school premises in a sanitary condition
at the proper time.
Who is to blame?
And what does the great County Su-
perintendent of the public schools of
Garrett county mean by forbidding the
teaching of physiology, spelling, United
States history, geography, and mental
arithmetic in the High School and
taking the books on these subjects
away from the pupils? While it is true
on these subjects were studied in the
lower grades have they been so thor
oughly mastered that there is no more
that can be learned in them in the High
School? Or, is it Mr. Browning's object
to make the pupils feel that the school
is no good and drive them home in dis
gust and close it up? There are teach
ers in charge of the school, entirely
competent, who ask no odds of Mr..
Browning or any of his associates as to
qualifications or ability to teach and to
manage the school to the satisfaction
of the pupils and thel public if given
reasonable opportunity.
Moreover, we believe in the matter
of an examination, that in an out-and-
out, fair and square test there are pupils
in the Oakland schools who could show
the County Superintendent few things
that he never knew before.
Why doesn't this man Browning get
out into the country and visit the schools
as required by law instead of hanging
around Oakland and handicapping, bull
lyragging and trying every mean little
device in his power to cripple the High
School? Or better still, now that he
has lost the confidence and respect of
the public not only in Oakland but in all
sections of the county, and his efficien-
cy as Superintendent entirely at an
end, why doesn't he pass in his resigna-
ton like man and give US relief from
this long period of gag rule under
which we are groaning?
Must the pubic submit forever to the
dictation of set of men whose am
bition seems to wreck the only accredit-
ed High School of the county by provid-
ing neither suitable quarters, nor ade-
quate furniture, nor books, nor water,
nor outbuildings only such as are a dis
grace even to the name?
1t is time for the people to rouse
themselves and demand their rights
and the rights of their children.
Thou art beside thyself, Edward;
Much learning hath made thee mad

Orphans Court Proceedings.

Tuesday the semi-monthly session of
the Orphans Court for Garrett county

sentiment in the State may be largely
responsible for his retirement, there
can be no doubt that his friendliness to
the men who murdered former Senator
E. W. Carmack, eliminating in his
pardon of the elder Cooper within a
few minutes after the Supreme Court
of the State had sustained Cooper's
conviction, has been the determining
factor. Patterson has received a popu-
lar rebuke which he could not with
stand, and his enforced retirement to
private life does much to redeem a
shameful condition of affairs in Ten
nessee.

RAILROADS MAY BE ALLOWED
 TO INCREASE THEIR RATES

roads, there will unquestionably be a tremendous howl throughout the coun- try. Some observers who have been hear ing the gossip growing out of the hear ings during the last few days claim that if there is one thing needed to bury, the republican party and remove its last chance of electing It's presidential candi- date in 1912, it will be a decision of this sort. It is admitted that the advanced rates asked for will, if granted, increase the revenue of the railroads approximate ly $l00,000000 a year. The statement was made on the stand today by MT. Barlow that no one can escape the conclusion that this money will all come out of the pockets of the consumers.
 The report has been. current for some time that President Taft intends to make Chairman Knapp chief judge of the new court of commerce created under the new railroad law. There are in the Senate numbersof republican senators who bit terly fought that railroad law, and whose sympathies are wholly with the shippers in this hearing to protest against the increased freight rates, and if the rail- roads win in this fight and Chairman Knapp is named by MT. Taft for the new court it is intimated here tonight there may be some difficulty about his confir- nation by the Senate.

washington, November 26.-(special)- While it's never a safe thing to forecast the decision of a court, the representa- tiVes here of the shippers of the coun- try who are protesting before the inter state commerce commission against the pronosed increase in freight rates upon the part of the railroads, believe that the railroads will get a comforting verdict from the commission. They base this belief upon the speech of Chairman Mar tin Knapp of the commission in New York 10 days ago. and upon somewhat heated interchange that occurred this morning between Mir. Knapp and counsel for the shippers. It may be wholly wrong, but the impression is general in Washington that the commission is going to decide in favor of the railroads, and in the event of their doing so there is much speculation as to the effect both commercially and politically.
 The feeling is privately expressed by the shippers that Judge Knapp is against them, having ready made up his mind that the advanced rates are justiiable and they fear that majority of his col leagues agree with them. Should this view turn out to be a correct one and the commission decide in favor of the rail-

ENGLISH SOCIAL AFFAIRS
BY LADY MARY MAINTAINING

London November 26.-(Special.) )- Old customs die hard in England. Es- pecially is this true about matters which have to do with land tenure apd territorial privileges.
 In the olden days the lords of the land were required to make service or payment for their holdings which may have had value In those days but which are decidedly old in the twentieth century. Frequently the fact that these payments are made Is noted in the press. For example, by order -of the Duke of Buccleuch a notice has been issued calling upon residents of about 20 parishes in Warwickshire to attend at Knightlow Hill before sun rise on Martinmas eve and pay Wrotn silver.

If You Have Ringing Noises in
 the Ears, Pay Attention

If you have catarrh and also have ringing noises in your ears. it's high time you gave the matter serious atten- tion.
 One-half of the deafness in the world is caused by cAtarrh. The little ea- tarrhal microbes, consistently active, work their way from the membrane of the nose into the Eustachian tubes that lead directly from the nose to the ear.
 In this tube they set up a catarrhal condition, which, if not checked, re- suits in deafness.
 If you are deaf or partially deaf ands have reason to believe that catarrh is the cause, then you ought to get a HY- OMEI (pronounce 1t Htgh-o-me) outfit today and start at once to regain your hearing.
 HYOMEI kills the catarrh germs and cures catarrh. When your catarrh dis appears, your deafness will vanish.

It Is now only matter of days before Lord Kitchener will settle in Broome Park, the mansion he has acquired in Kent. His lordship since his return to town, has been ransacking London for old furniture.
 Last week I ran up against him at a well-known secondhand dealers in the West End, where he was inspecting a number of old English chairs and tables. Probably the young assistant attending to him marveled at the time at the ex- trsordinary knowledge his customer dis played in regard to the subject. During the whole time Kitchener scarcely spoke at all; he simply turned over each arti- cle that was shown him, minutely exam ined 1t, and with 8 curt that will do,' or 'T won't have that transacted his business; and hastily writing some in structions on his card, which he handed to the assistant, hurriedly left the shop as though he had never moment to spare.
