Charles Ball, Of Bloomington, fined 81
and costs.

MEMORIAL DAY
TOBEOBSERYED
Fraternal Organizations and
School Children VIII Be In Charge

In another column of The Republican
today will be noticed a communication
from an old soldier who regrets the fact
that the ranks of the veterans have so
thinned that it will be impossible for
the soldiers as an organization to carry
out the annual Decoration Day services
and makes the suggestion that the duty
be shifted to thegshoulders of those who
are enjoying good health and are
Younger in years.
Following this, it has been arranged
by committee of three or four young
men of town to properly carry out the
suggestions therein made and in so do
ing they have taken upon themselves a
patriotic duty that3should appeal, just
at this time, to every resident of the
town.
AS the committee has arranged it a
parade will be formed at 1890 o'clock
at the Knights Of Pythias building on
Third street, composed of the few re-
naming old soldiers, the fraternal Or
CARNATIONS of not only Oakland but of
every town in the county, the High
and Grammar school pupils and any
others who desire to join, and march to
the cemetery where the graves of the
dead will be decorated and where ad-
dresses will be made by Revs. w. M.
Shultz, A. D. Appleton, DR.. Ely and
DR.. Moore. The paradelwill be mar
shalad by DR.. Henry w. McComas and
will be led by the famous Keyser Band
which organization has been secured
for the occasion.
In the afternoon a baseball game will
be played IL the Oakland Hotel grounds
between the Oakland team and a nine
from a nearby town.

FOR CLERK OF
CIRCUIT COURT
Mr.. E. z. Tower Announces His
Candidacy In This Paper Today.

Among the political announcements
published in The Republican this week
will be found one that appeals particu-
larry to the people of Garrett county,
coming as it does from one that has
served the public well through a long
term of years, who in fact has given the
best portion of his life as a public Of
fetal.
The candidate is Mr.. h. Z. Tower,
Clerk of the Circuit Court, who de-
sires TO succeed himself in the office he
is so exceptionally well qualified 10 fill.
Mr.. Tower is probably better known by
the people of Garrett county than any
other resident within her borders. For
upwards of forty years he has been as
ISOLATED in the Office of the Clerk either
as deputy or principal and in all that
time he has devoted his energies to the
execution Of his duties as such. He is
well versed in law and is thoroughly ac-
quainted with the records Of his Office.
Many times every day be leaves his
desk to favor people from every sec.
ton of the county and state who call
at his office
MIR. Tower has always been efficient
and palnstsking and it is said that no
other Circuit Clerks office in the State
can compare with that of Garrett
county. MIR Tower solicits the votes
of the Republicans at the primary and
if diligence counts for anything he
should have them.

bout at the Academy of Music on

Never before have the fans in this

lty of seeing a world champion in
this city and the local promoter went
to considerable expense to bring
the champion to this city to workout
for the fans. Ross is considered one
of the headliners in the game, and
was the best man the promoter could
get to book with Turner. Those who
have followed the game think a great
deal of Ross work and feel that he
will give Turner good, hard battle
to pin his shoulders to the mat.

ADVERTISE IN THE TIMES.
SERIOUS TIMES AHEAD
Richard Carroll Urges the Sowing of
Wheat.

To the Editor:
There are many negro readers of
your journal-the leaders of the race
in South Carolina. l fer to the
preachers and teachers; then there
are many white reade' of your jour
nal who would gladly give informa-
tlon and instruction to the negro peo-
pie. AS l see it there are some Sc
rious problems ahead of us for the
next IL months. First, the food prob
lem. The chances are that the prices
of food will go upward instead Of
downward. Then there is the labor
problem. We can't produce food with
out labor. Everything possible should
be done to get our people to sow
wheat and other grain, not only those
who live in the country but those who
live in the city should get an acre or
two of ground and sow wheat, rye,
oats and plant everything in the vege-
table line that will grow from Jan
uary to January. l never tell people
to do what l am not doing myself;
somewhere" in South Carolina l
planted wheat this week. The labor
problem will continue to be serious
unless the negro and the white people
can get together. Even now there is
a wood famine, people in the cities
can't get wood to burn because there
is no one to cut it; there is plenty of
wood but the cutters and haulers are
few. Our people who farmed have
"plenty of money" and they are not
dependent on wood for cash, at least
for the present. I found in the last
