In the struggle for existence, man
is pitted against man, each striving
to succeed. and no matter what the
contest be, the best man with very
few exceptions is credited with the
victory. This is true Of business com
petitions as well as political aspira-
lions, and when simmered down it is
true Of the contest in the Republican
ranks for the nomination to the Office
of Register Of Deeds for which I am
a candidate.
Few are born without fault and
could I gain the end for which I am
striving by telling the faults Of an
other I would hesitate at using such
a method. It is the qualifications Of

a better position to know than almost

A Dangerous Decision .

A decision that should be vigorously
combated was handed down Sept. q by
the Frederick (Md.) County Court. I'm
der law passed by the last Legislature,
making it misdemeanor for traction
engines with exposed cleats to use the
State highways, the State Roads Com
mission sought an injunction against in
fraction by machines in that county. En-
CINE owners objected on the score of
added expense and also claimed that it
was not possible to operate tractors on
steep grades with sheathed cleats.
Officials of the State Commission then
offered to fit any traction engine with
guard blocks and drive it over every
State road in the Country, drawing a
threshing machine. This offer was re-
fused, and the prayer for injunction was
dismissed by the court. The astonishing
reason given for the decision was that
the highways should have been designed
to withstand the assaults of the tractors,
which were prior users of the roads. A
parallel existed, it was said, in the adop-
ton of bitumhous treatment because of
the demand of automobile traffic.
This false logic appears plausible enough
so that what is at present an unjust de-
cision may become dangerous preced-
ent. Motor traffic in Maryland, as in
other States, is subject to laws regard
ing weight and speed and the payment
of license fees. These are equitable re-
quirements. What the Frederick Coun-
ty Court has done is to set aside tract
or regulation law as logical as those re-
stricting general motor traffic. Bitumin-
Gus surfaces in Maryland seem to be
meeting legitimate strains efficiently.
To expect them to carry heavy engines
with unprotected wheels in an absurdity
which should be evident to every intelli-
gent Marylander. The road commission
should appeal from this decision and
should be upheld by all interested in the
upbuilding of the States highway sys-

Silver Wedding Anniversary
COMMUNICATED.

On Thursday evening, Nov. 10th, Mr..
and Mrs. d. w. Zentz, of near Thur
mont, celebrated the 25th anniversary of
their marriage. Over one hundred and
fifty relatives and friends from Emmits-
burg, Mt. Union, Waynesboro, Gettys-
burg, Frederick, Taneytown, Creagers-
town and Thurmont, assembled to con-
graduate the couple and help make the
occasion one long to be remembered.
Mr.. and Mrs. Zentz needed the testi-
mony of the presence of their oldest child.
Mr.. Estee Zentz. and the good memory
of their oldest friends to establish the
fact that not only had they been married
for rs years, but that in truth they were
that old themselves.
Mrs. Zentz was gowned in plum, and
surrounded by her three children. Mr..
Estee and two daughters, Dorothy and
Beatrice, and with her husband she was
the center of charming picture. The
background of this scene was beautified
with floral decorations, palms, laurel,
white carnations and smilax. The effect
of the tasteful decorations was further
heightened by the lavish use of electric
lights, both within and around the house.
The guests were received by Mr.. Ross
Delaplane and Mrs. Frank Dertzbaugh,
the latter of Frederick. They were pre-
scented to Mr. and Mrs. Zentz and Miss
Dorothy Zentz by Mr.. Estee Zantz. A
dinner of sandwiches, oysters, chicken
salad, phtato chips, pickles, celery, fruit,
cake, coffee and ice cream was served in
the dining room by Mr.. Cleveland Hoke,
of Emmitsburg. The tables were pre-
sided over by Mrs. Dan'l Flory, Mrs. c.
H. Osler, Miss Grace Warner, Mrs. Oh
Ter, Mrs. C. Delaplane and Mrs. Cleve-
land Hoke. The table was splendidly
decorated with flowers and ribbons, the
color scheme being silver and green.

Many beautiful and valuable gifts were
presented to Mr.. and Mrs. Zentz, and a
handsome sum of money was another ex
preston of the high regard of some Of
their friends.
Altogether this was one of the most
pleasing occasions of recent times The
hospitality of the host and hostess, the
cooperation of the ladies and the occas-
ion itself altogether made it such.

Cost Road $500.

Wilkins Banister has won his suit
against the W. M. Railroad Company
and will be awarded $500 damages.
Last summer year ago Banster to-
gether with w. w. Winebrenner, a well
known merchant of Hghfield, were ar
rested by the park policeman of the
Western Maryland Railroad Company, at
Pen-Mar park and placed in the small
coop at the latter place, which is used as
lookup.
On the day of the arrest of the two
gentlemen Winebrenner and his relatives
were having family reunion, and Ban
lister, who was friend of the former s
youngest daughter, Miss Carrie Wine
brenner, (who has since become his wife,
shared in the festivities.
The girls dog appeared and the police
man ordered Winebrenner to take the
dog from the park. Winebrenner said
it didn't belong to him. After some
words the policeman placed Winebrenner
in the lookup and later put Banister there
because he took his friends part in the
argument.
Winebrenner then filed suit for false
arrest and his case compromised, the
company paying him $500 last year.
Banister brought suit this year and he
has been notified that he will receive $40(
in settlement of the case. -Hagerstowr
