CAMPAIGN GUNS BOOM

The first long political meeting, held
by the Republicans in this campaign,
took place on Wednesday night of this
week at Rockville, Montgomery
county. Despite the fact that the
meeting was in an overwhelmingly
Democratic section, it was the largest
and best meeting pulled eff in that
county in years. Congressman Wood,
of Indiana, and Mandell, of Wyoming,
spoke at the meeting. as did DR.. JOS
eph |. France, candidate for U. S.
Senator and State Senator F. n. Zihl-
man, candidate for Congress. The
speech of DR.. France is reported in
the daily papers as the "best of the
evening and the following significant
extract is taken from that report:
A great segment of the Demo-
cratic party in this state has drifted
a long way from the teachings of
Thomas Jefferson, or if you please
to come down to even date, from the
teachings of Thomas Marshall, vice
president of the United States. Mr..
MarshalPs recent enumeration of
the principles of Democracy would
hardly be in place on the "banner
with a strange device" which the
present leaders of Maryland's de-
mocracy have flung to the breezes
If government ownership of public
utilities is democratic Doctrine, then
Thomas Jefferson and Thomas Mar
shall are not Democratic names to
conjure with. If paternalistic cod
ding is to replace individual oppor-
tunity, then the hands of arrant
socialism-and | for one, do not be-
lieve that our Maryland people are
ready to indorse any such program.
The same Democratic state machine
which is offering US the program
has already provided US with a fore
taste of what it would mean.
Inefficiency And Graft.
The taxpayers of Maryland are
today groanng under a burden of
taxation which is purely the product
of governmental inetiiciency and
and graft. The shameful waste and
extravaganza, of which the Demo
cratic machine in the state has been
guilty. have called forth the con-
demnation of the people and the
public press without regard to party
and the worst is yet to come. if |
read Alright the signs of the times
in the circles of official taxation.
And the same Democratic leaders
who are responsible for this wret-
Chcd story of governmental mis-
management are the leaders who in
the person Of their nominee for the
high Office Of United States senator
are asking you to widen the sphere
Of governmental inefficiency by in
dorsiug the doctrine of government
tai ownership. | ask you again, are
they good Democrats. good citizens,
or good business men?

Billy Sunday was interestingly reflected
in sermon preached by Rev. B. G. Lap
sky at the morning service IN the he'd
ding Methodist church Sunday. "The
Meaning and Spirit of the Sunday Cam
paipn" was the subject chosen by the
pastor, who returned Saturday from a
soiourn of several days in the tabernacle
city. Rev. Mr. Lipsky devoted much OF
his time to a discussion of the purposes
of the Sunday campaign although latter.
ly he treated of its tangible results ana
spoke illuminatingly of the dynamic
force that finds its expression in the pull
nit utterances of Sunday himself. The
preacher corroborated the assertion oil
MANY others that the evangelist is deadly
in earnest and that all of his fire and
life and energy is thrown into the evan
pelizipg business. He subscribed to the
well known discovery that there is only
one Billy Sunday and that notorlety
seeking preachers who copy the pulpit
methods of the baseball player are IN
danger of achieving results that'are dia'
metrically opposed to the results OF the
Sunday campaigning. The pastor had nc
criticism to offer in discussing the vio'
lent manners and slangy vocabulary at
tributed to Sunday.

A shooting iron of antique design
which is assuredly horse pistol il not a
Colt is exhibited by Frank w. Nichols,
North Main street electrician, who has
something of penchant for old-time
weapons. The weapon measures nearly
IA inches and is a well preserved relic OF
the days when dangerously contentious
arguments were settled on the field OF
honor and not at the corner grocery. Mr.
Nichols acquired the pistol sometime ago
and prizes it as one of the most valuable
pieces in his collection. He has the data
to prove that it was used in the Mexican
war and was not discarded entirely until
long after our weaker neighbor to the
south had been subdted.
Shopping along Barre's business see
ton opened up briskly this morning and
sub-zero thermometer readings OF the
early morning did not seem to deter git
seekers from being on the grounds by

with fresher snowfalls, is promised for
the week and merchants are anticipating
a brisk business. Stores are to remain
open each evening during the week and
there is scarcely shop without its aug
mented staff of assistants. With the adj
vent of sleighng last week, out OF town
shoppers were more numerous and as fine
travelling conditions still obtain, the in
nux this week will be even larger.
