A Woman's Suffrage meeting, at
which about fifteen ladies' were present,
was held at the home of the editor on
last Thursday night, when Miss Trax,
representing the State organization,
made an address, setting forth the
objects of the organization, which was
followed by lively discussion in which
nearly every lady present joined. A
permanent organization may be formed
as result of this informal meeting.
We publish in this paper today the
reports of the condition of several
Garrett county banks, showing the
financial status of those institutions at
the close of business on January 18th,
at which time report was called for
by the Treasury Department at Wash
ington. The reports we print today
show that Garrett county's banks are
in healthy state and that the resi-
dents of the county, reflected by the
statements of the banks. are prosperous
and are constantly adding to their bank
accounts.
Last Friday County Treasurer J. B.
Emory sold at tax sale five pieces of
realty located in Garrett county upon
which the taxes were due and in arrear.
Two pieces were sold to individuals,

awarded the other three tracts. Ex-
County Treasurer r. l.. Fries will offer
several tracts and parcels of land at tax
sale tomorrow, the sale to occur at the
front door of the court house at ten
O'Clock in the morning. Some good
bargains may be secured in the purchase
of these lands by parties interested
sufficiently to attend the sale.
Former State Senator w. McCulloh
Brown, of Garrett county, was elected
on last Thursday president of the Mary
land Conservation Association, which
organization was permantly formed at
a meeting held by those interested in
the conservation of forests, water WAYS
and other natural resources. Senator
Browns election as the executive officer
of this Organization, which had been
recognized by the National Government
as one of the best features of educating
the public to the Importance of conserv-
ing our natural resources, recognizes
his ability as a forester and one who
will devote much of his time to the
labors of the office
Mr.. L. A. Rudisill, whose appoint
ment as messenger in the Maryland
Senate was announced in these columns
last week, and which appointment was
secured by the efforts of Senator
Spelcher, left Oakland Monday night
for the commonwealth S seat of COVER
ment, Annapolis, where MIR. Rudisill
will be engaged during the balance of
the Legislative session. Mr.. Rudisill's
appointment is just recognition of the
service he rendered during the camp
align, and which came to him unsought.
Nevertheless he has expressee his appre-
citation of the favor conferred and will
no doubt render excellent service to the
of the Senate.
