the fact that business prosperity is
returning in a satisfactory manner-and
that but for the Presidential election.

We stood on the table. They did not one
OF them, nor did I, stand upon the
American flag. I would as lief insult
the memory Of my revered mother as
to insult the nag OF my country. But
anything and everything is good enough
to charge me with and try to bring me
into contSrapt with the American peo-
pie. But my life Of more than sixty
one years has been so STRAIGHTFORWARD
that my good name and the work that

people Of our country will live long after
my traducers are dead and their names

GiSt Blair Is Choice
In Race for Congress

ROCKVILLE. Nd, Jan. 2-Mont-
gomery county Republicans are prepar-
Ing to put up vigorous fight to make
Gist Blair. Of Silver Spring. Republican
to succeed Congressman David J..
Lewis. It Is understood no other MEM
Der Of the party in this county will
seek the nomination. which means
the solid vote of his party at the prim-
ary election next summer.
Mr.. Blair was candidate for the
nomination two years ago. but was de-
feated by Brainard H. Warner, jr., of
Kensingston. In that contest, Mr.. Blair
Garrett counties. and received more
votes than Mr.. Warner In Washington
county. which was carried BY another
candidate. but the tremendous vote
county gave him a plurality in the dis
trict. and made him the nominee. This
tune, Mr.. Warner will not be in the
field, and 1t is thought that much of
the vote given him two years ago in
Frederick county will go to Mr.. Blair.
Miss Florence Maude Ward, of WASH
ington Grove, and John William Oden,
Of Gaithersburg, were married in Rock
s. R. White. Of the Baptist Church.
Miss Della Wedeman and Burton G.
Millard, both Of Washington, also were
married in Rockville yesterday after
noon, by the Rev. White.
The belief Is strong in Rockville that
Philip D. Laird, for years one Of Rock
ville's leading citizens, will be named
by Governor Crothers as chairman Of
the public service commission, Of which
he has been a member since the forma-
ton Of that body. two years ago, to sue
coed James M. Amber, recently ap-
pointed to the supreme bench Of Balti-
more. Should he be selected for Mr..
Ambler's place, his term would run un-
til May. 1914, otherwise he will retire
next May.
