Any mention Of the inspection trip is
incomplete without noting the splendid
service given by the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad. The dining service was of
the very highest order. 1t was under
the supervision of Superintendent E. V.
Baugh, represented byT. T. Heckrotte,
inspector of service, who did the honors
most creditably. The organization of
the trip was perfect. Much credit is
due ]. R. Buckingham, who carried out
the details of it.
The trip was very interesting and in
structive. 1t gave the capitalists
keener insight into the operations of the
Fairmont Coal Company, and amazed
them with the possibilities of property
which is directed from Baltimore and
contributes to her commercial impor-
lance. 1t furthermore revealed to them
a community of exceptional enterprise
and push, and undoubtedly has aroused
ideas which will be to the advantage of
the city.
On the trip Governor Warfeld located
number of Marylanders who promised
to remember to Homecoming Week at
Baltimore this fall

Photographic The Breath.

Photography of the breath is the lat
est science. This was explained recent
" at the annual meeting of the
Roentgen Ray Conference, at which
cinematograpic pictures Of the breath
ing of sick and healthy persons were
thrown upon a screen.
The inventor of the method is DR..
Koehler, of Wiesbaden. His system
shows accurately the sympathetic
action of the lungs and heart in con-
nection with inspiration and expiration.
1t is expected that the discovery will
play an important role in the diagnoses
of tuberculosis and similar respiratory
diseases. Berlin Dispatch.

IEFT-HAND COMPLIMENT
FOR GOVERNOR WAKEFIELD
Democrats Of Garrett County Met Here
In Convention Tuesday.
DELEGATION FOR HENRY WILLIAMS
u. 5 HamilI, Sr., flakes a Speech in
which He Scaths Republican OF
ficeholders of the County Fight
to Gust HamilI from Craftsmanship

The Democrats of the county met in
the Court House in Oakland in conven-
tion Tuesday afternoon to elect dele
gates to the Democratic convention of
the State being held there today to nomi-
nate state ticket. The delegates cleo
ted were G. Semmes Hamill, r. T.
Browning, William Miller, Thomas Lit
tie, Peter J. Chisholm, C. v Guard, F.
c. Refs and E. A. Browning. They
left for Baltimore the same night. The
same central committee was elected
which has been serving during the past
two years.
The delegates were instructed to work
and vote for the nomination of Frank
Brown governor. But it was learned
before the delegation left Oakland that
he would decline the nomination, the
delegation then said that it was for
Henry Williams for governor. Williams
is member of the Baltimore bar and
is brother of Ferdinand Williams, of
Cumberland.
Mr.. G. S. Hamill, Sr., addressed the
convention in a speech filled with invec-
tives against the Republican officehol-
ders of Garrett county. He pied for
Democratic influence to be exerted
against the use of money at elections.
The speaker also contended that Frank
Brown should be the choice of Garrett
county Democrats for the governorship.
Mr.. Hamill particularized the commits
sloners of Garrett county when he said
the roads and bridges of this county are
worse today than he had ever seen them.
In the resolutions there was made but
short reference to the administration
f Governor Warfeld They said in sub
>stance that while Warfeld may have
been led in many of his official acts by
the proper motives, yet he had done
them against the judgment of the
chief Democrats of Garrett county. The
convention, therefore, favored the nomi-
nation Of Frank Brown.
There was strong fight made over
the county craftsmanship of the state
central committee. 1t seems that an
effort was made by chicanery to GUST
Hamill and put in R. T. Browning At
one time affairs became rather warm.
In the midst of the turmoil one wheel
horse of Democracy rose, and stretch
ing forth his hand said, Gentlemen, all
this folderol looks like child's play. B"
Thus shame was thrown upon the null

ed that, much to his regret, his engage
ments were such as would not permit
him to accept the invitation. Mr.. Muir
ray sent this greeting:
Am sure the occasion will be a
memorable one, and trust the season
will be successful"
Major J. G. Pangborn, special repre-
sentative of the Baltimore and Ohio,
then gave a short talk and assured the
association of Mr.. Murray's willingness
tn cooperate with them in the future
as in the past, and spoke of his deep
interest in the welfare of the Baltimore
and Ohio employees.
Governor Warfeld held an informal
reception in the afternoon, after which
he was shown over the grounds by Off
GERS of the association.

titude and they elected the same COM
mittee which has been serving for the
past two years. Had the present chair
man been ousted there would have been
war in the Democratic camp.

A good many people are asking how
the street car company can expect
good order on car run by n man as
conductor who seems to have no re.
spect for anybody. but who will try
to start n chewing match with man,
woman or child on the slightest provo.
cation. The little Smart Alex carried
his impudence far enough to insult
an officer to-day. who felt called upon
to speak to him for his action toward
a passenger on the car. The West vir.
ginlan has been on the point several
times. of telling the people more things
than the average person knows about
the incivIlities Of this young man and
1t may have to be done yet, accompa.
MED by the name Of the youngster,
so there can be no mistake MS to his
identity. although we presume most
people know now TO whom reference
is made. All the other conductors be.
have themselves like gentlemen.

The Wheeling lntelligencer has been
interviewing Wheeling Democrats as
to how we'll they like Mr.. Bryan. Out
Of twenty-five interviewed, eighteen
were for the Peerless One, two non.
committal and five against his renom-
ination. At that ratio the nation over,
Mr.. Bryan will be nominated hands
down. And that Is what we may ex.
pect. Bryan is easily the foremost
Democrat in the United States and he
more nearly represents Democratic
principles than any other man, then
why should he not be nominated? II
the people want Democratic Presl.
dent. then they should elect Mr.. Bry-
an; If they do not, they can say so
by again defeating him at the polls.
That Is the best place to test It.
