DR.. Wells Backs Stanley

DR.. George Wells, clerk of the Cir
cult Court for Anne Arundel county
and admittedly the strongest Demo-
cratic leader in the county, has an
nounced that he will support Mr.. Chas.
H. Stanley, of this county, for the
Democratic Nomination in the
Fifth Congressional District. DR..
Wells support of Mr.. Stanley makes
it certain that he will pole a large vote
in Anne Arundel and obtain a substan-
tial plurality.
The support of DR.. Wells is particu-
larry valuable, as Anne Arundel con-
tains the largest voting population of
any county in the district.

Young German and His Opposition to
Charles H. Stanley

The following was clipped from the
Baltimore Evening Sun:
To the Editor of the Evening Sun:
Will you permit an old Confederate
soldier to say that when young German
attempts to minimize Charles H. Stan
ley and say his strength is only in his
own county and among Confederate
soldiers, that he forgets that there is
where every good and true man has
and ought to have strength, and that
there are very few Democratic voters
in Southern Maryland who are not
either true Confederate soldiers, like
Mr.. Stanley, who fought for Demo-
cratic principles, or the sons, descend
ants or near relatives of the old
Confederate soldiers; and that when
shorn of his fulsome fattery of Mr..
Ray he is helping whom he would hurt
and calling attention to no claim of Mr..
Ray, for the people know both, and
such comparisons are odious."

Hail Cut Tobacco Crop

DR.. Richard S. Hill, who has made
a more thar casual survey of the a
ages of the hg1 storm which swept
through here with such terrific force
on Wednesday night of last week, par
ticularly with reference to the tobacco
crop, said recently:
Il have been pretty well over the
storm area in Prince Georges, Calvert,
and Anne Arundel counties. The dam
g will amount to a complete loss of
at least 1000 hogsheads of tobacco in
these three counties, besides many
crops partially damaged, and thus max
ing inferior tobacco.
''This is particularly unfortunate, as
the crops this year were especially
good, good seed having been carefully
sci ected by most of the planters, and a
general enthusiasm in the crop due to
the good prices which have been pre-
vailing.
''Other crops have also been serious
lv curtailed, such as corn, cowpeas,
sorghum, fruit and winter vegetables
Tomatoes and potatoes were the specla
victims of the storm, and were literally
cut to pieces.
"In places where the hail skipped
over, the violence of the wind seems tt
have been greater, doing great damage
to the fruit and blowing down corn ant
tobacco. This is especially noticeable il
Calvert county, where several barns
and buildings were destroyed.
, 'It will be necessary for many O.
the farmers and tenants who were in
jured by the storm to sell off their liv'
stock for lack of provender during tn
winter. This comes at an inopportun
time, as the assessors had just starte'
work, and of course much property Wi
be thus taken off the books"

The Tournament at Mitchellsville.

One of the most largely attended
tournaments ever held in Southern
Maryland took place on Thursday of
last week in a beautiful grove of oaks
near Mitchellsville, this county, under
the auspices of Camp No. II, SOC,
Modern Woodmen of America. There
was fitting in the amateur and pro-
fessional classes, and some of the riding
was spirited. William L. Heron, of
Hyattsville riding as the Knight of
Budweiser, captured first money in the
professional classes and crowned Miss
Dorothy Beall, of Washington, queen;
in the amateur class, John C.. Beall;
knight of D~avidsonville, was first, with
eight out of nine rings, and he crowned
Miss Josephine Roberts, of this county,
queen; in the novice class, Ora Arnold,

third maid.
The professional riders did not per-
from until quite late in the afternoon,
but the interest was not in the least
abated by the other events: There
were not many entries, but those that
did contest did fine work. The first
prize was awarded William l.. Heron,
of Hyattsville, Knight of Budweiser,
and he crowned Miss Dorothy Beall, of
Washington, who is now stopping with
the Misses Nellie and Blanche Hyatt,
at Mitchellsville.

ion through Bemidji Lodge, No 1852,

ciples of which the order of Elks is
founded, to give Sliberally to charity
and charitable purposes; and where.
ever there is an Elks' lodge there, an
nually S given, unostentatiously, aid

to be such. Committees on charity
are appointed, whose names are
never revealed to anyone not an Elk.

in such a manner as to cause no
embarrassment or wound sen.
sative natures. 1t is by these chart

times referred to as the Best People
on Earth" >-.-.. -. !.

Whereas, the representation of the

Whereas, this condition is contrary both

principle of right and justice
Be it resolved that this Association

equitable reapp ortionment be made at the
coming session of the legislature to take
