The statement of Galen L. TAFT.
Chairman of the Republican State

OF the State on the ratification of the
Woman's Suffrage by the Tennessee
Legislature, is as follows:
The Republican party of MARYLAND

State to political equality. fully en-
dowed with the right to vote. Our
party has consistently led in this great
movement, now so triumphantlv sue

publicanism, as Senator Jackson's
proxy at the recent Columbus MEETING
OF the National Republican Commit
tee, l had the pleasure of voting for
tne committees resolution calling up
On the Republican members of the
tennessee Legislature to ratify the
Suffrage amendment. The Democratic
state machine of Maryland has stead
lly contested this advance in human
nights. The platform of the last
Democratic State convention bitterly
rejected equal suffrage, and the Mary.
iand delegates of the Democratic Ma
tlonal Convention at San Francisco
strongly opposed the principles of ey-
Iehdlng to women the right to vote
But IN vain. The hand that rocks the
cradle will help to rule both State
and Nation. ''"'e

THE ASHBY REUNION
Fourth Annual Gathering of the Fam
lily Was Held On the 18th Inst.

On Saturday, August 14th, the Ash
by clan held their fourth annual re-
union in Frank Ashby's picnic grove,
near Crellin, few miles west of Oak
land, when more than two hundred
relatives and friends attended, and en-
Joyed the good dinner prepared for the
occasion by the housewives of the clan
and the splendid addresses delivered
by the Revs McCamic, Fellers and
Blake.
Mr.. N. U. Bond, of Bond, KY, was
also present and gave very inter-
esting talk relative to the early set
tiers in the Ashby family of this sec
ton of the country.
Many who were present at the re-
union came from distant points,
among whom were Arthur Ashby and
his daughter and son-in-law and their
children, of St. Louis, Mo-; Thomas
w. Ashby, wife and son, of Cumber-
land; Mr.. and Mrs. Guy Ashby and
daughter, of near Parkersburg, W.
Va; Mr.. and Mrs. William o. Ashby
and son, of Fairmont, W. Va; Mr..
and Mrs. Joseph d. Ashby, of Wash
ington, d. c., and others.
After the dinner had been served,
the Ashby choir rendered several ex-
cellent selections which were inter-
spersed with short talks by members
of the family.
The reunions are held annually on
the second Saturday of August and
the attendance grows larger each sue
ceeding year.

PEA CANNERY PERMANENT
Garrett County Farmers May Have 1t
Ii They Want 1t.

The farmers and pea growers of
Garrett county may have established
permanently either at Oakland or in
Loeb Lynn Heights cannery that will
take care of their product for years
to come if they so desire, is the in
formation coming to The Republican
from the Office of County-Agent Jas.
A. fowler in the communication from
that office which was received by The
Republican Monday morning.
Mr.. Towler's letter follows:
"At a meeting of the pea growers at
the office of the County Agent on Sat-
urday, August 18th, at which time
Mr.. Fooks, of the cannery concern
which operated at Loeb Lynn Heights
during the past few weeks, was also
and paid the growers for the
peas delivered this year.
''Mr. Fooks told the growers that.
after giving the peas a trial, if they
desired to continue growing peas for
canning and would grow acreage suf-
ficiently large enough to justify, he
would establish a permanent plant
either at Oakland or at Loeb Lynn
Heights. He said an acreage of two
hundred acres would Justify this, and
if they would grow 200 Acres or more
he would establish the permanent can
merry in Garrett county.
AT the meeting about thirty grow
ers were present and these signed up
contracts to grow 10S acres. One
farmer contracted to grow 25 acres.
Now, 1O8 acres is only about half of
the acreage necessary to make the
cannery permanent and paying insti-
tuition, hence if there are others who
are interested in this proposition and
will grow peas, get in touch with the
County Agent and tell him how many
acres you are willing to put out Mr..
Fooks must know within the next
few weeks what the farmers want to
do IN this respect. He is satisfied
from this years experience that peas
can be grown here and grown at a
profit to the producer, but he is not
willing to can the peas under the ham
dicap that he was subjected to this
year, and to justify him in putting
up building and installing the proper
machinery he wants not less than 200
acres to start with. He has offered
premium of $500 ton on the Hors-
ford garden pea for another year, and
will furnish the seed for the same that
he did this year, at cents per pound.
'Those who delivered peas this year
are apparently we'll satisfied with the
results, as practically everyone has
agreed to increase their acreage an
other year.
st is now up to the farmers entirely
II they will agree to grow the re-
CURED acreage, the cannery is an as
sured thing; otherwise, it is not.
Those who are interested should see
and interest others and have them re-
port to the County Agent at once.
