because the company spent recently about
100000 for repairs and is receiving $500 a
month in tolls.
Perhaps you are charging too much
tolls" said the Judge, "and 1 UNDERSTAND
that the road is not in proper repair and
would not be accepted by the County Cone
mssioners until fixed"
,Jarzelere admitted that repairs were
made
Larzelere was under the impression that
toll-taking would cease as soon as the court
signed and a certihcation was made TO the
Philadelphia Bala and Bryn Mawr Turn-
pike Company, owner of the pike. But
Judge Swartz was OF the opinion that not
until the money Is paid by the county need
the gates be abolished.
The closing of the gates, therefore, De-
pends on what position the company Will
take, whether it will forgo $50 day and
interest on the money or demand payment
before abolishing tolls

NOT A HOPELESS PROSPECT.

If 1t shall be decided to suspend for
the period of the war the manufacture
of alcoholic beverages from grains need
ed for food, no sympathy need be vast
ed on the persons put out of business.
They have long understood they were
ENJOYING privilege, not exercising an
inherent right. If they are not in posi-
ton to quit without pecuniary loss they
have only themselves to blame. They
have had ample warning through some
years that the liquor business is doomed.
1t may be that the enormous revenue
possible to be derived from beer and
whisky will impel the government to
Withhold prohibition. If it does not,
considerable industrial disturbances NAV
be expected in such centers of the
alcoholic beverage trade as Milwaukee :,
Wis. But no better time for it than
the present ever will be known. 1t is
said that last year the brewers of Mil
waukee employed 500 persons. Army
CONSUMPTION will take so many from the
city large proportion of the brewery
employees could quicklyfnd work in other
lines. Or, the breweries could be con-
verted into producers of industrial
alcohol or food manufactures. Either
business would absorb a good many of
the men deprived of work by prohibl-
ton. When the war was over the
beer business would not be missed from
the economic scheme of the Wisconsin
city. Indeed, there is some reason to
believe the pride of other days in its
breweries is not felt by Milwaukee now.
Attempts have been made to disabuse
the American people of a persistent
notion, long fostered by Milwaukee it.
self, that the city exists on beer, in
more senses than one. AS a fact, Mil
waukee has quite diversity of indus
tries. A business organization of thai
city not long ago published list of
those of which 1t was proud as
part of town boosting scheme.
Beer was not mentioned. If Milwaukee
thus couldsturn its back on its best
known industry 1t surely could survive
its destruction in the interest of the
nation at war.

COVERUN WRECK
Among Them Was Edward d.
Griffin, Formerly of Deer Park.

In rear-end collision between a
freight train and wreck train at Cove
Run, West Va, on the Belington branch
of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad last
Friday afternoon three trainmen were
killed and four injured.
The killed were Trainmaster Edward
d. Griffin, formerly of Deer Park, to
which point his body was sent Satur-
day morning; J. c. Posten, car repair
man and S. W. White, cook on the
wreck train. The injured are R. Vim
cent, lineman; F. S. Coon, wreckmaster,
and Thomas Turner and Virgil Poe, car
repairmen.
The wreck train had stopped at the
Cove Run water tank on the Grafton
and Belington branch, IA miles south of
Grafton, to cool ''hot box" on one of
the cars when the freight train crashed
into it.
The wrecking train from Grafton
city had been up the river all night
clearing up the track at derailment
on the Belington branch and had got
ten back down the river as far as Cove
Run on its way to Grafton, pulling some
of the cars it had picked up and replac-
~ed on the rails at the first wreck. At
Cove Run it became necessary to stop
to set off one of these cars that had de-
veloped "hot box" or a broken axel.
While this work was being attended to
heavy double header freight from
Buckhannon swung around the sharp
bend coming down grade and erased in
to the rear of the wreck train.
| The wreck train was crushed and
splintered, every car in the train being
demolished except one that remained on
the track, five cars of the on-coming
freight being also piled upon the two
giant locomotives. The wreckage i'm
mediately caught fire.
The casualties resulted in the instant
death of Trainmaster Griffin, one of the
best known railroad men in that sec
ton of the state and one of the rising
men of the Baltimore & Ohio system
and the burning to death of White, the
steward of the wreck train and Posten.
of the wreck train crew. Lineman
Vincent, Thomas Turner, Virgil Poe
and Floyd S. Coon, foreman who were
seriously injured will recover.
The funeral of Mr.. Griffin took place
in Oakland on Monday from St. Peters
Catholic church, the services being at
tended by more than hundred members
of the Elks and railway trainmen, who.
on special train from Grafton. went
to Deer Park, where the Elks held
their funeral service, after which the
body was placed on the train and
brought to Oakland where the services
in the church were conducted by the
Rev. j. H. McElligott, of Grafton. a d
Rev. j. (. Connell, the local pastor.
The floral tributes were many and
extremely handsome.

merchants would have been located
elsewhere, the tax rate of the city be-
ing nearly twice that of the country.
1t is claimed that the city's system of
charging heavily for franchises and
minor privileges also has the effect of
keeping business away.
Annexationists make much use of the
slogan, Whatever helps the city helps
the State Opponents of annexation
claim that the cry, Whatever helps
the State helps the City," would be
more true. When outside capital comes
into the city or any of the counties the
whole State is benefited, but it is plain
ly an error to say that adding a slice of
county to the city will make the
State richer or more populous.

MAKE THE LOAFERS GO TO WORK
OR FIGHT,

Governor Harrington told an audi
ence at Hagerstown Thursday that
"all must fight or work" He declar-
ed the special session of the legisla-
ture would be urged to pass a drastic
law enabling the state to carry out
this idea. The idea implies that
whether they are needed or may
be drawn for fighting or not, loafers
must go to work. The law cannot
be passed too speedily nor can it be
too drastic. The state could not do a
better thing for society than to di-
rect officers in every community to
unceremoniously lay hands on all
able bodied loafers found in any
community and compel them to go to
work. They could get a few dozen
such here in Oakland. Let the law lay
hands on every fellow found in loafing
resorts and if he is not needed in the
army compel him to go to work on a
farm to be treated right, fed well, and
paid,a reasonable wage if he works, but
to be made go hungry and otherwise
Inconvenience if he persists in his
laziness. This would increase produc-
ton of food and in many cases might
redeem character and usefulness.

Rev. Bremer At Home.

The following concerning the Rev. o
a. Bremen was taken from the Hills
boro Qll.) News of recent date, Hills
boro being the home of Mr.. Bremen:
REV. Ezra KELLER. pastor of the
Lutheran church, Hillsboro: Your
reference to Rev. Otto A. Bremen.
who preached in the Lutheran church
last Sunday evening deserves a more
extended notice. Rev. Bremen is a son
of st. Pauls church, was a student at
Carthage college and a graduate of
Wittenberg College and Seminary. He
has served most acceptably the con-
gregatlon at Oakland. Md, and re-
signed to accept missionary work at
Spokane, Wash. where he goes next
week. His sermon on THE Peace
that passeth understanding" was able
and inspiring. Gifted with splendid
voice and pleasing personality, he
carried his audience with him in clos
est attention to the end. He has that
about him which suggests stability.
strength and conservation. From his
subject matter and its treatment no
one could ever suppose that he could
be swept here and there by every
wind of!doctrine. He knows whereof
he speaks by an inwrought experience.
Faithful to the Scriptures, enthusiast
tic in his vocation, appealing in man
ner and thought, he made an impress
sion that will long linger for good.
He leaves congregation that is old
and well established, for the uncer-
tainties and trials of pioneer missionary
effort. This is splendidly heroic. He
takes the courage and enthusiasm of
his youth and matches forces against
the most trying conditions that con-
front christian civilization. Those who
heard him Sunday night and who know
his strengthen character as well as his
pulpit ability believe that he will sue
coed. His wife, formerly Miss Camilla
jenkins and one of the most talented
and capable of our teachers, is also
imbued with the missionary spirit and
their mutual love and conservation for
the work of the church will bear blessed
fruitage. Their infant son, John
Roland, was baptized at the worship on
| Sunday morning."
