EIGHT HOUSES
Are Being Erected in Pretty
Residence Addition in
West End.

Quite a building boom is on in the
Broaddus addition, eight new houses
being in course of construction
there. This addition, which is one
OF the most desirable residence sec
tions of the city, has experienced a
remarkable growth since it was
opened three years ago. 1t is now
almost entirely built up with hand
some, substantial houses, and with
Its cement sidewalks and wide, shad-

with the best residence sections of

Does Not DESIRE Reelection.

Within the past week Judge John C..
Motter has been urged by number of
his friends throughout this county to al
low his name to be submitted to the
voters in the coming primaries as cand-
date for Judge to succeed himself. 1t is
known that the demand has been insist
ent, and to all Judge Motter has refused
to allow the use of his name.
Judge Motter is now 81 years of age.
The age of 70 is the age of retirement
for judges in Maryland, although the
term may be extended by the Legisla-
ture. 1t is thought Judge Motter could
secure an extension of time if he so de-
sired, as he is still as we'll qualified to
preside over court as ever.
1t has been known to the close friends
of Judge Motter for some time that he
does not again desire the judicial nomi-
nation. His friends state he would great
ly desire to be the senator to the United
State Senate from Maryland and they
think, should the Republicans get con-
troll of the next Legislature, that he will
be candidate to succeed Senator John
Walter Smith. Two years ago. when
Senator Rayner was returned to the Sem
ate, Judge Motter received all of the
votes of the Republicans. 1t is claimed
he would have the solid support of all the
Western Maryland counties, and would
secure good vote from all over the
State, as he is most favorably known.
This position, it is claimed, would be
much more to the liking of Judge Motter
than any judgeship. His friends will
make great effort to land this position
for him, should the next Legislature be
Republican.
