several days last week in this city. He
is fighting the temperance bills before
the legislature.
Senator Specher's bill to ask the
State to appropriate $50, 900 to establish
The Glades Hospital at Oakland should
meet the hearty approval of all Garrett
countians. 1t is just what the county
needs for injured lumber and saw mill
men, miners and others who may be
injured.
The Garrett county delegation is the
champion bill offerers in the legislature.

duce one or more bills on some subject
or the other. Bills have already been
offered by them for countrywide local

a noise.
Senator Speicher was one of the com

the contested election case of Ash

boxes to count, and worked early and

congratulated over his local option

WHEN husband and wife each have
taxable incomes, how much exemption
can they claim? The Treasury depart
ment rules that when living together
they can claim $4,000 between them. If
living separate, each can claim $4,000 -

On lump of paving-ston mountain;
The steamboat he beat to mile,
Which mighty good sailing was counted;

So bring me Aagon of drink, ~

Says the saint, "This good day. do you hear,
drank nothing to speak of, myhearty,
So give me a pull at the poi"
The pewter he lifted in SPORT
believe me- tell you no fable);
A gallon he drank from the quart,
Then planted it full on the table
"A miracle" Every one said,
And they all took haul at the stingo;
They were capital hands at the tray
They drank till they fell; yet, by lingo!
The pot still frothed over the brn.
Next day quoth his host "Tis fast,
But I've naught in my larder but mutton;
And on Fridays who'd make such repast
Except an unChristian-like glutton?"
Says Pat "Cease your nonsense, I'll beg;
What you tell me is nothing but gammon;
Take my compliments down to the leg,
And bid it come hither a salmon!"

And trundled them into tn Atlantic.

GOVERNOR AGAINST
 BEAR DISCRIMINATION

In his report on the Alaska Game Law, Governor J. F. A Strong says. Under the existing law the brown bear is classified as a game animal and is protected. On the other hand, the black bear is denominated a fur bear ing animal and may be killed at any time. Is there any sound reason for this discrimination? Both species are found indiscriminately on the main- land and on the islands of the coast. The black bear is an unoffensive beast the brown bear is vicious and destruc- tive, and so far as killing is concerned, 1t should be placed in the same classi- hcation as the black; or if it be deemed absolutely essential to protect any of the brown bear family, that species found on Kodiak island might be protected during a portion of the year. However, I do not deem it ad- visable to afford any protection to these anmials, as in any case there is little danger of their becoming ex- tinct."
