THE ONE GREAT ISSUE.

The recent conference in New York
between Chairman Hilles. of the Re-
publican National Committee, with a
number of prominent manufacturers
and business men, while of an intor-
NAL character, reached conclusions
that are generally accepted throughout
the country, that mot until Republi-
can is returned to the White House can
there be a return to prosperity"
Further than this, it is not believed
that the national Democratic leaders
have any well defined hopes of escaping
defeat in 1916. How can they, with
the record made by the departing Con-
gress?
1t is matter of experience, and his
tory has preserved the record, that the
prosperous times of the country have
always been under Republican admins
trations. The people know this. The
destruction of the prosperity the Demo-
cratic party succeeded to was brought
about by the abolition of the great
Republican principle of protection. The

EVERY man engaged in business or is
IN any way interested in the material
prosperity of his town and vicinity, OF
in the educational affairs of his COM
munity, or in the moral purity of society
in his neighborhood, is under great obi
cation to his local paper, and should
give 1t liberal support. not as charity,
but as duty to himself, to his family
and to his neighbers, and as wise in
vestment of his money. Take this
issue of The Republican as an illustra-
ton, of what the local press is dong
for Garrett county. This is not an is
sue of the paper specially prepared for
the occasion, but is only an average
issue put out each week of the year.
1t covers the entire county, the inter-
ests Of the farmer and the merchant.

Large Number Received Into Church

AT the morning service held in st.
Marks Lutheran church last Sunday
eighteen persons were added to the
church membership as follows: Mr..
Silas o. Wiley, Mrs. Silas O. WiIev.
Mrs. Oscar Turney, Mr. Gilbert Yutzy.
Frances Cover, Carl Clark. Ruth
Clark, Harry Glotfelty, Singleton
Townshend, Joseph Kinebaugh, Morgan
Hinebaugh, Willie Giessman, Arthur
Cogley, Fred. Cogley, Lillian Sincer,
Ruth yelling. Helen Little and
Margaret Sincell. The church was
packed with worshippers at this service
the crowd being so great that extra
seats had to be provided. The work
being done by the church membership
under the leadership of the pastor. Rev.
Bremen, is remarkable. At nearly
every service held large congregations
are present and strong gospel sermons
are preached. In the Brotherhood
Bible Glass much interest is manifested
by the members of that body. Last
Sunday more than so men were in the
class. which is steadily increasing in
number.

RUNNING TO COVER.

The most interesting political spec
tacle at present in this country is that
of the Democrats scurrying about,
looking for some place of concealment
in which to hide from the wrath of the
voters. They are throwing up verbal
dust in every direction, seeking to cover
their flight, leaving a trail that blind
man might follow. From the president
down the leaders of the party are
apologizing for the mistakes made, and
are trying to shift the blame for their
plumbers onto the victims of their short
sighted on destructive policies.
Lambasting Wall Street or booing at
the war god will not in any way alter the
fact that the depression of business in
this country began with the incoming
of the present administration. Presi-
dent Wilson and his party set about at
once, on coming to power, to change
the foundations of American commerce
and industry, and they have succeeded
30 well that the superstructure has
been almost completely wrecked as was
the underpining. which was removed
entirely, If any semblance of pros
peritv remains, it is in spite, and not
because of the activity of the Demo-
Gratis in Congress.

CLEANING TIME IS HERE AGAIN
The Civic Club Is Planning for d Gen.
erai Clean Up.

The Civic Club is now agitating a
clean up campaign for Oakland. Will
it be success? Of course; but it de-
ponds entirely upon the cooperation
given by each and every citizen. In
dividually and collectively we must put
our shoulders to the wheel" and help.
You ask. what can do?"
You must act. To talk and complain
is not enough. Clean up your entire
premises first, they look for trouble
elsewhere. Begin today. Your own
cellar needs attention. Remove all the
dirty rubbish and articles you will meyer
use again. If you have a furnace burn
the combustible materials, otherwise
place the papers, ashes and rubbish IN
receptacles and let the collector take it
away. Articles useless to you but
valuable to others will be gladly taken
by the charitable organizations. When
your cellar is clean and orderly look
over the attic and storage rooms. Re-
PSoC tliS ontliC plONSSo tISIG.
Back ward comes next. Rake the
grass, pick up the TIN cans and papers,
and remove the unsightly objects, re-
pair the outbuildings and fences, white
wash the chicken house, inside and out,
repair the chicken roost and clean up
the filth, wash the brick or cement
pavement. and do the other hundred
and one little things to make it clean
and tidy.
Provide water tight and fly proof
covered natalie garbage can. Look
over the ore you have; if it is in bad
shape buy new one. 1t is duty you
owe to the community to keep all
garbage in the required container.
Covered cans or other receptacles are
required for paper and ashes. Now is
the time to provide your home with
the sanitary receptacles.
Have you a stable? Is so, it prob
ably needs cleaning. Do it now. Pro
vide tight, t1y-proof box or pit in
which to keep all manure. Use disin-
fectants about the stalls, and in the
box after emptying. Disinfectants
will drive away the adult flies and pre-
vent the eggs from Matching. The ma
jority of flies breed in manure.
When all this is done, MIR. Owner or
Mr.. Tenant, you can and should see
that the unsanltary conditions of the
neighborhood are eliminated. If a lot
needs cleaning, why not get your
neighbors to "chip i'm and clean it up
Don't consider you have done your
duty by simply reporting the conditions
to the Department of Health. Anyone
can complain. We ask your complaints
only after you personally have tried
and failed to have the condition rem
edied.
The Civic Club have designated May
3-8 inclusive as the general cleaning up
time. Begin today. Now is the time
to act. Work gradually and do your
part at once. Madam, it is your duty
to see that your husband and sons get
busy"
