Bridge Committee Meets.

AT a meeting of the legislative COM
mittees of Maryland and West Viz
ginia held in HagerStown last week in
reference to the purchase OF the
bridges over the Potomac liver at
WilliamSport, Shepherdstown, Han
cock and Harper's Ferry, and making
the toll free, it was decided that the
committees should ascertain by No
vember the lowest possible cost At
which the bridges could be purchased
In November these committees will re-
port on the data that they succeed
in collecting on the matter.
A report was submitted by a COM
mittee of engineers of the Maryland
State Roads Commission to the effect
that at the present time the cost to
build the bridges would be as follows:
Hancock, SIG, 320; Williamsport bridge,
S77,970; Shepherdstown bridge, SlS,-
600, and Harper's Ferry bridge, $780,
$50, a total of Sl56,240.
Some of the bridge stockholders took
exception to the report OF the engineers,
who said that a couple Of the bridges
were little more than Junk. Ii doesn't
seem likely that there will be any
agreement as to prices, and if the
bridges are to be acquired it will prob
ably have to be by condemnation.

don, who will preach the baccalaureate
sermon at the Shepherd College COM
mencement June 18th, has received
call to the Congregational Church of
San Francisco, California, at $1,000
year, just double his salary here. This
pastor has solved the Thursday prayer
meetings and gets three or four hun

Fully half of the grand army OF
$4,000 World War workers went over TO
Arlington Cemetery, May Both. Fully
10000 OF the 100000 clerks have gone
home since armistice, but expect July
LIST many more will be dropped from
the pay rool. It's a great sight to see
these picked girls from 48 States, in
bloom of youth going TO work. Fully
twenty came from each of the 5000
counties in the United States to help
Uncle Sam at war. They have learned
10 spend 500 a month, and will later
make some husband howl to get it.
AT Arlington a new iron fence has
been put around graves of Mrs. Robert
E. Lees ancestors. The u. S. paid
the Lees $4,000 for 400 acres 50
years ago there. | noticed Miss Mary
Lee willed nearly that sum to relatives
last year. Fully 1000 locust hul!s
were at root of trees there May 3Oth,
and the locuSts sang weird funeral
song above. Not near so many over
in Maryland.
Uncle Sam keeps us busy since the
war. Before the war national expense
was near 900 millions. Now il takes
900 millions to pay interest on bonds.
So we are a two billion dollar country
now, not fully paid by banks. Our
division of Treasury, $50 girls, checks
up interest coupons, paid big banks.
The Treasury has sold 100 carloads of
silver dollars to the British which emp
ties 10 bins, which hold 100 barrels
corn. Prosperity is seen on every
side in our city.

Notes of the Churches.

President J. A. Morehead, of Roa-
noke College, Salem, Va, welI-known
in Shepherdstown, sailed from New
York last Thursday as chairman OF a
Lutheran commission, which will un-
dertaNe extensive reconstruction work
among Lutheran churches in various
sections of Europe which have suffered
so greatly because of the war. The
work will be under the auspices of the
United Lutheran Church in America,
which has 100000 at its disposal for
this work. DR.. MorelNad, who expects
to be absent at least six months, asks
his friends and the friends Of Roanoke
College to keep the home fires burning
while he is away. Prof. Dennis b.
Welsh has been elected general secre-
tary of the college and Prof G. G..
Peery is acting as dean.
The ministerial Association of Shep-
herdstown at a recent meeting elected
Rev. William Rogers president and
Rev. J. H. Haley secretary. The min
listers at their meeting the first of the
week decided to begin the open-air ser
vices for the summer on Sunday June
10Th, and will continue them through
Iuly and August Our people have al
ways enjoyed these services and will
be glad to know that they are TO be
resumed.
A movement is projected by some
of the members Of Trinity Episcopal
Church, Shepherdstown, looking to thd
sale of the rectory property on New
street and the erection of a new recto.y
on the west side of the church property
on Main street. A petition will be
presented to the members of the
church asking for endorsement of the
plan.
There will be no public worship in
the Presbyterian churches of Shep-
herdStown and Kearneysville Sunday.
The pastor will be absent, by appoint
ment of Winchester Presbytery, as

THE convention of the American
Federation of Labor at Atlantic City
yesterday adopted resolutions petition
ing Congress to remove the ban from
beer and wine and to nullify the provi-
sionS of the war prohibition measures.
That this organization allows itself to
be used as a catspaw by the brewers
will not increase the respect of the
general public, which is becoming
more and more suspicious of its pa
triotism and good intentions. Some of
the speakers who were strong for beer
had the impudence to declare that pro-
hibition was really the cause of BolShe-
vism and other revolutionary condi-
TONS. The delegates from such be-
sotted centers as Baltimore and Gin
cinnati were strong for booze, and
they enthusiastically voted for beer
and the saloons.
On the other hand, many sensible
delegates earnestly opposed the resolu-
ton. John B. Lennon, of Illinois, a
prminent labor official, declared that it
was German propaganda to hinder the
efficiency of the American workman
and that it was a backward step for or
ganizcd labor to make. The delegation
from Seattle showed how conditions
had imprved since prohibition had
gone into effect there and told how
much better off workmen are. Other
delegates expressed themselves for
prohibition, but they were voted down
by the foreign element in the conven-
ton.

THE Germans still insist that they
cannot and will not sign the peace
treaty unless it is modified to suit their
demands. A good many people have
come to the opinion that the time for
argument has passed. If the Huns
continue their insolent and stubborn
attitude the Allies ought TO move right
into Germany and let that country
know what an invasion really means,
The peace conditions ought to be en-
forced to the letter, whether the Ger
mans are willing or not. From the
very beginning of the war down to the
present hour the Germans have done
absolutely nothing to call forth the
slightest consideration from the Allies
or any other civilized nation. They
are still Huns to the core, and the only
thing that they can understand is brute
force. The time has come TO treat 'em
rough and let them know that the Allies
mean business.

CONGRESS having finally passed
the resolution providing for the plac-
ing Of the equal suffrage amendment
before the forty-eight States, Mrs. Car
rie Chapman Gait, president of the Ma
tional Woman's Suffrage Association,
has asked the Governors Of twenty-five
States to call special sessions of their
legislatures to vote upon the amend
ment. Governor Cornwell is among
those who have thus been appealed to.
West Virginia by its expressed vote at
the polls has not shown itself strong
for woman suffrage, and We doubt if
an extra session at this time would &C
complish anything. On the other
hand, suffrage is just bound to come,
and West Virginia and the other States
may just as we'll vote for it now, as they
surely must do eventually.
Three States ratified the amend
ment on Tuesday. Illinois was first,
the Senate being unanimous for the
measure, while the House passed it 1872
to 3; Wisconsin came next, the Senate
vote being 81 to 2 and the House % TO
/. The Michigan Legislature voted
for the amendment unanimously in
both houses. Governor Smith of New
York has called the Legislature to meet
in extra session next Monday to act
upon the amendment
The friends of the cause are making
a flying start and We predict a whirl-
wind finish-and that. too, before very
long.

IN Baltimore Sunday night lieu
tenants colonel in the Army and PROM
inent business man of Washington
were arrested with two women in a lead
ing hotel for disgraceful conduct,
Baltimore is a resort for sports of nigh
and low degree who flock to its ever
open liquor establishments regardless
of all deccncy and morality. Scarcely
a day passes that there is not some
tragedy or scandal directly attributable
TO its whiskcy joints. Fortunately
these places will all be closed the last
o? the month, but in the meantime Ba.
more will have gained sorry reputa-
son for itself.

IN New York on Tuesday Julius
Barnes, United States Wheat Director,
declared at a conference of several
hundred representatives of the grain
industries of this country that in his
opinion it would be necessary for our
government to continue the guaranteed
price of S2.26 a bushel for wheat in
order to insure the production required
for the worlds needs. This is mighty
encouraging to the farmers.

saloon in the United States will be
closed. June 3Oth is their last day of
disgrace. The boozers and the
profteers in this line of business are

for them, for Congress will not dare to
lift the ban that was put on liquor as
war measure.

A DEATH TRAP.

On my return Saturday evening from
my farm in Maryland by way of DUFF
fields, stopped at KILLERS store for
oil for my automobile, leaving the store
following a carriage in front of me con
taiaine a colored man and three or four
children, who evidently did not see or
hear the express train going west, as
he was driving very slow and did not
stop after crossing. We were on the
first track when saw the train not 20
feet from me and | called to the driver,
Millard ViandS, to back. He threw
the emergency brake on and the ma
chine choked down. The next thing |
knew | was sitting in the machine be-
side the track, with front wheels and
radiator of machine mashed up, and
nobody seriously hurt. | think the
railroad company should be compelled
to have a Waterman at all of their
main crossings, as we hear Of accidents
every day, and nobody wants their lives
crushed out without warning.

Sweet Glover on Roadsides.

County Agent Hughes writes as fol-
lows concerning sweet clover:
1t is interesting TO note the growth
of sweet clover, Buffalo clover or
the "Melilotus," of the south along
our limestone roadSides. II is a sight
with which We are so familiar that we
hardly STOP to consider the cause. There
is Just one explanation. That is the
crushedAimeStonc from the road blown
by the wind from passing traffic This
plant comes naturally where there is
lime in any form. We note it some
times grown beyond the fence as far
as the lime dust has blown, but we
never find it on a sour field Sweet
clover can also be found along railroad
tracks where limestone ballast is used.
We have seen it growing in cuts where
there is a sweet subsoil. Sweet clover
is botanically closely related to alfalfa,
using the same incubation on s roots,
but not requiring quite so much lime
or phosphate as alfalfa.
Captain Getzendanner has sandy
bottom on his Shannondalc farm, or,
which he put two tons caustic lime.
Sweet clover has come into this field
as a volunteer crop and is over almost
the entire field at the present time.
Without the lime doubtless this clover
would not have made its appearance
It is a curious fact that sandstone soils
do not get as sour as limestone soils.
