that his support will be withdrawn
if the Governor continues his pres

BALTIMORE GIRL

A wedding Of unusual interest
will take place June /. when Miss
Nellie Montgomery Matthews,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Nicholas
Martin Matthews, of this city, after
a journey of $1,000 miles, will. be
married to Ensign Reen Marquette
Fawell, of Lincoln, Neb., who is
commanding the United States gun
boat Samar, stationed at Hongkong,
China. Miss Matthews has not seen
her fiance for four years.
Ensign Fawell is a member of the
class Of 1905, Of the Naval Academy,
at Annapolis, and it was at the acad-
envy hops that he met the BRIDE
elect. Four years ago he was order
ed to the Philippines, and, as he ex-
pected to return in a couple of years,
the engagement was announced and
the wedding was to have taken place
Easter, two years ago, but Ensign
Fawell was ordered to Japan and
later to China. He had expected to
return to this country this month,
and the wedding was to have taken
place shortly after his arrival.
Finding that he would have to re-
main in China for three more years,
the bride went to Washington and
gained an interview with President
Roosevelt, to ask if he could not be
ordered home, but the interview
availed nothing and Miss Matthews,
accompanied by her mother, will
leave on Tuesday morning for Van
couver. from which point she will
sail by the Empress of India for To-
kio, and will go straight to Hong
kong, where the wedding will take
place Immediately upon her arrival,

American consul. Baltimore Amer

Made Insane.

Lancaster, KY, May IA James
Merford, young farmer, who lives
nine miles northeast of Lancaster, is
a raving maniac as a result Of read
ing the stories of the Iawless deeds of
night riders. He thinks the riders are
after him, and was heavily armed
when arrested. He is a brother of
Postmaster Merford, of Bourne, this
county.

LATEST MOVE.

The Pembroke Journal says ex-
ditement has been created there by
the receipt of night rider letters by
all of the grocers and two druggists,
written on a typewriter and mailed
on the train, which read:
ITO whom it concerns: You are
not to buy any more goods on Hop.
kinsville or GAINESVILLE markets from
this date. N, R."
The Journal says "the night rider
letters do not come from the officials
of the association, but may come
from persons who think they are
working in the interest of the or
ganization." The same paper says
bitterness against Hopkinsville and
GAINESVILLE exists from maintaining
military guards and sending soldiers
out into the country under cover OF
night, and also the organization OF
secret societies known as law and
order leagues. Almost every farmer
believes that the law and order
leagues were formed to combat the
organization which has saved him
from slavery, and that the militia of
the state has been and is being used
TO intimidate him and compel him to
surrender to an enemy whom he has
Virtually conquered"
The Journal does not condemn the
movement, but says mo steps can
be taken to straighten out matters,
because no one knows who. is push
ing the boycott" 1t further pre-
diets, with seeming confidence, that
these letters are almost certain to be
followed, as they have been in other
sections, by warnings against patron
'izing retail houses in the towns to
be boycotted."
1t is not believed that the farmers
have had anything to do with the
movement. 1t is also doubtful if the
night riders, as such, are concerned
in it. There has been no night rid
ing in this county for nearly three
months. The trust" buyers are
going unmolested into night rider
stroDgholds and buying association
tobacco every week. The association
farmers are denouncing night riding
and association members on the
grand juries are performing their
duties without fear or favor in many
counties. The association has nc
cause to boycott the cities whose
dealers are buying association to-
bacco at association prices righ'
along. Nor is it believed that any
one who is opposed to night riding
looks on law and order leagues as
menace to the farmers or to bust
ness.
The Journal is perhaps right wher
it says: They may have come from
a thousand different sources, all for
eign to the tobacco fight"
The probabilities are that the let
tiers were written by parties inter
ested in other markets and that the!
will have but little bearing on tn,
tobacco question.

DEPOSITORS WILL BE PROTECTED.

The outcome of the panic is
certain to produce one beneficial
result. The depositors in banks
are going to receive some protec-
ton in the future. Since Okla
homa has taken advanced steps
along the lines advocated by Mr.
Bryan the hands of adjoining
states and those OF the nation it
self are being forced. On the
heels of the announcement that
Oklahoma National banks were
asking for the privilege of availing
themselves of the benefits of the
state law, to protect themselves
from losing their deposits to the
state banks, comes the announce
ment that Kansas will call a
special session of their legislature
to adopt similar legislation to
keep Kansas money from going to
Oklahoma for safe keeping Then
N-braska's governor discovers
that under their bank examiner
act they can adopt similar mea-
sures without the formality of
legislation.
The tide has set in the direction
of protecting depositors and it
will not ebb till some modicum of
relief is found, and besides those
states that provide the best protec-
ton will get the timid money
from other states. Also the Ma
tional banks can no longer rely
entirely on the force of nam c
that means actually nothing
There never was a reason why a
National bank could be considered d
particle stronger than a private
one. The inspection about which
they boosted was a perfunctory
task hurriedly gone over. and in
many instances the inspected bank
closed its doors before the ex-
aminer got well started for home.
The people will put their money
in the private banks in those
states that provide for protection
unless the Nationals give them
something besides promises. Yes,
the panic has not been entirely
devoid of good results. 1t will
lead to a new system OF banking
Depositors will not lose by bank
failures much longer. Hereafter
it will be the banks themselves
that will do the losing and as a
result we may confidently expect
many less failures.

They indicate the trend of Eng

the item and wondered if they in
tended to appropriate Paonia $

we notice them harping on the
same subject again and again. OF
course if Montrose has to have
that mine we will give it up. We
have plenty of others and can
spare half dozen if Montrose
needs them. The mine in question
is a good one, located four miles
