Complaint to Prosecutor,
Because Voters Refuse In
formation to Poll Takers.
SLAM DOORS SHU'

is Not Compelled to Tell
How He Intends to Vote
at Option Election.

had the experience of being driven
from one home by man welding a
razor Later, however, Dwiggins
learned the man was insane.
Prosecutor Keller said today that
no voter was required to inform a poll
taker whether he was going to vote
wet or dry, but there was certain in,
formation all voters were required to
furnish poll takers who displayed
proper credentials
The prosecutor states that some OF
the poll takers have either not been

neglected to display them to people
they have called upon.
In regard to what information a
voter is required to furnish prop,
erly accredited poll taker, Prosecutor
Keller quoted the following section OF

SECOND CAMPAIGN
WILL Be PLANNED
Guest House Directors Meet
Tonight to Discuss Matter
of Raising Funds.

Plans for q second campaign for
funds, probably will be completed to-
night at a meeting of the executive
board of the Guest House association.
The meeting will be held at the home
of Miss Margaret Starr, president of
the association.
The second campaign will be or
ganiZed along the lines of the first,
but probably will be more extensive.
A committee of business men to act as
Il board of advisors has been asked of
the Commercial club. The officers
of the club promised to appoint the
board as soon as necessity requires.
Before the second campaign for
funds starts, all old lists of names
will be gone over and those who did
not respond or were not seen in the
first campaign will be solicited.
The directors of the association be-
lieve the Guest House idea was not
firmly rooted in the minds of those
who are philanthropic and that the
local option election and other i'm
portant matters before the public
hindered the other campaign.

Construction of Engines,
According to a Statement
Issued by w. Campbell.
MORE MEN ARE ADDED
Normal Working Conditions
are Expected Here by the
Manager of Works Within
the Next Few Months.

Statements were issued today to the
effect that the Gaar-Scott branch of
the M. Rumely company would put on
an increased force within the next
few days, and from present indica,
tions normal conditions will be re-
stored in the big plant within a few
months.
William Campbell. works manager
today said that boilers are on the
road to Richmond from Battle Creek
Mich, where the company has an.
other branch, and that as soon as
these boilers arrive, the local plant
will start building engines Mr.
Campbell expects the shipment here
before next week
From now on local officers expect
eighteen boilers each week and this
alone will mean that a big number OF
men will be employed. On the first
of next month the Gaar-Scott plant
will again start to build separators
and Mr.. Campbell says that one hun
dred more men may be put on at that
time.
Boilers Delay Work.
I'VE would have been working on
engines before this but it was impos
sible to get the boilers here said
dered for several weeks but the Battle
Creek plant was unable to get them
Yesterday we received word that the
boilers had been shipped"
When asked if the announcement
that the NJ Rumely concerns bank
ers and noteholders' committee that a
plan for the extension of its notes
to March 1, 1918, had anything to do
with the renewed activity of the plant
Mr.. Campbell replied in the negative
He said that the company had in
tended to proceed with it's plans be-
fore the extension of the notes was
arranged.
Mr.. Campbell says there are 1926
persons employed by the local branch
now. If present plans materialize the
force will be materially increased
each month and it is believed that the
normal force of from 500 to 500 men
will be on the company's pay roll
here when all buildings are opened.

Foresees Expense.
In considering this matter il should
be borne in mind that this company
has expended. or will have expended
when contracts now let are completed,
the sum of about $780, 100000 in laying
new main and in other betterment5
which the city has desired many years,
and that this expenditure does not
mean any additional consumers but
only msureS constant and efficient
service for present consumers
no additional revenue can be realized
directly from this expenditure, but
that if il is an added protection and
will afford better and surer service, il
should be apportioned equitably
among all users.
The city has endeavored to consider
all matters fairly, and has left moth
ing undone in presenting this case to
the commission that is in the interest
of the public good.
We do not believe that the result
will furnish any justification for in
creasing taxes, unless the commission
should adopt course in apportion-
ing revenues between fire protection
and domestic consumption, which is
wholly unwarranted under the facts

tote FAIR"

The above expression doubtless has
often been heard, as it refers to two
persons engaged in carrying load,
when one of the two arranges the load
so that it shoves the greater weight
on the other. 1t is then that the
"shirker" is called upon to Tote
FAIR
We will apply this expression to
the Union Manufacturing Company
of Frederick who engaged to help
carry the electric light load" with
the town of Thurmont. They have
entered into a written contract t"
take current to an amount equal to
the guarantee that the town is called
upon to assume and bear with the
Railway Company. This contract
has not yet produced anything what
eyer to the town, although nearly
four months have elapsed. The gen
tlemen who represent the Union
Manufacturing Company were most
insistent upon the town procuring
day current from the Railway so that
they could utilize this carrent at
their Thurmont plant; we are told
that first one excuse and then another
is offered as to their reason that they
have not placed their motor in posi-
ton, etc. Now the town has done
its part and it is up to the Union
Manufacturing Company to Tote
Fair" This Company has long since
taken current from Emmitsburg and
it was one of their arguments adj
vanced that they desired to hook up
both the Thurmont| and Emmitsburg
plants. Thurmont is still waiting
and it certainly expects TIN" Union
Company to live up to its bargain.

A NEW AN .ESTH ETC.

Experiments are being carried out
with new annsthctic which is a
combination of urea with alcohol, and
which is known as urcthanc. 1t is
administered by means of hypodcr-
mic syring', and according to the re-
suits which are NOW being obtained,
it is extremely effective. Upon adj
ninistration the subj ct sinks into Il
state of drowsiness, which develops
into unconscisusncss. The complete
insensibility to pain which results en-
ables any operation to be carried out
with perfect security, because con-
seriousness is lost for several hours.
One great advantage accrulng from
the use of this drug is that under
proper application heart failure, such
as some times attends the use of chic
reform, is unknown, but an overdose
is fatal, because it arrests respiration.
The viglant surgeon, however, should
be able to detect signs of breathing
difficulties and act accordingly;
whereas in the case of drugs affecting
the heart directly it is difficult to de-
tect that the patient is in cXtremis.
Urethane has the advantage that sick
ness does not occur from its use; so
that the risk of stitches and ligaturcs
being broken from stretching does
not occur. lnversely, there is one
great drawback-thc prolonged period
of insensibility. So far it has not
been found possible to reduce the un-
conscious lapse to less than five hours,
which is serious defect; but, on the
other hand, some practitioners who
have used the new drug say that this
defect is more than counterbalanced
by the many advantages which it
possesses.

Missing Agent A Suicide
Drank Acid When Young Wife
Refused to Take Him Back.

at has Just been learned here that
William.Martin, the solicitor represent
ing the Aluminium Ware Company. who
some weeks ago, took number of orders
for cooking utensils at Buckeystown and
other points in the county. collecting 81
as part payment on each order, but who
never delivered the articles, committed
suicide in Kentucky recently.
"As was told in The News at the time,
there was an estrangement between Mar
tin and his wife while they were staying
in FIR. derrick, due to the husbands drink
ing. Unable to endure his conduct, Mrs.
Martin finally borrowed money, took the
baby and left Frederick, giving instruc-
tons at the boarding house not to dis
close her whereabouts as she was through
with him. 1t is understood that their
marriage was a runaway match.
Martin, when he learned that his wife
had left, was much worried and soon
picked up stakes.
| ale is said to have located her in Ken
lucky, where her people live. Accord
ing to the report received here, he plead
ed with his wife to take him back, and
finally she did grant him permission to
see the baby. However, when he was
at the house she did not come down stairs
to see him.
! Again he tried to persuade her to live
with him, to give him another chance,
but she would not yield. Ir order to
make final appeal, Martin went to
drug store and bought some carbo!ic acid
and without telling anyone what he want
ed with the poison. asked to use the tel
ephone He called his wife and put the
matter before her again. When she
turned deaf ear to his appeal, he put
the vial to his lips and drank the acid.
I "A clerk seeing what the man had
done, rushed to summon physician.
Martin asked that he be allowed to die.
He died about ten minutes later, efforts
to resuscitate him being of no avail.
"The company, which Martin repre-
scented, is reliable and may make good

brought to the companys attention. -
News.
We understand some people in and near
Thurmont are also looking for Aluminium
ware, they having paid over their dol
lar to an agent who never returned or
delivered the goods. The above, per-
haps, will tell the reason why. Of course
Martin may not be the agent who opera
ted in this community.
