Il desire to say few words regard
ing the road system of the State. We
now have the finest road system of any
State in the Union, of which every
Magylander should feel proud, and now
that the main artery of the State road
is completed l hope to see the time
when every district and town in our
county will be connected up by State
road leading to the main system.

to be. will secure an appropriation to
supplement the fund already appropriate
ed to complete the road from Oakland

able means to secure an appropriation
from the State to complete the State
road leading from the main road via
Friendsville to the State line, there now
being two miles of this road provided
for under the Shoemaker Act By
securing such an appropriation from
the State will relieve the taxpayers of
the county from paying forty per cent
to complete this road as provided under
the Shoemaker law, and if possible re-
peal the Shoemaker Act so far as it
applies to Garrett county from the
State under the law, placed in the
hands Of the County Commissioners to
be given each district in the county its
pro rata share 50 that every district
may be benefited instead of only a
small section. | shall use all honorable
means to secure an appropriation from
the State TO complete the State road
leading from Gortner to the West Vir-
glnia line, also for a road leading from
Swanton and Kitzmiller via Deer Park
to connect with the main State road
from Grantsvllle via Jennings to Bit

the State road at point to be deter

Maryland State road from the National

Garrett county being the best agr-

even IL there are, so far, at
American lake only fraction of
the soldiers there will be in two
months, this much may safely be
said:
When the American army takes
the field the officers especially
are going to be the sportiest, nift-
lest set of men that ever trod the
path OF glory.
Since they are risking all, they
are going to have the satisfaction
of stepping out in the trimmest of
style. When a man offers up his
life who can deny him his fling
at fashion?
The officers are all dressed up,
in addition to having definite
places to go.
For one thing, they are going
in for swagger sticks. A swagger
stick Is something less than a
cane, minus the crooked handle.
1t is a trim little article of
adornment, but few men dare
carry one, except in uniform. The
army vindicates the wrist watch.
Because they are handy and prac-
ticable, the soldier may wear a
dainty timepiece with San illum-
mated dial strapped to his wrist.

thing else again.

broken are being carried. Pig

Napoleon was forced to abdi-

to be returned. The Bourbons
were restored, but King Louis

The Bourbons fled before Ma

and England combined again
against him and the emperor met
his last defeat at Waterloo. June

Island of st. Helena and Louis
XVIII re-entered Paris.
But pledges of liberality were
disregarded. The Bourbons re-
venged themselves on the people
and the crown tended to absolut-
ism. Charles X continued this
until it was suddenly ended by the
revolution of 1880.
Louis PHILIPPE, the "citizen
king" took the throne and was
popular with the bourgeoisie, but
his refusal of electoral reform

nephew of Napoleon /, president.
He made himself emperor Dec. 2,
1852.
Yelled under parliamentary
rule, Napoleon Ills government
was absolute. In 1859 he helped
Italy win back part of her terri
tory from Austria and won Savoy
and Nice for himself. During our
civil war he tried to establish
Macmillan of Austria as emperor

Prussia's rise after defeating
Austria in 1866 vexed Napoleon
