medicine in many GASES is all that is

why Secretary Lansing was no longer

1t may be that the President has only

BRYSON ENLOW.

Bryson Enlow, son of A. p. and
Mae Enlow, of Elder, this county.
died at hospital in Uniontown, Pa,
February 18th, 1920. He had just re-
covered from an attack of influenza
when he was stricken with appended
tbs. Though he came through the
operation in good condition and his
father, who was with him thought
he would recover, yet owing to the
effects of his former illness. which had
greatly weakened him, he passed
away on Sunday. The sorrowing faith
er accompanied the remains home on
Monday, and after services at the
home of his parents at Elder on We'd
nesday the body was laid to rest in
the Thayerville cemetery. He was a
model young man, having joined the
Baptist church when quite young.
Some two years ago he left his home
and went to Uniontown where he en-
tered the employ of coal company.
He proved himself to be honest and
industrious and was promoted from
one position to another until at the
time of his death he was holding a
very responsible position in the COM
pany, one of the head men of which
came from Uniontown to attend the
funeral, bringing with him two beau

A TRICK ELECTION LAW.

Among the bad election laws en-
acted at past session of the Mary
land Legislature, apparently to the
intent and purpose of accomplishing
partisan advantage, is that provision
in the states electoral system which
obliges voters moving into the state
from another state to make a formal
declaration before a court or before
registration board full year in
advance before such newly affiliated
citizens can even register as voters.
This trick law, for it is nothing else
but a trick law, has worked unfairly
In every city and county of the state.
A bill introduced by Speaker Tyd-
lngs in the House, and which has
passed the House and been sent across
to the Senate, proposes to eliminate
Hartford county from the provisions
Of this declaration intent law. The
reason for the exemption of Hartford
county is that the gun-proving
grounds and the Government devel-
opments have brought a large new
voting age population to the county,
which is likely to be kept as a perm
anently disfranchised contingent un-
less the law is repealed.
Upon a smaller scale is there a
corresponding disfranchised con-
tingent in Garrett county. There are
many men who have lived in Garrett
county for five years or more and who
are taxpayers who have not become
voters because of this blockade law.
Inc average man turns thought to
voting only when an election is pend
ing. A citizen who has come from
another state cannot register as a
voter, even though he may have lived
IN the state ten years, unless he shall
have complied with the trick law
about making formal declarations of
his purpose to become a citizen of the
state year before he applies for
registration, while upon the other
hand, he may have a son, born in
another state who accompanied his
parent to Maryland, and becoming of
age after his residence here, may reg
lister and vote, while the father, a
good citizen and taxpayer, is dis
1ranchlsed and may remain so for the
remainder of his life if the vicious
law is allowed to remain upon the
statute books.
