man to have charge of the States le-

periments.
knowledge of the law has been the
engrossing goal of Mr.. Armstrong;
ambition. All his other activities
are incidental The only offices he
has held have been in the line of his
profession. To legal proficiency he
has devoted himself with the steady
diligence for which he is noted. He
has large Office practice in his home
town and has appeared before the
United States courts and State Com
missions in important cases.
Born in Hagerstown, June %, 1877,
having graduated at the Washington
County Academy with valedictory
honors, he went to Princeton Univer-
sity for four years, graduating as val
edictorian in 1899, and capturing
fellowship in history and jurispru-
dence, which, after years post grad
uate work at Princeton brought to
him his A, B. degree. He earned,
by tutoring, the money to pay his way
through the University of Pensylva-
MIA Law School, from which he gradu-
ated with high honors in 1908.
He took back to Hagerstown not
only a reputation for scholarship,
but large assortment of tennis
championship trophies, for Mr.. Arm
strong played tennis and baseball
with the same earnestness of purpose
that he acquired his masterw of legal
knowledge, but his athletic prowess
was always subordinated to his main
objective-that of becoming first
class lawyer.
He was appointed City Attorney of
HageT3town in 1904 and held that
office for two years; he was elected

direct in his methods, cordial in his
manners, frank in all his utterances,

ARMISTICE DAY \ HOLIDAY
November 18th Will Be Observed
Throughout The State.

Governor Harrington has announc-
ed that he would proclaim November
II Armistice Day, and declare it a
State holiday. He wants the anniver-
sary of the day the Germans bent the
knee to The American and allied forces
commemorated in fitting manner, and
it is possible that celebrations will be
held throughout the State.
The day means much to all Ameri-
cans, but the Service Star Legion, for
nerly the War Mothers, Indicate how
much it meant to them when they put
into their constitution a provision that
the American flag and the service
banner shall be thrown to the winds
on each anniversary of the day of
victory
Tentative plans have been made by
many residents of the country for
celebrations similar to those which
take place on the Fourth of July.
Suggestions to that effect have come
from many well-known men.

on the increasingly close cooperation
Of the United States and the British

acquaintance which the conditions of
active service have often imposed.

SENATOR FLETCHER'S SPEECH

In the Senate the other day, Sena-
tor Fletcher spoke as follows in be-
half Of the League of Nations:
"The crosses that speak of heroism
and sacrifices extending from the
English channel to the Swiss border,
reach out their arms in mute appeal
to the representatives of civilized peo-
pies to see to it that such slaughter,
destruction and barbarity shall never
again blight the earth.
"The president has pointed the way
of hope for humanity and assurance
for the world. Shall this Senate turn
its back and refuse it's advice and
consent.
sit is due the dead and manned of
all the allied armies and the bereaved
of the home population, that the en-
lightened nations of the earth should
see to. it in the final settlement of
terms, that provision be made where
by never again should any autocrat
or military clique be able to pour the
sweet milk of concord into hell
Expressing regret that the Senate
cannot unite with those around the
peace table," Senator Fletcher criti-
cized opponents of the league cove
nant inclusion in the treaty.
"They not only oppose the league
Of nations plan now. before u.s." he
said, "but they are opposed to any
kind of plan. 1t is not worth while
to discuss the details of the plan sub
mitted so far as they are concerned.
1t could not be made satisfactory to
them. No amendment, no reservation,
no separate construction, no condition
could be framed that would cause it to
meet with their favor"

The London Times of July 4 says:
The festival of independence Day is

They are now trying to reopen the
Mooney case. because an agent of the
department of labor listened in with
a dictagraph on the district attorney
of San Francisco and discovered evil
dence, he says, that Mooney was
framed. A dictagraph is no good
without a truthful man at the listen
ing end, and we would as soon believe
the district attorney of any state
court as an agent of the department
of labor which for several years has
been making a noise like a political
machine. We suppose the next amend
ment proposed will be one taking
away from the states the right to try
and punish their criminals.

The New York Times says that the
regular negro residents of Washing
ton are law-abiding and respectful to-
ward the whites, and that the disturb
ances of the last week or so have been
owing to the negroes who have come
in from other parts in the past two or
three years. This may be so. But
there are more negroes in New Or
leans than in Washington, yet the
negroes of New Orleans have given
less trouble in ten years than the
negroes in Washington have given in
ten days.
