business. | haye seen no politicians,
nor have | discussed politics. | do
not apprehend any serious trouble
over the recent primary contest. The
Republican party, you know, believes
IN settling differences at the primaries.
AS is well known, had no hand in
the fight, either in Baltimore city or
elsewhere in the State. Now that
the primaries are over | believe all
Republicans, irrespective of faction,
should get together, so that we may
present a solid front at the coming
election in November. The victor
and the vanquished should now unite
in an effort to produce harmony and
to heal any wounds that might have
resulted from the primary fight. If
this is done, and | firmly believe it
will be accomplished, the Republican
party of this State will be able to give
an excellent account of itself at the
next general election.
Il set forth my position clearly in
my recent interview published in the
sun. If the nomination comes to me
from a united party | will accept.
fractional differences which causes
primary contests, must not be permit
ed to enter the State convention, but
all shades and compilations should be
unit. This is what the Republicans
of Maryland must strive for, and if
accomplished they can go before the
people with clean record and more
than an even chacge to elect the en-
tire ticket
e will be noted that Mr.. Williams
does not hesitate to predict success
for the Republican party in the cleo
ton upon the clean record" it has
made, provided all factionA differen-
ces are laid aside, and the party pre-
sents a united and aggressive front
during the campaign. The Democrats
have been consoling themselves with
the idea that the warm factional fights
which characterized the Republican
primaries in Baltimore and in many
counties in the State will result in
disaster to the Republican, on the day
of election But in this the indications
now are that they will be wofully dis
appointed, and it is confidently pre-
dicted that the Republicans will
sweep the State.

ADAY For MEMORY.

Monday last was the anniversary of
Il monumental crime against every
heaven-bOrn principle of the human
race; a day DEVOTED to worthy and
lofty memories of the dead and silent
humiliation because of a common kin
ship with the human tiend who made
it one of the milestones in nation 5
memory and an ungracious monu-
ment TO the lowest form of criminal
depravity.
On that second anniversary of the
tragic death of William Mckinley,
the thoughts of The teeming millions
of the republic turned kindly to him
friends and opponents alike. Enc
mics he had none, tiatterers he had
many, admirers by the million, while
the remaining millions respected him
though differing with him on ques-
lions of public policy.
William Mckinley, notwithstand-
ing the many fierce political contests
in which he participated, was unQues-
tionably the most;universally beloved
public man of the last half century.
He had passed beyond the period
of personal hatred in the hearts of an
adverse multitude, before the hour of
his crossing over, which Lincoln,
Grant, Tilden, Morton, Hendricks,
Stephens, Butler and other great men
covering the period of the civil war,
had not.
Kindly and just memories come
drifting to all of them, the starry bla-
zon in the crown of each recurring
year, but with William Mckinley it
seems as though all the stars in the
vault of Affection and Memory had
fallen like winrow of glory across
his tomb ere either the snow had
whitened or the breath of the south
west had touched it to emerald.

THRILLING AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT.

This season the Lyman H. Howe
Moving Pictures entertainment is bet
ter than ever, as excellent as the others
have been. Mr.. Howe has imported
at great expense lot of magnificent
pictures taken in the Philippines,
China, England, France and other
part of the world, including new
views of thrilling occurrences in the
United States. He has taken care to
arrange these so that they will sur
prise and delight as they are success
lively shown. Probably the greatest,
and certainly the most exciting pic
ture ever exhibited is the explosion of
an automobile. 1t is something that
startles and brings eXclamations of
general sympathy as the apparent
frightful tragedy occurs. The ma
chine contains four passengers, and
as it comes madly rushing towards
the audience, to the evident alarm of
all, when it arrives in the immediate
foreground, a wild explosion t kes
place, the passengers are flung high
into the air, fragments are sent sour
rying in all directions and the onlook-
ers breathe a sigh of relief when they
realize that it is only picture. The
entertainment will be at the opera
house in Oakland on Saturday night
September 10Th.

A Bear Seen.

Farmer, living in the region near
Roman Nose mountain, a few miles
north of Oakland, having for some
time been loosing an occasional sheep
and several of them have been keep
ing sharp lookout for the intruder
to their folds and a week or so since a
large black bear was seen near the
farm of Titus Delawder, but made
good his escape to the mountain and
is still at large. 1t is presumed to be
the same bear which was seen at the
home of Mr.. Clark DeBerry, near Oak
land, a month or two since.
The hunters in that section are on
the sharp look out for him and he
will be brought to the dust if he comes
within range.-Cumberland News.
Many of our readers will remember
the beautiful old deer that were for
merly kept by ex-senator H. @. Davis
in park near his home at Deer Park
and from which that famous resort
took its name. They were liberated
some fifteen years ago by Mr.. Davis
and thus one of the chief attractions
of that town was removed.
Col. Jno. 7. McGraw, who owns the
Davis home at that place, now pro-
poses to re- establish the deer park and
to that end has purchased several
wild deers in West Virginia which
will be taken to Deer Park and the
original park re-estaplished in field
near the colonel's home.-Cumber-
land News.

REGISTRATION.

Every Republican in this county
who is entitled to register and vote
at the election in November, but
whose name is now on the list of reg
istered voters, should give attention
to the notice of registration publish
ed in another column of THE REPUB-
LICAN this week. In this advertise
ment the Election supervisors give
notice of the times and places when
and where the officers of registration
will sit for the purpose eff registering
applicants and erasing the names of
persons not entitled to vote. These
sittings will be on Tuesday, Septem-
Der 29th, and Tuesday, October 9th.
After these dates it will be impossible
to register this year. The only other
sitting will be for the purpose of re-
vision. The Importance of the cleo
ton this year cannot well be exagera-
ted, and every Republican should
put himself in position to be able to
usc UlC "A VIC
tory will mean more tinkering with
the election law and the practical dis
franchisement of many citizens. This
purpose !should be defeated and can
be by united effort on the part of
the Republicans. Many Democrats
desire the simplitications of the al
ready complex election law, rather
than the imposition of further hind
RANGES to the exercises of the franchise
Some of them will aid the Repuhli-
cans in their efforts to prevent the
contemplated tinkeriug with the law
Surely no Republican should be SC
indifferent to the situation as to fail
to place himself in position to aid in
the effort to thwart the purposes OF
the Democratic bosses. Every un.
registered Republican is earnestly i'm
portuned to have is named placed on
the list of registered voters on one OF
the dates named. and as delays are
dangerous, prudence will dictate
that advantage be taken of the first
sitting of the registers, on Tuesday
September Goth.

Consumption

The only kind of consump-
ton to fear is neglected
consumption"
People are learning that con-
sumption is a durable disease.
1t is neglected consumption
that is so often incurable.
At the faintest suspicion of
consumption get a bottle of
SCOTS Emulsion and begin
regular doses.
The use of SCOTS Emulsion
at once, has, in thousands of
cases, turned the balance in
favor of health.
Neglected consumption does
not exist where SCOTS Emul-
sion is.
Prompt use of SCOTS Emul-
sion checks the disease while it
can be checked.

NO STRIKE.

Will BE Called on the Baltimore a Ohio.
There will by no strike by the B. &
o. trainmen. Their conference with
the company officials has been very
satisfactory and number of the
grievances have been settled, several
of them being total concessions TO the
men. The trainmen are pleased with
the manner in which they have been
received and the strike talk has all
disappeared and satisfactory concilia-
ton is proving itself the successful
key to the situation.
Employer and employe must work
together. Neither can get along with
out the other and we are fast APP
preaching the day when this fact will
be conceded and relations formed
accordingly.

IMPORTANT TO VOTERS.

1t is not generally known that the
Legislature of Maryland, at the fla
nous or infamous-special session
called by Gov. John Walter Smith,
passed law making it necessary for
any adult male person coming into
this State with the intention of resid-
ing therein and who may desire to
become a voter, to register his age
and occupation in the office of the
clerk of the Circuit Court for the
county of which he may become res
ident. He must then remain full
year in the State, from the date of
such registration, before he can be
come invested with the privilege of
the ballots. This is one of the unnec-
cessary hardships imposed by the eX-
ira session legislation enacted for the
especial benefit of Mr. German. 1t
is a fact that should be made known
to all citizens, and readers of the RE-
PUBLICAN are requested to make a
note of it and keep an eye open
for immigrants from other States, that
the information may be impaired to
them promptly.
