WASHINGTON LETTER.
tFRoM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT

(FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT
WASHINGTON, D. c., SEPT. 18TH.
Not for several years has the Capt.
tai experienced such an early awak-
ening from it's summer stupor as is
promised this year. Contrary to all
expectations based on late experience
that each year would see fashionable
and official folk lingering longer over
their vacations, next week, the second
in September, will see the President
and his family established at the
White House and large contingent
of the Diplomatic and official sets
back in the city. The White House
has been put in readiness for the
President and the annual cleaning
which requires nearly all of the sum
mer and $50, 600 has been completed.
The mansion, has had coat of paint
outside and been thoroughly renovat-
ed in the interior in way to make
Il New England housekeepcr's soul
thrill with JOY, though SO extrava-
CANT as to fill her with dismay. Ger
tain rooms are carpeted anew each
year, and though the amount of en-
tertaining that is done during the
the winter and spring does give the
carpets severe wear it is doubtful if
the President or any other man would
buy new carpets without making some
effort to see what cleaning and re-
making and other expcdients might
be tried to make the old ones look
better than when they were new. In
the case of the White House though
the President has nothing to say
about it, Mrs. Roosevelt may express
a desire for few more hooks in her
wardrobe, or suggest a Encouragement
of the furniture but the purchases
are made by order of the Supcrin-
trndcnt of Public Buildings and
Grounds and he is responsible for
seeing that the $50, 900 a year appro-
priated by Congress for the up keep
of the White House shall be expend-
ed to the last cent. Among the odd
items in the bill for summers refur-
nishing each year is a new cooking
range for the large kitchen where all
of the State dinners are prepared.
For people who regard a kitchen
range as a life time possession to be
passed down with the house to future
generations q new cook stove each
and every year seems reckless and
incomprehensible extravaganza but
perhaps they don't think so along
Fifth Avenue and Newport either.
On the other hand it may be seen
that a course of petty economies
might soon result in an unhygienic
and uncomfortable house for the
President so that Congress has always
been liberal in its appropriation for
that purpose.

BASEBALL NEWS.
Seasons Last Game.

The last game of Thurmont's most sue
cessful baseball season will be played
here on Saturday afternoon, Sept. 18th,
at .. M, when team representing
the Western Maryland Railroad of Hag-
erstown will cross bats with the local

son.

all the neighboring towns and the largest
local crowd of rooters of the season is

ity mark 1.-THE Red Letter Day" for

Get Enough.

If the town decides to use the gasoline

taxpayers won't object to the expense if
they get results. Take poll of the town
and see how overwhelming the sentiment
will be in this direction.

TO THE VOTERS

| wish to deny most emphatically,
both for my brother, w. d. Graham,
and for myself, that he or l, or either
of us, have combined with any other
candidate, for the purpose of working
together, or trading votes, as has been
circulated on the streets of Ocala
and elsewhere; and wish to state that
such reports are utterly false and ma
liciOusly intended to injure him in
his candidacy.
We will vote an entire ticket for
those we consider best fitted for the
Offices for which they aspire, but have
not, nor will hereafter enter into any
combination of candidates, nor trade
votes.
His campaign has been cleanly con-
Quoted from the beginning. Such crit
iciSm as has been made of the closing
of the collectors office has been made
in a friendly spirit, without personal
malice, or without any personalities.
We have not, nor will we hereafter
indulge in any unfairness or personal
tiles, either publicly or by circula-
tons, preferring that he be defeated
rather than speak an i'll word of his
opponent.
In justice TO Mr.. Carney, l will say
that We do not believe that he is re-
sponsible for these reports, OF that
he is cognizant of the fact that they
have been circulated.
Very respectfully,
JOHN NJ. GRAHAM.

! lltlcal career ne was the pronounced
choice of what is known as the Stock

party, and though never in his life

or special counsel for any corporation

that. he is not d peoples man"
incidentally Mr. Browne says that
II is discovered by this faction that
no man is a peoples man" that hap
pens to aspire for an Office that the
heads of this faction covet.
Mr.. Browne stated his position
very clearly CT the primary system,
on the railroad rate regulations. on
the prohibition question: and indeed
on all questions paramount in this
campaign.
He says that the primary pledges
ought TO apply to all alike-to the
beneficiaries of the system as well as
to those who are not it's benefiCiar-
les.
Mr.. Browne says that if he is elec--
ed governor of Florida he will be gov

Office, he will be governed in his ap-

Browne read an extract from the Tai
lahaSSee Sun, recognized as a person

ton, which admitted that Mr.. Stock
ton is bitter partisan"
Mr.. Browne said that he recognized
the fact that OCala is a wet city, but
that he made the same speeches in
Tampa, Key West, Miami, Apalachi-
cola and other wet towns that he
made in strong prohibition centers.
He stands unequivOCally for a state
prohibition law. He does not believe
that the state can be half wet and
half dry any more than the nation
could exist half slave and half free.
He said that either prohibition must
be made a complete victory or a COM
plete surrender. That his whole life
had been along the lines of moral and
political upliftment, and whether elect
ed or defeated his life shall still be
devoted to the triumph of causes he
believed TO be for the purity and ele-
walton of the manhood and woman
hood of the state.
In closing Mr.. Browne paid a very
elegant tribute to the purity and in
f1uenCe of women in all causes in
which they take part, and thanked
them for their presence on this occas-
ion
The chairman of the meeting thank
ed Mr.. Browne for the honor he had
done OcaIa in beginning and ending
his campaign here, and for the distia-
guished courtesy shown us he felt
justified and authorized in extending
to him on behalf of the citizens of our
little city vote of thanks.
