Party Leaders Jubilant.

Senator Zihlman and other party
leaders in Allegany county are elated
over the splendid showing of the Re-
publican party. A total Republican
vote of $500 in Allegany county gives
the grand old party majority over the
Democrats of about 1900, while the
party canicount on at least half of the
several hundred who declined to state
their party preference. So the heavy
party registration is taken bv party
leaders to indicate landslide for Zihl-
man and Darlington in November.
The showing of the Republicans in
enrolling such a magnificent number
indicates in my mind" said a party
leader last night, chat Allegany will
give an unprecedented majority vote to
Senator Zihlman, the congressional
candidate from this district, at the
election. | believe hundreds of former
Democrats have enrolled under the
Republican standard in this county be-
cause of the discomfort with the Wilson
administration. The Sixth district and
Allegany county primarily is an in
dustrial centre, and therefore, quick to
feel the depression resulting from the
Democratic tariff. Many Democrats
have endorsed Zihlman candidacy be-
cause of the failure of their party to
redeem their pledges to reduce the high
cost of living, and the general business
depression resulting from their injurious
policies

For more than thirty eight years
THE REPUBLICAN has stood for and on
the side of Temperance. Never in its
history has it published a whiskey ad-
vertisement, although offered liberal
price to do so. During the present
local option campaign it has used many
columns of the paper to advocate the
freedom of Garrett county from the
sale of liquors. 1t has been a pleasure
as we'll as privilege to do so. We
shall continue to urge the voters of the
county to cast their ballots for local
option until election day. We greatly
desire to see large majority in favor
of the bill. There ought.to be a very
large majority for local option. Voters
of Garrett county do your whole duty
and get out every vote possible for the
overthrow of whiskey and it's terrible
results. This is our opportunity; let US
avail ourselves of 1t by doing our level
best to secure large majority.

U. S. Secretary of the Treasury Nc
Adoo is an expert in NEW financeering,
as illustrated in loaniny to a New York
City National bank 100000 at per
cent interest, that it might loan the
money to the State of Tennessee. which
was about to default in the payment of
interest. The government will receive
$4,000 interest and the bank will clear
$4,000 on the loan. Does the Presi-
dent approve of this loan made by his
son-in-law? If Republican admins
tration had done suchsa thing, what
howl there would have been from the
Democrats. The bank clears SIG, 900 on
$500, 600 of the United States money.
No wonder we have to have tax for
revenues. The loan was made at the
request of Democratic Senator.

ment of the public funds, and at time
of peace, and with the industries of the
country largely paralYzed and labor out
of employment the party is about to i'm
pose additional taxes-imposts which
are considered unnecessary. Mr.. Mann
points out that the deficiency in our
customs revenues can be met by a
proper pruning of the improvident APP
preparations, and the exercise of strict
economy in government expenses.
The financial difficulty can be traced
directly to the deficiencies in the I'm
derwood bill, under which the Demo-
Gratis promised increased prosperity to
the country and decrease in the cost
of living. 1t has performed neither
junction. For the seven months of
this year ending with July 81, before
the European war began, our imports
from foreign countries were $l22, 0O9,-
OOO more than they were for the same
period last year, while orr exports
were S126, 900, 600 less. That is caused
by the Underwood tariff. The balance
of trade in our favor for these seven
months in this year was $50, 900. 900.
For the same seven months last year
the balance of trade in our favor was
$308, 900, 900. This shows failing off
in the balance of trade in our favor in
seven months before the war commence
ed of $248. 900, 600, which is equivalent
to demand on US of S248, 900, 900 in
gold. That is one of the main troubles
with the country now, and is the re-
suit of the new tariff law.
If we were manufacturing the goods
we use instead of importing them, we
would have prosperity; and if we had a
sufficiently high import duty on the
goods we bring IN from abroad, we
would have sufficient revenue without
question. What we need now is econ
omY and not new taxes. What we
have under the Democratic administra-
ton is extravaganza and additional
taxation.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1914-10-15

THEIDemocratic Congress is advoca-
ing the purchase of Thomas Jefferson's
old home for use of the President of the
United States for a summer home, for
the sum of halt a million dollars. 1t
seems as if the Democratic administra-
ton had no idea of economy or the
value of money. Half million dollars
for summer home for the President;
loan of $500, 600 to a New York bank
at 2 per cent. to help the Democratic
State of Tennessee out of trouble and
the bank to clear $16, by using
government money. No wonder Presi-
dent Wilson and his son-in-law are ad-
vocating the selection of Democratic
Senators and Congressman. No wonder
we need an extra tax of 500, 900. 900 to
to cover up deficiencies in the govern
ment revenue. Profigate waste is too
weak a term for the extravaganza of
Democracy.

REPUBLICANS of Garrett county rally
to the standard of the grand old Re-
publican party. We can elect orr
ticket this fall if we do our full duty.
Forget all past differences. Stand by

who have accomplished things and will
accomplish much for the country, state
and the district, if you elect them to
the offices they seek. Do your duty as
men, as loyal citizens, as true Republi-
cans. Vote for Darlington and Zihl-

THE National Park Bank, of New
York City, loaned the State of Tennes-
see 81, 400, 900 at the suggestion of
Senator Lea. backed by Secretary of
Treasury. Meade. The Secretary to
help the bank out loaned the bank $780,
900 government funds at 2 per cent. in
terest. The bank charged the State of
Tennessee 6 per cent. interest, per
cent. more than they pay the United
States. Of course Father Wilson ap-
proved this financial transaction of his
son-in-law.

MOUNTAIN LAKE PARK.

Mr.. John Close and daughter, Miss
Della. Of Berkeley Springs, w. Va,
visited relatives in this vicinity recently.
Mr.. Close for years supplied the Park
with excellent milk and cream, and ran
the first livery stable in the Park.
1t is surprising to note the way the
leaves are falling from the trees. The
careless dropping of match would in a
very short time cause a very heavy
loss. Be careful where you throw
matches.
The Parson Advocate has this to say

and energetically carried forth every
thing he laid his hands on. He will be
greatly missed next summer. Mr..
Freeland advertises a public sale in
another column. Read it.
Mrs. Bishop, Mrs. Allie Raymond,
Miss Kathaline Bishop are in the Park

here over Sunday.
Peter Murdoch, who forisome months

to Buckhannon, W. Va, to enter the
Methodist college at that place.
Mrs. Ella B. Sheets has returned to
her home in Pittsburgh, from her va
cation among the islands of Canada.
She expects to start for California on
the 9th, where she will spend the
winter.
DR.. Carr and wife will close their
cottage in day or two. We are sorry
to see them leave the Park.
The weather the past week has been
perfect and the foliage of the trees Is
beautiful beyond description.

MORE ECONOMY.

The lntelligencer, of Wheeling, W.
Va, has no objection to surrounding the
presidential Office with all the modern
conveniences and appointments. The
whole country, in fact, should take
pride in having its President living as
well as the best and enjoying all the
comforts of the most comfortable. The
Democratic party, however, has held to
strict Jeffersonian simplicity. But
severely Spartan as it may be in it's
professions, it has been Luculllan in it's
tastes and performances, after the mo-
lasses platforms it serves the people
have done their work.
For party pledged to economy, and
especially at time when the govern
ment is short of revenue, it seems rather
odd, to say the least, to read of the
arrival at the White House of a new
66-horse power touring car for the
President, costing $500 and authoriz-
ed by Congress. We are also told that
in short time two other new cars from
the same shop are to arrive for the
President. One of these is to be
limousine costing $1,000. A new car
OF the same make-a limousine-also
has arrived for Secretary to the Presi-
dent, Tumulty. We don't so much
object to the President being well
provided with the means of easy
locomotion and rapid transit, or keep
ing up with the prevailing styles, but
only desire to point out the hyprocisy
of the party and it's representatives IN
trying to make the people believe that
it is something it isn't. Congressman
Lewis supports this novel plan of
economy. The Democrats do love the
pork barrel. A Garrett county farmer
is satisfied with one Ford, but Mr..
President and family are to have three
expensive machines, costing as much as
80 or 40 Ford cars and his Secretary
must ride in car costing as much as
II cars used by Garrett county farmers.
1t is perfectly lovely the way Senator
Smith and Congressman Lewis and
their party practice economy!

PRESIDENT WILSON, Postmaster
General Burleson and other big Demo-
Gratis want Congressman Lewis re-
elected. Why? Because he is a Demo-
crat. OF course they claim he has done
so much to save the country from dire

election of Republicans who have done
valuable service for the country? Not
at all. Only Democrats do big things.

For few weeks politics will require
more or less use of our columns. This
paper, for more than third of a century,
has stood for Republicanism and as it
grows older 1t is more firmly convinced
that the principles of this great party
are right and stand for the best interests
of the whole country, hence, just now,
advocates the election of Messrs. Car
rington and Zihlman, tried and true
men, worthy of the confidence and
support of the electors of this county.
