Judge Boyd for Governor

A movement to have Chief Judge
Boyd the Democratic candidate this fall
for the governorship has been started.
The idea has met with favorable COM
ment by the Democratic press through
out the State. His present term as
judge will expire next fall, and many of
the Democrats predict that he would
make very strong candidate. There
have been no interviews published as
given out by Judge Boyd himself.

i COURT HOUSE HOUSE
= BONDS RECEIVED
Were Printed by a Bank Printing House
in Chicago.
COST OF PRINTING THEM $3.50.
Everything Ready for the Sale for
July 23-Hundreds of Inquire
from Bankers and Capitalists Be-
ing Received by Clerk Ross.

The County Commissioners have re-
ceived the bonds from the Western
Bank Note Co., Chicago, by whom they
were printed. There are one hundred
and fifty of them and they cost 81 each
for the printing. They consist
of two sheets, upon the outer one of
which are the coupons.
They are all of the same denomina-
ton, but they are different in respect
to the time at which they mature.
There are ten which fall due each year
after 1908. The coupons call for the
interest to be paid every six month";,
the first of February and the first of
August.
Clerk Ross is receiving hundreds of
inquiries from large and small banking
houses in the cities. They write ask
ing concerning the details of the issue.
The sale is to take place in front of the
Court House on July 23rd, beginning at
ten O'Clock.
The fact that bonds are to be sold has
been published in many of the financial
journals of the country. 1t is in this
way that the monied people of the
cities knows that there is to be sale
here of bonds. Many of the companies
will send representatives In view of
the fact that the interest upon the bonds
is so low, being but 4 per cent, it is
thought by many tinanciers, that the
bonds will not bring much above par
value.
The County Commissioners will not
have any more meetings until the day
upon which the sale of bonds is to take
place which is 23rd

ANOTHER ESCAPED
PRISONER RETURNED
Fred Banks Again in Jail Having Been
Caught in MeyersdaIe.
BROUGHT TO OAKLAND FRIDAY
OF the Seven Prisoners Who Escaped
Last September, Four Have Been
Recaptured- Sheriff Lee is Still
On the War Path for Others.

Fred Banks, colored, one of the pris-
oners that escaped from the county Jail
on September q, 1906, has been recap
tured and was brought to Oakland Fri
day evening by Sheriff Lee He was
caught at Myersdale, Pa.
Banks says that as soon as he left
Oakland upon the night of his escape
that he went to Cumberland; from there
to Myersdale; later to Little Washing
ton; thence to Mt. Pleasant; and that
he had returned again to his old home
at Myersdale upon the morning of July
4th, last, when he was seen by the off
Gals there and was caught and handed
over to Sheriff Lee the next day. He
is exceedingly indignant over his recap
ture; he will have to lie in the county
Jail until next December to wait to an
swer the indictment found against him
in 1906.
The indictment charges Banks with
having assaulted and robbed Mr.. John
w. Huff, upon night of June 1906, at
a place near Broderick's lake, near
Oakland. Mr.. Huff alleges that S87. so
cents as well as a watch were taken
from him and that he had been severely
beaten. Another negro, George Wal
ker, who is also implicated with Banks
for the same offense, made his escape
at the same time with Banks, but has
not yet been recaptured.
OF the seven prisoners which escaped
on the evening of September 2lst, past,
four have been recaptured. The three
yet at liberty are George Walker, Mic
hazel Gillispie, and William McGinnis.
Sheriff Lee feels confident that he will
soon have another one of these three.

Haman Oyster Law Flaps.

We have just received from the De-
partment of Commerce and Labor,
Washington, D. c., copy of the report
of the U. S. Coast and Geodetic Survey
in cooperation with the Maryland Shell
fish Commission, describing the oyster
bars of Anne Arundel county. We have
also received from the Commission,
maps showing the location of the oyster
bars in Anne Arundel county and ada
cent waters and exhibiting the points
at which oysters may be planted under
what is known as the Hannah oyster
law. The work seems to have been
done skillfully and thoroughly in both
cases.

ed warm denial, and demand for the
proof from an official of the Exposition.
Nothing has been heard from the latter
since the Sun promptly announced its
readiness to produce the evidence, and
to claim the reward offered it by the
sanguine official on behalf of the persons
robbed
The Sun alleged that lady had been
taxed eighty cents for one tomato. 1t
has the proof. 1t charged that young
man was required to pay $40 for some
light refreshments for himself and lady
friend. 1t has the proof. 1t alleged
that another young mannwas assessed
SIPS for cheap sandwich, and it is
ready with the proof whenever the in
dignant exposition official is ready to
pay the reward of 500 offered for evil
dence to sustain the charges stated
above
The press and public has heretofore
paid but little attention to charges of
extortion made by visitors to James
town, but when they are made specifi-
cally by so responsible AMI authority as
the Baltimore Sun, it behooves the man
ayers of the exposition to take up the
matter with view to prompt correc-
ton. -Cumberland Times.

ToIley Line 70 Coal Fields.

The Baltimore, Frederick and Hagers-
town Electric Railway Company is I'M
derstood to be planning extensions into
the coal fields of Maryland, and possibly
West Virginia and Pennsylvania, and
will haul the product to tidewater at
Baltimore. The plan, it is understood,
proposes making the road an extensive
freight-carrying line, and is said to in
volve an expenditure of $4,000, 900.
Surveys alread made are for low-grade
line, and it has been suggested for this
reason that possibly steam, as well as
electricity, might be used as a motive
power, but this has been denied.

The officers of the twenty-seventh
annual fair after week of hard work
have brought all fair accounts into
shape so that the final report can be
made within the next few days. The
association finds the situation decid-
edly more satisfactory than was ex-
pected at the first of last week, when
it was given out unofficially that
small shortage might be expected. AS
a result of the examination of the ac-
counts it seems probable that the as
sociatiOp will break even this year,
provided all subscriptions are paid up.
Those who have subscribed to the fair
and who have not paid their subscrip-
tions are urgently invited to do so at
once, in order that all accounts can be
closed UP and the final statement
made. With all subscriptions in the
accounts will balance neatly, and
there should be no delay in payment
1t is gratifying to know that almost
all subscriptions have been paid only
the Struggling few remaining to be
collected. subscriptions may be paid
to the First National bank, to Man
