The canning season for 1909 Is thing Of the

Al Bellaire, Md, to look after his political in
terests, as he is candidate for 3 lucrative

aidate for any office, and could our citizens go
~ his home and give their franchise they
would be happy to do so. He has made =
wonderful success this season and put up over
