that such re-
forms would be beneficial to the State.
The only new plank adopted by
the Democrats is the one declaring
for white supremacy, and that was
inserted only for political capital.
The Democratic party has never re-
fused vote in their behalf because
it was cast by negro.
Their whole platform was promul-
gated with the paramount idea of
hoodwinking the voter. They have
deceived the people time and again,
and stand ready and willing to re-
peat Incorporation.

tions. Determined campaigns have
had to be waged in many places to
to get rid of the pigpen, 'or the
friends of the poor man" sometimes
come into prominence and succeed in
maintaining its ascendency. Fortu
nately, however, the pigpen is gradu
ally falling into such disfavor as a
menace to the public health that it
will doubtless be only question of a
short time until even the smaller
towns insist upon its extinction.
''Dr. John S. Fulton, secretary of
State Board of Health, in letter to
/ DR.. Enoch George, the health officer
Caroline county, expresses very forci-
bly, the opinion of sanitarians on con-
ditions that obtain in town where
the pigpen is permitted. In advising
that psychological examinations of
the Denton water supply be made,
DR.. Fulton qualities his suggestion in
this way: Il do not see much adYan-
tage, though, to be derived from
water examinations in pigpen towns.
You can put it down as almost GER
tainty that eighty per cent of the
private wells are unfit for use, no
matter how beautiful and agreeable
the water may appear, and unless
the public supply comes from a great
depth, or is exceedingly well protect
ed, the public supply is also in CON
slant danger of contamination. Exam
ination by Prof w. b. d. Penniman
of the Denton water supply shows
that it is seriously polluted, and the
source of this is said to be in the sur
roundings of the public wells, which
are shallow. The Denton water plant
was recently put in at a cost of $10,-
600, and it is now proposed to again
bond the town for like sum. if need
be, and have the water come from
artesian wells.
THE call for trained nurses from a
number of Eastern Shore towns has
been large within the last month, and
it has been conclusiYely shown that
some communities are reaping the re-
suits of lax methods of safeguarding
the public health. In this matter
eternal vigilance is the price of immu-
nitv, and it is strongly to the interest
of inAiNriIn lc xtran on MI Ar
to enforce cleanliness and approved
methods of sanitation. The pigpen,
aside from being general nuisance,
is an ever-present danger in towns.
by getting rid of it, keeping the
streets and private enclosures clean,
and protecting the sources from
which water for household purposes
is drawn from contamination, the in
sidious diseases of this season of the
of the year in country towns can be
reduced to the minimum
The above, clipped from the Balti-
more Ne2CS of last Monday is equally
as applicable to the mountain region
of Maryland as it is to the lower lying
section of the State. Oakland, par
ticularly, should make some move
toward securing a source of water
supply from some one or more of
the pure mountain streams which are
of easy access and thus be immune
from some of the diseases that are
clearly and easily traceable to impuri-
ties of water drawn from wells and
and springs, our present source of
of supply.

pastime in many harems. The number of

TO read sacred legends, or religious tracts
