HAS BROUGHT FORTH
WORDS OF COMMENTATOR
another Contributor" Voices His
Sentiments Concerning Oakland.

To the Editor of The Republican,:
The article in your issue of the 23rd
inst, criticising the calamity bowler,
the loafer, and calling attention to much
needed industries, was read with con-
siderable interest. So far, so good.
The criticisms contained in that letter
were not uncalled for Now the CUES
ton is, will the suggestions go unheed-
ed?
| wish the author of the letter re-
ferred to had gone still farther in his
forceful manner of criticising things
and mentioned, for instance, the un-
slightly condition of our streets and dan
gerous conditions of the old dilapidated
sidewalks throughout the town.
| do not know how many millenniums
will be required for our people to adj
vance far enough in civilization that the
saloon and all its attendant and unnec-
essary evils will be abolished, but there
certainly is sufficient civic pride and
aesthetic taste in our little city to pre-
vent the stacking of dirty, vile smelling
beer kegs, empty boxes and other I'M
slightly and unnecessary distractions
upon the sidewalks.
Again. young America has gone wild
in anticipation of the glorious Fourth
by congregating in public places, shoot
ing off fire crackers, footing their filthy
vulgar bazoos, and engaging in sour
rllous and obscene conversation to the
annoyance and inconvenience of those
who have legitimate business on the
streets. II some of the money spent
by the county in SOLDERING DRINKS were
spent in boarding some of these useless,
vulgar little nuisances, their parents
might find more profitable employment
or other rendezvous for them.
The State road, which means so much
to Garrett county, will soon be COM
pleted to the corporate limits of Oak
land. | hope the city fathers and coun-
ty officials will macadamize or pave the
two or three blocks of our street con
Meeting up with this State road before
the snow flies again.
If these suggestions are good, let US
see to it that something is done i'm
mediately to bring about better state
Of affairs. If am wrong just drop
around some cold day and let me know

RELIEVED Of $4,000 IN
GARRETT COUNTY BONDS
Hiram NJ. Frazee, of SelbyspOrt, Sui
fered Considerable Monetary Loss.

Mr., Hiram M. Frazee, retired mer-
chant and farmer of Selbysport, Garrett
county, suffered the loss of five thousand
dollars worth of Garrett county court
house bonds few days ago by having
the securities stolen from his residence
at Selbysport by some party or parties
unknown.
Mr.. Frazee purchased the bonds
from Cumberland and Frostburg finan-
cial institutions several months ago and
kept them in his home instead of de-
posting them in a more secure place.
Judging from the manner in which the
theft was committed there is no doubt
that the party who committed the crime
was thoroughly acquainted with the
place where the bonds were kept and
that the work of the theft was adroitly
done.
Mr.. Frazee was in Oakland a few days
ago but did not intimate to any one that
he had suffered the loss of his property,
but since that time the matter has leak
ed out. Detectives are at work on the
case and the securities may be recover

SAFE BLOWERS MADE
A PRETTY BIG HAUL
Monday Night When They Robbed the
Office otthe Kendall Supply Company.

Last Monday night some time be-
tween the hours of midnight and day
light the massive safe in the office of
Kendall Supply Company at Crellin,
four miles southwest of Oakland, was
blown to pieces by safe crackers and
money and postage stamps amounting
to about five hundred dollars carried off.
The room in which the safe was To-
Gated was almost entirely wrecked,
pieces of iron being blown through the
ceiling and roof of the building, a new
type writer demolished, and the safe re-
duced to scrap iron. The thieves also
enter the store room and wreckrd cash
register in an attempt to get at the
money contained therein, but secured
only a portion of the contents.
As soon as the discovery was made
that the theft had been committed
bloodhounds were taken to Crelln from
tairmont and an effort made to track
the thieves. The dogs followed a scent
for about ten miles up the railroad track
toward Conneway's from Crellin but
lost the trail at the Miller place and all
efforts to again pick it up were unsuc-
cessful.
Aside from the actual money loss to
the firm their building and Its contents
were damaged to an extent of about
$500.

OUR July WEATHER
According to the Forecast of Progn0s-
ticatOr Peter Rothermal Smith.

July is most likely to be supplied with
refreshing rains up to the middle of the
month. After that period the quantity
will likely be much limited The out
look to the above period is favorable,
but later on in the month the showers
are sure to break into narrow divisions
running off into local showers. While
some localities may have enough of
moisture other places will be without
any rain.
The clouds through the latter part of
July and August will be charged with
much buster The month will have
two excessive heated periods. The first
will be between the End and 5th. The
second hot wave will develop between
the 25th and Goth.
A storm wave of much vigor will de-
velop about the End or Bird and be on
transit on the 4th, touching all parts of
the country with wind, showers of rain
and thunder as it moves or east. A
cool wave will follow on the heels of
the storm.
A wave of disturbance will develop
on the 9th, 10th and 18th, which may
discharge refreshing showers of rain
which may be continued to the 18th.
Westerly winds and cooler weather will
follow the rain wave
A period of weather disturbance will
prevail from the 18th to the 18th. The
general character of the period will be
in the changes of temperature, direction
of air currents, cloud formation and dis
ruption, buster and light scattering
showers, and in places refreshing
showers will show up. When these
conditions pass on east the weather will
become cooler.
On the 21st, 22nd and 23rd some dis
turbance will prevail, such as scatter
ing thunder showers, wind and change
of air currents.
A storm period will prevail from the
9th to the Both, which will be heated
period The conditions that will pre-
vail will cause the air currents to flow
for several DAYS from the south, causing
a heated wave. Thunder showers.
wind and some rain will show up at a
number of localities. When these con-
ditIons pass off the weather will be
. cooler.
