can have additional senator's also. and
the whole principle upon which the leg
islative department is based is to be
changed by a new constitution. The
checks and balances between the city
and counties ought to be maintained as
it is, or the balance of power will be
permanently given oyer to the city of
Baltimore
Paris may be France, but the coun-
ties of this state are not yet willing
to declare in their Constitution that
Baltimore is Maryland, for if the rep
resentation of Baltimore is increased,
the counties will be ut the mercy of the
city and will have to ed meekly from
her hand. The countie. hus far have
always been fair to the CT in meeting
every proper demand, anG certainly
have given no cause for serious COM
plant
There is as much reason for the states
of New York and Pennsylvania demand
ing an increase of the number of sena-
tors in the Congress by reason OF their
great population, as compared with
other states, as for the city of Baltimore
to demand more state senators for a
similar reason. 1t is very important
that the counties of the state, irrespec-
tive of party, awaken to the danger
threatened by this proposal, before, by
submission to it, they have lost all sub
stantial influence in the General Assem-
bly, of the state.
The editors of the Baltimore Sun,
who are conducting the fight for the
city of Baltimore, have restricted the
discussion of this question in its col
umns to arguments in favor of the pro-
posed change in the constitution, and it
behooves the press of the counties to
bring home to their people the danger
that menaces the public welfare by
this effort to make Baltimore supreme
and, when another Freeman Rasin
arises to pollute the politics of the city,
to make him the arbiter of the destinies
of the state as well.

WILL HAVE THREE NORMALS
In Garrett County This Summer-At
GrantSville, Friendsville and
Oakland,

At a meeting of the School Board
held on last Friday it was decided to
have three normals for a term of eight
weeks at the following places: Grants
vile, Mr.. c. c. Cathcart, principal;
Friendsville, Mr.. H. W. Browning,
principal; Oakland. Mr.. L. G. Palmer,
principal, and Mr.. A. W. Dewitt, as
sistant The schools will open on April
18th and close on June 4th.
On June 18th the Summer Training
School will open in Oakland for a term
of three weeks with Messrs U. G. Pal
mer, A W. Dewitt and r. S. Gibson
as instructors. Some one yet to be Sc
lected will have charge of the primary
work in this school.
The examination of teachers will take
place during the last week of the train
ing school term and the examination on
Course of Studywill occur on June 2Sth.
All teachers who taught during the
years 1909 and who attend the eight
weeks normal and the training school
may have their certificates renewed
without examination except on Course
of Study. No tuition charge will be
made for the training school course to
the teachers who attend the eight
weeks normal, but those who do not
attend the normal will be charged $3.50
| for the training school course. Teach
ers coming from other counties will
have to pay SO for the course. At the
close of the training school certificate
will be issued and signed by the faculty
certifying that the holder had attended
the course. These certificates will be
free to all teachers.
The DID, tried end true teachers can
merit a certificate good for five years
with chance of renewal We feel this
is due some of our teachers and we feel
also that we have some teachers who
ought to be exempt from further exam
nation during their future manifest
skill and interest; but we feel also that
we have many teachers in the county
from whom we mt st expect considera-
bic improvement in the future in both
academic ability and professional skill
before the standard of education can
reach plane approaching perfection.
The degree of perfection, in the future
of our schools must depend on the grade
and perfection of our corps of teachers
To this end the board will work scrupu-
lousy and untiringly.
We suggest that during the eight
weeks normal close attention be give
the study of text books used in the
county, carefully noting and bringing
all difficult points to the training school
for solution
For this years work we predict great
success and at the State Teachers As
ISOLATION at Mountain Lake Park, to be
held June 29-July 2, we anticipate a
pleasure for our teachers such as they
have never before had

MOUNTAIN LAKE PARK.

The lnvincibles." the Young mems
bible class of the NJ. !E. S. s., held the
regular monthly business meeting and
social at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. }. A.
Hayden, Friday evening last. In the
absence of the president Rev J. W.
Bolton occupied the chair. Before tax
ing up the business of the evening
song was rendered by the class, which
was followed by Scripture reading and
prayer by Rev C. w. Hudson of the
Baptist church. The roll was then call
ed, showing thirty-one members pres
ent. Five new members were enrolled
among the number being DR.. w. w.
Davis and Rev. c. w. Hudson, making
total membership of fifty three. The
business of the evening being disposed
of the meeting closed with prayer by
DIR. Davis, and the social program was
rendered consisting of piano solos and
songs by Miss Maize Provost and Miss
Edna Chance, recitations by Miss June
Huntington, and songs by the class
quartette. The music by Miss Provost
and the recitations by Miss Huntington
were much enjoyed. During the even
ing short talks were given by DR.. Davis
and Revs. Hudson and Bolton. After
the entertainment refreshments con-
sisting of several varieties of cake and
orange punch were served to the class
and their guests, fifty-two in all, Misses
Maize Provost, June Huntington and

bowl. The occasion was enjoyed by all
present. The next meeting will be at the
parsonage on the evening of the second

DR.. W. W. Davis, superintendent of
Mountain Lake Park. fears there will
be no ice harvest on Mountain Lake
this year. DR.. Davis has improved the
ice harvesting facili ties at the lake and
could cut 100 tons an hour He has ar
ranged for work day and night in event
there should be freeze. He has har-
vested small quantity of ice about five
inches thick for local use, but has been
unable to get ice of sufficient thickness
to fill his big contracts, one being to
furnish the Baltimore and Ohio railroad
10000 tons. The ice harvest on Noun
tain Lake is quite an industry and the
community will feel the loss should
there be no freeze. Late last week
week there was ice on the lake but the
present thaw has rendered it unfit for
harvesting.
Indications point to Mountain Lake
Park having the best season in its his
tory this year 1t is thought from the
interest being shown that it will open
with more people at the resort than
ever before. The schedule at the park
includes the following: Young Women
Christian Association under the auspices
of the International committee of the
Young Woman's Christian Association,
June 25-July S; Maryland State Teach
ers' Association, June 29-July 2; Home
Mission Church Extension Conference,

August l; Mountain Chautauqua,
month of August.
The Christian Workers Conference
will be on the same general plan as
that at Mortified, Mass, founded by
Dwight l.. Moody. 1t will be in charge
of DR.. Henry Ostrom. About 400 dele
gates will attend the meeting of tbs
Young WOmen's Christian Association.
This organization holds a series of nine
conferences in the summer in various
sections of the country and the one at
Mountain Lake Park is known as the
East Central Conference College Sec
ton. Last year 26S delegates attended
the conference and among them were
nine girls from Wellesley College, Mass.
In all 70 schools were represented.
College day of the conference was
nOtable occasion.
An effort is being made to establish
a State Teachers Training School for
Maryland at Mountain Lake Park. The
project has the encouragement of Gov
ernor Crothers and State Supernten-
dent NJ. Bates Stephens. If the school
is opened it would likely be right after
the meeting of the State Teachers As
ISOLATION and would last probably a
month. The fine air at Mountain Lake
Park which is $500 feet above sea level
is conducive to study. Last year at
least 200 Maryland teachers went to
training schools of other states. From
Wicomico county alone, q teachers
went to the training school at the Uni
versity of Virginia.

rHE ACCIDENT GRANTS
VILE GEOLOGIC FOLIO.
Important New Publication by United
States Geological Survey.

The latest addition to the geologic
map of the country which is in prepare
ton by the United States Geological
Survey and is being issued in parts
called folios, describes two adjoining
areas situated for the most part in the
northwest corner of Maryland. BY the
Survey these areas are called the Acct
dent and Grantsville quadrangles. each
covers One-siXteenth of square degree,
or about 230 square miles Nearly all
the area of these quadrangles is in Gar
rett county, Md, but a strip about 2
miles wide, extending.across the north
ern edge of both uuadrangles, lies in
Fayette and Somerset counties, Pa,
and another strip thirds of a mile
wide on the western edge of the Acct
dent quadrangle is in dispute between
Garrett county. Md, and Preston coun-
ty, W. Va. The largest towns of the
Accident quadrangle are Friendsville
and Accident, Md; those ofithe.Grants-
vile quadrangle are Salisbury, Pa, and
Grantsville and Barton. Nd.
These quadrangles were surveyed in
cooperation with the Maryland Geo
logical Survey, the field work having
been completed by G. c. Martin, now
of the Federal Survey, while he was
still member of the State organiza-
ton, and the folio was prepared under
the supervision of William Bullock
Clark, the cooperating geologist. Full
discussions of the areas are published
also in reports issued by the Maryland
Geological Survey, particularly in those
on Garrett county, by Mr.. Martin.
The areas contain important mineral
resources, as yet in very early stage
of development. Coal is now, and will
probably long continue to be the most
important product; but deposits of fire
clay have been found which are ex-
tremelY promising, and it is not I'M
likely that this and other important
clay and cement industries will be
established in the future. The supply
of limestone in this region is inexhaust-
ible, but it has been drawn upon only
for local use. Iron-ore deposits similar
"a those which in neighboring regions
Dive been of great value in the past
are also found here, yet they hold only
remote possibilities for future develop
ment. Some of the sandstones and
imestones are suita lie for local use as
building stone and road material
Portions of the areas poorer in miner
al deposits contains rocks from which a
rich soil has been formed. These re-
gions will be much benefited through
the development of the mining areas,
by the market which will thus be pro-
vided for agricultural products, and
the mining regions will in turn receive
much benefit from being surrounded by
rich and prosperous farming regions.
The folio text describes IN detail the
areal distribution, sequence, and struc-
ture of the rocks and the valuable min

St. Paul Leads War OH the Armour

Headed by Mayor D. w. LAWYER or
st. Paul leading business men OF that
city and prominent men throughout
the state have declared war on the
proposed establishment of the new
Armour Packing company plant on
the site already purchased near New
Brighton and adjacent to principal
districts of both St. Paul and Mime
apolis. Bills have been introduced IN
the state legislature which will pre-
vent the establishment of the plant on
this site and compel the selection OF
q new location farther removed from
the city. The present proposed site
is located with reference to principal
points as follows:
From the state university, with Its
5000 students, two and three-quarter
miles.
From East Minneapolis, from two
to three miles.
From the state agricultural school,

should outweigh the existence Of nau-
seous odors and that the damage to
state institutions and residence dis
tricts Is compensated for by the gem
eral benefits Of the industry. r. J..
Durham Of Armour & Co., confidential
representative of Mr.. Armour, said In
an authorized statement:
"Chicagoans with pardonable pride
point to the greatness Of their packing
industry and they have concrete evil
dence Of the efficiency Of the doors
which come from the stock yards.
They are not altogether pleased with
the doors, but they possess the phil
osophy which permits them to see the
benefits to the city which arise from
the industry
odors Would Remain.
''The st. Paul plant would be thor.
oughly up to date, but 1t would not be
free from characteristic odors. They
might be disagreeable, but they
would not be dangerous to health"
Mayor Lawler. in answer to these
arguments, says:
we want the Armour company to
come to Minnesota; we want compet1-
ton, but 1t is possible to have it and
so locate the new plant SO that it will
accomplish all that and still be a
nuisance to no one, except those who
voluntarily choose to locate by the
side of it.

state Of Minnesota want their sons
and daughters educated at the state
