 CHARTS POINT THE WAY.
 Thus far the navigator has compara- lively ID ain sailing but from Win yah Bay south the route IS very various narrow channels, with many opportunities for the unwary mariner to go astray.
 It is here that the Department of the Coast and Geodetic Survey, has provided a means of safety in a spe- cial edition of the charts cove 6ng the route between this point and Key Bis cayne Bay, Fla, on which the inland waterway is shown on the chart by a broken red line.
 Leaving Winyah Bay the routes folr lows various narrow waterways, friv- natural waterways, all crooked and too numerous to mention by name, but anyone who follows the broken red line on the charts is certain to reach his destination.
 The route touches the coast at Sa- rioJIs points and crosses Bull Bay. Charleston Harbor, St. Helena Sound, Port Royal, Tybee Roads, Wassaw Sound. Osabaw Sound, ,Altamaha Sound, St. Simon Sound, St. Andrew Sound, Cumberland Sound, and St Johns River; thence through Pablo Creek, North, Matanzas, Halifax, and Hillsborough Rivers, MorQuito Lagoon, In6Ean River. South Jupiter Narrows. Hobe and Jupiter Sounds, Lake Worth, Key Biscayne Bay, and canals con meeting them.
 In the Florida waters the Depart ment of Commerce and Labor, through the Bureau of Lighthouses, has re- gently established 100 day beacons to indicate the channel at as many crit teal points between St. Johns River and Jupiter River.
 The Coast and Geodetic Survey has issued recently a leaf1et under the title Inland Waterway. Atlantic Coast which gives a, brief descri ption of the route, the numbers of the charts which cover it, and the titles of publications issued to aid mariners by that bureau and the Bureau of Lighthouses.

Mr. Charles H. Bill, of Grantsville,
Md, who had charge of the shoe depart
ment of Miller & Collins for the last
five weeks, during the absence of Mr..
Collins, returned to his home Wednes-
day, after Mr.. Collins return. Mr.. Bill
renewed many old acquaintance during
his stay in Meyersdale and made many
new friends, also, who regret his de-
parture. Mr.. Bill was in hurry to get
home to harvest his pear, grape and
potatoe crops, and to slaughter some of
the gray squirrels and other game in the
woods around Grantsville before the
hunting season is ended. -Meyersdale

Thirty-F Five Years Ago.

The following notes are taken from
THE REPUBLICAN of October 20 ,1877,
-thirty-five years ago, and will be read
with interest in 1912:
Mr.. John A Grant, late with the firm
of Wayman & Co., announced the open
ing Of his new store located in the Mer-
rill building.

tice that the voting place in District No.
Z had been changed from the Codding-
ton hotel to the court house.
Heavy rains prevailed during Sunday
which were followed Monday with
light fall of snow.

Lewis Sending Political ratter 70
Each Voter at The Cost OfTke
Taxpayer.
To the Editor Of The Republican.

To the Editor of The Republican.
Nearly all the honest men of this
nation are engaged in uplift work. They
are fighting to eliminate graft in nation,
state, city, town and village But at
least one species of petty graft yet
survives in Government circles. Irefer
particularly to the shocking abuse of the
D. H. Franklin privilege on the part of
some Congressman.
This mornings mail brought me a
massive pamphlet. The first thing to
catch my eye was the D. H. Frank of a
congressman on the envelop showing
that the pamphlet had been carried at
the expense of the taxpayer. The
pamphlet was speech delivered by the
Hon. David j. Lewis before Congress.
This pamphlet has been printed by the
thousand lots in the government printing
works, at Washington, at the expense
Of the tax payer also.
1t is safe to presume that Mr.. Lewis
is sending one to each voter in the Sixth
District. This can only mean tons upon
tons of electioneering matter at the ex-
pense of the over burdened tax payers
of the Nation.
Mr.. Lewis action is hard on the tax
payer and on his opponent MIR. Waga-
man who must paw for his electioneering
matter whereas MIR. Lewis invoking the
aid Of an antequated but surviving spe-
cies of graft, elects to reach the voters
of the Sixth district via the D. H. mail
route
Of course it is hardly necessary to say
that but few brief years shall pass at
most ere the use of the D. H. Govern
ment frank, for purposes other than
strictly in the service of the government,
will be contrary to law. In the mean
time | grieve to learn that Mr.. Lewis
has lacked the moral courage to antici-
pate the coming of the above day. and
has found way to reach the voters
without the expenditure of one cent.
Really it's hard on Wagaman.
FAIR PLAY.

Auto Accident Sunday.

Last Sunday about noon a Young man
named Bailey, employed as chauffer by

with an accident by which he lost a por-
ton of the thumb of his right hand

differential of the machine while trying
to make repairs. The machine broke
down at Accident while members of
Mr.. Grimes family were on their way

the general public to come to the dining
rooms, Nov. Il, and help along this
worthy cause.
