Lynerd and Others Swear

Tricks of Republicans TO Deprive Citi-

MANCHESTER, MD, October %.

MANCHESTER, MD, October %.
To The ADVOCATE:
In your issue of October 25 you ask the
question, SIS this the same Jacob B. Lynerd
who is now candidate for the House OF
Delegates, that swore Mr.. John Zepp, Dem
ocrat off the registration books y l being
well acquainted with Mr. Jacob Lynerd can
truthfuIy say that he is The identical person.
and is now begging Democ; attic support.
And he is not the only Republican who has
been swearing off Democrats. Only this year
Mr. IIoratio Leese, Republican,, of Manchts
ter, swore off Mr.. Benjamin Banchman, who
tor more than forty years has voted the Dem
ocratc ticket in Manchester district. This
same Mr.. Leese also swore oil Mr.. Milton
Garrett. Democrat. who is also a voter IN
Manchester district. We also learn from
very reliable source, that only very few
years ago Mr.. George 0. X. Hoover, rural
mail carrier, swore off Mr.. Peter Lucabaugh,
Democrat, whose farm he was passing daily
Fortunately, these people were all noilhed
and appeared before the registrars, made oath
that they were residents of the district, there.
by were not deprived of their vote.
Are the Republicans clamoring for new
election law so that on the last day of regis
tration they can swear off white Democrats
who will have no redress and will lose their
vote? L suggest a change IN our eiectloh
law, that when Republican takes this mode
of DISTINGUISHING white Democrat, he should
be either fined or imprisoned or both.
If you ask the registrars now why they
swore the Democra off they simply tell you,
81 was told to do So" But this does not
close it. The registrar must drive to where
the supposed non resident lives oris supposed
to have left. The sworn off Democrats
friends follow up the registrar to explain to
the voter that he has been illegally sworn Oft
1t then becomes the duty of the sworn off
Democrat to leave his place of business or
farm and spend the best part of day to
make his appearance before the registrar to
make oath that he is still resident of the
district and entitled to vote.
Oh, wants to-be honest-and-fair Republic.
can, when you howl so much about the Dem
ocratic candidate for sheriff because he keeps
a hotel, "and a hotel where any man who
leaves his wife and children there knows
they are safe and we'll cared for until he calls
for Them why do you not tell the people OF
Carroll county that the man who presided
over the Republican convention and was
Abraham choice for the chairman of the
Republicans and who helped name the Re
publican ticket, is also a whisky seller and
hotel keeper.
FAIR PLAY.

Remember that in voting for Democratic
nominees for the United States Senate you
do not vote at the regular election place,
but at some voting place convenient there
to. Each Democrat after having voted
the Democratic ticket in the regular cleo
ton booth will 90 to the room where the
judges of the primary election will be
sitting and there secure regular ballot
prepared for the purpose and vote for
Hon. VIM. Pinkney Whyte for Senator
for the short term Che being the only
candidate) and for either John Walter
Smith, Edwin Warfeld, or j. F. G. Tai
bolt, for the long term. The ballots will
have the usual blank squares opposite each
name where cross mark is to be made.

Some of the Republican local leaders are
reported to have been in Baltimore recently
begging for money to aid in the election of
their local ticket Why should they want
money, when they are all pledged to aid
in the suppression of bribery and corrup-
ton at the polls? Is their pledge only a
blind to fool the Democrats ? Are they
not sincere in their proposition to observe
the laws against corruption ? Have their
professed desires to purify elections been
nothing but bluffs and frauds?

Notwithstanding the hullabaloo kicked
up by the Sentinel over the record of Mr..
Gettier, Democratic candidate for Sheriff,
Mr.. Gettier is a man of high character,
and will get votes enough from people
who are disguised at the malice shown to-
ward him, to make up for every vote he
may lose from misguided and prejuiced
people. A party whose convention was
presided over by Mr.. Charles Ii. Sapp, a
hotel and saloon keeper, whose court record
is not commendable, should not throw
stones or mud at man like Mr.. Gettier
who has every qualification necessary to
make good and efficient sheriff.

This campaign has been unique in more
respects than one. 1t is the first cam
paign for more than a generation in which
the kickers have not kicked and the usual
faultfinders have found no fault In fact
the kickers seem to have gone out Of bust
ness, and the critics and faultfnders have
not been able to find anything to criticise.
They have all returned to their old party
fold and as result the Democratic majority
ought to be phenomenally large, and it
will be if all Democrats vote next Tuesday.

1t has been our custom at the change of
each season to thank our customers for their
past kindness and at the same time remind
them that each successive season finds us III Il
better position to fill their demands.
We are carrying larger lines in each de
partment than ever before, and we have made
it study to try to buy salable goods, always
trying to raise the standard, believing that
while they would cost a little more in the be-
ginning, they would be far more satisfactory
in the end. But we want to say this to each
one of our customers, "Our prices are guar
anteed."
We scarcely think it necessary to try TO
mention every thing we carry, but only those
that are not usually carried in our line. We
wish to impress upon the people that we are
in the furniture business, and have on hand
at all times a full line of Bedroom Suits,
Chairs of all kinds, Hall Pieces, Bullets, Etc.
These goods are nicely displayed on our second
floor. We also keep a Catalogue always on
hand so our customers can select any thing
that we might be out of. These goods are
delivered and put up anywhere around the
before any sale is completed. During the
spring and summer months we sold five car
loads of furniture. We also carry nice line
of carpets of all kinds, linoleum, oicloth, etc.
cookstoves, alright heaters, elbows, pipes,
and everything used in that line. We have
one room completely filled with tinware.
Everything lady needs for her kitchen.
This weather now calls for gum goods, OF
which we have large assortment, including
felt boots, artics, gum boots, and shoes for
men, women and children.
We would call special attention TO our line
of Underwear. We are carrying full stock
of all grades, and we feel sure that visit to
our store will convince you that our line is
complete in every particular.
Beside ourselves, we have two very compe.
tent and obliging young men with us, and we
can assure you that you will receive every
courtesy.
Thanking you again for your past kindness,
and hoping you will see fit to continue your
patronage with us, we are,
Yours truly,

fact that every local option bill, as well as
every other bill looking to the furtherance
of the temperance cause in this State, has

and signed by Democratic Governor.

As boss of the Republican local organi
cation Mr. Huber is showing great activity
throughout the county. But it is rather
noticeable that the old leaders who were
dethroned to give him his place are not
exerting themselves to any great extent.
They know that if Huber's ticket should
by any accident win out, their heads would
soon hang at his belt, as their scalps are
now Huber has their scalps. If his
ticket wins he will take their heads.
