What Is The Answer.

Sears and Roebuck. the big "cata-
logue house." just DIVIDED 10000, 0C0
among their stockholders. This firm
sells for cash. Its customers buy on
faith, from description, and pay the
freight. 1t would be interesting,
wouldn't it, to know how many Garrett
countians contributed to that pot-sent
their cash out West, to be divided there?
Local merchants pay local taxes and
licenses to do business. Local people
are given the opportunity to examine
what they buy at home and are extend
ed credit when they purchase. 1t
would also be quite interesting, wouldn' t
it, to know what proportion of the peo-
pie of Garrett who sent their cash to
Sears and Roebuck are on the debit
side of the ledgers of local storekeepers?

A School Teacher INDICATED.

The good citizens of Springdale DIS
trict gathered in Squire Rudisill's office
last Saturday, filling it to its utmost
capacity and many persons standing
outside. The occasion which had
brought this crowd of men, women and
children together was a suit against
the teacher of the public school for
illtreating one of the scholars. At
torney William R. Offutt defended the
teacher, a wide awake, good natured
young lady. The State was represent
ed by States Attorney Renninger.
Twenty-four witnesses were present,
County Superintendent Rathbun, Profs.
Bender, Loraditch and Miss Long of
the Oakland High School were also on
hand. At the suggestion of Mr..
Renninger, Squire Rudisill dismissed
the case as there was no evidence to
sustain the charge. This action met
with the most hearty approval of those
present, for the teacher is loved by her
pupils and respected by nineteen
twentieths of the patrons of the school.
1t is believed that the result of this
charge will be a decided improvement
in the public school condition in that
vicinity and the yearly complaint
against the teacher will end. The
community is to be congratulated Cor
standing by the teacher of their school

STATE BOUND TO PAY
4 MILLION EACH YEAR
Running Appropriations Go On For.
ever Unless the Legislature Acts.

That the continuing appropriations
which have been made from time to
time by the Legislature and which the
State would be required to pay whether
the Legislature again met or not
amount to more than a million dollars a
year was stated today by Comptroller
Emerson c. Harrington. The exact
amount as he has found it on his books,
is Sl,012,857.
Some of the acts providing for these
payments date back more than a CEN
fury and they have been added to at
almost every session of the Legislature
since. So that, unless legislators act
with full knowledge of what has al
ready been appropriated, they are likely
to provide for the payment of more
money than the State has in sight, Just
as they did at the last session, when the
amount appropriated took the biggest
jump in the States history.
Mr.. Harrington has compiled the
figures making comparison between the
Legislatures of 1914 and OF 1912 in
order to see where the increased ap-
preparations come in. This shows that
the total preparations made by the
Legislature of 1914 for the fiscal years
1915 and 1916 exceed by 81, 557, 622
those of the Legislature of two years
before-for the fiscal years 1918 and
1914.
This increase over the appropria-
tons of the preceding Legislature was
divided among the following items, the
amount given being not the total
amount, but the excess over what was
provided by the preceding Legislature:
Special appropriations. ...... $597, 75e
Omnibus bill, charitable insti-
tutions Observation-Disclosures. 3O1, 1851
General appropriation bill,
State institutions. ......... 523, 900

penses of State government 134, 60C

Learning to Know One Ano, her

In the schoolhouse in Bellevile. Wis,
recently upon motion of the Catholic
priest, the Methodist minister was
elected president of the community S

basketball teams were formed. in
GLIDING the priest, the minister. the
blacksmith. the editor, a farmer, the
keeper of the village restaurant, a
den fist. a clothler, teamster, a drug
gist, a garage owner, banker, hard

They differ in religion, IN politics. in
incomes, in most other things. about as
widely as men ever differ. but in the
common school building, in the free
democracy of the social center. they
agreed to lay aside their differences for
the purpose of discovering how much
good fellowship there was in meeting
together now and then as equals, as
brothers.

OAKLAND COLLEGIANS
NOSE OUT MT. SAVAGE
In Fast And Exciting Game BY a
Score of "a to 22.

The Oakland Collegian basket ball
team defeated the fast Mt. Savage
quint here Saturday night by score of
"a to p. The game was fast, though
somewhat rough. This was due. how
ever, to the closeness of the score, each
team playing an exceptional game on
the defense. The first half ended II to 6
in favor of the Mt. Savage five. The
second period was close, the Collegians
tying their opponents, by sensational
playing, in the first five minutes. For
the rest of the period the score was
close, ending in a tie, each team hav-
ing made % points. The captains then
agreed to play until one team was two
points ahead of the other. The two
teams then fought furiously for six
minutes when Sanner, for the Collegians,
succeeded in caging the sphere in a
most sensational shot from the court
The sensational goal throwing of c.
Graham for Mt. Savage and the team
work of Sincell and Sanner for the
locals, featured the game. Reidler, of
the home team, was at his best and put
up an excellent game.
Manager Koonts of Mt. Savage re-
peatedly objected to the decisions of
the referee, he beng the first manager
to be displeased by the decisions of Rev
Bremen, who is noted for his fairness
and unbiased work on the floor.
Giessman, who played center for the
Collegians in the first half, made good
showing and promises to add strength
to the team in the future.

Gain In Postal Savings.

Evidence of the confidence in Uncle
Sam, banker, which aliens have, never
was more convincing than now. For
43 months postal savings accumulated
at the rate of about 81, 900, 900 a month.
Then, when the European war began,
Withdrawals tell off and thousands of
strange faces appeared at postoffices
with money in hands to intrust to the
government.
Hence the August figures showed
net gain in deposits of $4,000, 000-four
times the average gain. September
and October rolled up over So, 500, 900
each, and, although November and
December felt the usual holiday drains,
those months, nevertheless, were
marked by more than twice the normal
receipts.
The new year opened with approx
mately $50, 200, coo on deposit in postal
banks to the credit of 497, 200 persons.

The DEATH OF Mr.. H. J. FREkR
Particulars Of His Demise Contained
In an Oregon Newspaper.

Last Thursday The Republican an
nounced the death of Former Mayor
Harry J. Frear, which occurred at
Roseburg, Oregon, on Tuesday, the End
inst, but at the time particulars were
lacking. Since then. however, a copy
of the Evening News, published at
Roseburg, has been received in Oak
land, from which the following par
ticulars concerning the death of Mr..
Frear is taken:
H. J. Frear, one of Roseburg's best
known citizens, passed away at his home
on West MoSher street this afternoon
at one O'Clock, after an ILLNESS which
had been of but few days duration.
But few of his friends knew that he
had been i'll at all and the news of his
death came as a shock TO all who had
the pleasure of his acquaintanceship.
Mr. Frear was a native of Pennsyl-
vania, having been born in Factory
vile, Wyoming county, on January 20,
1864. Mr.. Frear graduated from
stitution founded by his father and
ldItI vi cilISISu LSlliRu uuiNeTNlLV
where he took a course in civil en-
gineering. After leaving the univer-
sity he spent few years in California
where he engaged in the work of his
chosen profession. In 1894 he entered
the employ of the old Preston Lumber
and Coal Co, which afterwards was
taken over by the Kendall Lumber Co.
In 1906 Mr.. Frear came to Roseburg to
make report for his company on the
lumber which was on certain pieces of
property the company was considering
purchasing. After these purchases had
been made the Kendall Brothers pur-
chased the waterworks plant and Mr.
Frear was placed in charge of the COM
pany's properties in this county.
During the past four years Mr.. Frear
has made three trips east on important
missions for his employers, buying
timber and planning railroads into the
timber lands which were purchased.
Mr.. Frear was a member of the
Masonic and |. o. o. F. lodges in his
native town in Pennsylvania. He leaves
a widow and one son, Floyd, of this
city, and a sister in Panama. The
funeral arrangements have not been
made, but it will be held from the
home.

Some Record.

The newspaper has made presidents,
killed poets; made bustles for beauties
and punished genius with criticism. 1t
has curtailed the power of kings, con-
verted bankers into paupers and graced
pantry shelves. 1t has made paupers
college presidents, it has educated the
poor and robbed the philosopher of his
reason; it smiles, cries, dies, but it
can't be run to suit everybody, and the
man will be crazy who tries.

Only the timely return of the father,

in the crib and yiciously bit the child on
the cheek and head when left alone.

And all this goes to show that the
cost of government is going up along
with the cost of mere living, but where
the Legislature failed was in not pro-
viding new revenue. Instead, it cut
the revenue down by removing certain
taxes and modifying others.

is the old theme of the vice presi-
dency and the fifth wheel. which
so many, have handled.
Of late years, however. the vice presi-
dency has been looking up" Men
of ability have found opportunity in
the place to render their party. the
country, and themselves important
service. Use has been found for the
fifth wheel, and the progress of the
coach has been the steadier and
smoother for it.
Mr.. Hobart was a most distinct
aid to Mr. Mckinley. Business ques-
tions were in hand then as the re-
suit of the campaign of 1896, and Mr..
Hobart's success in business and his
wide acquaintance in business cir
cles made him valuable adviser to
his chief. He was often consulted,
and always to advantage. His death
was a real loss to his party. Had
he lived he would have been re-
elected with his chief, and thus have
succeeded him in the White House
when the Buffalo tragedy fell.
Mr.. Fairbanks played a quiet but
influential part in the Office. The
presence in the chair of man of his
sagacity and level-headednes was of
much help to the republican leaders
of the Senate in all their work.
Coming to the Senate straight from
the House. where he had served for
years and found a place among the
leaders, Mr.. Sherman was at ease at
once as the presiding officer. and
welded the gavel to the satisfaction
of all. He, too, was a positive party
and parliamentary force in the vice
presidency.
OF Mr.. Marshall it may be said
that he is as popular at the White
House as in the Senate, and deserves
his standing at both ends of the
Avenue. Not an expert parliament
tartan, he yet holds the scales well;
and he came through the fires of the
ship bill flibuster, which were hot
at times, without a scar He gave
both sides a square deal
In republican circles attention is
fixed on the question of the right
man for first place on their ticket
next year. But it will be important
to choose the man for second place
with care. The vice presidency now
has claims to consideration which
should not be disregarded. The lat
est occupants have developed the
possibilities of the Office.

An "Ex" as a Critic.

The President yesterday. with a
display of good nature, declined to
deny the right Of an ex-President to
criticise the performances of man
in the White House. He pleasantly
intimated that when his own turn
as critic came he might improve his
opportunities. Let US hope he may.
Mr.. Wilson recognizes the fact that
this is the land of free speech and a
free press. 1t is also the land of the
interview. That form of spreading
opinions worth spreading before the
public was invented by an American
journalist, and has been carried to
high degree of usefulness and en-
tertainment by his professional
brethren. =
And the interviewer, like death,
loves a shining mark. He flies,
whenever possible, for the highest
game. For the ordinary person, the
two absolutely certain things are
death and taxes. To these is added
for the celebrity, the interview. He
cannot escape. After he has said or
done something fixing public atten-
ton upon himself, he is expected to
respond favorably whenever applied
to for his views of current topics
within-and sometimes without-the
range of his vision.
An ex-President naturally follows
political affairs with lively interest.
If his successor is of his own party.
he checks off new policies, or new
features of old policies, to see how
they square with his own notion of
things. If his successor is Of the op-
posite party, he traces with even
keener curiosity the lines of the new
regime
And he, too-he particularly-must
meet the interviewer. Wise is he,
too, when he meets him pleasantly.
and says something. To refuse all
communication might be more illu-
minating than spoken adverse criti-
c1sm. Silence, IN the circumstances,
might carry farther than desired.
Mr.. Wilson is wise as we'll as good
natured in reserving his own rights.
II he is defeated next year, political
topics will appeal to him nightly
after March 4, 1917. His SAY" will
be not only comforting, but profit
able. With his gift of expression, he
will be able to find ready market
at his own figures for all the output
of his pen. The public will read with
| avidity all he may care to express
about the new man and the new
course.
But even if the prefix "ex" is de-
layed until March, 1921, Mr.. Wilson
will still be young enough to keep up
with the procession, and important
enough to command attention as a
commentator on the times.
