To The Democrats of Carroll Coun-
ty:-
By publication in the newspapers
Of the County, by letter and by per-
sonal visits 7 have recently made
every effort to make known general
ly to my fellow Democrats the fact
that + am candidate i'm the coming
primaries OF August 20, for the nomi-
nation for States Attorney.
In speaking through the columns
of the newspapers and otherwise 1
have tried to make my position clear
to the public. You said by your votes
in the last two elections in the Coun-
ty that you were dispreased with the
existing order of things in the Demo-
cratic party. Democrats throughout
the County are demanding that new
clean men shall b. the party nomi-
neeS and that these men shall have
earned the right Of support at the
hands Of the party. There seems to be
disposition to refuse TO return men
to office until they have earned that
right by working for the party.
L ask you to look into my record
covering the whole period of my
membership of the Bar of this Coun-
ty; ask you to speak to the men
who have been doing the party work
during the last ten years; I ask you
to look into the lives Of my opponents
in The same way, and If you find as
result of this comparison that the
service # have rendered to the DEM
ocratic party entities me to your sup
port then I trust that you will both
work, vote for, and actively support
me.
I want to say in conclusion that
whether I receive the nomination or
not, you will find me in this cam
paign as you have found in every 9TH
er since I have been in practice of
law in Carroll County actively work
Ing for and supporting the nominees
Of my party T submit my candidacy
To ny fellow Democrats and am will
In TO abide by your decisions in the
matter.

CAPITAL ABOUT

FROM TREASURY
City Refuses to Supply Place
of Storage.
MR.. BRIDE IN A DILEMMA
Must Remove Them from Po.
tomac Park Soon.

Unless the District officials relent and
permit William w. Bride to store the
old Treasury columns on vacant govern
ment property, they may be sold to a
civic association in Boston, to be used
to beautify Bunker Hill monument. A
statement to this effect was made yes
terday by Mr.. Bride, after a conference
at the District Building with Capt E, w.
Markham, acting Engineer Commission
er.
Mr.. Bride has until May 10 to remove
the columns from the government res
ervation in Potomac Park. where they
have been lying since they were re-
moved from the Treasury building. more
than two years ago, and, as 1t will take
more than two weeks to effect their re-
moval. Mr.. Bride IS trying to obtain a
place to store them until Congress de-
cides whether they will fit in with the
Identification plans for Washington.
Wants Them to Remain.
Before he would sell them to Boston,
Mr.. Bride said last night he would take
the matter to officials higher up, and,
If necessary. have some one intercede
with President Taft in order to obtain
a place to store the pillars.
Mr.. Bride saw Capt. Markham yester-
day afternoon with view to having the
columns placed on the reservation in Vir-
GINA avenue, between Seventeenth and
Eighteenth streets northwest Capt
Markham told him it would be impossible
TO grant such request, inasmuch as they
were private property and could not be
stored on government land.
while l realize the sentimental side
of the request said Capt. Markham last
night, lit would be impossible for me to
srant the wish of Mr.. Bride, as his in
terests in the columns are purely of a
business nature. However, in order that
my decision might not be misconstrued.
! advised Mr.. Bride to take the matter
to higher officials. 1t is my opinion that
my decision will be upheld
Il see little hope for the columns re-

There are at present 80 cases of meas
les under treatment in Washington. The
disease has been spreading steadily Tor
some weeks, and at present is unchecked.
total Of 81 cases yesterday broke the
record for one day, though Sc cases were
reported on April 6. ...... ...
As the disease is not considered dan
gerous enough to warrant quarantine
measures, the only precautions taken by
the health office consists Of warning
families Of PERSONS afflicted not to allow
the sufferer to leave the house.
DR.. Eugene L. LIE Merle. In charge Of
the records of contagious diseases at
the health office. said yesterday: Meas
les is not properly attended to by the
families. Although seldom fatal, measles
often leads to more serious and perma-
nent troubles of the eyes. and sometimes
the eaf. In my opinion. houses In which
measles appears should be placarded.
Out of a total of 79s cases since Janu-
airy /. but four deaths have resulted from
measles. Three Of these were children
under two years of age. but the fourth
death was that of Miss Eloise Wallace,
who was fifty-eight years old. At pres
ent there Is a case under treatment
where the sufferer Is forty-four years
old. There are now several cases where
the persons are over twenty-cne years

naming in Washington or the materiali-
cation Of the plans to make Washington
beautiful said Mr.. Bride yesterday.
'One reads a great deal about 1t in the
papers, but interest seems to be lacking
among city officials.
II have two offers for the sale of the
columns. One Is from a Philadelphia
man. who proposes to use them in Fair
mont Park there. The ether is from a
Boston concern, and it is probable they
will surround the Bunker Hill Monument
instead of being part of the beautifica-
ton plans Of Washington"
Mr.. Bride bought the columns from
Martin Mcnamara. the contractor, Mon
day, and Representative Sulzer, of New
York, introduced a bill IN the House the
same day asking for an appropriation
