1t looks like new telephone COM
pany is forming as fast as possible.
This is an economic mistake and it
is not the proper step for Prescott to
take without just little more deliber-
alton We are with the citizens lea
que and think they have already won,
but there is no use deliberately des-
troylng property Notwithstanding that
we may believe as a community that
we have not been given the service
which we should have There is al
ways something for arbitration or
consideration when business relations
are not satisfactory. 1t would be a
reflection on the business community
to fail to give any man every opportu-
nifty to meet the requirements of the
public command. If Mr.. Frisby will
not do this after such opportunity,
then the course for the citizens league
is very clear If he will do it, it
would be immensely better for the
town and community to continue the
use of the present telephone system.
Our enthusiasm is all right. Our dis
position to hang together is better but
common unbiased judgement under all
conditions is better than either.

Who's Who at Annapolis.

The following article regarding our
Senator Matthias is taken from the Bal
timore SUN. We are too sorry that we
cannot reproduce the portrait OF the
Senator by the cartoonist Mckee Barclay
which appeared at the head of the rticle:
The producer and sole proprietor of
"The smile that won't come off, lives in
Frederick county, but Annapolis now has
three-month lease on its genial beams
and Western Maryland is clouded in
gloom. Even the corn crops and garden
sass depend upon the nourishing warmth
of the radatings from the beaming coun-
tenance of Sunny John" Matthias, Sen
ator from the great limestone county.
Sunny John" was the first president
and charter member of the Don't Worry
Club, and he holds the loving cup that
went with the winning of the Smilers'
Marathon. He drinks six quarts of the
milk of human kindness at every meal
and they say that when Frederick coun-
tian gets into trouble he backs away un-
til he can get good running start Tor
the nearest telephone, shouts hurry
call for OAR" and then sits down and
waits till Sunny John" shows up. And
"Sunny John" always shows up with
good advice and still better performance.
He is pallbearer at every funeral and
a rice thrower at every wedding. His
home on Church street in Thurmont is
haven of refuge for every man who has
the blues, and all who enter his door
with scowls or frowns come out with
grins or horse laughs.
When Sunny Johns" risible muscles
get busy the crows feet at the outside
edges of his specs tighten up. his eyes
twinkle and troubles trouble the troubled
no more.
This guileless, bileless, but never smile
less Thurmonter is always entered on the
ballot as Republican, but somehow
when his Democratic neighbors get with
in range of the Matthias smile they are
tempted to forget party allegiance and
so back to Annapolis he goes, bringing
with him the smile that won't come off.
