BOTH CLAIM $4,000 TAXES.
Arguments Heard on the AIIegany-
Garrett Boundary Dispute.

Chief Judge A. Hunter Boyd heard
arguments Thursday in the suit to es-
tablish the boundary between Garrett
and Allegany counties. About $40, 900
taxes are involved. The dispute is as
to whether what is known as the
Chisholm line, surveyed in 1872, or the
line relocated according to the act of
the legislature of 1898 is the correct
line. By the latter line, which was
surveyed by L. A. Bauer, a strip of
land heretofore on the Allegany side
of the line, which averaged about
1000 feet for 49, miles and consisted
of about 6! square miles of coal land.
was thrown on the Garrett county
side Of the line. When, however, the
Garrett county authorities attempted
to collect the taxes on the land in dis
pute the Consolidation Coal Com
pany through Allegany county, Sc
cured an injunction to prevent the
payment of the taxes, which amounts
to about $4,000, to Garrett county
and the suit thus instituted was ar
gued Thursday by Benjamin A. Rich
mond and Albert A. Doub on the
part of Allegany county and Edward
H. Sincell, of Oakland, on the part of
Garrett county.
1t was claimed that the Chisholm
line was simply trial line, Surveyor
Bauercontending that when Chisholm
made his return, the latter intended
to run another line. 1t was shown
that when the Chisholm line was To-
Gated the Surveyors returns were &C
cepted and by a vote of the people the
new county was formed. The line was
relocated as the result of the repre-
sentation of Hiram p. Tasker that
there were a number of military lots,
some in Garrett and some in Allegany
county, that were not assessed. The
case was held sub curia.

THE REPUBLICAN,.
RECRUIT FOR MIR. ROOSEVELT.

heChUIl FUh Mn. kUUStVELi.
The esteemed New Nork sun has
just executed another of those feats
of agility with which, during the
past twenty-five years or more, it has
so frequently astonished and delight
ed the country. After deyoting itself
for something like thirty months
to the ridicule, disparagment. and
denunciation of President Roosevelt,
it now proclaims allegiance to his
cause and, with a straight face which
commands our admiration, ADVISES
the American voter to aid in his cleo
ton.
When we review the Suns record
in respect to Mr.. Roosevelt's public
acts and private character, since the
early days of 1902, it seems to us its
ferocious pursuit of Grant, Cleveland,
Henry Ward Beecher, and John \.
Logan was the work of an. immature
novice in comparison. Mr.. Roosevelt
has been held up to public odium and
eXecr&tion. The Sun has charged
him with folly, false pretense, lawless-
ness, and despotism. 1t has pictured
MIN as reckless mischief maker, Il
charlatan, the protagonism of social
and industrial chaos. Yet now we
have this same Sun recantihg all its
professions of the past three years
and solemnly inviting the American
public to accept its latest and most
astounding somersault as strictly
ana intellectual performance.
Acknowledging that the independ-
ent vote will decide this years cleo
tions, it appeals to that vote in these
remarkable terms:
To state the Suns position and
its reasons therefor requires no meta
physical suptlety of explanation.
The main consideration is as broad as
the nations interests. As the cause
is now made up, we prefe. the lmpul-
siye candidate of the party of conser-
vatism to the mildly conservative,
temporizing opportunist representa-
tive of the Hun vote in the back
ground. We have more faith in the
distinct promises of the Chicago plat
form, not ignoring the many serious
defects of that document, than we
have in the miserable hell-broth of
disaster and dynamite concocted at
st. Louis a month ago by a party
afraid to renounce its criminal folies,
and tasted yesterday at Esopus by a
respectable candidate, who declares
with gusto thai. fits favor is admir-
able. -
1--WE shall therefore advocate the
election of Roosevelt and Fairbanks
and advise the defeat of Parker and
Davis
And only last week the Sun was
abroad with its lantern, looking for
the absolute antithesis Of Mr.. Roose-
welt as the ideal President!
Whether Mr.. Roosevelt himself will
relish this jauntY convert we have no
means of knowing. That nobody of
sane mind and tolerable principles
will attach the smallest imp ortance
to its denominations, is of course. Mr..
Roosevelt will probably be elect
ed next November, but it will be in
spite of and not because of the fresh
remodeled activities of the New York
SUn-Washington Post.

REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTS
They Receive the Unstinted 'Abn5s of
Democrats and Faithful SUPP
port of the People

According to the democrats, the re-
publican presidents, every one of them.
have been a bad lot, personally and.
politically. Each and all of them were
declared to be running the country; but
when the day of reckoning came and
the verdict of the people was handed in
on their ballots, judgment was given,
save in two cases in Al years-for the
republicans. Impartial history acquits
every republican president of criminal
intent and acts. In doing his duty to
the people Mr.. Lincoln became n
martyr. No ruler was ever more Will
fed and denounced His body in life,
his spirit in death, represent the divid-
ing line bet@eon loyalty and disloyalty,
between the cohesion of the states or
their disintegration. When a demo-
crat, be he leader or follower, writes or
talks of the republican party as nation
! destroyer through its measures or its
presidents, it is because he does not
know or does not care to remember that
Buchanan, who was a democrat. shaped
the course of his administration so that
Ethe advocates of secession might have a
quick and easy victory: it was this
democrat president who left to his re-.
publican successor and the loyal people
he hgd been chosen to govern, an empty
treasury, "a corporal's guard OF an army,
wreck of navy ,dismantled fortresses
and legi5ns of officeholders liberated
with disloyalty that the stern lessons
of war and years of Christian peace
have not entirely bradicated. And be-
fore Buchanan were Democratic admin
istrations whose acts were seemingly
preludes to his crime. The lineage Of
the democratic party is record OF
broken pledges conceived in political
iniquities and strangled at their birth.
1t is the democratic party to which the
people owe four years of civil war and
eight years of such misgovernment.

1t has been the province of the re-
Epublicn party to undo the work OF its
Eopponents;' il has again and again
saved the nation from ,degenerating to
low grade in nationalities, and it has

brought into contempt.
OF course the democrats assail repub-
lican presidents and their nominees for.
the place of chief execution; they do
this more by innuendo than by direct
accusation-a stabbing in tie dark
rather than fight in the sunlight. But
there is always this in favor Of the re-

time they begin to make history for
the nation-that for their support in
the ordeal of public criticism they

Turner and the Railroads

George F. Cotterill, of Seattle, who
was democratic candidate for CON
gresham two years ago, is against the
Stevenson nominee for governor, says
the Fairfield Standard. In a signed
statement to the public he has this to
say of his former political colleague.
"Mr. Turner is not sincere. He was
one of the plutocratlc ring which
framed Parker's nomination as a re-
buke to Roosefelt for interfering in the
Northern Securities case and breaking
up that illegal merger. His sympathies
and interests have always been and are
still with the moneyed interests he now
processes to oppose. His announced
hostility to the railroads in Washing
ton is not genuine, and IA democrat who
is forced 10 choose between republic
can and hypocrite must either vote
for a republican or take to the woods.
"Two stories are current which will
show that real democrats who stand for
something have no place to lay their
heads in the Washington campaign.
One is that George Stevenson, the rail
road lobbyist, who for years has done
the railroads political work in the
state, is now one of the councillors Of
the Turner forces. The other is that
the Hartman interests are supporting
Turner. II this be true, the only choice
democrat or the people have is
choice of railroads.
"Mead, the republican candidate for
governor, will probably win by Il ma
iority of $4,000, while Roosevelt Will
carry the state by between 10000 and
100000"

Investigation flushed Up

The investigating committee got so
close to the truth in the matter that
every effort was made to stop it and to
bury forever the evidence that was dug
up While witnesses were being
brought from Tacoma, Turner appeared,
and early in the morning, when the
committee made a partial report, one
of Turner's friends arose and moved
that the committee be discharged. That
motion was carried by the majority,
which that man controlled and which
he used as instruments to bring about
his election.

you, in the face of a charge that you
had purchased u seat in the United

that it continue its work until your
name had been cleared forever of the
stigma placed upon it? Every one OF

charged, would have demanded a
thorough and exhaustive examination
to prove your honesty.
