In MemOriam

In sad but loving remembrance of
Mr.. Joseph F. Garner, who departed
this life, at his home in Cedarville, one
month ago today, March %, 1912.
Some may think have forgotten you
And my wounded heart is healed;
Little do they know the sorrow
That's within my heart concealed.
l often sit and think of you
When l am all alone,
For memory is the only friend
That grief can call its own.
He will never be forgotten,
Never shall his memory fade;
Sweetest thoughts shall ever linger
Round the grave where he is laid.
BY little friend, PEARL CAGE,

To the Democratic Voters of Prince
Georges County
May 1st, 1912.

May lst, 1912.
The Democratic State Central Com
mittee, together with many of its
;; friends met in Marlboro last Tuesday
and agreed that they would support
Mr.. c. A. M. Wells for Congress upon
condition that he could draw down alb
solutely the delegation for the State
Convention composed of Messrs. Chas.
B. Ager, Geo. w. Hardy, Harry W..
Gore, J. Chew Sheriff and Dr. Guy w.
Latimer. Mr.. Wells told the gentle
men there assembled that this was ask
ing rather too much of him, that he
had nothing to do with putting the above
gentlemen in the field and could not say
what they were willing to do.
Mr.. Wells, however, over the phone,
laid the matter before the delegates
mentioned, which they thought unrea
sonable. They did agree, though that
in the interest of harmony they would
withdraw three of their number and
give the State Central Committee and
its friends three and they take two.
This the committee fatty refused to
consider, as they wanted all of the del
egates or none. We wanted harmony
and were willing to give way to ma
iority friendly to the State Central
Committee, but as neither we nor our
friends had a thing to do with Mr..
Wells candidacy, as he never consulted
us in any way, we did not feel it our
duty to withdraw to satisfy the de-
mands of the State Central Committee.
We shall be very glad to give Mr..
Wells our support and feel that every
Democrat in this county should do the
same, but as we did not and do not now
consider him the candidate of any fac
ton, we fail to see where his indorse-
ment by one faction, the State Central
Committee, could promote harmony by
the method proposed. 1t denies to US
and to our friends any recognition in the
State Convention of the Councils of
the party. In view of this dictatorial
method of the State Central Committee
and their evident purpose to thwart
the very spirit of the primary law by
binding the people in deals for offices,
we appeal to you for support. By
swaps and trades they seek to accom-
plish their ends and tie down the Dem
ocracy of the County to the support of
the candidates it permits to 60 upon
the ticket and this we do not think the
people of this county will tolerate.

Congress 1 was careful not to do so I'M
til l had ascertained that Prince
Georges County, the County logically
entitled to the nomination, did not have
a candidate in the field. l am seeking
this nomination principally because this
is the first time the people have had
the right to make their choice free from
the dictation of any set of men. l rep
resent no faction; have made no prom
Uses or pledges; and seek this nomina
ton solely on my record as business
man who has not made business of

can redeem the Fifth Congressional

lican Party, if | receive this nomination

JACK" JOHNSON'S
LAWYER APPEALS
Asks U. S. Supreme Court to
Admit PugiIist Champion
to Bail.

WASHINGTON, Nov. H. - Jack
johnson. worlds champion heavy
weight pugilist. through his attorney.
Benjamin c. Bachrach, today filed a
motion in the Supreme Court of the
United States asking to be permitted
to give bail pending the hearing be-
fore the United States District Court
in Northern Illinois on an indictment
charging a violation of the white
slave traffic act.
In support of the motion 1t was said
the district judge demanded $50, 900
bail, which was declared to be ex-
cessive, and had refused to accept a
certificate Of deposit for $4,000 in lieu
Of bail. 1t is further set out that the
district judge stated he would not ac-
cept surety company upon the bond.
The attorney claimed in his papers
filed with the court that the white
slave traffic act was unconstitutional.
AS a final reason why Johnson
should be admitted to bail by the
Supreme Court, the attorney stated,
that for several weeks newspapers of
Chicago had been publishing false
and untrue reports concerning him
whereby he had been prejudiced in
the eyes of the public to such an ex-
tent that he was unable to induce
real estate owners to become surety
for him upon his bond unless they
were indemnifed and that the dis
trict Judge had stated he would not
accept real estate sureties if they
were indemnif1ed
When the motion was presented tc
the court Solicitor General Bullitt
rose to oppose it and asked until
Friday to file a brief in opposition
Johnson's attorneys wanted the mo-
ton passed upon by tomorrow.
Chief Justice White said Friday
was long time to take on a motion
to admit to bail and so gave the
government until Wednesday to fill,
its brief.

COOK SAVES MISSIONARY
BY CUTTING OFF HIS TOES
Clergyman Nearly Perishes in
Esuuiroo Land.

SYDNEY, N. s.. Nov. 1.-THE Rev.
Percy Braughton, missionary of the
Anglican Church among the Esqui-
maux of Baffin Land, reached here
today, still suffering from hardships
which nearly cost his life in the far
north.
He strayed from his guides while
on an expedition at Lake Harbor last
March. He jumped into the water
and made shore, but with two nights
spent in the open his wet feet be-
came so badly frozen that he finally
had to crawl on his hands and knees
to an Esquimaux village, where some
ill-advised native applied heat to the
frozen feet.
His cook probably saved his life
by cutting off all the toes of the right
foot. The mission ship arrived in
August and a doctor aboard per-
formed two more. operations.
By relay from different steamers
the Rev. Braughton reached here on
the Boethic, eighty-four days from
Lake Harbor. He is still scarcely
able to walk, but after a visit to his
native England he hopes to be able
to return to his charge.
