opinion of Chief Judge A. Hunter Boyd
in the case of Mitchell Bros, of Friends
vile, and F. C. Ries, of Accident, VS..
E. Z. Tower, Clerk of the Court, in
which the Court decided that the vote
in Friendsville whereby the citizens of
that town decided that liquor should not
be sold within the corporate limits of
the town, ana upholding the constitu-
tionality Of the law passed at the recent
session Of the Legislature prohibiting
the sale Of liquor within a CERTAIN pre-
scribed distance. from any church or
school house within the county.
Mitchell Bros, of Friendsyille, sought
to compel Mr.. Tower as Clerk Of the
Court to issue them = license to sell
liquor at Friendsvile, declaring in the
papers filed in the mandamus case that
the vote was illegal, the tickets pre-
pared and used at the election not being
in accordance with the law.
MIR. Ries, by mandamus, also sought
to compel the Clerk to issue him a
licence to retail liquor at Accident, at
lacking the constitutionaIity of the law
passed last winter prohibiting the sale
of liquor within a prescribed distance
from any church or school building.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
70 CAPITALISTS,
Rare Securities for d Loan of $780,
000-Bids Will be Received Up
TO August |, 1908.
BERNARD GONDER.

The incorporates and directors Of
the Youghiogheny Light and Power
Company, and the Oakland, Swallow
Falls and Uniontown Electric Railway
Company, all of Garrett. county, Mary
land, will soon execute First Mortgages
on their franchises, options, rights of
way and all their assets and properties
of every description, as security for a
loan of $500, 600.
Their consulting engineers and eX-
perts estimate that this amount of
cash will be required to finance their
hydro electric plant, and the first divi-
sion of their Electric Railway from
Oakland to the plant
About $3.50, 600 will be expended in
the erection and equipment off hydro
electric plant that will be guaranteed
to develop at least ten thousand horse
power.
About $15O,0OO or so much thereof
as may be necessary to build and equip
standard guage electric railway from
Oakland to said hydro electric plant,
and pay all contingent expenses, such
as paying for right of way and the
costs of condemnation proceeding in
securing said rights of way, and also in
securing deeds for the optioned sites,
that are to be leased for one dollar a
years to all mills and factories that
agree to use their electric power, light
and heat, and all other necessary contin-
gent expenses.
A conservative estimate, made by ex-
perienced experts, is that the annual
income from the business of the hydro
electric plant alone will be sufficient to
pay six per cent interest on a capital
stock of four million dollars, if that
amount is necessary.
Private figures sustaining this dec
laration will be mailed to all applicants
for them.
Capitalists who desire to verify these
facts and statements can do so by meet
ing us at the Commercial Hotel, Oak
land, Md, when we will pilot them, as
far as they want to go, into this Won
derfully rich undeveloped region of lOO,-
600 acres.
Bidders for these first mortgages
will please name their lowest rates of
interest to be paid on these mortgages,
as well as their very lowestrcommis-
sions for negotiating the loans.
All bids will be opened at our offices,
in room No. IA, in the First National
Bank Building, Oakland, Md, on the
first day of August, 1908, and the low
est bidder Will be promptly notified by
telegraph to come on and close the deal.
Respectfully,
H. p. TAsKER,
General Manager Youghioghenv Light
