In regard to the matter of the state
treasurer taking interest on public
funds left in his keeping and fol
which he is held responsible, and the
proposal to make the future treasur.
ers turn such interest into the treas
ury, it is we'll to remember that it is
matter of some difficulty. No treas
urer of any responsibility would ac-
cept the office at 81 800 per year and
assume responsibility for the funds.
The responsibility is too great and the
difficulty Of securing bonds no small
one. 1t is very probable that to prop
erly arrange this matter will neces-
state a change in the constitution.
For the state to purchase an indem-
nifty bond for the treasurer would be
practically increasing that officers
salary, which, under the constitution,
cannot be done.

BIG LANDSLIDE ON THE GRADE
Tons of Earth and Rock Loosened by
Continuous Rains Blocked Traffic.

A tremendous landslide from the
mountain at Oss's Siding, a point locat-
ed near Frankville on the Seventeen
Mile Grade of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad, brought down upon the tracks
of that company hundreds of tons of
earth and rock about eleven O'Clock
TUESDAY, night, covering both tracks to
depth of more than twenty feet for
distance of about fifty feet
The slide caught a helping engine
which was going down the grade from
Altamont to Piedmont and overturned
the tender, thus making the blockade
of the tracks more effective.
The superintendent of the railway
soon had a large force.o Of men at work
clearing away the debris but it required
some eight or ten hours of more than
a hundred trackmen to open one of the
tracks.
Nearly all passenger trains moving
both east and west were detoured over
the Western Maryland and Pittsburg
Divisions, train No.E3 yesterday morn
ing, arrived here about three hours late,
being the first west boundT train to get
through.

FROM FITZGERALD. GEORGIA.
Rev. J. B. ShOup Writes of Conditions
In The South.

10 the Editor of The Republican,:
As the greater number of my init
mate friends among the readers of The
REPUBLICAN are llow-farmers, a word
or two about things agricultural Will
not be out of place.
March and April, 1908, will stand as
record breakers in precipitation. In
March we had four inches of rainfall
in 50 hours, and this month has given
US not less thar ten inches. Of course
this coming in few days, was Excess
sive, and considerable damage has re-
suited to the farmer. But we are not
greatly disheartened; we have some
things, and others coming. Peas, white
potatoes and new cabbage, with turnips,
asparagus, Strawberries and mulberries
are on the table, while corn tassel,
melon-bloom and cat-pods are showing,
with beans, tomatoes and cucumbers
formed. Replanting Of corn and cotton
is largely necessary. No frost since
the last day of February, and the gauge
has read up into the SOS. The Georgia
farmer has hope, and by spells seeks
the shade for comfort,
Times are hard down here; we Just
begin to realize this. Some things come
southwark slowly. The potato-bu
was 20 years finding our patches, and
money panics filter downward leisurely;
but both bugs and panics stick tight
when they get here. However things
financially may shape themselves with
you, we shall have tight squeezing for
year to come.
Hoke Smith wants another term as
Governor, and will have an uphill pull,
because the jug people say he brought
on the hard times by signing the Geor-
gia prohibition bill And this thirsty
crowd will fight him all the harder, be
cause it does prohibit, in very large
measure, at least There are lots of
thirsty people in dry Georgia to-day,
and they are good and mad" at every
thing that makes dry
But l started out to tell some Mary
land friends a thing or two. And first
of all: Don't come to Georgia just now
with lean purse. Lying is high and
wages low. But with money you could
not choose a better time. Hotels and
business houses will sell way down"
for year to come. If had a wagon
load Of money should put it into real
estate right here. A full set of country
buildings for new Ben He'll county must
90 up in Fitzgerald, additional railroads
and manufacturing plants are on the
way to US; and $Y0O,000 National
Soldiers Home is being pressed for in
Congress. With the soil, the climate,
the push and the 'pull-alI-together" we
will see 25, 900 ''at home" in Fitzgerald
Inside the next ten years.
We need very urgently crate-mak-
ing mill. and some Of CARROTS young
hustlers should come and set it going.

WATER WORKS AND
SEWERAGE PROPOSITION
Was Carried by an Exceedingly Large
Majority at Mondays Election.
VOTE STOOD 1879 FOR; So AGAINST
Bonds To The Amount of 500 900
Voted With Which to Install Sys-
IS tenn In All Parts of The Town
Source OF Supply Yet to be Found

At the special election held in Oak
land on Monday when the qualified
voters of the town decided by a large
majority to issue bonds for the purpose
of installing a water works and sewer
age system for the town, was a step
taken in the right direction. provided
the funds voted for the purpose are
ample to furnish the entire municipality
with the system.
The vote was taken at the Office of
the Board of Supervisors, and while
much interest was shown in the matter
and earnest work was done by those
fayorin as well as by those opposing
the issuaL-e Of the bonds, everything
was quite and in order.
A total of 241 ballots were cast, the
count revealing the startling fact that
OF the total vote cast only about one in
every four ballots were against the
proposition, the figures being 189 for
the bonds and only % against the meas
ure.
Under the law giving the citizens of
the town the right to vote upon the
question, it is provided that should the
vote be in favor of the proposition, then
the Mayor and Council shall issue bonds
to an amount not exceeding $50, 600, or
so much thereof as may be necessary
for the purpose Of establishing, con-
structing and maintaining water works
capable of furnishing the residents of
said town with a good and sufficient
supply Of water for ordinary purposes
and for fire protection, and for estab-
fishing, erecting, constructing and
maintaining a sewerage system in said
town for drainage and sewerage pur-
pose.
The voters having decided that the
town should establish such systems the
matter now rests with the Council.
That body will in all probability en-
ploy a competent water engineer who
will locate the source of supply, make
the necessary surveys and calculate the
probable cost. Should the $50, 600 be
sufficient to erect the system work will
be started at soon as possible. On the
other hand if the amount carried in the
law should be insufficient then the es-
Establishment of the system must be
postponed for at least two years, or un-
til the people by Legislative enactment
are again permitted to vote upon the
question carrying with it bond issue
OF larger amount.

SOME DRY SPOTS IN
GARRETT COUNTY.
New Local Option Law Prohibits Sale
Of Liquor in Prescribed Sections.
TOWN OF ACCIDENT is VERY ARID.
Other Retailers Refused Licenses On
Account of The RecOmmenders
Law Friendsvilie Dealers TO Test
Recent Election Held There.

The new local option law passed at
the recent session of the Maryland
Legislature, created at least one dry
spot in the county, that being the town
of Accident. where one saloon, operated
by f. c. Ries, has been in existence for
more than forty years with the excep-
ton of d year or two when the entire
county was dry. Efforts have been put
forth at regular intervals for the past
several years to make Accident dry, a
bill to this effect having been passed
two years ago, but was vetoed by Gov
ernor Warfeld. Last winter like
measure was introduced but was un-
favorably reported by the committee
and was killed in the House. The new
local option bill, however, turned the
trick, as Section II of the law, framed
in unmistakable language, says ''it
shall not be lawful to sell Intoxicating
liquors within one mile Of any school
house or church after the passage of
this act unless the same be situated
within the corporate limits OF an incor-
porated town" This being the law
Clerk Tower was prohibited from issu-
ing license to Mr.. Ries, hence Acct
dent is arid
Seemingly the above section affected
Accident only, as all others applying
for license under the local option law,
received the same. Under the provis-
ions of the recommenders' law, how
ever, license to sell was refused in the
case OF Charles D. Gillespie, of near
German, as his recommenders do not
reside within the limits prescribed by
the law radius of two miles where
he intended to conduct the saloon.
Friendsville dealers, who were forced
to close their places Of business on May
LIST, the residents of the town having
voted it dry at the election held early in
the spring, made tender Of the license
fee to the Mayor and Council of town,
and demanded that license be issued
them. This was refused and now they
are contemplating making a test case
of the matter by getting out manda-
mus compelling the corporate authori-
ties to grant them licenses.

Coffee Drinking in Pensacola.
In jacksonville they drink beer; in
Tampa wine is much in favor but in
Pensacola coffee is the drink that
cheers. With the fannie poison elm
mated it gives endurance to energy
and the working day in Pensacola is

unions. albeit there is time found for
recreation and social enjoyment
enough when the day Of work has
been worn into a shred. There may
