A REGISTER correspondent from Par
kersburg says that Bob Buskirk's bull
dog will be registered again as voter if
the plans of the Republicans in Mcdowell
county are carried out as intended. Word
has been, received that the Republican
registrars in Mcdowell are insisting upon
transferring to the new registration list
the names OF all persons who were on
the registration list before the last election,
whether they are qualified voters at the
present time or not. Efforts ofthe DEM
ocratic registrars to prevent this from be-
ing done have been made in vain. This
means that if this plan is carried out every
one OF the illegal votes which were polled
in the famous election of two years ago,
which was so utterly denounced by Re-
publicans and Democrats alike in the
House of Representatives, will be repeat
ed this year unless some means are TAX
en- TO prevent the padding OF the regis
tration list in this way.
Mcdowell is the home county of DR..
Hatfield, Republican candidate for Gov
ernor, and the presumption is that he is
at the head of this most dishonest move
ment, or at the very least acquiesces IN
it. DR.. Hatfield already has had placed
upon him by congressional committee
brand that few men would care to bear,
and he must indeed be callous and indif-
ferent to honor and decency if he shall be
willing TO be the beneficiary offrauds de-
liberately planned and carried out. The
citizenship OF the black belt from which
DIR. Hatfield halls is questionable at best
how utterly discreditable such support

AT the recent term of the circuit court
of Morgan county no grand jury was
called. there being no prisoner in jail and
none out on bond. This speaks volumes
as to the efficacy of a dry county, for
such a thing was never heard OF when
saloons flourished in Morgan county.

WE are very sorry to note that the in
iquitous saloons are to again curse our
neighboring city Of MartinSburg. That
place has been free from these pests for
nearly two years, but the combination OF
saloon-keepers, politicians and the Han
MS Distillery has proven too strong, tenn
porarily, for the temperance people, and
so the cause of decency and good order
gets setback. We will be surprised if
the advocates OF law and order and mo-
rality and temperance shall give up the
struggie-on the contrary, we believe and
hope that they will 60 into the fight with
more zeal and earnestnesS than ever be-
fore.
The most important thing, ifpermanent
victory is to be gained, is TO down the
rotten and intolerant political ring that has
SIS long dominated and corrupted Berke-
ley county.

THE election in Maine on Monday re-
suited in victory for the Republicans,
both wings of the party, progressives
and regulars, having united to defeat
Governor PlaiSted for reelection. VIM.
T. Haines, Republican, for Governor, has
a plurality OF about 5000. While we had
hoped to see the Democrats win in Maine,
no disappointment need be caused by
reason of their defeat, for Maine is a Re-
publican State and seldom goes any other
way. Two years ago the Republicans
reyolted and the State went Democratic,
and il has now but returned to its usual
political aifiation. We look for Governor
Wilson to carry the State in November.

THE MORGAN's GROVE FAIR.

The Morgan's Grove fair closed last
Friday, after very successful and profita-
BILE exhibition. The receipts were ahead
of those of last year, and as the expenses
were considerably less, Treasurer +.

hand. Dealers in machinery and others
who were interested financially report
good sales and very satisfactory business.
The baby show, the annual attraction
of fair week, was more than usually en-
Pertaining this year. twas held at the
stand in the certer of the grounds and
was attended by large crowd of inter

manager and Miss Alice Billmyer assist
ant manager. The judges were Mrs.

Pa, and Rev. Mr.. Busey, of Harrisburg,
Pa. There were so many pretty babies
it was really difficult matter to select
the winners, but the judges finally made
the awards as follows: Prettiest boy

GIaring Misstatement or Facts.

Editor of the Sentinel Please allow me
a few lines of the next issue of your paper
TO correct an article sent in from German
town. Md, in regard to the game of ball
played between the team representing that
place and Rockville on Saturday. the 7th
instant, and published in the pink sheet"
of the Washington Post the day following.
The article stated that, with the score
standing 2 TO 2 In the seventh inning,
Rockville refused to continue to play on
account of darkness and left the field.
thereby FORGETTING the game to the home
team. This is glaring misstatement of
the facts. AS matter of fact the umpire
formally called the game. with the score
tied, and not until then did the Rockville
team leave the field. Furthermore, this
was known to the manager Of the German
town team and he expressed his satisfac-
ton at its being called, as, in his opinion,
as well as in the opinion Of most of the
spectators, ii was SO dark that ball playing
was dangerous The days are short at this
time Of the year, and coupled with this was
the fact that severe storm was approach
ing which greatly added to the darkness
Yet, it was $50 before the game was
called. might add that the last inning
and half were played In darkness. and
it was on this account. and no other. that
Germantown scored its two runs that tied
the score. The players Of the Rockville
team and its followers are incensed at the
article in question and feel that the same
should be corrected.
Just word also in regard TO German
towns lack Of proper spirit. shown by pad

they having Chief Green. "Shag" Rawl-
ings, REGGIE" Rawlings, "Skeets" Hays,
and Gheen from the Bankers team and
Phil Buscher. Rockville relied upon its
regular lineup making no changes.
By reason Of this game we have clear
title TO the Montgomery county champion
ship, as we have won from every team in
the county, defeating most Of them twice.
Two games were arranged with German
town. the first Of which Rockville won by
the score Of 4 to 2. and as this one was
tied there is no reason for a third game.
We are through with them. II the players
named above want 10 play us. we would
be glad to play. but they must play under
the name Of the Bankers and not under
that Of Germantown. Furthermore II any
combination Of players who are Montgom-

we will be glad TO meet them. as we want
the title without cloud upon it.

Central Committee for MONTGOMERY County
and the Wilson Auxiliary Committee, APP
pointed for said county. held at Rockville,
Tuesday, September II, 1912. the under
signed, campaign treasurer, authorized by
law to receive and disburse campaign
funds, was directed to solicit individual
contributions for the legitimate expenses
of the coming campaign.
|, therefore, make an earnest appeal to
all persons Of Montgomery County to con-
tribute to me. as treasurer aforesaid, some
amount and thus in personal way share in
the great victory that awaits us in Novem-
Der, if we shall have done our part The
minds of the people are still fresh with the
contribution of the amazing sum of $l25.-
900 by the Standard Oil Company to elect
Theodore Roosevelt as President in 1904.
Our opponents are parties of special in
terests and are being financed, directly or
indirectly, by enormous contributions from
the favored classes. The Democratic peo-
pie are party of the people and must f.
nance its campaigns by the individual con-
tributions of the people. Let every man
interested in the election of Woodrow Will
son to the Presidency Of this nation ex-
press his interest in this material way A
dollar will be as gratefully received as any
larger contribution. A receipt will be
mailed to every donor and the name Of
each and every contributor published at the
end of the campaign. 1t is hoped the
treasurers Of our local Wilson. Marshall,
Lewis and Worthington Clubs will con-
tribute as literally as possible. in order that
we may finance our county campaign with
out assistance from the State and National
Democratic Committees.

Demurrer Overruled In The Brad
ley Will Case.

On Wednesday of last week the contest
over the estate of the late Henry Bradley
was before the Orphans Court. Mr.. Brad
ley died in January, 1911, with no children
surviving him, but left widow, who is
Mrs. Jane B. Bradley, of this town. Prior
to Mr.. Bradley's marriage he made will
in her favor conditioned upon marriage,
and six years afterward added codicil
thereto reafiirming the provisions of said
will. After the death of Mr.. Bradley the
same were admitted to probate, and soon
thereafter some of the collateral next of
kin of Henry Bradley filed caveat to the
same attacking its validity. The solicitors
for the widow filed plea to the caveat,
in which it is alleged that the will was only
in form and verbiage will, but was in
fact part of contract entered into be-
fore marriage. and therefore, as was con-
tended. the will being part of contract
was not such paper as was subject to
caveat. The caveatOrs filed demurrer to
said plea, and on the 18th instant the Or
phans' Court passed an order everything
the demurrer and thus sustaining the con-
tention of the widow. The caveators have
now the right to appeal from that decision
to the Court of Appeals or to have an issue
framed for trial in the Circuit Court as to
whether said will was made in pursuance
of a contract or not

Protesting Against Car Fare.

Citizens of Silver Spring, this county,
have complained to the Interstate Com
merce Commission against the Washington
Railway and Electric Company with refer
ence to rates of fare on the electric line
which connects the town with Washington.
The complaint is signed by President
Harlow Bacon. of the Silver Spring Improve
ment Association. IL alleges that the cleo
trio line is subject to the interstate COM
merce acts. and that passengers between
Silver Spring and Washington pay cash
fare of cents to the District line, or So. so
for twenty-six round trips. 1t is 1900 feet
from the District line to Silver Spring. and
the residents there complain that they
have to pay just as much fare to the Dis
trict line as Forest Glen patrons pay, who
are four miles from the District line
1t is further charged that the rate be-
tween points within the District of Column
bia and Silver Spring is excessive.
The complaint asks that the commission
establish a single cash fare of cents be-
tween Washington points and Silver Spring
or. in lieu of that, such rates as the COM
mission deems equitable.
