The list of picnics throughout the
county, as published in THE CITIZEN
some weeks ago, has furnished clew to
follow up nearly all the candidates who
have any means of transportation or To-
comotion whatsoever. The season is on
now in its full tide, and for several weeks
people will be congregating in the groves
and along the mountain side enjoying the
freedom and pleasure that only picnic
can give not only to the country but to
the city folks as well. Here it is that
the candidate finds the prospect for him
self, and here they all HE early and late
to advance their cause, and beat the other
fellow to it if possible. There are sew.
eral very large picnics in the county, in
Guiding the one near Liberty last week
and the one at Buckeystown last Wednes-
day. The Liberty picnic was included
in the itinerary of Senator Lee and his
party, and they were the only State can
didates present. Quite large number
of those seeking county nominations were
on hand, and seemed to be pleased with
the progress each and every one made.
AT Buckeystown Wednesday there was
a great outpouring of both the State and

Munshower Leads Company A.

Credited with being the most ex-
pert small-arm shot of the county and
holding that place for years, and hav-
ing represented Maryland on the State
and national rifle teams, Capt. Elmer
F. Munshower, of Company A, M. N.
G., during the annual small arms
practice on the State range led Com
pany A in accuracy. He had mar
gin of eleven points over his nearest
competitor, who was J. P. Grahe.
Out of a possible $50 points on five
different ranges, including slow and
rapid fire both, Captain Munshower
secured 227 points, lacking but %
points from making perfect score.
Up until the present time Company
A is leading the companies Of the
State in figure of merit. Six or seven
members of the company have yet to
qualify. They are accredited with be-
ing some of the best men of the
company.
Out of AZ men shooting on the range
two weeks ago, six qualified as ex-
perts, IL as sharpshooters, 16 as
marksmen, and as first-class men.
Six men failed to qualify.
Captain Munshower has received
accurate scores from the clerk of the
range. The scores:
Yards-Slow fire, 800, 500, 6OO Rap

in years has there been such heavy
downpOur of rain for as long period of
time, and all the streams in the county
were banked full, even to OVERLOOKING.
Strangely indeed does nature show its
masterful hand on some occasions, and
even in this latest visitation, We are
taught to believe that there is good con-
cealed somewhere therein. although we
doubt if those directly effected can yet
come to such a belief. The farmer af-
ter all seems mostly in the track of the
hand of Providence, and when he come S
through season nnscathed, with boun-
tiful crop gathered in the barn or sold to
the produce men. he can shake hands
with himself and feel then secure for
many hours of labor and toll and ex-
pense. Most Of the things he grows
are subject to damage from nature for
ces, and he is never secure until the
crop is cut, garnered, stored or sold.
There has not been reported any vast
amount of property damage, and fortu-
nately no loss of life in this section. All
around Baltimore and the Chesapeake
Bay and its tributaries the damage was
fearful, and many buildings, wharfs,
store houses, and valuable boats were
destroyed or seriously damaged This
is the period Of the year when thunder
storms are most likely to occur, and due
prudence ought to be exercised by those
who wish to avoid serious consequences.

Manor Woods Picnic a Great
Success.

The well-known Manor woods picnic
was held in the grove near the Manor
church on Wednesday last, and as usual,
many thanks to very pretty day, was
wonderful success from all standpoints.
In recent years it has become mecca
Tor political candidates, and Wednesday
capped the climax in the number attend
ing. From all parts of the county peo-
pie came and spent the morning, after
noon and evening in enjoying the many
pleasantries provided by the very efficient
management. TO add special interest to
the occasion. Hon. Blair Lee, candidate
Tor Governor, was present, as were also
Messrs. Albert G. Richie and William
Mines Maloy candidates for Attorney
General, and W. B, Copper, candidate
for Comptroller. Mr.. Harrington and
Mr.. McMullen were not present owing to
engagements in Baltimore City. The
candidates were introduced to the voters
by the committee in charge, and later
several addresses were made. The pic
nc IN every respect was great success,
both from social and financial stand
point, and reflects great credit upon those
who had it in charge.

Mayor Preston of Baltimore CITY spoke
at several meetings in Baltimore recent
ly, and made the declaration that he does
not want State leadership. In the
course of his speech, the Mayor said the
people were as yet apathetic, not having
awakened to the importance of the cam
paign, the issues of which were primar-
lily good government in Baltimore, as far
as they were concerned. He predicted
the election of Blair Lee should he be
nominated. He said he believed in the
rule of the people, and that if Mr.. Lee
is elected Governor, he expects to intro
duce some new ideas in management Of
the State affairs.

THE great storm which swept over
nearly all parts of Maryland on
Tuesday night and Wednesday
morning last was one of the most de
structive in recent years, and the dam
age is estimated up into the millions.
Not only houses and ships, but the corn
crops all over the state were blown down
and very badly damaged. Here in
Frederick county especially the loss will
be very great, and coming as it does
just before canning season, may very
seriously handicap that industry this
year However some of the corn is
very well rooted and too young to be
oyerweighted with ripening ears. The
upper part of the county seemed to suf-
fer more than other sections, that is
from reports, although there was a gen
eral effect noted from the storm. Not

Mr.. Richie and Mr.. McMullen as well
as Mr.. Lee and Mr.. Maloy and Mr..

pleased with meeting the voters and en-
joying the hospitality which is always 50

The Baltimore American is authority
Tor the statement that Congressman J..
Fred Z. Talbot and former Senator John
$. Biddison have split and are separated
on the Baltimore county local ticket, and
that hereafter they will be found lined up
on opposite sides of the fence. The dis
pute or disagreement is said to have been
brought about by Mr.. Biddison's oppo-
sition to the denomination of County
Commissioner George W. Yellott. The
paper does not state what side Senator
Blddlson will take in the Lee Harrington
contest, but Congressman Talbot has
spoken out strongly for MIR. Harrington.
1t is apparent therefore that the conten.
ton is only on the local affairs of Balti
more county.

DECENTLY the Baltimore and
N Ohio Railroad issued small

pamphlet containing a list Of all
the fruit growers within traffic distance
of their lines. This embraces Mary
land, Virginia, West Virginia and parts
of Pennsylvania. These pamphlets have
been sent to dealers all over the country
and have proven a great aid to this in
dustry. 1t shows how a railroad COM
pany can help build up business and
industries along its line, and the Balti
more and Ohio lately has demonstrated
very smart and practical attention to
this matter. 1t makes increased bust
ness for those whom it serves as a trans
portation agent. 1t is advertising
brought directly home to the people,
and shows that the limitless opportuni.
ties in this field are far from being ex-
hausted.

IN an editorial last week in The CIT
IZEN welcomed the seemingly authen-
tic report that Frederick would be
upon the line of the Lincoln Highway run
ming from New York to San Francisco,
or from coast to coast This informa-
ton came apparently at first hands, and
was published in the Baltimore papers.
1t now seems that mistake had been
made, and that Frederick will be on
what is known as the Feeder Road. "
or in other words, turnpike or road
leading directly to the Lincoln High
way. This goes west from Philadelphia
to Lancaster, and thence to Gettysburg.
Frederick will have direct line to En-
mitSburg, and thence to Gettysburg, and
automobiles from Baltimore can reach
the Highway by several routes, and so
can those from Washington. This news
will be great disappointment to this
community, which felt well within its
rights in asking for recognition by the
Commission which has the construction
of this road in charge, both for histori-
cal and geographical reasons, but as in
many other things in life, we will have
to grin and bear and make the best of it.

Mr.. Frank Furst, the well-known bus
mess man and politician of Baltimore,
president of the Maryland Dredging
Company, which has large contracts all
over the country, and also of the Arun-
del Sand and Gravel Company, and one
of the State leaders, is now appearing on
the stump in advocacy of the nomination
of Mr.. Harrington for Governor. He
made his second speech Wednesday night
at an open air meeting near his old resi-
dence on the corner of Baltimore street
and Broadway, where large crowd lis
tened with rapt attention to his homely
remarks. Mr.. Furst made quite a
lengthy speech, and referred to the fact
Of having lived in that section of Balti-
more City for over sixty years, and much
of his remarks were of territorial i'm
port. He spoke of the candidates he
favored, that is Mr.. Harrington, Mr..
Ritchie and Mr.. McMullen, in the most
eulogistic terms, and urged his friends
and the voters to turn out and give them
their. conscientious and hearty support,
confident in the fact that the interests of
Baltimore City could be well intrusted to
their hands. He explained the fact that
a primary election was nothing but an
arbitration held by loyal party men to
select standard bearers for the party.
which in their judgment would be best
qualified to take care Of the affairs of
State, and that differences of opinion
were but natural as long as they did not
interfere with the proper exercise of the
franchise by the people and united
party when once the candidates were Sc
lected. He further said that no loyal
Democrat every sulked or deserted when
an honest majority was recorded against
him. Perty organization, which is alb
solutely necessary and essential to party
success, has certain well-defned limits
beyond which it should not attempt to
90. As every Democrat who loyalty
supports the ticket at the general election
is an integral part of the party organiza
ton, those who for the time being are
the official representatives of all Demo
Gratis should not attempt to commit the
organization officially to any candidate or
set Of candidates. bus should stand liter
ally upon the basic principle Of Democ-
racy--equal and exact justice to all and
special favors to none--any other policy
is tyranny, not Democracy. Wise coun-
sci is necessary at this time, so that the
people will be in position to exercise
their best judgment in selecting their
candidates. Mr. Furst regretted that
the action of many party leaders in Bal
tlmore should have prejudiced their fol-
lowing in a certain direction, and spoke
personally of many Of the leaders whom
he knew for long years. He hoped be
fore long they would see the error of their
ways and come over and join the old
friends of long ago, where they would
feel more at home and better able to look
out fos the interests of the party and the
people.
